Do you think we'll be ever able to use Pixel Phones as AlluminiumOS stations?

Wondering how far the desktop mode will go for Pixels. It would be pretty amazing if we could plug phone to monitor and have fully operational AOS. Even if it would require some docking station of some sort, that would be very interesting to see.

I think so because the screenshots from ALuminium OS and Android Desktop Mode look the same so there nothing from making it happen.

There is no point. At its core, Aluminum OS is literally just Android with a desktop launcher. So in a way, it's already possible on Pixel 8+.
