Second Screen mode turns the tri-fold device into a Miracast display, with an optional Windows app adding controls for layout and connectivity.
Overview
- The Galaxy Z TriFold supports a Second Screen feature that lets it function as a wireless external display for a laptop or desktop via Miracast.
