Great Video as usual @Thao! Speaking of Video Editing I was wondering if you've given "Alight Motion" a go? I actually find it better than After Effects! Please do a video on it in dex mode? Pretty Please?
Samsung should pay you for advertising this feature more than they do!! Seriously, an overlooked major feature people neglect when considering the phone's price. Most people with a recent samsung flagship don't even know this is possible
Lol This is true Samsung do some amazing things with their phones (and laptops and tablets) but if no one "hypes" them in the tech space, they abandon them and try to ape whatever randomness Apple is mesmerizing the masses with
Bixby is universally hated but it has SO MUCH potential for what it can eventually become if they stick with it. But each new flagship phone is a potential axe for that feature. Variable aperture on the 9 and 10 series, a game changer that would have GREATLY benefited the Ultra's recent camera problems.... And don't even get me started on their amazing Nex series of cameras that they just up and abandoned one day
Dex is my only desktop, has been for 2 years. In a few years, Samsung will have refined it and it will be a part of everyone's life. Thanks to Thao for helping the early adopters slog through the growing pains.
I want to use it as my main working tool With my tab s7+ but i dont know, not being able to have 2 separate screens at the same time or not being able to mark text at word f.e. really turns me off at the beginning, or not being able to use the right click.. maybe im just dumb but i think those basic features arent existent for dex
It's good for normal tasks but it still can't replace a pc for working professionals like software, web or app developers.. But i like it so i am gonna get the S8 for the dex setup..
Chrome is still more common. I really enjoy Dex. And use it when I can. I love the idea of using my phone as the computer. I can't wait for other programs to catch up on this platform!
Nah, she's not blindly loyal to Samsung, she actually criticizes their wrong doings and doesn't hesitate to use Apple's alternative offering if it's actually better.
🤣 iJustine reviewed the Razer Hammerhead tws, didn't fit them in her ears properly then stated they were light on bass, which gave the impression that original airpods have more, absolute joke.
Tip: If your second screen does not scale properly when used with Dex, make sure you enable the "Autostart when HDMI is connected" option under Advanced -> Samsung Dex as this forces the secondary screen to be the main one and the tablet can then be used for either user input or a second screen. Hope it is clear ;) Thanks @Thao Huynhy for the vid.
Additional work around for more Word/Excel/PPT open at the same time. If your files are on OneDrive, you can open them on Office Online in the browser (kinda like Google Docs but Microsoft). You can have up to 5 open at the same time I believe.
I really appreciate you for actually using a tech not just talking about it. You can immediately see from your videos you work with the tech you review. Dex is great I hope Samsung keeps it going for a long time. Being able to use my phone for more things is really making the £700+ price tag less of a pain
Samsung Dex is amazing I'll never go back to Windows if I don't have to. I've been using the Galaxy Tab S6 and never looked back on a Windows machine for anything great video👍
Now Samsung needs to copy Sony's power bypass mode, so we won't be constantly charging and discharging the battery as the phone gets powered directly via cable. Very useful feature that dex must have. Let's hope Sammy plays like Apple and (re-)invent power bypass mode into note devices.
A Nexdock has reverse charge. Plug in to connect Dex and it charges the phone! Makes a portable set up easy with a blue tooth mouse. If not, carry an hdmi-USBc cable to plug into a monitor, a charging source to the monitor, Bluetooth keyboard, bluetooth mouse and wait for your phone to run out of juice.
Had a galaxy tab e that did not charge when connected to a computer. Not sure if the feature was intentional or some kind of bug but it definitely was pretty useful for me
With wireless DeX and Nexdoc, add a Miracast dongle and all set; although the wireless option doesn't solve the charge question. I like the option of either with the Nexdock Touch and a mouse with the Note 20 Ultra 5G, or a good ol' cord.
@@huntercon610 so what happens in my experience is that the Note 10 plus doesn't charge fast enough on dex mode to outweigh the consumption rate, so your battery kind of stays stale and very slowly discharges. But one easy way to figure is to touch your phone to feel how hot it is, and if you want to geek about it you can download the Accubattery app. 👍 Still Sony's battery mode powers the phone while bypassing the battery, so you should see some battery decrease every so slightly, but the temperature should remain fairly low and not go over your charge/discharge cycles like mad 😁
Nexdock and UperfectX have a lapdock made for Dex. It's just the shell of a laptop, with a 2-in-1 design so that you can fold it all the way back as a tablet or in presentation mode. They have backlit keyboards, well designed track pads, sleek and light bodies, great displays, and obviously touchscreen displays. You just plug the phone in and go. They have decent battery life that can last on and off use for at least a day for me personally. 10k mAh for one and the other one is a bit better. Just got the uperfectX one yesterday for my note 20 ultra and this is a game changer for sure.
Yep. I paired a NexDock 360 with my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra specifically so that I can use my smartphone as a software development environment (Termux within which runs a Alpine Linux virtual machine within which I run Docker, tmux, vim, nodejs/mpn/npx, etc.). If I want a larger screen, I connect the smartphone to my HP Z38c 37.5-inch Curved Display Monitor via USB-C cable.
@@0x007A nice dude that's sick. I haven't been using my s22 ultra as much with mine lately, bc I've been on site and my tab s7 has been more useful paired with my work computer but I still love my uperfectx
Always a good review. I have a Note 10 plus, which I haven’t set up yet. My S8 plus I used a Dex a bit for 2yrs ago, but it looks better now. Especially as my work is based on google docs too, Thanks Thao, this is the reason I subscribed.
At 1:30 the fix is to grab Sound Assistant (by Samsung) and enable the option Multi sound and select All Apps. I use my phone like that all the time. I have to manually pause other audio sources to listen to just one (like focusing my attention from Spotify to TH-cam)
Thao is really the kind person that Samsung thinks of when they created this in depth features. All reviewers do nothing but complain about the complexity of Samsung's interface while Thao here really understands and uses these surprisingly helpful features.
I just recently discovered Dex and now I use it almost daily. This is truly a game changer for me. I love that I can connect this to my work laptop and use it to work on my personal files, email and text messages. Absolutely love it.
@@PowerMechGuyTechMasterEarl Unfortunately. WP was a good balance between freedom to do what you want (android), and the reliability of apple. Also fully integrating with the Windows OS you were already using was great. Now we just have software on Android and Apple that only does part of what we want and have to use at least two OSs to get the job done. The last flagship windows phone was basically a full laptop (though running on ARM), all they had to do was put a good x86 emulator on it, and it would have run existing Windows software. That would have been amazing. Mobile apps have their place, but the real work happens on a PC. It would be nice if there wasn't any separation. In theory Android can get there, and there are some good apps, but more are crippled compared to the PC equivalent.

Your Dex videos are the reason I can actually use Dex the way it was meant to function! I would have never been able to figure out all the little tricks. Keep em coming! Dex is amazing! P.s.- you're cute 😉

I'm using Tab S6 as my main computer. For working from home I connect it to UW 34" monitor. Getting my stuff done with no problem. If weather is nice outside. I get tab s6 and portable monitor outside. Dual screen setup in the garden. Super !
I've been following you since last year. I really like what you do, you think in a simple and objective way. Keep it up, you have all my support. Greetings from Argentina ññ
Aw! You too watched that guy travelling places. I watched him visiting Madagascar- zibu meat, special madagasy rice, and that groundnut roll that is boiled for three days. Awesome!
I love DeX! In addition to the productivity value proposition, gaming COD mobile with a GLap controller on Dex external display is like gaming on a console. Entertainment on the big screen is just epic and if you get messages on your phone you can reply with minimal interruption to your entertainment.
76,000 views in 3 days! Wow! Yet I'm not surprised. Thank you for your incredibly amazing videos. I appreciate the important information you provide and enjoy how encouraginging you are.
That tip about being able to run multiple instances of Word and Excel by having Office (which I had) and individual copies of the apps (which I THOUGHT I didn't need since I had Office installed) was a stroke of pure genius!
I watched a 30 minute reveiw on the S8 Ultra and the guy didn't know how to take it off of screen mirroring in Dex mode. You just showed me how to get the mouse over to my tablet. Thank you!
I DO NOT EVEN HAVE DEX, BUT I STILL FOUND THIS VIDEO INTERESTING!!! I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT GETTING A GALAXY NOTE 10 + AND I AM INTRIGUED BY THE DEX FUNCTION!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!
As someone forced to work at home and not having a desktop computer, using my Galaxy Note as a computer via dex has been more than convenient - I'd say its been more productive than the garbage netbook I used to use for quick spreadsheet work. Honestly paying close to 1000 dollars for this Flagship is justified by how much functionality it has brought to my life as opposed to when I used to use mid range phones
I just got the Samsung note 10 plus and I’m going to be trying dex for the first time I can see smartphones becoming mini PC,S so that all you will need is a monitor or portable monitor so that you don’t need a full desktop
Girl, I'm from Brazil and I love to watch your vídeos about Samsung Dex. I hope that soon we can use Samsung Dex as a first machine without a need to use desktop or notebook.
I used Dex exclusively for 4 months when my only Laptop died. So instead of buying new laptop just bought generic dex station, keyboard and mouse and connected to my TV. I am so glad that my note 9 have this feature ,it was a life saver got tons of work done. But still if possible I would still like to use laptop because screen, keyboard, mouse everything is in one small package,
I just found samsung dex features and capability on my S10+ when I was in collage and oh boy it saved me A LOT.. I remember when I need to make some urgent documents or note ASAP I just plugged my phone to a monitor and creat word documents like a normal pc. All my friends just jaw dropped at that momment XD. Dunno why samsung not revealing dex much in their ads.
So I don't know if you'll actually see this but I use Samsung Dex almost on a daily, and the best app that I have found to use windows on Samsung Dex is an app called SplashTop. Look up what you would be able to do if you wanted to use windows through Samsung Dex on the go with this set-up
I just use DeX with my xps 15. When running DeX on a laptop, it opens as a window or you can run full screen. This allows me to use all features on my phone plus have a full computer if needed. And when I'm at home, I have a full setup that I usually connect my laptop too but if I'm doing just light work or stuff off my phone, I connect my phone. Awesome experience 8)
Thao you’re amazing 🤩 I just discovered your channel, because I was still struggling wether I should upgrade my iPhone 7plus into a Samsung Note 9. You convinced me to switch my whole setup into Samsung. My Note 9 will arrive today ❤️ after struggling with the thought for months, I am ready to break up with apple 🍏 10years of relationship (iPhone, iPad, MacBook, iMac, AppleWatch). Sadly, Apple is just not what it used to be anymore and I don’t see major progress. Just like with any other toxic relationship...you gotta let go and move on ☺️
It's been said hundreds of times already, but you're good at this, please do more. Thanks for this video, Samsung should be paying you! They have a great concept here that soon others will catch on to and perhaps surpass them, steal their lunch. You're a brilliant presenter.👍
I've been using Dex on my Note 9 for over a year now. I rarely touch my desktop anymore unless I need serious computing power (e.g. creating architectural models on Sketchup, creating composites for video editing). When I get home, I just slap my phone onto the dock and I can do all my web browsing, TH-cam, word processing, basic image editing, and other light workloads. The multitasking experience is surprisingly decent considering my Note 9 only has 6GB of RAM. It's also convenient having all of my stuff on the phone and I just use OneDrive or Dropbox when there are files I need to sync over with my Windows PC. The 400GB micro SD on my Note 9 is quite sufficient.
I have the S4 LTE and note 10plus and I took for my work the s10e and on all of them DEX . S4lte as default And my 2 phones plugged in my 2 screens at work haha and I have my laptop sadly just because some prob won't on the company VPN. Now waiting the s7+
So it's possible to Use the Tab S6 as a bigger portable Screen. I need it more for Screen Mirroring my Note Display. Has anyone experience with that Usecase ? Best Regards
With my new s7+, I'm stil configuring my set up options. It's so helpful when you show multiple accessories & apps in use. In particular I find the stands & keyboards worth researching . When you mention an app , my instinct is to begin the download process. I cannot express how helpful You have been. Just as valuable and pleasing as finding a hidden gem! ... p.s.: Does Samsung even know about how talented you are? After buying so much of their stuff, I feel like an investor and you got my vote for marketing CEO.
Great video. I'm waiting for the note 20 and I will try out the DeX experience then. Im still rocking the S9 plus. I love Samsung products and innovation. This is a really big year for Samsung. I really wish they took their time on the S20 Series of phones. Battery life and size, camera system and the 120 refresh rate. Take care and stay safe Sister.
Amazing vid as per your usual. The Sound Assistant and the Mouse pointer are life savers. I have been using DeX as my main PC since the launch of the S8 and haven't looked back. Keep these videos coming. You ROCK!!!!
Honestly I'm loving it, I'm don't own a PC but I got my self a sweet gaming monitor for a good price at Costco and now I just slap my samsung s20 to it and boom I can take care of papers with Google docs, jump into zoom meetings no problem. I do use Bluetooth headphones and wireless keyboard and mouse. Like I said loving it
The best TH-cam experience of all to me is using via Samsung Internet on DeX mode. No kidding. I use DeX as my computer about a year now. As you refer in the beginning, there's something in simpler computers that can boost productivity. They're more... straight I guess.
I have been using dex and my note 10+ through my laptop or desktop. My laptop is older and getting time to replace. I think I may try your setup. I love it!
My Samsung TV doesn't have a headphone jack or bluetooth, so I was bummed I couldn't use my Galaxy buds+ or even old wired headphones with it when I felt the need. Recently, my S9 got wireless dex support, which is pretty great! Now, I can use dex wirelessly over my TV and change the audio input to my buds when I feel like it! Gotta say, using the galaxy watch as a wrist-mounted remote has always been one of my favorite things in using dex for media. After getting a PC, I realized I could even start up dex through windows just by plugging in my phone. Even though I've got plenty of ways to access it, part of me is still a little bummed that my new Tab A7 doesn't have dex support itself.
Hi Thao, Thank you very much for your video. I find it very informative. Samsung Dex is a very useful tool. I must mention that I started using it after watching one of your TH-cam videos. You do a great job. KEEP GOING👍
Great~! I am also a Samsung DEX user. Those tips mentioned in the video are great. I do wish more tips will come and make Dex is really an alternative working platform for light computing user. Thanks.
Few things not mentioned here: - If your screen size is bigger than 10" you cannot use excel or word for free and have to pay subscription to microsoft(Around 7 eur per month). - Chrome browser cannot be forced(Without root/ or making some major changes) to use desktop mode. That is the reason samsung Internet browser is freaking amazing in this field as it will detect the mode you need automatically.
Im loving my experice with Dex using my Tab S6 and your tips are incredibly helpful. Best thing about it is that you are a Switch player as well!! Looking forward to more videos.
I use Dex on my PC with two monitors. I can watch local OTA channels from my phone on one monitor while doing work on the other monitor. Also I have a Smartthings hub with camera by the door. I can watch that camera live if expecting someone while working on the other monitor.
it's actually very helpful videos she provides.. i'm trying to ditch my slow laptop to Dex i'm just waiting to receive couple pieces for my DEX station
I can’t get google to not force the docs app to open when I want to use the Samsung browser for it. Love your videos! Learned about life, creativity, and tech! ✨
Awesome vid Thao!!! I don't use Dex because I don't really use Samsung devices that being said hats off to all the amazing things Samsungs desktop mode can actually do. I'm seriously like blown away! I really wish other OEMs give a desktop mode a try. Also skillshare is great, personally taking some mobile photography classes 😁

I love DeX! In addition to the productivity value proposition, gaming COD mobile with a GLap controller on Dex external display is like gaming on a console. Entertainment on the big screen is just epic and if you get messages on your phone you can reply with minimal interruption to your entertainment.
This the only reliable channel for Samsung Dex tips and tricks.
76,000 views in 3 days! Wow! Yet I'm not surprised. Thank you for your incredibly amazing videos. I appreciate the important information you provide and enjoy how encouraginging you are.
Hey Thao, great video. Thanks for the Sound Assistant recommendation, didn't know it and solved my issues with multiple apps playing at the same time.
That tip about being able to run multiple instances of Word and Excel by having Office (which I had) and individual copies of the apps (which I THOUGHT I didn't need since I had Office installed) was a stroke of pure genius!
I watched a 30 minute reveiw on the S8 Ultra and the guy didn't know how to take it off of screen mirroring in Dex mode. You just showed me how to get the mouse over to my tablet. Thank you!
I like the way she says “Thao here”
I DO NOT EVEN HAVE DEX, BUT I STILL FOUND THIS VIDEO INTERESTING!!! I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT GETTING A GALAXY NOTE 10 + AND I AM INTRIGUED BY THE DEX FUNCTION!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!
Using Samsung Internet instead of Chrome with Dex is a total game changer. Thank you.
I appreciate the time and effort you put in. Quality videos! Big fan Thao
As someone forced to work at home and not having a desktop computer, using my Galaxy Note as a computer via dex has been more than convenient - I'd say its been more productive than the garbage netbook I used to use for quick spreadsheet work. Honestly paying close to 1000 dollars for this Flagship is justified by how much functionality it has brought to my life as opposed to when I used to use mid range phones
I just got the Samsung note 10 plus and I’m going to be trying dex for the first time I can see smartphones becoming mini PC,S so that all you will need is a monitor or portable monitor so that you don’t need a full desktop
Awesome tip! The sound assistant actually solve my problems.Thank you so much!!
You're my main source when it comes to Dex. Thanks for sharing, cheers from Brazil! o/
Girl, I'm from Brazil and I love to watch your vídeos about Samsung Dex. I hope that soon we can use Samsung Dex as a first machine without a need to use desktop or notebook.
I used Dex exclusively for 4 months when my only Laptop died. So instead of buying new laptop just bought generic dex station, keyboard and mouse and connected to my TV. I am so glad that my note 9 have this feature ,it was a life saver got tons of work done. But still if possible I would still like to use laptop because screen, keyboard, mouse everything is in one small package,
I just found samsung dex features and capability on my S10+ when I was in collage and oh boy it saved me A LOT..
I remember when I need to make some urgent documents or note ASAP I just plugged my phone to a monitor and creat word documents like a normal pc. All my friends just jaw dropped at that momment XD.
Dunno why samsung not revealing dex much in their ads.
This woman makes every product appear to be worth buying.
This one is really worth buying
It's nice to see a Vietnamese reviewer, especially female reviewer who makes some really good videos .
Samsung is soo futuristic but underrated
So I don't know if you'll actually see this but I use Samsung Dex almost on a daily, and the best app that I have found to use windows on Samsung Dex is an app called SplashTop. Look up what you would be able to do if you wanted to use windows through Samsung Dex on the go with this set-up
I just use DeX with my xps 15. When running DeX on a laptop, it opens as a window or you can run full screen. This allows me to use all features on my phone plus have a full computer if needed.
And when I'm at home, I have a full setup that I usually connect my laptop too but if I'm doing just light work or stuff off my phone, I connect my phone. Awesome experience 8)
Thao you’re amazing 🤩 I just discovered your channel, because I was still struggling wether I should upgrade my iPhone 7plus into a Samsung Note 9. You convinced me to switch my whole setup into Samsung. My Note 9 will arrive today ❤️ after struggling with the thought for months, I am ready to break up with apple 🍏 10years of relationship (iPhone, iPad, MacBook, iMac, AppleWatch). Sadly, Apple is just not what it used to be anymore and I don’t see major progress. Just like with any other toxic relationship...you gotta let go and move on ☺️
I just found your channel and I can't stop watching your amazing videos. Congrats from Chile!!!
It's been said hundreds of times already, but you're good at this, please do more. Thanks for this video, Samsung should be paying you! They have a great concept here that soon others will catch on to and perhaps surpass them, steal their lunch. You're a brilliant presenter.👍
I've been using Dex on my Note 9 for over a year now. I rarely touch my desktop anymore unless I need serious computing power (e.g. creating architectural models on Sketchup, creating composites for video editing). When I get home, I just slap my phone onto the dock and I can do all my web browsing, TH-cam, word processing, basic image editing, and other light workloads. The multitasking experience is surprisingly decent considering my Note 9 only has 6GB of RAM. It's also convenient having all of my stuff on the phone and I just use OneDrive or Dropbox when there are files I need to sync over with my Windows PC. The 400GB micro SD on my Note 9 is quite sufficient.
I have a tab s6 and I live it. I use the dex mode every time in school and like all my friends is like: wtf🤯
Same 😂
LOL! I have the S5e with the keyboard cover and a Bluetooth mouse. I have never actually been in tablet mode ever; have owned it for a year.
@@sirswede8969 Agree, Samsung just needs to switch to the DEX interface.
I have the S4 LTE and note 10plus and I took for my work the s10e and on all of them DEX . S4lte as default
And my 2 phones plugged in my 2 screens at work haha and I have my laptop sadly just because some prob won't on the company VPN.
Now waiting the s7+
So it's possible to Use the Tab S6 as a bigger portable Screen. I need it more for Screen Mirroring my Note Display. Has anyone experience with that Usecase ? Best Regards
With my new s7+, I'm stil configuring my set up options. It's so helpful when you show multiple accessories & apps in use. In particular I find the stands & keyboards worth researching . When you mention an app , my instinct is to begin the download process. I cannot express how helpful You have been. Just as valuable and pleasing as finding a hidden gem! ... p.s.: Does Samsung even know about how talented you are? After buying so much of their stuff, I feel like an investor and you got my vote for marketing CEO.
Great video. I'm waiting for the note 20 and I will try out the DeX experience then. Im still rocking the S9 plus. I love Samsung products and innovation. This is a really big year for Samsung. I really wish they took their time on the S20 Series of phones. Battery life and size, camera system and the 120 refresh rate. Take care and stay safe Sister.
Omg, as a Samsung gurl, I'm shocked the things you can do. I just use dex sometimes thru my tablet...love it...
Amazing vid as per your usual. The Sound Assistant and the Mouse pointer are life savers. I have been using DeX as my main PC since the launch of the S8 and haven't looked back. Keep these videos coming. You ROCK!!!!
Woooo dex is pretty cool, great content
Honestly I'm loving it, I'm don't own a PC but I got my self a sweet gaming monitor for a good price at Costco and now I just slap my samsung s20 to it and boom I can take care of papers with Google docs, jump into zoom meetings no problem. I do use Bluetooth headphones and wireless keyboard and mouse. Like I said loving it
I've Loved using Dex! It's awesome multitasking on it and using it as a computer. Makes me glad that I have a Samsung phone.
Out of all channels on youtube. This one has probably sold me the most stuff. You need a kickback.
The best TH-cam experience of all to me is using via Samsung Internet on DeX mode. No kidding.
I use DeX as my computer about a year now. As you refer in the beginning, there's something in simpler computers that can boost productivity. They're more... straight I guess.
I have been using dex and my note 10+ through my laptop or desktop. My laptop is older and getting time to replace. I think I may try your setup. I love it!
credits to Thao for exploring the uses of Dex and imagine the possibilities with Dex!
I like the fact you try to make more video about dex even though Samsung not properly advertise this, keep it up
Dex is becoming my dedicated driver. Thx for the tips
My Samsung TV doesn't have a headphone jack or bluetooth, so I was bummed I couldn't use my Galaxy buds+ or even old wired headphones with it when I felt the need. Recently, my S9 got wireless dex support, which is pretty great! Now, I can use dex wirelessly over my TV and change the audio input to my buds when I feel like it!
Gotta say, using the galaxy watch as a wrist-mounted remote has always been one of my favorite things in using dex for media. After getting a PC, I realized I could even start up dex through windows just by plugging in my phone. Even though I've got plenty of ways to access it, part of me is still a little bummed that my new Tab A7 doesn't have dex support itself.
You're a great content creator. I haven't seen Apple based youtubers show so much important information. Your videos are too good. Keep it up!
Hi Thao, Thank you very much for your video. I find it very informative. Samsung Dex is a very useful tool. I must mention that I started using it after watching one of your TH-cam videos. You do a great job. KEEP GOING👍
Thank you thao, as always you post the best content
Kiwi browser is great app for opening desktop sites. Maybe u can use it as an alternative to Samsung browser. Good video as always Thao! Keep it up.
Great~! I am also a Samsung DEX user. Those tips mentioned in the video are great. I do wish more tips will come and make Dex is really an alternative working platform for light computing user. Thanks.
As a religious Samsung Note user, I never tried DeX. Thanks for the info.
Yesssss. Finally a tech person that's not an Apple sheep
This is one of the most helpful videos I've ever found on TH-cam. Thanks for the great info.
Never knew about sound assistant! Thank you so much!
Few things not mentioned here:
- If your screen size is bigger than 10" you cannot use excel or word for free and have to pay subscription to microsoft(Around 7 eur per month).
- Chrome browser cannot be forced(Without root/ or making some major changes) to use desktop mode. That is the reason samsung Internet browser is freaking amazing in this field as it will detect the mode you need automatically.
I'm pumped about Samsung Dex ! Ty for the video
Wow .. that multi sound tip is life saving ! Love your content
Im loving my experice with Dex using my Tab S6 and your tips are incredibly helpful. Best thing about it is that you are a Switch player as well!! Looking forward to more videos.
You're like the tech toober version of José Zuniga with your enthusiasm and dope tips 👌 love your energy!
Great video I loved dex since 2018
I use Dex on my PC with two monitors. I can watch local OTA channels from my phone on one monitor while doing work on the other monitor. Also I have a Smartthings hub with camera by the door. I can watch that camera live if expecting someone while working on the other monitor.
Nobody:
Thao: Let me make videos on Samsung Dex
Just cause its not normally used truthfully in daily life. Great youtube content though
@@jimmyispromo sup Jimmy 👋🏼
it's actually very helpful videos she provides.. i'm trying to ditch my slow laptop to Dex
i'm just waiting to receive couple pieces for my DEX station
Great Samsung Galaxy note 10 plus 512GB great video
Thank you very much Thao! the side by side excel & word screen tips is very useful for me, i can open the double excel page in dex mode now. 😘
You rock, Thao! Thanks for your excellent in-depth reviews and information!
I can’t get google to not force the docs app to open when I want to use the Samsung browser for it. Love your videos! Learned about life, creativity, and tech! ✨
It's nice to see your new video! you're always full of energy!
great video Thao!
Awesome vid Thao!!! I don't use Dex because I don't really use Samsung devices that being said hats off to all the amazing things Samsungs desktop mode can actually do. I'm seriously like blown away! I really wish other OEMs give a desktop mode a try. Also skillshare is great, personally taking some mobile photography classes 😁
Tnx for caring for samsung dex and making videos about it 💙💙
I love your Samsung tips Thao ❤️
Your videos have helped me find the right setup for me for my Samsung galaxy s20 setup. Thanks alot!
