Samsung’s new Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ have an impressive list of features and features. For those who still want to do more, the company announced the Galaxy S8 Dex Dock. It’s a neat accessory that turns an already highly capable Galaxy S8 into a desktop-like experience.

So what is Samsung Dex and what does it offer? Here we’ll explain why it makes the Galaxy S8 the perfect phone for the on-the-go, business user or mobile professional. This is what you need to know about the Dex dock. Watch the hands-on video and read on for more details.
On March 29, Samsung introduced two new smartphones. Bigger, better and faster Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus. It comes with a large set of 5.8 and 6.2 inch Infinity displays with almost no bezels. Both phones are powered by Android 7.0 Nougat and have features like water resistance, microSD slots, USB Type-C and 3.5mm headphone jack.
As the phones’ April 21 release date approaches, buyers will be looking for all kinds of accessories. We’ve detailed some of the best cases, some durable screen protectors, microSD cards, and more. But one of Samsung’s most exciting official accessories is the Dex Dock.
It’s nice to use the big 5.8 or 6.2 inch screen for editing photos and videos or surfing the web. But what if you could transfer all that power to a monitor to do more? This is what it offers. Additionally, Samsung has partnered with companies like Microsoft and Adobe to offer a powerful set of tools and apps built specifically for Dex.
Better still, the Samsung Dex slot will be available from the end of April and will be priced at $149. It’s a small price to pay if features and capabilities pique your interest. With all that said, here are the basics of DeX and what to expect.
