Information has been circulating about a heavily improved Android desktop mode that allows you to use your tablet like a mini desktop PC.

Android has toyed with desktop mode s for a while now, but only Samsung’s DeX has actually come to fruition. Android Authority has been keeping an eye on a rumored revamp of Android desktop mode , though, and discovered that it now not only runs on external monitors, but also directly on tablets.

Recommended Videos While we don’t know anything for sure yet, the idea does make sense considering you can now use Samsung DeX mode directly on newer Galaxy tablet models, and Google may want a similar feature for the rumored Pixel Tablet successor. One key difference between the current state of Android desktop mode and Samsung DeX is that the Android version creates a completely separate desktop environment, while DeX merges the tablet Home Screen with desktop-like features.
