I think most flagship phones do that now. Myotorola edge has Desktop and Streaming modes. But back in the late 2000's this stuff was amazing.

You'd be surprised. My last phone (OnePlus 6T) had USB-C but was a 2.0 port in disguise with no extra capabilities beyond what USB 2.0 could already do.

But for what it's worth, I buy new phones every 5-6 years and always buy them used + a couple of generations behind, so what's new to me might have been around for awhile. I simply remember being able to connect a Samsung phone to a TV long before I could do that with any other phone brand.
