More I use this the more I like it.....

What about you guys, would you have spend the money on buying one now that you know what it can do ?

I used mine over the weekend to stream supersport in my lapa... what a joy swapping between the DSTV Now app and Google Play Music during half time


Spent money??? Not sure tbh

I like it, however not enough to buy it. It feels like the software should be able to be used in miracast.

If the DeX enabled you to use two monitors, then I would buy it. I use the keyboard from the bundle a lot though, as the Note 8 screen size helps for email, Skype for Business, etc.

Yes it does.

 

[Park@82]

Yes it does.

Thanks. You still using yours or have the novelty worn off?

still using it now and again, but not as my pc at work. still some things better on a windows machine, obviously.

It is quite awesome though when I watch netflix or linux distro's on the bedroom TV.

Anyone using Amazon Prime with DeX on their S8 or Note8s? Does it work well?

Just got an account and downloaded The Grand Tour season 2

UPDATE: You cannot use Amazon Prime in Desktop mode, you have to use it in Phone Mode (Screen Mirroring). Basically the phone will play the video while it also plays it on the monitor.

That said, I enjoyed this, was great quality and will use it going forward.

And DeX works great with the slim Samsung cover that comes with the phone in the box.

Have you tried repackaging the app via Dex Max?
