Review on Samsung Experience Included International Warranty by Tyler Spencer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

DeX is the reason I bought the S8

I heard about this accessory before the phone came out and that's what attracted me to the Samsung S8 phone. I can watch my DirectV app on my HDMI TV from my phone wherever I go with unlimited AT&T data or WiFi coverage. Netflix needs to be changed to watch full screen. I never found out if S8 active works with it? I prefer the S8 active's longer battery life and flat screen, but there's no word on whether it's compatible. Both the S8 and S8+ work well when docked. What I don't like is that the extended battery compartment doesn't work through the phone when docked. I found one that fits, but it needs to be empty in the dock for DeX to work. It feels like you are using a desktop computer. Blue tooth headsets, connected keyboards and mice make it easy to use. This satisfied my entertainment needs as I no longer need Wi-Fi or cable/satellite service. This helped reduce costs from cutting cables. Using DeX applications requires an average level of application and technology knowledge to use and configure them. 4 stars overall based on what was stated.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
