Samsung has announced a new app called Linux on Galaxy that works with its DeX docking station to bring a full Linux desktop experience to Galaxy Note8, Galaxy S8 and S8+ smartphone users.
Comments from IDC sounded skeptical saying the concept is "interesting at best", but "the No. 1 challenge is that there is no public infrastructure for where you can dock your phone, other than in your home or office... Where you really would like to have that is at a hotel, at an airport, etc."
Samsung is touting their DeX environment as "supremely better than all the earlier attempts to have a smartphone docking into a big screen".

The one at the bottom of the page is this little one with the blue oval:

That is NOT the one that shows up as the next image. The "next image" one is just the word, over a transparent background. It has this URL:

It comes from here:

So where in the page is that specified? I don't see it in the wikitext. I just see a normal bit of wikitext to specify an image.

I found it. It was inside the other template: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Samsung_Electronics [wikipedia.org]
You only see it when you expand it.
