IT all comes together with Samsung

- The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - As defined by the Merriam Webster Dictionary, convergence is the coming together of two or more things at the same point.

In information technology, however, convergence also refers to the way devices work together seamlessly to raise the value and functionality of these devices as they work in one ecosystem.

While other monitors have been slowly relegated to display images from personal computers, the Samsung Smart Station Monitor is the hub for connecting multiple devices to your notebook PC.

With a single USB connection, you can dock your notebook PC to your 24-inch Full HD monitor, keyboard, mouse, external hard disk or printer.

The monitor is also Mobile Hi-Definition Link (MHL) enabled. This will allow you to display your mobile phone screen on the monitor, allowing you to enjoy mobile content, gaming and apps on a bigger screen. 

Another feature of Smart Station is Mobile Control. While you are docked to your mobile phone, you can use the keyboard and mouse to control your mobile phone. Just drag the mouse over to the mobile phone and you can type out messages or posts via the regular keyboard.
