This looks like the feature provided by Motorola on their Atrix series called as LapDock.

      Gods I hate Samsung.

        I would like to thank Ubuntu Edge for inspiring other brands such as Windows Phone and now Samusng even though it didn't see the light due to lack of funding.

        Always Linux amuse us with amazing innovations

            Get ready for this cost to cost at least 850-900$ at launch.

              Anonymous, 03 Jan 2017useful for minority,useless for majority. just buy windows.... moreOk. You go buy windows. I go buy some doors for you then show you the way out. According to your logic, why buy cars, just use your legs. Throw that old mindset out of the 'windows'. Fyi, it is for minority. Dont be jealous if you are the majority who wont be using this. I doubt 8gb ram they planning to use gonna lags.

                  It's probably their new Windows 10 phone. Unless you use an x86 processor and give full desktop experience a Windows phone is lacking and worthless compared to an Android phone.

                    Somehow Samsung managed to emulate Windows 10 inside android phone.. Samsung is incredible WOW

                      Come on Samsung, offer Windows 10 in S8 with this feature.

                            [deleted post]Lol, I don't even like Samsung. You should pay more attention. 2016 was the first year that ARM chips performed in all relevant tests better than low end laptop chips. You know the ones that most people own.

                            i5 and i7 grade performance is next and at this rate it will be reached. You silly fools would continue calling names though becuase you *really* don't follow the pace of technology on embedded systems...

                              AnonD-548804, 03 Jan 2017I know what it is but what's the point in it?Portable PC. Thats the point. You dont need to carry a monitor, mouse, keyboard around. You just plug it in at any available monitor. Its for businessmen mostly. If you are just a kid or non working adult or have a non-professional job; its not for you. If you want more reason and purposes of this thing, go ask Windows Continuum users. Im sure they gladly tell you everything.

                                nanoprog, 03 Jan 2017yeah, motorola atrix didn't exist..Ya, but not the same thing I think. Atrix was app specific only and was not globally where the whole OS multiwindowed is on a desktop screen mouse keyboard. Points well noted though.

I wrote "it's faster than most laptops". Most people don't own high flying i7s, most people's laptops run lowly i3s. Just look at the sales' volume. Next time don't reply to me again, at least not until you actually read my comment.
