DeX for Windows

[burtonium]

I would like to know if Link for Windows is substitute for DeX? Does it offer desktop version of my Samsung on Windows, like with DeX? Or is just some tool that let me access my data and receiving calls on my PC? Because DeX for Windows is actually really usefull? I don't need to accept calls on my PC, neither I need access to photos. Can someone explain to me, how will I be able to use my Samsung in desktop mode on my PC? This is functionality that i expect from Link for Windows? Does it provide that?

[ChaosSaber]

Yes and yes, its like DeX but its Link

I don't think Link for Windows have a desktop mode, so no, it's not the proper replacement for Dex for PC.

Yes (except for the interface difference as it does not "launch" another GUI). Link for Windows is very useful.

DEX to PC/Computer is going away in OneUI 7.0

If you want to continue to hook up to your PC they are suggesting using the Windows Link from Microsoft going forward.

This does not mean DEX is leaving. You'll still be able to cast to your TV etc

I'll be very disappointed if Dex for PC goes away.  I may even consider Motorola instead.  Link for Windows is lame and so are google messages.  Samsung is removing the features that kept me around.

Don't use Microsofts. They are literally the worst. Trying to get you to plug your phone into the PC so they can identify you and your information. Seriously don't trust them after all this Copilot nonsense
