I am a loyal user of Samsung and have every device of Samsung for the Samsung ecosystem. However, since Samsung laptops are not available in Australia there is no way to fully be in the ecosystem (which I badly want). Since my Android laptop cannot be fully incorporated in the system, I use my tablet and laptop independently which is very inefficient as I cannot use a lot of the features making the tablets less useful than advertised.

Honestly, not having the laptops really limits the range and effectiveness of other Samsung devices. There is only so few ways I can use my tablet and phone together. With laptops I can fully use all features of every device together.

I really hope that laptops can be brought to Australia. 

Are there any plans of doing that?

**I believe that many people who live in Australia have the same issue with this.**

Would it help if you used Google/gmail sync features plus Google software like Google docs? Another slightly more complex solution would be to use remote device access.

Yes thank you, I do know of a few online sync options such as Google and One Drive. However, they are not an issue to me. The features I am talking about are multicontrol and the ability to copy and paste, open tabs, and continue where you left off across these devices. A lot of the times if I have an image on the tablet and want to put it on my laptop I have to save the image and send via samsung flow which requires me to open the app on the laptop and connect it to the tablet just to send one image. If I had the laptop, it would be as simple as copying and dragging it across to the laptop, and vice versa. https://youtu.be/edUGm8pMw9c Samsung's video on the multicontrol feature.

Another little feature is the Samsung Galaxy Buds automatically switching to the device playing audio. I am using this with my tablet and phone but have to manually reconnect to the laptop every time if I want to listen to laptop audio.

As a student, every little feature like these really helps with productivity and efficiency. It is too clunky as it is now, too many steps and time consuming. Which makes me reluctant to use these devices. It's unfortunate that we can not fully unlock the potential of these devices just because we are missing the laptop.

Would be great to bundle the book 3 or 4 with the s24 and s24 instead of the watch and ear buds

Samsung has opened up Quick Share to Intel based computers.
Search the windows play store for it, and see if your current laptop/pc is supported.
