Samsung Galaxy S9+ gets dockless DeX support in Android Pie beta
The Samsung Galaxy S9+ is getting support for the dockless DeX mode in Samsung Experience 10 based on Android Pie, like the Samsung Galaxy Note 9.
Samsung DeX is Samsung's desktop experience based on Android that appears when you connect your Galaxy S8, Galaxy Note 8, Galaxy S9, or Galaxy Note 9 to a monitor. It allows for multiple windows and apps to be open at once with a special UI designed for a larger desktop screen. Samsung Experience 10 based on Android Pie is almost here for the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy Note 9 and comes with a whole slew of new features. Dockless DeX from the Galaxy Note 9 is one of those new features being brought to the Samsung Galaxy S9 and Samsung Galaxy S9+. This means that all you need is a simple HDMI to USB Type-C cable to use Samsung DeX.
Samsung DeX may support wireless connections in the future
With the Galaxy Note 9, you no longer need a dock to use Samsung DeX. Apparently, Samsung is already working on making the feature wireless.
Samsung DeX is the company's platform for transforming mobile devices into a desktop-like interface. It was originally kicked off in 2017 with the Samsung DeX Pad and DeX Station, which are expensive accessories that connect your phone to a larger display. With the Samsung Galaxy Note 9, they removed the requirement to use the docking pad. All you need is an HDMI adapter. In the future, you may not even need that.

Google has been pushing Android partners to jump on board for a while now, and their working on their own services. Today, Samsung and Google have made a very big announcement for the future of RCS.
Samsung Galaxy Note 9 to support Samsung DeX without DeX Pad or DeX Station
The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 will launch DeX without a special Samsung DeX Station or DeX Pad. All you will need is a USB Type-C to HDMI adapter.
Samsung launched Samsung DeX with the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+. It was what Samsung believed to be the future of the mobile workstation, but it was pretty much a flop. Not very many people used DeX because the station was too expensive and inconvenient. Samsung is looking to make up for that with the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. Our source is saying that you will be able to use DeX without a special DeX Station or DeX Pad. All you will need is a USB Type-C to HDMI adapter. WinFuture was able to corroborate this information first.

The Galaxy Tab S4 will be the successor of the Galaxy Tab S3, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820-powered tablet that was launched in February 2017.
