Linux phone as a external monitor


Can we connect a phone to a monitor and work with it in the office? Are there any reliable and open source phones?

I came across this new Linux phone. What really caught my attention is that since a major fix was made by the Ubuntu Touch Pixe 3A team, they have made a phone called XFone that will support external monitors with their phone.

Additionally, SageTea is highly passionate about open source software. they say it has adopted open source software as one of its highlights. So users can actually examine the source code, make tweaks, and even develop the software themselves.

I'm tired of commuting to the office every day with my laptop on my back. I hope I can commute with such a phone soon.

Depending on the Android phone used, it is possible. https://red-dot-geek.com/connect-and...ernal-monitor/
