Is it "Desktop mode" as in Android on the desktop - or is it Desktop Linux (like KDE or Gnome) backed by some distro flavour?

- ccouzens 4y agoAndroid on the desktop. The only desktop exclusive app is the shell itself. Otherwise it's all the same apps as you'd be using in phone mode. The shell is Samsung's own thing. But it works well enough- it has a start menu like launcher. It has floating windows (like every mainstream desktop os), but if you launch too many older apps disappear. You can switch windows with alt tab, using the window list at the bottom of the screen or clicking behind your current window.
