Dex...The future of office

[keano70]

Paul Keane here in Galway. I am a busy person. I need results and I need them immdiately. I dont have time for latency, OS problems, restart times, and ensuring everything is saved to the cloud so i can access from my phone. Well i am sure some genius in Samsung said, why not have a phone and a laptop combined that you can pop into your pocket. Welcome Galaxy and Dex. Although I have only being using it for 4 days. it has already shedded hours off my week. It is truly an evolution in office. I run a number of businesses and charities including #AthenryForApple, Womms and Andys Glass Design. I am so impressed with what you have done Samsung. Little did I know when I lived in a Samsung Building in Seoul back in 2003-4 that I would be contacting you from Athenry with such praize 14 years later. 

It does need more development but what you have created is truely brillant 

thank you

Hi Sorry for taking so long to come back to you. 

I have being using the Note 8 constantly since my last interaction here. I have to say it is truely amazing and opens a window to the future espically with DEX. 

A few improvements with DEX: When i undock from Dex, the phone automatically turns off Wifi and BT. this is annoying as i would still use both in most circumstances after leaving the desktop. I would suggest there is some sort of option such as ' What would you like to happen when you undock from Dex?' and a few options on that. This could even be intergrated through Bixby but that might be majorily complex. 

I do notice i am leaning towards using the Google assistant for internet and communication tasks and leaning towards Bixby for app and phone tasks. just Bixby is not getting what i am saying. I know you can train it, but time is an issue for me as i work 25 hours a day! 

Why was I in Seoul? I had left military service and wanted to see the world. I was heading to New Zealand and stopped in Seoul for 3 weeks to visit 2 friends that were there since the Soccer World Cup in 02. The 3 weeks turned into 4 then 6 then 8 and eventually I stayed for a year and a half. 

I wrote my first business plan (handwritten) in Seoul. although the plan didn't work out it was a major lesson. Seoul changed me from a solider to a real boy!! I found the people so amazing and such a safe city with the exception of around the US army base.    I would love to return some day and see what has changed and maybe visit some old haunts! 

I met my wife there who was teaching english in Gwangdew (sorry about the spelling) it was south east of Seoul. I lived near Seoul Dae Hak Yeow. loved running up the hill in the campus! 

Thanks again
