DeX now allows users to easily share files with connected PCs or Macs, and wirelessly connect to TVs and computers. Over the years, DeX has expanded to include a wide range of flagship Galaxy smartphones, tablets, and now foldable devices. Alternately, either screen can continue to open native Android applications be used for Unified Communication or other needed functions.ĭeX has come a long way since 2017, as Samsung has provided feature updates based on customer feedback and new technologies. The image above shows the experience Horizon on DeX provides, running VMware’s Horizon Client on a Samsung Galaxy S Tab connected to a Samsung USB-C monitor to provide a multi-screen desktop experience. In this example, the VMware Horizon Client for Android uses DeX functionality with Samsung’s Galaxy S Tab and extends the virtual desktop to both displays. Galaxy device users get seamless access to virtual desktops across screens and can manage applications on each of them from a single device. VMware utilized Samsung’s DeX Dual Mode function to add support for extended display virtualization, and DeX APIs to provide flagship Galaxy phone and tablet users the first Extended Display Workspace with full keyboard and mouse compatibility across both screens. VMware Workspace One provides IT admins a comprehensive management of Samsung DeX by its fully-integrated Knox Service Plugin for enterprise use. Connected to an external monitor, flagship Samsung Galaxy devices (phones and tablets) can now use the device’s display as a secondary screen just as a PC has been able to provide, powered by VMware’s Horizon and Workspace ONE. Now, we are excited to debut one of Samsung DeX users’ most widely requested features: Extended Display via VMware Horizon on Samsung DeX. ![]() VMware and Samsung have since collaborated to evolve the VDI experience on flagship Galaxy phones and tablets, combining optimizations with new capabilities to make DeX even more powerful. Several years ago, Samsung introduced Samsung DeX, enabling Galaxy S8 smartphones to offer a PC-like “Desktop eXperience” through a connected monitor.
