I have the old(maybe the first) Samsung Dex dockingstation. Got it with my Note 8, now I have a S22 Ultra. It saved my day because my pc broke down and is still not working. On Dex I can edit the same files that I could on my pc. Normally the resolution is WQHD 2560 x 1440, but then I tried the Good Lock thing and it went to UHD(4K) 3840 x 2160. That was to wild for me, so went back to 2560 x 1440. I use Dex on my 65@ tv. My phone can even read my eksternal harddrive with a capasity of 4 TB and it supports most videofile types. Wild. Your videos are always helpfull and great. When I see something like this, I always share the video with friends.
Just tried again today. Yes it can still read my 4 TB eXsternal harddrive. I tried because I wasen't sure if it could also read iso files. But with VLC installed, you just double click on the file and it asks you if you want to open the file with VLC. And YES it does open and plays fine. But as standard Samsung reads most video files.
HI, I have a problem using Microsoft word using Dex with mouse and keyboard. Is there any way to select the words like in windows? it hard for me to copy paste words in the document
Very useful. I have a 10.5” 1920x1280 monitor and a 13.3” 1920x1080 monitor. Great to know that I can change the settings accordingly. Dex is a great tool on my Samsung S20.
@@nickthaskater If you have windows for DEX installed on your PC, it will definitely work! But I don't have a PC, I only use Samsung DEX and I can do selective screenshots by right-clicking on the screen shot button (Germany! Samsung dex on Galaxy Note9 and 22 ultra)
I knew about the feature but never used it before. I'm excited since I'm getting an adapter that allows both AA and Dex on my truck infotainment screen.
Hell yeah thanks the resolution was driving me nuts. My PC broke due to power outage and the power bar failed so i was like iˋll use my phone as a pc style till i build a new pc but i was stuck on 1080p resolution. This fixed my issues. thank you very much
On older phones like the Galaxy Note 9, I can't change the resolution to WQHD it's limited to Full HD only! I tried to install MultiStar plugin of Goodlock application and there is no "I love Samsung Dex" option on the list to change the resolution to WQHD or 4K, what to do? Thank you.
Great video.. 1. Looking at buying s24+, does that come with dex, or you need ultra? 2. Can you make your own custom keyboard shortcuts, or custom mouse clicks macros. 3. Looking at a portable monitor for car use, would you recommend OLED or an IPS panel? Thank you
Thank you so much! My biggest issue was with the screen resolution when I'm connecting my tablet to my external monitor. This looks much better. Only problem now is the size of the icons on the desktop. They still seem comically large for the screen resolution.
I am planning to do a similar setup. One question though, in video i can see that you have connected your monitor via type c cable, but you are using a bluetooth mouse for pointer. Where is the dongle for mouse connected to? Have you connected it to monitor?
Question for anyone who may know the answer... I've been running dex to stream hockey games and up until yesterday (granted I hadn't used it in a few months) the color on the TV always seemed perfect. Yesterday I was using it to watch a game and the color of the screen was I credibly bright. Whites were blindingly bright ro the point that they all blended in. This was never an issue before. Whites blending in while watching hockey isn't a good thing. Watching the stream on my phone was fine. Casting it was also fine but choppy from not so great internet.

The main issue I have with Dex is it doesn't appear to support a spell checker with the Samsung email when using an external xternal keyboard. The iPad Mini 6 does because it is mirroring the tablet.
Dex runs at 60hz max, but if you just mirror the screen out of dex it can support qhd 120hz, will need a software to make android same resolution of the external monitor, connect it USB to USB on portable monitor no need adapter or hub.
