It appears that the Pixel 8 series does support DisplayPort Alternative Mode but you will need to root your phone as it is disabled at a software level.
Modern-day phones bringing support for display output is definitely something that I think more brands need to look into. Today, we have learned that the Pixel 8 series does have support for DisplayPort Alternate Mode, which is also known as DP Alt Mode.The Pixel 8 series can support DisplayPort Alternative Mode, but you will need to root your device.
What this means for the Pixel 8 phones is that these devices are capable of transferring DisplayPort signals and broadcasting video to external display devices like a TV or a monitor with just the help of a USB-C connection.
Now, the interesting bit here is that Google has mentioned that the Pixel 8 devices do not have DisplayPort connection support, which is strange considering how there is a way to make this feature work just fine.
So, what exactly is going on with the new Pixel 8 devices? Well, it turns out that the feature is enabled by default.
