Since i learned about Dex maybe 2 years ago, i have been using the function as mobile laptop, i use it privately but also for work. Just so much nicer than carrying around a laptop, doing teams meetings, general office apps like powerpoint and excel and ofcourse mail correspondance on my phone. And i am even using the old Galaxy S9+ for +3 years now. And my biggest issue is memory space because i run dual simcard, and then i have no room for additional sd card. Instead i now got a small ssd drive i use for space when needed.
Randomly clicked onto this video while I was researching Samsung Dex and I thought I was watching a video made by a channel that has 100k++ subs. Only after watching the video that I realised that it has only 700 subs?! The content and quality was so good and complete that I had no idea it was coming from a small TH-camr. Really enjoyed the content and keep up the good work sir!!!
Wow Jaden, you made my day! Thank you so much; the intention is always to make good quality even if it is lesser. I truly appreciate you sharing this thought.
Man, I am a techy iPhone user and have always LOVED this feature. Every time a Samsung friend of mine comes over, I show them this and they brag. Always wanted it. Great video!
Always love this kind of feature a lot. While it doesn't completely replace my Windows desktop, I always use it when travelling light. The fact that I can always connect it to the hotel's TV using an HDMI cable and have a PC-like experience from the bed is an absolute solid win.
Hi Faris, so true. That is exactly how I have used it in the past as well. Just carrying a mouse and a USB c adapter to Hotels. Removing their set top box wire and attaching.
Its the most underated feature on Samsung honestly. Its just amazing. Why other phonemakers dont do it, i dont know but its the future!! Im a light user and dont need a stand alone desktop,my phone is my desktop.
One major advantage of wireless dex that is worth mentioning is that you can still use your phone as usual while someone else can play in dex mode on the monitor.
You mean it will be virtually two separate devices ? For example, you can use your phone for call or message and you use it as computer in monitor as well ?
One of the main reasons I moved to Samsung with a S22 ultra 12 gb ram , I m able to use it for my work as if I was in my windows laptop and on top of that I can use the smartphone independently. It's just amazing.
Where Samsung Dex shines is in tablet form factor. I use a Tab S6 Lite (2022) which has Dex support and that has significantly balanced my reliance on my bulky Acer Nitro. The only time I use my laptop is when gaming or heavy browsing. Rest all is singlehandedly managed by Dex 😃
When Nokia N8 was released ~2008, it use to come with HDMI adapter to mirror on TV and to me that use to feel really cool. *I miss that stardom* Since then I thought that mobile companies stopped developing that functionality. Nice video!
I didn't know this, that N8 came with an HDMI adapter, interesting. But DeX is so much more than mirroring, the multi tasking feature with upto 6 apps opening at the same time is very cool and allows productivity which is impossible on a mobile device form factor.
@@TechTakeaway regarding the multitasking, can you have multi desk as well ? Like Mac and windows ? For example you will have two desktop and each has six task, totally will be 12 task at the same time ?
More like deliberately Disabled it. Both soft/hardware level. Also I do rem wondering what the extra "charging" like port (mini HDMI) on my Android smartphones that I had used in the past was actually used for.
I'm going to buy an s20+ for two reasons. Dex and SD cards. I was going to go with an iPhone 14. Then I saw Dex and it just makes sense as I will use it like that a lot!
2 questions 1. If the hub with HDMI is connected to the device does it also charge the device? 2. In case if i am connecting to a virtual desktop and want to use the headphones which has a USB connector, connecting to the same hdmi hub will solve the issue? I have posted this question on multiple videos but have bit able to get an answer Looking forward for a response on this one
In ten years time, people will be coming back to this video to reminice about the times when they used to use a laptop AND a phone, instead of just using their phone for everything, and DeX is just the beginning...
I can see how everyday consumers will actually do that Tom, may be even lesser than 10 years. But there is will always a niche, who will need more power for Professional tasks and will still depend on something more.
@@tomzpl portable screen I got 16' portable monitor for 300 (mostly used for servers etc, but it has hdmi and USB c outputs.) if people are creative enough everything is possible
Awesome video! I've been using Dex since I first got my S20 and it works awesome for me on my new S22. I mainly use it for playing Fortnite Mobile but have used it for browsing and many other projects as well, it is a very underrated Samsung feature which needs some proper marketing! I'm currently using a 4K adapter USB-C - HDMI, BT keyboard and mouse plugged in to it, and a Samsung M5 Monitor, works so well together. You have a new subscriber in me, keep up the great quality!
Thank you Flash :) Do share, if there are any additional benefit of using the Samsung Monitor. A few people actually have asked me about it, but I don't have one available to test it out.
Hi Phillip. Glad you enjoyed it. Apple is more interested in selling a Mac to us than letting iPhone become a Mac or pc. And I think if they implement something like this now, then it will happen for iPad first, as iPad has the same M1 chip powering it.
I've been using DeX mode on the Tab S8. It's okay, but if Apple added it to the iPad it would be better by default. Apps wise and overall workload thanks to ios's perfectly tuned experience out of the box. OneUI isn't there yet.
True! Hopefully, in WWDC this year, there are some overlapping apps between Mac and IPad OS. Both iPad pro and IPad Air now have m1 chip in it. So it might actually happen this year.
Here is my setup for Dex:Galaxy s10e with 256 gb storage,dex station,wired ethernet,laser projector with 10 foot screen,100 watt bluetoorh karaoke speaker. I also have a wireless printer scanner, a software defined radio dongle that can receive anything,an android tv over the air tuner called pad tv,and a portable dvd drive which also records. This system really can do anything and dex works very well on a large screen. I had roku, but I unhooke it and just use the phone now because dex really can do so much more, anx I can still watch roku shows on the roku android app.
Best review on DeX I’ve seen. Would love to see more on doing work things e.g. how easy is it to edit big PowerPoint files, do email, access things from the cloud … is 128GB enough … and so on!
Had got NexTouch. Barely used after initial testing. battery wouldn't charge morethan 1% when I actually started to try it out. Out of the box charger was also faulty. Also Not sure if it would stand the time for multiple Phone upgrades. I can already see screen corners slightly blacking out with gradual increase. APPROPRIATE replacement spare availability is a concern considering long term usability that product declares But the idea is definitely awesome.
i think samsung should let u use dex on the fold 5 within the inner display instead of connecting a external display that would be cool also i know it would be small but still pretty cool making the use of the fold 5 display
Loved your video, I'm starting to make DEX my main work computer(as a lawyer, Mostly Microsoft Word and internet browsing) but It still lacking some security measurement like a USB token we have to connect to our Courtroom online services or the ability to sign documents(though I can go around using Adobe PDF solution)
This is the old BlackBerry Blend; the exact same technology. In fact when I briefly researched it, it took me to the BlackBerry/Samsung partnership in rolling out new tech. I used to use blackberry blend ( was so sad when it came to an end) but nice to see it on Samsung.
What a pleasure it is for me Swagoto! 😍⭐️ it has been a journey since last 6.5 months and super joyful to interact with people around the world & share what I am passionate about. Thank you!
I have the Z fold 3, whenever I hook up my phone to my monitor to use Dex, it doesn't charge my phone. Does your phone charge when you connect? Awesome video!
Hi Chris, the monitor power will never charge your phone in Dex mode. If you are using a USB C adapter and it has a power input then you can use that to continuously power your phone. But if you are using a single USB C to HMDI cable directly, then unfortunately there will be no way to power the phone while using Dex.
@@TechTakeaway Does the adapter also work out for NOT charging the phone from monitors that have got enough power to charge the phone when connected directly with a single USB C cable ? ty

Yes absolutely, or even try out VN Video Editor which I have shared in the video. You will find a lot of good features there, exactly like how you would on an iMovie software on Mac computer or even more.
Phones are mini PCs now. We need more manufacturers to do something like dex, all that raw power is going to waste if all you’re doing on a phone is taking photos, TH-cam and social media.

Hi, really intrigued about using the DeX after watching your video. I believe you're from India. So can you please guide me about the hub that I can use to connect the wireless keyboard mouse or I can charge the phone while using the DeX just because my monitor won't support wireless cast or type-c display?
₹4500 hub ₹2500 BT KB ₹15K Full HD Touch Enabled Portable External display with battery Together covers almost the price of my NEXDOCK already Got em in a convenient clamshell form factor too. Check out the new wireless one.
Been using Galaxy Note 8 for years, that thing effectively replaced my laptop as my works revolve around typing documents. My only problem until now is the a small dead pixel but that's it.
Hi Asafyy, I have shared a similar response before hence sharing the same info here It is a mix bag of things. Magnification in Dex mode is disabled, but increasing Mouse size is available. Large and darker font option is available but it did not really change much when I picked it. I am placing some screenshots of what you would see when you go in Dex mode and see these options. drive.google.com/drive/folders/1FFnTEewGMX5BMoTA_xuwuUNTJmGsnDdR On the phone setup there isnt an option to increase app and icon sizes. I cannot say with certainty for the TAB. Hope this helps!
Thank you sir so much Sir . But one request. If you can recommend a best USB C port compatible to Samsung Galaxy S 22 Ultra,I will be very grateful . PLEASE HELP. Thank you !!
On behalf of all the rough Gadget users including BREAKERs n MIS-Placers, I Wishfully await these features to be feasible and available on budget kings rather than flagship killers so as to truly experience Mobile PC without having torn pockets by replacements or repairs
Brotip for gaming: switch off your phone's screen. It uses a lot of power and therefore generates heat. You'll have considerably less heat and throttling problems.
New subscribe from a fellow small TH-camr, but your content is very good. One small info, when I connect my phone in dex mode and connected Xbox controller it is operating in phone screen, instead of shifting to monitor screen, any help here will be appreciated
So sweet of you Kalani to leave this message. It is a start, just since 7 months. And I am still learning, so hopefully metrics and all will do better after few more months. Right now I am just glad to recieve messages like this 😊
I have a waterproof touchscreen monitor on the outside on my boat wich is now connected to a Windows PC in the cabin by VGA and USB, i can operate the PC/Windows from my touchscreen monitor. Can i connect a Samsung tablet with DEX to the monitor? That would allow me to operatie navigation apps that aren’t available for Windows. Thanks in advance! Nice vid by the way!
Hi Guido, what a fabulous use case for Dex. Yes certainly by connecting Samsung tablet to external display you will be able to do that. Hopefully your monitor has HDMI input, as Dex will only get activated when it is on HDMI connector. And as Tablet will have bluetooth built-in you will be able to connect any extensions like keyboard, bluetooth speakers etc.
@@TechTakeaway Thanks for the fast respons. In the manual i find the following: inputs: VGA/DVI/HDM. So it says HDMI. However the cable harness of the device (brand unknown since its a custom HMI interface) comes with an VGA and USB wire and some other old-school video/audio wires. Now there are adapters for VGA/USB to USB C or HDMI but the question is: will it work?😅
@@TechTakeaway That’s the strange thing, there is no manufacture on the device and the manual other than type: ‘FX 8” high brighteness monitor’ but i cant find anything. But if i connect a Samsung DeX device to the Windows PC it might work.
Yes, you are right. With the Dex app for windows it will certainly work. All the best, if it does work then do DM me on twitter and share a pic, will love to see. techtakeaway_tw
Great video buddy. Recently got Nexdock 360 and I am never going back to traditional laptops etc. I have twitted to Sundar Pichai to enable a desktop mode in Google devices. You are absolutely right, that's the future. I rent out VM in Azure when I need to edit heavy videos. I have a permanent free Ubuntu machine in Oracle cloud . This is the future. Look forward to your awesome videos.
You can actually do some fairly heavy video editing right on the phone with LumaFusion, KineMaster, or PowerDirector. LumaFusion is arguably the best one and it's actually optimized for DeX. With all due respect, please don't repeat the classic mistake that many others make by thinking "it's just a phone". The phone is very powerful, about as powerful as a midrange laptop with premium integrated graphics. You shouldn't need any assistance from the cloud unless you're doing very heavy stuff.
Can you make one test for me. I em low vision pearson and i use talkback. I use android magnifier when i need larger text or image. How will be with DEX. When you use dex option with external tv or monitor, support magnifier on tv when is dex mode? I just use iphone directly with hdmi to tv and i watch youtube video. For other i can not i can not see on tv. I have on my pc magnifier with voice. But android i dont have on computer. Soo i wish use android with my big tv. Thank you very much.
Dear Saten, it is a mix bag of things. Magnification in Dex mode is disabled, but increasing Mouse size is available. Large and darker font option is available but it did not really change much when I picked it. Talk back feature works normally just how it does on the phone in Dex mode. I am placing some screenshots of what you would see when you go in Dex mode and see these options. drive.google.com/drive/folders/1FFnTEewGMX5BMoTA_xuwuUNTJmGsnDdR Hope this helps, and thanks for reaching out!
Stick with a normal screen. The wireless function (which would mainly be what you'd like to do on Dex.) IS as delay as crap. Might as well buy a cheap normal monitor and fork for Microsoft's Miracast dongle. You'd get faster performance and picture decent for way cheaper. I still have a old Miracast from Microsoft and it's WAY better on the HDMI then on the M5 cast itself in speed.
Great video. I am a long-time Apple user and bought a Galaxy Tab S6 Lite to try DeX out before investing in the S8. Only one problem, I can't connect my Samsung Smart TV to run it. I can mirror but when I hit DeX, I get a onscreen message stating that it cannot do it. I'm on latest software. Any ideas on how to solve the problem, please?
Hi Yanik, DeX is available on Galaxy S9, S10, S20, S21, Note8, Note9, Note10, Note 20, and Z Fold series phones, and Galaxy Tab S4, S5e, S6, and S7 series tablets. As S8 is not supported hence you aren't able to do it. What is surprising is that you are getting an option for Dex
Hi Owen. Yes, Note8 does support it, but Samsung Galaxy S8 doesn't support it. In my revert to Yanik, I did mention that Note 8 is supported. It is interesting that you prefer it on Note10. Is it because DEX performs faster for you on Note 10 than Note 8?
@Tech Takeaway The 1UI4 and Andriod 12 on the Note 10+ fixed many of the Andriod 9 and 1UI1 problems on the Note 8. A faster processor doesn't hurt as well!
Hi! Not that bad but the controller passage is kinda misleading u can really connect every bt controller but !!! The cod mobile supports only ps and xbox controllers and even other games work the same way... ps ; try out clipstudio it works on dex and u can even connect wacom tablet for drawing.
me sucede algo con dex, si a un video le doy full screen la imagen del video no esta centrada del todo, o sea: de la parte de arriba esta pegado al filo de la pantalla del tv (eso esta bien👍). el problema es a los lados y abajo, se ven bordes negros 😕
Since i learned about Dex maybe 2 years ago, i have been using the function as mobile laptop, i use it privately but also for work. Just so much nicer than carrying around a laptop, doing teams meetings, general office apps like powerpoint and excel and ofcourse mail correspondance on my phone. And i am even using the old Galaxy S9+ for +3 years now. And my biggest issue is memory space because i run dual simcard, and then i have no room for additional sd card. Instead i now got a small ssd drive i use for space when needed.
That is so cool. The idea of using SSD for space with Dex must have opened up so many opportunities. Thanks for sharing
buy an external usb port to connect some hard drives.
me myself never use my internal storage for my Dex, hard drive is the best option.
Was on it in 2018, then replaced it with a proper computer
Is there any way to default DEX storage to an external one automatically when it is connected.
There are two huge issues with using Dex, one of those is the resolution which I am able to get only 1080p, 2K is being greyed out.

Been using Galaxy Note 8 for years, that thing effectively replaced my laptop as my works revolve around typing documents. My only problem until now is the a small dead pixel but that's it.
I'm struggling with finding the USB type C hub which is compatible with Samsung. Any recommendation?
I just bought the tab s8 is there a way to enlarge icones and text on the tab s8 on dex mode?
Hi Asafyy, I have shared a similar response before hence sharing the same info here
It is a mix bag of things. Magnification in Dex mode is disabled, but increasing Mouse size is available.
Large and darker font option is available but it did not really change much when I picked it.
I am placing some screenshots of what you would see when you go in Dex mode and see these options.

On the phone setup there isnt an option to increase app and icon sizes. I cannot say with certainty for the TAB.
Hope this helps!
Thank you sir so much Sir . But one request. If you can recommend a best USB C port compatible to Samsung Galaxy S 22 Ultra,I will be very grateful . PLEASE HELP. Thank you !!
Great videos and editing!
☺️👍
Mentioning Connection compatibility difference between VU n other TVs is appreciated
But a little taken aback for you to not have reviewed MOTOROLA READY FOR. pls do. Maybe a comparison as well
I use DEX when I am travelling , using the hotel smart TV as the display
On behalf of all the rough Gadget users including BREAKERs n MIS-Placers, I Wishfully await these features to be feasible and available on budget kings rather than flagship killers so as to truly experience Mobile PC without having torn pockets by replacements or repairs
I recommend using AndrOpen Office for Samsung Dex over Microsoft Office. It works and looks much better than Microsoft's offering.
Thanks Paul, will check that out!

Awesome video and insights!
Brotip for gaming: switch off your phone's screen. It uses a lot of power and therefore generates heat. You'll have considerably less heat and throttling problems.
New subscribe from a fellow small TH-camr, but your content is very good. One small info, when I connect my phone in dex mode and connected Xbox controller it is operating in phone screen, instead of shifting to monitor screen, any help here will be appreciated
Can I install Capcut desktop on Dex?
i know this video is old, but can you present ppt like pc on dex mode?
Hi. Does anyone know any hub/dock that supports PPS so that usb pause delivery can be used during dex?
why do you only have 600 subsribers?
ur vids r amazing >:)
So sweet of you Kalani to leave this message. It is a start, just since 7 months. And I am still learning, so hopefully metrics and all will do better after few more months. Right now I am just glad to recieve messages like this 😊
I have a waterproof touchscreen monitor on the outside on my boat wich is now connected to a Windows PC in the cabin by VGA and USB, i can operate the PC/Windows from my touchscreen monitor. Can i connect a Samsung tablet with DEX to the monitor? That would allow me to operatie navigation apps that aren’t available for Windows. Thanks in advance! Nice vid by the way!
Hi Guido, what a fabulous use case for Dex. Yes certainly by connecting Samsung tablet to external display you will be able to do that. Hopefully your monitor has HDMI input, as Dex will only get activated when it is on HDMI connector. And as Tablet will have bluetooth built-in you will be able to connect any extensions like keyboard, bluetooth speakers etc.
@@TechTakeaway Thanks for the fast respons. In the manual i find the following: inputs: VGA/DVI/HDM. So it says HDMI. However the cable harness of the device (brand unknown since its a custom HMI interface) comes with an VGA and USB wire and some other old-school video/audio wires. Now there are adapters for VGA/USB to USB C or HDMI but the question is: will it work?😅
Wow that's a tough one, I will have to test it out on some kind of that adapter to test. Could you share the name of the exact monitor?
@@TechTakeaway That’s the strange thing, there is no manufacture on the device and the manual other than type: ‘FX 8” high brighteness monitor’ but i cant find anything. But if i connect a Samsung DeX device to the Windows PC it might work.
Yes, you are right. With the Dex app for windows it will certainly work. All the best, if it does work then do DM me on twitter and share a pic, will love to see. techtakeaway_tw
This video was great 👍
Thank you!
Hi, may you please try sim racing with samsung dex. Thanks
Internet conneect seprataly or work on phone network?
Nice video
Thanks Ziyaad!
Great video buddy. Recently got Nexdock 360 and I am never going back to traditional laptops etc. I have twitted to Sundar Pichai to enable a desktop mode in Google devices. You are absolutely right, that's the future. I rent out VM in Azure when I need to edit heavy videos. I have a permanent free Ubuntu machine in Oracle cloud . This is the future. Look forward to your awesome videos.
You can actually do some fairly heavy video editing right on the phone with LumaFusion, KineMaster, or PowerDirector. LumaFusion is arguably the best one and it's actually optimized for DeX.
With all due respect, please don't repeat the classic mistake that many others make by thinking "it's just a phone". The phone is very powerful, about as powerful as a midrange laptop with premium integrated graphics. You shouldn't need any assistance from the cloud unless you're doing very heavy stuff.
Glad to see people getting on to Nex Docks:)
Can we use old printer in dex
i completely agree with unwise man!! but though video is good !!👍🏼
Haha, thanks Khush!
Does the Capcut application support?
Can you make one test for me. I em low vision pearson and i use talkback. I use android magnifier when i need larger text or image. How will be with DEX. When you use dex option with external tv or monitor, support magnifier on tv when is dex mode? I just use iphone directly with hdmi to tv and i watch youtube video. For other i can not i can not see on tv. I have on my pc magnifier with voice. But android i dont have on computer. Soo i wish use android with my big tv. Thank you very much.
Dear Saten, it is a mix bag of things. Magnification in Dex mode is disabled, but increasing Mouse size is available.
Large and darker font option is available but it did not really change much when I picked it.
Talk back feature works normally just how it does on the phone in Dex mode.
I am placing some screenshots of what you would see when you go in Dex mode and see these options.

Hope this helps, and thanks for reaching out!
I can't get my S24 FE connecting to usb-c on Scepter Kado, is the fe the part that doesn't have ucb-c alt mode?
Any thoughs about reviewing the samsung Dex environment on the M5 and M7 smartmonitors from samsung?
Hi Augusto, I wish. But I would have access to these monitor yet. May be sometime later.
Stick with a normal screen. The wireless function (which would mainly be what you'd like to do on Dex.) IS as delay as crap. Might as well buy a cheap normal monitor and fork for Microsoft's Miracast dongle. You'd get faster performance and picture decent for way cheaper.
I still have a old Miracast from Microsoft and it's WAY better on the HDMI then on the M5 cast itself in speed.
Could you share the link too verify exact product. Would like to try with my MIRACASTless NexDock lol
Can i use apps like adobe ,after effects,capcut like apps in it
It was really helpful bro
So just 8 months ago this channel had 700 subscribers, now over 100k???! How? Just how?
Excellent video!
Great video. I am a long-time Apple user and bought a Galaxy Tab S6 Lite to try DeX out before investing in the S8. Only one problem, I can't connect my Samsung Smart TV to run it. I can mirror but when I hit DeX, I get a onscreen message stating that it cannot do it. I'm on latest software. Any ideas on how to solve the problem, please?
Hi Yanik, DeX is available on Galaxy S9, S10, S20, S21, Note8, Note9, Note10, Note 20, and Z Fold series phones, and Galaxy Tab S4, S5e, S6, and S7 series tablets. As S8 is not supported hence you aren't able to do it. What is surprising is that you are getting an option for Dex
@@TechTakeaway I have the Tab S6 (Lite), I am only considering the new Tab S8.
@@TechTakeaway DEX is also available on the S8 Note. I own 1 and use DEX on it every now and then although I prefer it on my Note 10+.
Hi Owen. Yes, Note8 does support it, but Samsung Galaxy S8 doesn't support it. In my revert to Yanik, I did mention that Note 8 is supported.
It is interesting that you prefer it on Note10. Is it because DEX performs faster for you on Note 10 than Note 8?
@Tech Takeaway The 1UI4 and Andriod 12 on the Note 10+ fixed many of the Andriod 9 and 1UI1 problems on the Note 8. A faster processor doesn't hurt as well!
Are you able to use the middle mouse click through the TeamViewer on Dex
Hi! Not that bad but the controller passage is kinda misleading u can really connect every bt controller but !!! The cod mobile supports only ps and xbox controllers and even other games work the same way... ps ; try out clipstudio it works on dex and u can even connect wacom tablet for drawing.
Hi Roman, thanks for clarifying on controller compatibility for COD.
Will try out clipstudio!
Apparently, you don't need to be on the same network for this to work since Dex uses Miracast technology. You just need to be in the same room.
By the way, I'm using my Note20ultra with a "nexdock" It's essentially a portable KVM and its its also touchscreen :)
You earn my sub
I truly appreciate 🙏 ❤️!
Can we use VDI on the DEX ?
I use Dex on my Samsung Galaxy s22 Plus 💪
What about the video streaming apps like Netflix, Hotstar and Prime Video? They work on dex or not????
Well-Done
Great video, thanks
Is it possible to connect 2 monitors is s24 ultra?
Great video
On dex mode can i use google chrome webstore for add extension in browsers. I really need to before purchase a monitor. Thanks
me sucede algo con dex, si a un video le doy full screen la imagen del video no esta centrada del todo, o sea: de la parte de arriba esta pegado al filo de la pantalla del tv (eso esta bien👍). el problema es a los lados y abajo, se ven bordes negros 😕
Hi, which application are you using for playing the video, on which this problem is occurring
Btw does something like Dex also available for iPhones? 🤔
Hi Sahil, no, not at all !! That's the fun, and Samsung seems to be underplaying this so much.
Hey, when I connect Dex through my USB cable, I don’t get an option of my phone as a track pad. Can you help ?
Thanks .. 😊
Always samsung ❤🎉❤❤
