Desktop Mode

The Desktop mode allows you to turn your device into an actual PC, so you can open apps, manage files or change the desktop wallpaper. Some apps are already optimized for this mode, such as Gmail, Microsoft Office suite, YouTube or Google Chrome.

In this mode the phone becomes a touchpad, helping you to control a pointer on the larger display.

You can also connect a Bluetooth integrated or OTG-powered (HID compliant) keyboard and mouse to your phone, for a closer computer-like experience.

The display screen and the phone can be used independently, so you can privately check your phone and reply to any notification from the phone itself without interferring with the live connection.
