Dex is a awesome feature but executed so bad..
Is the any way to increase the resolution and hz? 
Where is atleast 1080 and 120hz? 
Or will dex allways stay in 2008 screens specs??

      Dex should support up to 4K (with help of multistar module from goodlock) on external monitor. But are you referring to dex use on a tablet itself or?

      Update: apparently it depends on dex version, if you have an older one it is maxed to 1920x1080 or lower.

      It depends what type of ram your phone has. And, you can change the resolution in Samsung deX

      You can increase Samsung DeX resolution by installing Samsung's Good Lock app and the MultiStar module, then enabling the "High Resolution For External Display" option within MultiStar and restarting DeX. However, increasing the refresh rate (Hz) to 120Hz or higher in DeX is a known issue, with users reporting that it causes extra delays and that official support for high refresh rates was removed in later versions, according to a Samsung forum post. I'm hopeful this solves your issue. Best regards AndroidSweden

      What happened to Dex!? The version on my s20 feels much more premium and better. This one on the s25 is horrible.. i dont even want to use it anymore..
