I've tried it. I was pretty impressed. I plugged in a USB-C hub with a keyboard, mouse, and monitor and everything worked immediately, even the Windows key on the keyboard.

sadly that "windows" key is what i dont like on Android

I use Moonlight to remote to my desktop. Moonlight on Windows can capture Windows key(and some other shortcut like alt-tab) and redirect to remote machine.

Moonlight on Android can't do that, the dev this is Android issue and can't do anything about it.
