No power cord. **Q: Tengo un s20 note, es util la compra?** A: Compatible con toda la serie S. **Q: Is the s8 active compatible?** A: Samsung's official docs and specifications say that the S8 Active does work with DeX and is compatible. However, after having a rep actually contact Samsung and the rep filed their own report about it. The specifications are misleading. No DeX station is compatible with the S8 Active even though the S8 Active says it is compatible with DeX. I have seen very little about this situation but the phone will not be supported by Samsung for DeX currently. It is a featured specification for the phone but Samsung made no equipment to use the specification. This should be known and is very important! Even the rep themselves got into with Samsung and is sending the conversation to technical or whoever to have it looked at because they said it was obvious very misleading for them to have the specification that it was a feature and compatible yet has absolutely no supporting equipment. **Q: If the phone speed is wireless ac speeds like 450 mbps+, if the ethernet port is only 100 mbps, the speed is limited to 100mbps? so useless for me?** A: 4k video streams at 25mbps. Downloads are rarely faster than 100. So, for a single device, you won't get much advantage. However, you can still use the wifi instead. The main feature for me is to create a desktop experience with your phone. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works perfectly wth large S21 Ultra, just get USB-C M-to-F extension cord *by D***R on March 6, 2021* I bought this DeX Station instead of DeX Pad, because of the available ethernet connection on the Station. The ethernet option of the phone (in Connections) lights up when the ethernet port on the Station is connected, so you can make use of this rather than WiFi or cell system if you want. Turns out it is a 10/100 port on the Station, not a gigabit port. But this isn't a big deal to me. Does in fact work perfectly through ethernet just limited to that speed. If your WiFi speed is faster just disable ethernet in Connections and go with WiFi for the phone, which is still an option.I knew in advance that there would be no way the large S21 Ultra (made even larger with the Otterbox Defender Pro case it's in) could possibly fit in the Station's cradle in order to mate with the USB-C prong. So I separately bought a Stouchi 1.5ft USB-C male-to-female extension cable, which allows the phone to simply lie flat on the desk while connected to the Station through the extension cable.Also, because the particular DeX station product I bought comes all by itself (hence its lower price), I also had to separately buy a USB-C charger, which plugs into the USB-C/PD port of the Station (in order to deliver power to the phone which is itself connected to the USB-C prong of the Station). I bought a super-fast charging 25W charger that was compatible with the S21 Ultra.I had my own HDMI cable (premium certified for 4K HDR), so I didn't need to purchase one.But otherwise, the Station works amazing!I had tried to use my own TOTU 13-in-1 USB-C mini-dock (which has all of the same connectors as the Station, plus many more) but display under DeX was limited to 1920x1080p 60hz no matter whether using 1080p monitor/TV or even 4K monitor/TV. Turns out you need to SPECIFICALLY USE only Samsung DeX Station or DeX Pad if you want to get 2560x1440 60hz desktop while in DeX mode, using either a 2560x1440 monitor or 4K monitor/TV. Can't be done using 3rd-party mini-docks. MUST USE SAMSUNG STATION OR PAD for 2560x1440.Otherwise, all other external peripherals and software features of DeX are available through ANY min-dock, including my TOTU. In other words you can connect a USB mouse and USB keyboard (using the two USB-A 2.0 ports), to make your human input just like using your computer. I even used my IBM PS/2 keyboard which goes through an Adesso PS/2-to-USB adapter and it worked perfectly.I did have a problem using my own Lenovo wireless laser mouse, whose receiver I plugged into a USB-A port. Didn't seem to work hardly at all. Totally useless. I then connected a MS wired USB mouse, and it worked perfectly! Perhaps a Logitech wireless mouse/receiver would work better. YMMV. I don't mind using the wired mouse which worked 100% fine for me with DeX Station.Note that mouse cursor speed and primary mouse button is controllable through the phone's Settings -> General management -> mouse and trackpad. Similarly you can configure the keyboard here as well, through -> physical keyboard.Note that the DeX Station also supports "Phone mode", in addition to "DeX mode", for utilizing the same externally connected peripherals. In other words you can operate the phone normally, but with the improvements offered by all four externally connected peripherals (ethernet, mouse, keyboard, display), simply by connecting everything up to the Station and NOT using DeX. You simply toggle back and forth between DeX mode or Phone mode through Settings -> Advanced features -> DeX mode of the phone. Alternatively you can also make use of Quick Settings to get to the DeX toggle mode option, by pulling down the notification bar of the phone (to get the short Quick Settings buttons), and then pulling it down a second time (to get the full settings buttons, first page), and then swiping left (to get the second page settings buttons which includes DeX).Not every app can run in DeX mode, which is why you sometimes NEED to go back to Phone mode. For example the Messages app (I use Verizon Message+) cannot run in DeX mode but MUST run in Phone mode. I tried several other of my own 3rd-party apps and again, just because of their nature, were unable to run in DeX desktop mode but instead required Phone mode. Nevertheless the Station still facilitates all of the niceness of having a mouse and keyboard available to do input, while also seeing the "mirror" of the phone screen maximized vertically on the external monitor/TV display in order to use the full vertical height of the external display screen.What is remarkable about DeX and apps that are fully compatible with it is that you can resize and relocate the app windows (or even maximize them to run full-screen if you want). You can pull edges and corners just like you can with program windows on your computer. And while apps normally open by default into what appears to a be a size and portrait-mode shape of the phone, you can try to switch them to DeX mode (using controls on the DeX-presented program window) in order to resize as you want. There is even the ability to "try" this, even if technically the app wasn't actually written to support DeX mode. And it turns out most apps actully WILL run perfectly in DeX mode!Note that the phone's screen will go dark after the normal screen timeout value. But the "mirror" of the phone screen (when running through the Station in Phone mode) or the fullscreen DeX desktop (when running through the Station in DeX mode) will always remain on. It should be mentioned that the "mirror" of the phone screen (in Phone mode) is presented in maximum resolution of your monitor/TV. So if you are using a 4K monitor/TV the phone mirror displayed (vertically maximized) on your screen will also be 4K. This is different than how the DeX fullscreen desktop appears, which utilizes your entire monitor/TV at up to 2560x1440p.All in all, with for my situation the Station enabling 2560x1440p for the DeX desktop presentation, operating your Samsung phone in DeX mode is really a stunning experience. As advertised, it truly is like operating your computer. Same human external input/output peripherals, same very Windows-like desktop experience. Same taskbar for navigation between multiple apps running in multiple open windows on the desktop, same ability to minimize/restore running program windows to/from the taskbar, etc.And with the DeX-provided ability to resize/relocate app windows, the familiar mouse/keyboard actions you would do for programs running on your computer you can just intuitively do with the same (or other) apps on your phone! Assuming you are traveling with the same full set of external peripherals (plus external display/monitor/TV which you will need with DeX that you really don't need with a laptop) that you would normally use with a laptop, and assuming all software that you need has a mobile phone Android version, the Station really does allow you to make use of your phone as if it truly were your computer. You'll have to also carry the Station with you, but it's "tiny" in comparison to a laptop.Most important bottom line: the DeX Station works perfectly. And it (as well as DeX Pad) supports up to 2560x1440p on the external display, which is not available with any other brand USB-C mini-dock even if the identical ports are available on that other mini-dock. Otherwise, at least my TOTU mini-dock worked almost perfectly, being limited only to a 1920x1080p DeX desktop.EDIT 1: need to add that 2560x1440 is only available on a monitor or TV that actually supports that VESA resolution. I have an Eizo CG318-4K monitor that does support 2560x1440, so DeX through the Station offers that output resolution. However when I connect to my LG OLED C9 (which is a native 4K HDTV that does not support 2560x1440 but does support 3540x2160 which the Station/DeX does not), the highest resolution available is 1920x1080p. Bottom line: you CAN get 2560x1440p, if your display device supports it. Otherwise you'll only get 1920x1080p.EDIT 2: While many apps can run in DeX mode, as I said earlier not all can. And as it turns out the native Netflix and Hulu apps DO NOT OPERATE PROPERLY in DeX mode. But other streaming apps, like Prime Video and PBS both DO OPERATE PROPERLY in DeX mode. So if streaming movies from phone to your TV is your goal, your best bet is just NOT to use DeX mode, but simply run in Phone mode. This way the HDMI cabling from your phone through the Station and then on out to your TV will literally just mirror your phone's playing of a Netflix or Hulu or whatever movie, onto your HDTV, which is really all you cared about in the first place. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm using this to write my review right now *by J***J on October 5, 2024* I got this dock specifically to use at work, as it is more convenient to do some things on a computer than on a cell phone, but I don't always want to use the work computer (say, if I'm logging into personal accounts). This dock works fantastically. My Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra works extremely well in DeX mode, and this facilitates it perfectly. It should it's a first-party accessory specifically designed for this purpose. My only gripe is that I can't dock my phone while it's in a case, but there is an adapter I will be ordering that raises the connector just a little bit, which will solve this issue. Kind of a bummer that the dock doesn't include such an adapter from the factory, but that's Samsung for you. I certainly recommend this for anyone that wants the extra utility of a desktop that you can take with you more easily than a laptop. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Funciona perfectamente *by L***O on May 9, 2025* Gracias vendedor excelente 👍 funciona perfectamente ## Frequently Bought Together - Samsung DeX Station, Desktop Experience for Samsung Galaxy Note8 , Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+, [Charger & Cable not Included] (International Version No Warranty) - Faracent USB Type C Extension Cable (1Ft/0.3m), USB C 3.1(10gbps) Male to Female Extension Charging & Sync Compatible with Switch, MacBook Air M2/ M1/ Pro, iPad Pro/Air Dell XPS Surface Book- Black - Cellularize USB C Extender Adapter Straight (2 Pack) 40Gbps 240W Cable Extension Type-C Low Profile Male to Female Thunderbolt QC & Data Transfer for USB-C Devices --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/42520528-samsung-dex-station-desktop-experience-for-samsung-galaxy-note8-galaxy](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/42520528-samsung-dex-station-desktop-experience-for-samsung-galaxy-note8-galaxy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
