Not for nothing, I'm a fan of my early gen xReal air, though mostly for an on-the-go coding use case.

I link it up to my phone, wire up a 60% keyboard and fire up a VPN/ssh. The Galaxy DeX environment is pretty usable for other apps, and a BT mouse can alleviate the goofiness of the "phone as a touchpad" control scheme.

I've used it with an HDMI/usb-c cable from my desktop and it works just as well, though attempting to switch between virtual and real displays through the glasses is headache-inducing at best.

I'd say you accomplish 60% of the effect of the AVP, conservatively.
