When the March Pixel Drop started rolling out to the Pixel Tablet along with Android 16 QPR3, the one feature that caught my eye was the new Desktop Windowing experience. This promised to be a glimpse into the future of Aluminium OS and Android as a desktop PC environment, but there was one big hurdle along the way: the touchscreen.
As much as I like swiping and gesturing, a proper desktop experience requires mouse and keyboard support and needs to be flawless from day one. So, to get a feel for Android’s desktop future, I started looking at Bluetooth keyboards and mice for my Pixel Tablet. For less than $50, I found the answer, and now that I have, I can’t believe I waited this long.
