Samsung together with new models Galaxy S8 to Galaxy The S8+ also introduced a stand called the Samsung DeX Station, which can turn your mobile phone into a full-fledged computer. Together with Microsoft, Samsung created a special interface for Android, which is very similar to a graphical interface Windows. The phone connected to the Samsung DeX Station can use a keyboard, mouse and monitor, which are connected to the stand and you then control the phone like a classic computer. You can also use all the applications and games you have on your phone on an external monitor and control them with a keyboard and mouse.

If you think DeX is too similar Windows and there could be a lawsuit from Microsoft, then you are wrong. It was with Microsoft that Samsung developed the stand, although of course it is still about Android. At the same time, switching the system itself looks very easy. All you have to do is connect the keyboard, mouse and display to the dock, and then just insert the phone into it. Of course, it also charges at the same time and the graphical interface switches within a few seconds Androidalready on the phone to DeX. Applications that you are used to on your phone can be found on the monitor as classic shortcuts on the desktop or you can also find them in the menu, which is located in the same way as the Start button on Windows.
Applications open in windows and you can have an essentially unlimited number of them running side by side as long as the phone's operating memory is sufficient. Applications can be maximized, quit or minimized. In addition, Word, Excel and PowerPoint are reinstalled directly in DeX, which basically correspond to the version of Office 360. If someone calls you, you can talk via handsfree or the built-in speaker. You can reply to sms and other notifications directly in the message application, but using the keyboard. The price of the pad that turns the phone into a computer is €150.
