Use screen cast. But the casting not instantaneous.

Best is still HDMI.

well your monitor has to have the tech to receive BT and convert it to display and also the bandwidth or data rate of BT dun think can sarpork high resolution and/or low latency so BT currently isn't used for wireless display and wifi is preferred me thinks?

Attach a dongle to your TV/monitor then your laptop connects wirelessly. Quite laggy IMO, watch movies the sound and video need to manually sync iirc.

Don't have, even if it will be very horrible to use.
Cuz BT bandwidth is very slow so your image will either flicker or very slow that
you think your PC got problem.

Depending on your laptop model, some laptop have docking station.

That docking station is where all your cables are connected to, Monitor, mouse etc.
If you need to remove the laptop just disconnect the USB-C cable and that's it.

Bluetooth won't have another bandwidth to carry your video signal...

Wired is always best.

You can get wireless HDMI though. Connects to your devices HDMI ports.

Less than $100 for a pair. About 50m line of sight. Sometimes can go through walls depending on thickness and yr home RF environment. Both need to be powered though, usually can be powered via USB as they take about 5w each. And they can run pretty hot so have it well ventilated. These usually have the least latency.
