Connecting Your Galaxy Z Fold 7 to a Monitor

  • 📱 The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 supports Samsung DeX, a feature that allows you to use your phone as a desktop computer by connecting it to a monitor.
  • 🔌 You can connect via a USB-C cable if your monitor supports video input and charging, or via HDMI.

HDMI Connection and Charging Solutions

  • 🔌 A direct USB-C to HDMI cable allows video output but does not support charging.
  • 💡 For charging while using HDMI, a USB-C adapter with Power Delivery (PD) is recommended. This adapter can also provide additional USB-A ports for accessories like keyboards and mice, an Ethernet port, and a data USB-C port.
  • 🔌 If your monitor does not have HDMI, adapters or cables for DisplayPort, VGA, or DVI can be used.

Setting Up and Using Samsung DeX

  • 🖥️ Once connected, Samsung DeX will appear on your monitor.
  • 👆 To use your phone as a touchpad, tap the touchpad button in the bottom left corner of your phone's screen or find the notification by sliding down from the top left.
  • 🖱️ Your phone can then be used to navigate the DeX interface on the monitor, functioning like a computer mouse.
  • ⌨️ External keyboards and mice can also be connected via Bluetooth or USB ports on an adapter.
