  • How to use your Galaxy S25 as a PC with Samsung DeX

    Working on the go is great, but sometimes, you need a full desktop experience to truly get work done. One of the most surprising and useful features on Galaxy mobile devices and tablets is Samsung DeX, which lets you extend your device to a larger screen, creating a desktop-like experience. Once your device is connected to a display, you can simultaneously work across multiple apps and resize windows, much like on a PC.

    On the latest Samsung mobile devices — such as the Galaxy S25 Series, Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Tab Active5 — you can run DeX wirelessly on any display that supports Miracast to enjoy an even more seamless work experience.

    For instance, when you or your team are back in the office or another fixed location, you can use Samsung DeX to take advantage of Galaxy S25’s features that allow unrivaled video creation, such as Night Video with Audio Erase. A desktop-like experience might also be ideal for digging into insights culled from translated call recordings via Galaxy S25’s Galaxy AI-powered on-device transcripts and summaries.

    Running DeX wirelessly removes the need for an HDMI adapter to connect, and it works nicely on Samsung Smart TVs for presentations or anything else requiring an expansive display.

    For a more traditional desktop experience, Samsung also has a Smart Monitor line, which supports wireless DeX. With a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, you can create a streamlined DeX setup to power through your workday without ever booting up a PC or connecting a cable.

    Of course, if you don’t have a Smart Monitor or Miracast-enabled display, you can still use DeX. Just use an HDMI to USB-C adapter or connect directly to a USB-C monitor.

    But if you do want to take advantage of wireless DeX, here’s how to set it up on your Samsung Smart Monitor:

    Setting up Samsung DeX on your Samsung Smart Monitor

    1. Begin by plugging in your Smart Monitor and turning it on.
    2. Using the provided remote or the physical buttons on the monitor, select the Source option and choose Screen Mirroring.
    3. On your Galaxy device, open the quick menu by dragging down from the top of the screen, then tap the DeX option.
    4. In the DeX menu, select “DeX on TV or Monitor.”
    5. Your Galaxy device will search for available displays to connect to. When you see your Smart Monitor appear, tap on it.
    6. That’s it! You’ll now see the DeX logo appear on your Smart Monitor, and you can get right to work.

    With DeX enabled, you can use your mobile device as a touchpad. But for a true desktop-like experience, you’ll likely want to add a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.

    Adding a keyboard and mouse

    1. Put your keyboard and mouse in pairing mode, following the manufacturers’ instructions.
    2. Open the Settings app on your smartphone and navigate to the Bluetooth menu.
    3. Select the keyboard and mouse from your Bluetooth menu.
    4. You may be asked to type in a verification code on your keyboard to complete pairing.

    Once paired, you can use your DeX-enabled device to work in your favorite productivity apps, including Google Workspace, Cisco Webex, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Remote Desktop, Citrix Workspace, Zoom Cloud Meetings and more.

    Samsung DeX vs. screen mirroring

    You may have seen other smartphones that offer screen mirroring, but screen mirroring functions quite differently from DeX. With typical screen mirroring, your device’s screen is duplicated on another display — still retaining its original shape and layout.

    Galaxy S25 comes with the display your content deserves, as well as an AI scaler that enables the most lifelike images ever, but with DeX, your second display offers a complete PC-like experience while your smartphone continues to function independently. These dual screens allow you to use DeX for more than just sharing presentations or multimedia on a larger monitor. Instead, you can work just as freely as you would on a desktop PC.

    Plus, if you want to get more done without connecting to an external display, Samsung Galaxy tablets, such as Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra or Tab S10+, can switch to a DeX experience with the push of a button.

    DeX complements Galaxy S25 features that support writing, searching and using content across your smartphone, PC, tablet or TV. With Samsung DeX, you can get work done at any desk — taking your most important work with you. And with new wireless options, DeX can take your daily productivity even further.

  • Samsung launches Galaxy S25 series; to be manufactured at Noida plant

    South Korean consumer electronics major Samsung, which on Wednesday launched its latest smartphone Galaxy S25 here, will also be manufactured at its Noida plant in India, said J B Park, President and CEO of Southwest Asia.

    Moreover, the Bengaluru-based R&D centre of Samsung, the biggest outside South Korea, has “contributed significantly” to developing the S25 series of Galaxy AI.

    The new flagship phone, which comes in three variants Galaxy S25 Ultra, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 — will help Samsung to strengthen its AI ecosystem in India.

    This will also help Samsung position itself in the super-premium smartphone segment, priced over USD 800 dollars, in the Indian market, where it is facing stiff competition from Apple.

    • Also read: Galaxy S25 launched: Samsung bets on Google’s AI and Qualcomm to revive sales

    The new phone has a customised Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform for Galaxy chipset, which delivers greater on-device processing power for its Galaxy AI and a superior camera range and control with Galaxy’s next-gen ProVisual, the South Korean Chaebol claimed.

    While speaking about Galaxy S25, Park said: “We will also manufacture the new Galaxy S25 series at our Noida plant in India.”

    “We are confident that Galaxy S25 will prove to be more popular than its S24 series,” he added.

    In S25, Samsung is upgrading AI features such as circle to search making it more helpful, fast and contextual.

    According to Park: “In fact, Indian consumers are the biggest users of Galaxy AI features such as circle to search and call assist.”

    Circle to search now quickly recognises phone numbers, emails and URLs on your screen, letting you call, email or visit a website with a single tap, the company claimed.

    Samsung, which starts the year with the launch of S25, expects 2025 to be a “bigger year” for the Indian smartphone industry, said Park in a media round table here.

    S25 Ultra comes with a 6.9-inch QHD+ (Quad HD+) display, and a 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera sensor, which has been upgraded from the previous 12MP.

    It has a 5,000 mAh battery and according to the Samsung Galaxy S25 series, the device uses a minimum of 50 per cent recycled cobalt for its battery.

    “Galaxy S25 will be the first Galaxy smartphone to feature batteries made with recycled cobalt sourced from previous Galaxy devices or the batteries discarded during the manufacturing process,” it said.

    Commenting on the development, Samsung Electronics President and Head of Mobile Experience Business TM Roh said: “Galaxy S25 series opens the door to an AI-integrated OS that fundamentally shifts how we use technology and how we live our lives.”

  • Samsung Strike: Strike started in Samsung, 31000 employees stopped work, know everything

    Samsung Workers: A major strike has started in Samsung, the world’s leading smartphone and electronic device manufacturer. About 31000 workers in South Korea went on an indefinite strike simultaneously from Wednesday.

    The largest union of Samsung Electronics has called for this strike. Earlier, the employees had called for a three-day partial strike. Due to non-fulfillment of demands, they have decided to go on a long strike. This strike of Samsung can have a bad impact all over the world.

    Members of the company’s largest union NSEU went on strike

    According to a CNN report, The National Samsung Electronics Union (NSEU) said that about 6000 employees working in the semiconductor division started a strike earlier this week. Now about 31 thousand people have joined it. A quarter of Samsung’s total employees are members of NSEU. All of them have demanded better salary and working conditions. The union warned that if Samsung does not start talks soon, they will have to regret it a lot.

    Despite good financial condition, staff is not getting benefits

    Soon Woomok, a union leader, said that it would take a lot of time to restart the factories closed due to the strike. Samsung had claimed that due to the boom in artificial intelligence, its operations would grow by about 1450 percent year-on-year in the second quarter. Also, the company’s profit increased 10 times in the first quarter of 2024. However, workers allege that the effect of such a good financial condition is not visible on their salary.

    Samsung agrees to hold talks with employees

    The union leaders said that the company is not treating its employees well. For the last 10 years they have been telling us the same story that there is a crisis situation at present. Apart from this, the company has also cut performance bonuses on a large scale. On the other hand, Samsung said that it is ready to hold talks with the employees. We will ensure that this strike does not affect our production.
