Being able to effortlessly move your desktop PC is simply not a reality because of the stationary design that they have, so the [Samsung](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-galaxy-book3) Galaxy View desktop tablet offers a view into what the experience would be like if this wasn't so.

The Samsung Galaxy View is an oversized tablet that acts as a desktop PC when required and a tablet during times when that's what you'd like to use. This enables users to keep the number of devices they need in their ownership quite low in order to maximize functionality and keep their roster of equipment slim.

The Samsung Galaxy View desktop tablet is the design work of Jeffrey Borges Jones and Howard Nuk, and is outfitted with ample speakers and a [pivoting stand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-smart-monitor-swing).
