Before the Galaxy Note 9 arrived last year, you could only access Samsung's DeX desktop-style UI using a compatible dock.
Galaxy Note 9 users can get DeX's desktop experience with an HDMI to USB Type-C cable and a monitor. This allows them to control the action on screen with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Well, thanks to Android Pie, Galaxy Note 8 users now have access to this feature. You no longer need to use, or buy, an expensive DeX station. It's extremely useful for those that want a full screen experience while doing work or another activity.
