Phones are kind of a mess and it seems PCs are far more secure/anon vs even graphene on a pixel. Drives aren’t very easily backed up or even cloned. Software is limited on mobile or needing flashed or rooted. There’s a lot to a phone that could be easily solved by a tablet/2 in 1 or Micro PC with SIM capability for phone replacement if size could be slightly larger. Working or doing much if anything even on a 6.7in screen is not that good Samsung Dex was awesome but not quite the same. So I’m willing to go larger. It would be nice to go from phone usage to gaming power. But be able to add multiple internal SSDs slots as USBs are just slower and finnicky fiddly.

But it seems PCs are leaps and bounds more capable. And SIM capable 2 in 1s are the middle ground. Which would be a better daily driver for anon and security? Convenience when on the go without sacrificing processing power as least as possible.

What about a central PC setup that you carry everywhere? Having access to running VMs, servers, all on the go. Not a laptop but similar to an micro ITX or Intel NUC.

AR mirroring PC glasses would be what I really want. The hardest part is a convenient mouse keyboard setup for times like laying in bed at night. There’s so many devices things get cumbersome to do and process all the time chargers, peripherals, cables, OS types. So I was wondering what are some other peoples perspectives on this type of thinking and solutions.

Its actually seeming like a device to cast or transition screen size is most convenient. Say from AR, to TV, to monitor, or phone sized easily without always cabling in to change.

    Whatever I plan to run is going to be Linux based that’s a must.

    I’m unsure what a GPD is but I am about to look into it. Edit: GPD looks perfect, I didn’t know this existed. I’m gonna see what specs I can nail down. I was thinking of building a micro PC with a full desktop capabilities. Like a 3.9l case with micro ITX or so and just running AC mostly, with battery backup on low power when on the go.

    Cloning graphene like clonezilla isn’t possible. I have created backups and played with device settings. Capturing a complete carbon copy backup is not possible to my knowledge which seems to be the most ideal given the nature of security around graphene. Now writing everything to an external drive except for the OS could probably be done but you would have to be connected all the time to a USB or cable of some sort.

    SSD enclosures look awesome I didnt know this existed lol I’ll definitely be swapping out my flash drives for one of these as long as there isn’t any cons vs say 1 tb flash drive far as performance. I’m unsure how it’s going to perform without being connected to the motherboard slot vs USB. But this is a decent middle ground I suppose.

    I am wanting full PC capabilities just in a small daily package similar to a phone but I’m willing to ditch the phone for say a 2 in 1 or ideas??
