I used a Samsung device with DeX and a lapdock as my sole PC for a year. It was...challenging. I expect that a first generation "desktop experience" on Android from Google would have issues, too.
I also have big concerns about Google's invasive new ad platform which monitors your browser history to serve you ads, and how integrated it also seems to be to apps which use Chrome on Android.
All that said, I'd probably still be all-in for a Pixel that becomes a ChromeOS device when plugged into a monitor.
Pixel with a Dex-like environment could be amazing since it would likely mean GrapheneOS would get the features too and therefore be private.
