Samsung Android Firmware Updates

The latest update for the Samsung Galaxy Fold enables DeX on PC. This mode allows you to connect the phone to your Windows or Mac computer via a USB cable and use the computer’s monitor, keyboard and mouse.

This means you can edit Office documents using a full size keyboard or game with the extra accuracy of a computer mouse. Plus, it’s easy to drag and drop files between the two devices.

Note that the Galaxy Fold already supported the DeX mode where it connects directly to a monitor. However, unless you have a dedicated monitor (and keyboard/mouse) for the Fold, DeX on PC is more convenient – just download the app, plug the Fold into your computer and you’re good to go.

The update (which weighs around 900MB) brings the phone up to version F900FXXU2ASKB. A similar update for the Galaxy Fold 5G should be close behind too.

Completely useless feature. If you already have a PC you also have more powerful software than anything DeX. DeX is a good idea for when you are on the go and need a good approximation of a PC. If you have the real deal though, the approximation...
