Samsung DeX turns the Galaxy S8 into a miniature computer, priced at $ 160

Samsung's multimedia dock allows you to attach a larger screen and accessories to this Galaxy flagship, but the Android interface will not be cut off. This dock is called Samsung DeX.

According to GSMArena , this dock looks quite small and compact, suitable for carrying. Overhead is the tilt bar to hold the phone at a fixed angle. DeX owns a standard HDMI port, two USB 2.0 ports and a USB-C port for charging. In addition, it also allows you to use biometric authentication on S8 to log on to the machine.

In fact, the Samsung software interference is completely there. When you connect to the Galaxy S8, you will find a fully customizable desktop interface, not an extended Android interface. You can also run multiple applications in different window sizes, just like on a PC.

Samsung is also associated with many other companies to help make the software work better and smoother. The source said Adobe has optimized the Lightroom for this accessory, so you can also edit RAW images more conveniently on a large screen and use the mouse, keyboard to control.

You can also use a virtual Windows on it. A desktop control application will help you use the Microsoft Office suite as a full push guest. This is the best part you can take advantage of and combine with the phone application. For example, you can reply to messages without interruption. You can even make a phone call and when you return to your desk, applications will automatically be restored.

The Samsung DeX software is optimized for a 1080p screen, 16: 9 aspect ratio, via HDMI connection, but you can also connect to other high-resolution displays. The Galaxy S8 will use DisplayPort to deliver video data to the dock, but it does not appear to support DisplayPort displays.

DeX will cost about $ 160, approximately 3.6 million.
