June Feature Drop: New features and upgrades for the Pixel portfolio
The June Feature Drop brings updates to make your phone more helpful and adds safety features to Pixel Watch.
DisplayPort Alt Mode via USB-C: finally. This is the biggest missing feature from my Galaxy S9 that I wanted on my Pixel 8.
I haven't tested it personally, but I think GrapheneOS (easily the best Android OS for Pixels, in my opinion) has had it for Pixel 8s since the end of October 2023. Here's a quick guide I saw: https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/9775-pixel-8-desktop-mode-guide-and-personal-experience
I have no idea if I'll ever use this, but it sounds like a great feature.
I'm hoping for a Pixel Tablet 2 with this (Pixel Tablet doesn't have it, but the Pixel 8 does for some reason) and MTE security capability, and I'll transition to that with GrapheneOS over a laptop.
