I had this dream in 2010 (not literally a dream, just a notion) that someday, we’d replace desktops with phones… like, sit down at a desk, attach it to a dock, it would connect to a monitor, mouse and keyboard and you could use it like a desktop PC. I suppose we could already do that, other than that the software would still be phone apps not made to be used with a mouse or for the most part a landscape screen.
i have a feeling stage manager support with be the flagship iPhone 16 pro (ultra?) feature
I have been using this for actual years at this point (S21 Ultra)
You’re describing Samsung Dex
Doesn’t count until apple makes up a word for it.
AirDesk.
This only encourages my theory that apple is going to release their own game console (or beefed up microconsole Apple TV refresh?) and mobile is the first step to test interest
They wouldn’t be going so hard with AAA publishers and pursuing graphical fidelity (ray tracing) if they weren’t
I would shocked if apple tried breaking into console wars.
I’ll even be surprised if any of the handhelds other than steamdeck + switch survive the decade.
Why wouldn’t they just make a service on the phone and then a controller to play it?
I can already remote play games on Xbox and ps5 with my iPhone. With a Bluetooth paired controller and display port output wouldn’t the essentially be 95% of the way to a cool steam-link type device?
i thought it was usb 2.0 speeds
Those aren’t contradictory. DP is via connection to GPU using the high speed lanes and the 2.0 USB is from the A16 chip, which was designed with USB2.0 over lightning in mind from my understanding.
But it will be hobbled by Apple to 640x480x16 colors because “copyright protection” or somesuch nonsense.
