I’ve used Samsung DeX with every Galaxy flagship release, and while the interface remained largely unchanged for several generations, it's received a slight makeover with the Galaxy S26. One of the biggest incentives for me to use DeX is the ability to ditch my laptop, since it offers a rich, desktop-like experience that few other phones can match.
While I was hoping for a dedicated standalone DeX mode similar to the one found on the Galaxy Z TriFold, the version running on the Galaxy S26 still cranks up productivity. It makes juggling multiple apps significantly easier than before. I’ve been putting this new version to the test on my S26, so here's what I think about it.
