The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 has a very different feature from the rest of the mobile devices, Samsung Dex. With the help of a component, a screen, keyboard and mouse, we can convert the mobile interface into a computer interface to handle it in a more intuitive way. Until now, we needed a specific accessory that was sold separately and that included a small fan to prevent overheating. The Galaxy Note 9 no longer requires it and we can acquire a much more versatile accessory.
To convert the Galaxy Note 9 into a computer we only need an adapter that goes from USB C to HDMI. This adapter will connect to the terminal via USB C. Afterwards, we just need to connect an HDMI cable to the port and to the monitor. The interface will automatically detect this coupling and will open on the big screen. The Galaxy Note 9 can be used as a tracpkad, so we don't need a mouse. The company is starting to sell an official adapter for about 25 euros at the change and it even supports 4K and 60HZ screens, although this is not yet sold in our country. Even so, we can use the accessory from another manufacturer.

Do you have a Dex base? You can also use it
Of course, it seems that this type of accessory only works for the Galaxy Note 9, and not for previous devices of the company. Additionally, the Note 9 is also compatible with the other Dex bases. Therefore, if you already have one, you don't need to buy this adapter. The Dex base is more complete, since it even has an Ethernet and USB connection to place a keyboard and mouse. Of course, it is much more expensive (from 50 to 100 euros). The USB C to HDMI adapter does not include more ports, so we must use the wireless connection. If we want to connect a peripheral it will have to be through the use of Bluetooth on the terminal.
