Isn’t that basically Samsung Dex

• roywiggins 7y ago
  Yes, Dex can more or less do this. I didn't realize my Samsung phone could do it for six months after I bought it, so maybe it's not well advertised. It does work, but I haven't tried to get actual work done with it.

    I have, but it doesn't work out or i haven't found adequate tools for my programmer's task. Most of the apps can't be full screen, fortunately there is dexmax app to fix this. Overall experience for some serious work is not good, but for surfing it's fine. I succesfully used rdp to connect to my desktop computer :)

  Samsung Dex is dead, the project was canceled.

    The Samsung/Ubuntu project is dead, but Dex seems to be going okay, they just rolled it out to the Fold. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Samsung-finally-adds-DeX-support-to-Galaxy-Fold-with-November-security-patch.448639.0.html https://www.notebookcheck.net/Samsung-finally-adds-DeX-suppo... Android 10 can apparently be coaxed into something like a desktop experience if you have the right phone. It's at least possible Android 11 will have a proper desktop mode built in, but I suppose I'm not holding my breath. https://www.xda-developers.com/make-android-10-desktop-mode-useful/ https://www.xda-developers.com/make-android-10-desktop-mode-...
