I’ve always liked the idea of Samsung DeX more than the thought of actually using it. Turning a phone into a desktop computer sounds incredibly cool, but to me, it always felt like one of those features designed to impress people during demos rather than something you could actually count on every day.
So naturally, I decided to do the dumb thing and use Samsung DeX as my only computer for a week. I ditched my laptop and worked with nothing but my Galaxy S26, a monitor, and a handful of accessories. I expected frustration and maybe a little regret, too. Instead, I ended up having way more fun than I anticipated.
