I would love the child of a Surfacebook with a Framework laptop; or A bare keyboard attached to a screen, that I could plug my phone (possibly running Phosh) and use it as a hardware for a laptop experience

    Back in the day there was a phone called motorola atrix 4g, they made a lapdock for it that let you do this. There was also 3d party company that made lapdocks for modern Samsung phones that support Dex, but I’m not sure if they’re still aournd.

        Plus if you just want to sync data there are already plenty of cloud based and data syncing services that can fulfill that without needing a phone laptop.

        That said with USB C based devices in theory you should be able to use use an adapter in order to plug in an hdmi, and mouse and keyboard(or use a bluetuth one)
