The European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) recently received Samsung’s trademark registration for Dex Pad. This registration affirms that the South Korean manufacturing giant will launch these smartphones with a new Dex accessory. Considering the name change, the new Dex accessory should come with slight changes from the former. Rumors have it that the Dex Pad works more like a wireless charging pad and users do not necessarily have to dock their phones. This accessory will definitely improve the overall performance of the Galaxy S9/S9+, however, there would be an additional cost for purchasing the Dex Pad which might turn off some users.
