So apparently  Windows 11 will be able to run Android apps natively and through  Amazon app market.

But guess what .....

Us samsung users can apparently run some android apps on Windows 10 with the Windows phone app 'link to Windows ' already on Windows 10.

Anyone tried it?

PS. I'm glad samsung is really good with collaborating with MS and Google.

Link to Windows is OK, but personally I prefer Dex (Samsung official app) its super lightweight and you can control almost everything from your pc/laptop. There are only a small number of apps/games that don't allow mouse control.

It's Ok but effectively it shows your phone in a window. It's been available for a long time - surely over a year? You can interact and type using your computer keyboard. It isn't fast! You get notifications from the phone popping up on your computer and can click the popup to reply to texts, send WhatsApp messages and I suppose, play games. If you are logging into a site on your PC that sends you a text message it is really easy to copy and paste the code without opening your phone.

It is much slower than using the Windows WhatsApp app. 

Never tried dex. Can't really see any added value compared to using the PC.
