So plugging into a phone charger is recommended. Samsung smartphones over a certain spec and under a certain age (2018 onwards, approx).Įxtra power drain on the phone as the screen's always active, even if not lit. Most recent Android phones - non-Samsung devices will need a download from the Play Store and won't have the 'app streaming' feature. Windows executable from the Samsung web site, the phone is plugged in using USB and talks directly to the windowed DeX desktop. ![]() Windows executable in the Microsoft Store, phone pipes information through over Bluetooth (and the Cloud). The best way to compare Your Phone and Samsung DeX for Windows is in a table: ![]() a multi-window environment is itself running in a window in a different OS's multi-window environment! All a little meta, so do see the screenshot examples below, etc. Whereas Your Phone passes through selected phone content to a desktop application, DeX for Windows runs - as it sounds - in a window (or full-screen) under Windows and your phone is in full control of the contents, running DeX-compatible Android applications in a windowing desktop environment within Windows itself. Although the DeX experience is essentially identical, the purpose and point of the exercise is very different. all talk of DeX on this page is in regard to Dex for Windows and my conclusions may be different from DeX when used with a lapdock like the NexDock Touch or a simple monitor/hub set-up. ![]() So be warned and take usual precautions if you attempt this! although I mention Mac above, I did try installing Samsung DeX for Max and it was a complete disaster, involving a reinstallation of the OS.
