The Pixel 8 series supports display output over USB-C despite what Google says
- The Pixel 8 series supports DisplayPort functionality on a hardware level.
- The feature is disabled in the phones’ software.
- You can root the devices to enable display output over USB-C.
The Google Pixel 8 series is now confirmed to support DisplayPort Alternate Mode, also known as DP Alt Mode. That means the phones have a USB-C port capable of transferring DisplayPort signals and broadcasting video to external display devices over a USB-C connection. The findings were confirmed by Mishaal Rahman, who, with the help of a tester, shared a video showing a Pixel 8 Pro successfully connected to a display.
