Google's dormant desktop mode gets a big boost on Android 16 Beta 3
Imagine DeX, but for all Android phones
Google’s next major plan for Android seems to be to turn it into a full-fledged desktop experience, but to pull that off, it needs to get way better at working with standard peripherals and displays. Currently, Android’s desktop mode exists, but it’s nowhere near what users would need to ditch Windows or macOS. However, Android 16 is making real progress, especially with how it manages external displays. The latest beta shows some serious upgrades, bringing it closer to the desktop experience we expect.
