There is also NVLink c2c support between Nvidia's CPUs and GPUs that doesn't require any copy, CPUs and GPUs directly access each other's memory over a coherent bus. IIRC, they have 4 CPU + 4 GPU servers already available.

Are you sure? NIST says there should be a space:

Just FYI, Dex is really fluid on flagship devices.

Not sure if this was a serious response. But tethering kills battery life on your phone, which especially sucks if you are travelling.

xps 13? Comes with linux and has comparable battery to m3 (at least on windows).

This review says it beats M3 by 2 hours: https://www.tomshardware.com/laptops/dell-xps-13-9350-review
