Samsung’s DeX app on Windows is being replaced by Microsoft’s Phone Link


Samsung is favoring Microsoft’s native Windows app instead.

The DeX app for Windows lets you mirror your phone screen to a PC and easily drag and drop files between the devices. We’re still waiting to hear about all the new features in One UI 7, after leaks earlier this year suggest a beta was originally supposed to launch a lot sooner. The upcoming redesign also appeared in a video on Samsung’s Spanish website last week, demonstrating smoother animations, a revamped Quick Panel, and a pill-shaped live activities feature that looks similar to Apple’s Dynamic Island.
