Hello, I have recently installed Arch on my desktop machine (KDE). I want to access android device (MTP) from terminal. The device is accessible from file manager (Dolphin). This means it has to be mounted somewhere (right?).
No. MTP is not a file system. There are some pseudo file systems that could mount it, but obviously with limited functionality (after all, it's not a file system). mtpfs ([1]) seems like an obvious choice, but I have never used it, so I don't know if it even works. As others have said, Dolphin accesses it via the kio framework. [1] https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/mtpfs/
