I have one that has hdmi and usb as well so I can use my phone in desktop mode on a monitor, then I use parsec to get in my VM and I have access to a full desktop experience
For others considering this, keep in mind that not all phones support external monitors, they need specific hardware for it. Pretty much all Samsung S phones support it, Pixels do not. So check if your phone supports external displays before you buy any hardware!
Getting a USB dock instead would probably get you both charging and Ethernet.

Google added external monitor support starting with the Pixel 8. So, yeah… Most don’t support it, but newer ones do!
