Last week Samsung announced the final dates of the new Linux on DeX feature which would allow users to run Linux on Galaxy phones using DeX.

The feature is still in beta and is under testing but the folks at XDA Developers managed to get their hands on the latest beta APK of DeX. The DeX beta APK will support Galaxy S9, S9+, and Galaxy Tab S4, and is freely available for testing till December 14. The APK contains a customized version of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

If you’re interested in trying out Linux on DeX then you can head to XDA or download the APK from HERE. The current version of the APK is 1.0.38.
