I have been covering similar features for 10 years now. While everyone somehow cheers hard about them on paper, in practice their usage is non-existent. Convergence is not gonna happen, users do not seem interested at all in this type of crossover use-case. Samsung and Motorola’s solution have been around for a while and they’re a testament to that. Lenovo now has even a feature that lets you have access to a Windows 11 Cloud PC via ThinkPhone if you’re a business or corporate user. The use case scenario is there, but apparently it’s just not as compelling to actual users as it seems made out to be. That’s why Apple is not gonna allow anything like that to happen on an iPhone.
