Upgrade your day-to-day
Everyday projects, errands, and tasks are about to get a major upgrade. It turns your smartphone into a daily dashboard, so you can bring more of your life with you without having to lug a laptop.

Two screens at once
Take multitasking to the next level. In the app mode, you can take a closer look at things like videos, artwork, and documents on a larger display while still using your phone as a phone. Watch movies on the monitor while checking texts, or take a call while reviewing documents without breaking your focus. With Samsung DeX Desktop, you have two screens to do twice as much.

Looks like a tablet, acts as a PC
Work and play where you like with the tool and your tablet. A tap of the Quick panel switches to DeX mode, allowing you to use your tablet just like a PC. Open multiple windows, drag and drop, and right-click for more functions. Productivity has never been so mobile.

Bring Samsung to your computer
A simple USB cable unlocks the app on your computer. Easily drag and drop files between devices, or use a mouse and keyboard to get even more done on your PC and Mac.

Take it to the big screen
Many apps you use every day are optimized to work naturally as you switch between screens. Go from MS Office Suite to Adobe Sketch or a web browser to YouTube. You can use them on your device, then enjoy them even more on a bigger display. With your favorite apps on Samsung DeX, you'll get things done in no time, and with an even bigger view.

Work smarter and easier
Seamlessly go between the office and your home, picking up where you left off with the Microsoft Office Suite on the program. And see your partners better with videoconferencing on a large display.

Get your games on
Upgrade your entertainment by playing and watching on a bigger screen. Pull up your favorite mobile games or stream the big game to see even more of the action.

Create when inspiration strikes
It’s simple to sketch and take photos with your phone, but full-scale drawing requires a bigger canvas. So sketch out your ideas on the way to the office, then check the details and make edits with Samsung DeX once you're back at your desk.

Browse the web, PC-style
Switch from watching TV to surfing the Internet with an easy move. Plug your phone into your TV to shop online, read the news or watch YouTube as if you were on a computer.
