Samsung DeX
Samsung DeX turns a Galaxy smartphone or tablet into a kind of desktop computer, with windows, a taskbar, a mouse, and a keyboard.
What does Samsung DeX mean?
On a smartphone, DeX starts as soon as you connect it to a monitor or TV. On a tablet, it can be turned on directly on its own display.
Apps then run side by side in freely movable windows. For emails, texts, and spreadsheets, this replaces a laptop on the go. Not every app is adapted to the windowed view, and only selected Galaxy devices support DeX.
A general explanation of the term, not from a video. How it plays out on a specific device in everyday use is covered in the reviews below.
