Google Search Console has a new report dedicated to evaluating Page Experience criteria on the desktop versions of webpages.
This report can help you prepare for the launch of the page experience algorithm update on desktop, which will begin rolling out in February and finish at the end of March.

The desktop report can be accessed from the Page Experience tab in Search Console, directly underneath the mobile report.

Aside from Mobile Usability, the page experience update on desktop is built using the same ranking signals as the mobile update.
