How does this relates to the submission's "Desktop View"? Genuinely trying to find the connection.


The desktop view is for larger screens, it is somewhat similar to fordable phones.


The screen of foldable phones is still smaller than most tablets, and there’s a reason iPads offer something like Stage Manager for (larger) external screens (disregarding for the moment its janky implementation). Meaning, the screen size of foldable phones doesn’t change that much about the usefulness of being able to connect to a desktop-size screen.


I have the huwai xt fold, folds out to a 10.3 inch screen. I remote to a windows 11 computer and can do full development on it with a folding keyboard with builtin trackpad


Isn't harmonyOS supposed to be a fully convergent operating system too? I have no perspective on how the device works though, I've been very interested does it run that? Will it have Linux containers?


That's great, but still hugely different from working on a 24"/27"/32" desktop monitor.


I've come to my senses since but it is quite enjoyable to use MANY monitors. One with the website, one with the css, some article about css, mdn, youtube, mail, irc, etc. A single giant display is also something entirely different.


It at least has similar down sides -.-
