- Samsung DEX stands for Desktop EXperience. So I took it literally for 21 days to see what would happen.

We did it! Check out the video of wife switching to S24 Ultra: ua-cam.com/video/StMnzoCnClk/v-deo.html
Lol No idea why this vid popped up on my page but seeing this comment '5 hours ago' as you were making the bet in the video was funny :D
Samsung on top 🔥🔥🔥
I love it how your Korean Samsung executive speaks perfectly good Korean and then suddenly pronounces Samsung in a way that no Korean born in Korea would ever pronounce it. Anyway it didn't take anything away from a very cool video.
Guys, my wife just told me to tell the audience to stop liking and commenting on this video. It's almost at 1k and she's concerned.
It’s too late now 😂😂
Fatality for her
Just pack the samsung for her meanwhile we reach the 2k likes left to 12k
Too late haha
Nah
Also, the fact that Samsung kept adding to Dex, stayed committed to it is what makes Dex good. Enough support. And more than a standalone feature, it's useful for those situations, when you just have your phone... real life-saver
Im still waiting for Samsung make a dedicated OS for dex that support mouse and keyboard in all of the apps including games
@@Meteor-ThunderBears Yeah, I managed to get the keyboard and mouse work on Geo-Force once and couldn't do it again 😂
@@jordanjackson8873 try resetting the cache
yup. i want them to know its very useful, and i hope they won't stop developing it.
@@Meteor-ThunderBears Samsung locking their bootloaders is pretty much the opposite of what the android (and vicariously Linux community) is about are they miles more open than apple? no doubt, but the ability to flash something like ubuntu touch basically isn't possible as of today, of course that could change.
I worked solely with Dex on my Galaxy S22 Ultra for a month and a half after losing my computer six months ago. I work as a Head of Product at an early stage startup, almost all my tasks are in web apps and I ran all of them most without problems. My most-used apps include Figma for collaboration with the Design team, Notion and Confluence for project management, Boardmix for brainstorming (similar to Miro), AItable for database work (like Airtable), and Google Workspace for various office tasks.
I made it through the 40 days. Maybe I reduced my phone's battery life a little, hahaha, but I did it well.
Since that, I often run some tasks with my phone when I can't carry my laptop.
What browser worked best with that?
I use opera, but Samsung Internet works smoothly on dex mode.
If you used it plugged in, your battery is fine. 😂
The fact that you didn't do 24 days for parity sake is blasphemous 😤
HEHEHE
But he’s in pain for too long
The problem with Dex is most of the people who reviewed it are those tech guy who do video editing or graphic design. In real life, the number of people who do video editing/graphic design in real life is just a very tiny portion of it and people are complaining about it. Even I am tech nerdy but I didn't edit video very often, so Dex is more than capable to use for daily life like web browsing and document with office suite.
Well said.
This is the issue with UA-cam reviewers in general (more laptop reviewers than phone reviewers though). They don't seem to realise that 99% of people & professionals have never edited a video in their lives, so endlessly reporting video editing benchmarks is pretty pointless.
I'm a gamer and it's been 1 year since I abandoned my Desktop to use DEX exclusively, I created a gameplay channel, I made my recordings and simple edits and I had no problems. Yes, it lacks some abilities and is not omnipotent.

And as stated, that's more a software problem than an hardware problem, if they implement the right software there would not be any problem, this is where we miss a Windows phone capable of running desktop softwares on an mobile platform
samsung dix.
GIVE THIS GUY A RAISE!
💀
We had a friend from New Zealand visit us here in the Philippines, and at one situation, he was asking for a "pin". So we scrambled to find him a pin, and then find out he was asking for a pen.
Samsung Dikso
he saying it on youtubeee!
DeX totally works for me. I use it regularly since 2019. In fact for almost 1,5 year DeX was my sole computer (my notebook broke, and I didn't buy one until this time passed). I use it for personal and (normal office) work.
The convergence os great, you notice it? All your files always with you, without need of even a cloud. It's there.
Nowadays I'm using Motorola's Ready For (it's very similar). Maybe even better.
Not only this is so informative, the video is really entertaining as well. Love the blooper at the end. Keep this up. Hope to see more of your work.
I need to put more likes just for this Apple HQ vs Samsung HQ part xD
I'm probably not far off from what actually happened 😅
@@thesamuelnamthat scene was hilarious man
Estoy muy seguro que asi paso, no tengo pruebas y tampoco dudas 😆
That was actually really good comedy :D you should think about doing skits like this as a career haha
Apple being apple... Samsung being Samsung. I hate apple. Don't we all?
I have a Samsung tablet, one that's lower end and can't do DEX mode. But, I've enabled most of those features in developer mode. This does not allow for an external display, but it works well enough for multi-windows. I do unix sysadmin work and this is good for 95% of the stuff I need to do. My tablet paired with a bluetooth keyboard and I'm golden.
I use DeX every week. As a teacher, I use it to connect my Samsung tablet wirelessly to a Microsoft hdmi adapter that projects the tablet screen to the digital whiteboard. I present. and run software via DeX and can use the tablet simultaneously to do grading, research on the web (or secretly answer a WhatsApp text). It's working flawlessly so far, but with some quirks. For instance, to redirect the audio output of the tablet to the external display, I need to go to DeX and change the audio destination there, which I couldn't do in normal tablet mode. But once rerouted, the audio is done correctly even if I switch out of DeX mode again. I must make sure to bring a mouse as well as DeX with gestures is a challenge.
I've been using a Galaxy Tab S7 Plus as my daily driver/workhorse since my aging MacBook has a quirk I need to get fixed. It's handled everything I've thrown at it superbly👌🏻 -- the display, speakers, and Webcam are far superior, TOUCHSCREEN (ofc) + Samsung keyboard case + S-pen kick butt, and multi-tasking and battery life are better.
DeX is indeed great, but yes, it has a few occasionally annoying quirks. E.g., no option for portrait mode (that I'm aware of), it "trims" my banking app prior to the true bottom of the displayed info, the tablet won't run Diagnostics in DeX, and it would be nice if DeX could retain the drop-down shade for quick access to settings & notifications (yeah, I'm demanding, I know 😅).
What a pleasure to be a part of this. Video is a banger
your channel is so underrated. you are a hidden UA-cam gem. you have everything everybody wants: Cute family time shots, real world reviews, cute fat babies. I really want to see you blow up. I mean get very popular and financially successful not like a balloon or something.
Agreed 💯%. The balloon thing would still be pretty dope though.
This is like the best tech video I've ever seen for a long while. Informative, concise, amusing. Thanks so much :)
I love your final discovery - you can use the phone for all the things just like normal whilst *also* using Dex wirelessly. That is really mknd blowing. All we need is some greater desktop-like software options. And support for two monitors.
I was just thinking about if they added dual monitor support, this would be insane
how the hell do you only have 49k subs??! Loved the video and your style. Keep it up!!
I had 800 subs this time last year. Thanks man, so fun.
@@thesamuelnam Man, you should have more man
Perfect juxtaposition of humor, consideration, and insight into an intriguing possibility for mobile workflows. Instant sub here, looking forward to seeing how the experiment goes with your wife!
Dude, you have a great vibe and family. I love it. You made me think about the power of dex again.
Full marks.
As a UX designer I do use Figma sometimes on DEX too, its great jus have some issues with fonts, great video!!!!
Comment just for your wife to use Galaxy S24 😂
Get her a Galaxy tab, too.
In on it as well! 😂
Commenting here and my own as well to get the numbers up lol
Exactly
She will finally make her ancestors proud
This is strangely beautiful. I was looking for a video on Dex as I'm considering shifting to android. Not only do you live in sydney like I do, but you also daily a 13 mini and use a heavy duty laptop (rog g14 for me). I think I finally found MY tech guy. Looking forward to more videos bud!
Welcome! Glad you found this family.
switched to s23 from iphone 14 its a whole new world outside the walled garden its amazing
This was awesome ! You're the freshest Tech UA-camr RN ! Such a blast to watch your videos ! Awesome work ! Thanks a lot
So I watched your video on the Xreal glasses. Most of it was stuff I have seen several times.
Than I decided to look up information about Dex.
Again stuff I have written down over the last year. Not much new.
What got me was the last few seconds of your video as well as several moments in your last video.
Your family. The relationship you have with them. Especially your wife. The humor you two pull off together is refreshing.
So with that said I'm going to do something I RARELY do with tech channels.
I'm subscribing.
Keep up the good work bro. 😎
this was the first video i've seen from you and it was very entertaining! I have never used dex, i'm not one that has a need to be working on the go, but it's insane how far it's come and how powerful it is now. I am shocked you were able to do your editing while your kid was playing games.
Just found your channel a few days ago. Keep up the great work!
That skit was gold😂, every video I've seen from this channel has been amazing, time to subscribe😎
I love this guy. Something fresh about how he does his reviews with a humorous twist in and the everyday things that he does with the stuff he reviews is just brilliant. There’s a like and a subscribe to you my good sir, I love your work.
I work in IT, and I often need to move from place to place. There are times when I move without my laptop because I don't expect to need it. But it has happened a few times where I did need it. But since I didn't have my laptop, Dex came in handy and I was able to do more work because of it.
Love your content!!!
All you need is time and you will be the next big UA-cam Channel.
Keep it up.
Bro I really like your vids. Even if I don’t watch it for the tech, I watch it for your jokes and authenticity
Fantastic video man, really good to see some actual use cases rather than just contrived examples
I'm experimenting with DeX these days as well; I don't need some of the heavier apps you require. I'm very optimistic! Thank you for sharing your experience.
I love this guy so much haha. Watching on my s24u. Been a fan when u started reviewing the pixel phone.
i love DEX! i use it all the time as the TV in my room isnt smart, just connect the phone and the thing becomes a full on desktop experience.
Awesome video; many congratulations!
Really appreciate your dedication
Your videos are so good man. Please never stop. Its not just your editing or anything, it's honestly your personality, humor, and specific tech subjects. Dex has definitely came in clutch for me a few times. Hopefully samsung never gets rid of it.
The Korean accent was insane 😂😂
I love this guy! Another great video!! I miss dex so much for me it's perfect can't wait to get it back!
Yo, Samuel. This is the first video I watched from your channel. Very funny, but still informative. I immmediately subscribed.
1K likes and I’ll sell my MacBook Pro, iPhone 14 Pro, iPad Air 4, AirPods, and Apple Watch and go full Samsung/Dex
Just buy the S24 Ultra
I'm a little late (2 months to be exact), but from the looks of the likes on this video, you must be all samsung, lol! Great video!
I love your style of video and sense of humor, you deserve more recognition! Keep it up man
omg i loved your parody and the use of othert language with subtitles. You deserve the monetization for your (or your team) creativity
I love the humor in the video it’s welcoming ❤great content I definitely subscribed after the video
Your wife went “oohuurgh” when you flung that MacBook Pro. 🤣
LMAO 😂
Louder than when in the bed lol
Great video!! Keep up the good work!
I've ever seen the best and the most sincere video. Thank you Samuel.
You are a legend man! Please post more of this stuff!
The best part was the impersonation (Apple HQ vs Samsung HQ). Good stuff @Samuel! Don't loose that sense of humor my man.
Just found you today, love this video. You should be at 1 million subs.
I'm so much inlove with how you make your videos and review tech products. Much love from Nigeria
Dude, I’m studying Korean right now and that skit had me on the floor. I showed it to my group, and subbed. 😂
Here for the wife to abandon Apple
AWESOME video! I haven't messed around with DEX nearly enough. You have a new subscriber.
You can't leave us hanging like this. We need 3 or 4 uploads per month 😁 your content is fire.
I daily drive an iPhone and a Pixel because of the software experience but honestly, I’m really impressed with DeX. It could be a game-changer if Android adopts it natively. Big respect from Japan to Samsung for leading the way!
I think Samsung is South Korean
@@ht_ghaurithe commenter is in. Japan
He is japanese saying his respects to Samsung from japan (i think)
I wish Google did, or at least, Apple actually introduces a "Mac desk" or whatever so Google will take it seriously. I can see this as a replacement for my work laptop and I am currently off galavanting somewhere right now and using my S8 tab+ to do work on the go . I don't deal with heavy graphics and such so it's ok. I also use Kiwi Browser for google extensions (I need some for work like the okta rockstar app) and I can work pretty well with it. Really awesome what Samsung has done. My only problem is I need to buy a new phone but I do not want to spend money on Samsung pricing at all but they made me want to stay in their stupid ecosystem. Geez, it's either Apple or Samsung with their bloody traps
@@sonofage If apple did that, Yeah sure the experience and workflow would be great but it won't be free 😌
Hi Samuel! Thank you for all the great videos! Really great to see no nonsense and real use cases. Not related to the video, but I was wondering what software/workflow your wife is using on her iPad?
She was using pro create. Thanks for the support
Super love your videos man! Keep it up! Road to 100K!
Great content man! This is the stuff I love to see and pay UA-cam for 👌
loved the blooper at the end,
4:02 💀
"Wuh!"
You got a like for Beluga pic 😂
this video was so nice to watch. Subscribed.
Hi Samuel,
I like the way you present your video.
Funny, informative,
Keep this up.
Thanks
Truly enjoyed your video.
We need her to use the S24
Let's see how your wife likes the s24 Ultra
Hey man, came across your video searching for DEX capabilities on the S24U. Love the straightforward style and your on-cam personality. Also resonated hard as a current/previous owner of a P8P (daily), iPhone 13 Mini (rip), iPhone SE3 (backup), and S23U (rip). Will be following your stuff, thanks!
wow... I just discovered you and this video. Love the content. Very informative even tho i don't really use "DEX" But however, I now have the knowledge and may use in the future because of your video. Thank you and you will be subscribed
Samsoong Dix 🤣🤣🤣
Hey this is the first video I’ve seen of you and I really enjoyed it new sub and like keep up the work!
Just trying to help you hit the 1,000. Good video, interesting and fun. Bravo
Those skits are hilarious! Kudos!
Bro you have made me cry out of laugh in first 3 minutes, like and sub immediately. Just keep up doing it the way you do.
Found this channel by chance as I've been looking at keyboard vids recently and think I've found my new favourite UA-camr. Great vids bro
You just earned me as a subscriber 🤗 Banger Vid.... looking forward to future videos
First day with my S24 Ultra and I stumble across this video in my UA-cam feed. Hilarious Dex review. Makes me wanna use it for Adobe Light room since it's free on Mobile!!
Great video. Super entertaining and informative
I've used DEX for basic video editing. It can work if needed but its not the greatest use. For average tasks like youtube, email, sheets, web browsing.... etc etc... it's great. I it daily in my office set up.
Mate, I hit subscribe 1 minute in. Your content is hilarious. Love the outakes :)
I discovered the Samsung tablets do DeX without the need for a monitor and I love it. Just plug a keyboard and mouse in or Bluetooth both and there you have it.
Good video on feature I should use more. I especially appreciate the reenactments, characters and bits
Very great video, I have the Z Fold 5 and was not aware that you can use the phone and Dex at the same time but that is very good to know. Been looking into possibly getting the Viture AR glasses to use it for Dex so I'm not hauling around a monitor.
My idea is S24 Ultra+ Monitor + DeX + Google Sheets for doing business plans, also Collabora Office. Few tech users seem to be doing real work, as in business management and administration.
I hadn't realized that two people can essentially use the phone at the same time with the car example you gave at the end. That's super cool.
Im mooving to Galaxy just because of this feature, for me is major game changer is that no I only needs my phone. Hope soon all the companies compete on this field, is just amazing.
This guy is crazy good, i just watched you for the first time and as a tech/vlog/gamer guy point of view, you sir made my day, like literally i want to order what you are having, teach me sensei! Please hire me 😂 much love here from the Philippines ❤️
AWESOME video, Samuel ! 👏🏻 I just "discovered" your channel, and this content earned you an instant Sub ! 😊
I ❤ using the built-in DeX on my Tab S7 Plus, and you're giving me fresh ideas for how to leverage wireless DeX on my S22 Ultra ! 💡 🙌🏻
This video alone got you a subscription. Great video!
When my laptop was broken I literally did the same thing with the lgv50 back then, I literally connected it to a hub then plugged it to a monitor and peripherals. I managed to make my work reports and presentations as well as take and edit videos for tainee assessments to be sent to the main office...
but thats everyday work, Im amazed that you can actually make your client vids on it.
Thanks!! I tried early versions of Dex, but not recently
As a 1st-gen koram man The apple hq samsung hq scene got you a sub easily.
Maybe your wife or editorial said it wouldn't be funny but you kept it in and I applaud bravado and humor with a sub, more like this pls, cheers from CA
I use Dex on my Galaxy S20 FE for editing docs and excel connected to my tv and it works amazing!
Great to see this channel getting the attention it deserves!
The ending video was part of another world. I loved the whole video, but the ending made me want to leave a positive comment about whole this video. reps+ and thanks for posting all this positive vibes.
I just switched from an S22 Ultra to an S24 (regular). I was just tired of having that mini-tablet in my pocket all the time. Sometimes I miss the super zoom camera from the Ultra. Sometimes I miss the larger battery. But I never miss the larger screen or memory. If you're trying to do video work on it, the memory might be helpful, but just doing Excel, Word, and emails in DeX, the regular S24 is great.
What's weird though is that I use DeX at home, sitting right next to a powerful desktop workstation, more often than I do away from home. I already have 2 laptops so I wasn't going to spend $400 to turn my phone into a worse laptop. But I can just plug into the monitor and keyboard I already have sitting on the desk to write a semi-long email rather than wait for the desktop to boot.
Love you guys!
I’ve seen so many youtubers but you are the one whom i subscrbed by watching just a single video
Your video makes me feel happy….
The last few seconds best part of the video. Pure gold.
Hehe he great video mate. Just got my S24U to review and test out. Might replace my Macbook Pro for a bit to test your theory. Your editing skills are next level too!
I liked seeing that you didn't actually throw the Macbook.
Many creators treat expensive items with disrespect. The reason they always give is that money has no value.
Money is lifetime and you don't throw lifetime.
Apart from that, I think your test was really great and helped me make my decision. When the time comes, I will swap my Apple smartphone for a DEX device.
Best regards from germany!
