Can you use the phone's camera, mic, motion sensor, fingerprint reader, cellular network like a blast?

If yes please let me know!

What do you mean? We are talking about connecting an android phone to a Linux PC, right? What do you expect to do? I can send file, clipboard, use phone to remote controle the PC (slide show, media playing), I can use a virtual keyboard on android that get input from the PC keyboard,I can have android notification on PC and the other way arround, I can even use the phone SIM to send SMS from the PC and other stuff I almost never use.

I don't know if I can use the phone camera as a webcam for the PC or to scan QR code, would be neat.

Not sure whatelse you want to do with fingerprint and sensor.

I mean upon connecting the two machines they should became one. Whatever the phone can do now the PC can do and vice versa. I could use the fingerprint reader for authenticating just like on the phone. Or extend the screen to the phone screen, etc-etc.

But more importantly it should be trivial from the user's perspective. I understand almost all of it is possible somehow but imho it shouldn't be kde specific feature.

And please don't take it personally, I'm glad it works for you it's just an ongoing rant from my side.
