Rumor: Galaxy S9 will be accompanied by the DeX Pad

Last updated: December quaternary, 2017 at 10:28 UTC+01:00

Samsung is working on a new version of the DeX Station to be launched with the Galaxy S9 adjacent year, and like the visitor's original wireless charger, the 2d-generation DeX dock will be a pad rather than a stand. That'due south according to the folks over at GalaxyClub, who say the dock will exist chosen DeX Pad, launch alongside the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+, and come up in black. Their information reiterates a recent written report past popular leakster evleaks (a written report that too suggested the S9 and S9+ will make a cameo at CES in January).

The "pad" in DeX Pad isn't without reason

With Android Oreo, the display of the connected telephone can be used equally a mouse, and the reports about the DeX Pad suggest it will as well get the option of being used as a keyboard. That would negate the need for you to carry around a mouse and a keyboard to properly utilize DeX equally is the case right at present. We practise wonder how one will go near connecting the phone to the dock if it'southward lying flat, though. At that place will probably be a hinge for the USB (Type-C) port that hides away when unused (like the i on the Gear VR), and it will all hopefully be a convenient process.

Could information technology as well exist that the DeX Pad will work both equally a stand and a pad like Samsung's convertible wireless charger? Since the phone needs to exist connected physically via a USB port, we're guessing a convertible DeX dock volition involve a not-so-intuitive machinery, but it'due south non out of the realm of possibility. That's simply speculation, nonetheless, and there's no telling what the DeX Pad will look like at this point. Here's hoping Samsung's has at to the lowest degree managed to fit in a three.5 mm audio port, the lack of which is a notable indicate of contention on the first-gen DeX Station.
