I plugged my iPhone 16 into my usb-C docking station the other day to charge it and was pretty surprised to discover it just started mirroring my phone screen. Keyboard worked too!
It depends on the app — mirroring is the default, but apps can do smarter things as well. See for example the NYT crossword app.
