We’re still waiting for a DeX price, but we expect it to be less than $150 / £130 / AU$200 - not the most expensive, but you’ll need to find a lot of use for the functionality to really make it worthwhile. If your business is set up for a Google Suite or Microsoft’s productivity apps (which are installed from the outset) then you can instantly be working within a minute of sitting down with a phone. Providing you have a monitor ready to go (and ideally a keyboard, as using the mouse to peck out letters using an on-screen keyboard is a nightmare) then you’re instantly set up ready to go. It’s hard not to be impressed by having a secret Chromebook hidden in your phone. We were able to open a Google Doc pretty quickly, simply by downloading the app, and instantly we were able to access all of our normal files and word processing options, typing out a quick doc and having it automatically save to the cloud. On top of that, you’ve got full access to your Samsung Galaxy handset within a virtual window, allowing you to reply to messages or open the apps your normally would on your device. Once in, you’re treated to a very familiar interface if you’ve used Windows of late - the windows resize in a very similar fashion, the dock has icons that you’ll instinctively know how to use and while the icons on the right-hand side are a little confusing, you’ll work it out pretty easily. It’s an impressive set up when it loads for the first time, although you’ll need to wait for a few seconds when connecting the phone to the USB Type-C clip at the bottom of the dock. The whole point of DeX is that it offers a new working environment from your phone, allowing you to do word processing, PowerPoint, spreadsheet work, gaming and use myriad Android apps too.
