INTRODUCING THE SAMSUNG DEX STATION

2017-05-23

The dock device that turns your Galaxy S8 into a viable desktop computer. Samsung DeX lets you connect your Galaxy S8/S8+ to a monitor, keyboard and mouse for a desktop experience powered by your phone so you can turn any place into a workplace. Enjoy comfortable typing and access key shortcuts, including Ctrl + C/V and Alt + Tab. Other handy PC features you can use include Right Mouse Click, Drag and Drop, Zoom in/out and Scroll.

1-  Connectivity.The dock supports various ports, Ethernet and HDMI ports from the back, a USB-C port for a charger and two USB 2.0 ports. Bluetooth connectivity to a mouse or keyboard is via the wireless adapter in the Galaxy S8.

2-  Communications.
Even when docked in the DeX, the Galaxy S8 remain connected and can send and receive phone calls and texts, but the phone's screen is inactive and all input is via the mouse and keyboard. Users can switch a live call to the phone screen without being disconnected by simply removing the phone from the DeX.

3-  Power.
The unit is powered by the Galaxy S8 or S8+ USB-C charger and, due to the amount of work demanded from the phone, comes with a built-in cooling fan. Devices are charged while docked in the DeX, which supports Adaptive Fast Charging (AFC) technology.

4-  Accessories.
The DeX is just the dock. You need to add a monitor with an HDMI port and a wired or wireless mouse and keyboard. Supports Bluetooth and RF wireless devices that need a USB RF dongle.

5-  Compatibility.
The DeX is only compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+. It has a USB-C connector, which is not backward compatible with older Galaxy S-series since they have micro USB ports. The dock adjusts for the different sizes of the Galaxy S8 and S8+.

6-  Incredible portability. 
The DeX Station features compact, stand-type circular design, only 105.2mm in diameter and weighs at 230g. With its practical design, it is easy to take with you, wherever you need to go.

7-  Enjoy a desktop experience. Samsung DeX provides you with what you want from a desktop experience: a big screen, a full-size keyboard and a mouse. 
Just plug your Galaxy S8|S8+ into the DeX Station to use apps, review documents and set or check notifications on a desktop interface.

8-  Be a powerhouse of productivity.Some tasks are just easier on a desktop display, like sending an email, bolding text, or copying and pasting between apps. 
With Samsung DeX, it can be done with a click of a mouse or a punch of a key. Work in multiple documents at once and shift between apps more easily.

9-  Local Files.Avoid creating duplicate files through unnecessary upload and emails to access from other devices. With Samsung Dex, you’re using the files already existing on your device.

10-  Secure folder.Keep sensitive information safe in a folder that require an additional password.

 

This is the New Samsung Dex that converts your mobile experience into a desktop experience in just seconds. Don’t forget to download Microsoft office so you can access on your desktop when docked.
