Samsung DeX can now run on your laptop without a DeX dock

Samsung DeX allows users to enjoy a PC-like experience when they connect their smartphone to a larger display. Samsung today announced a big upgrade for DeX. First of all, you don’t need a special DeX accessory like DeX Station or DeX Pad.

With a simple, compatible USB connection, you can now drag and drop files between your PC and your Galaxy smartphone, access phone apps in multiple windows for seamless multitasking and more. This feature works in both Windows and Mac. With compatible apps including Microsoft Office suite, you can even use a mouse and a keyboard, while keeping their data secure on their phone through Samsung Knox.
