Samsung has continued to innovate and enhance the functionality of its popular S Pen used in its Galaxy Note smartphones. The stylus is used as a way for the company to differentiate its phablets from rivals and provide users with the familiar feeling of using pen and paper. The S Pen isn't your ordinary stylus either, it offers advanced functions through built-in hardware that seamlessly works with Samsung's software, allowing you to do way more than just tapping the screen.
Classic note-taking is modernized with the enhanced S Pen. With just a click of a button, great functions are available through Air Command. You won't have to switch between screens, memorize commands or look up different menus.
- S Finder: Search for keywords in items on your phone, such as emails, text messages and files.
- Scrapbook: Keep track of what catches your eye. Clip images with the S Pen and pin them to a virtual bulletin board.
- Action Memo: Take handwritten notes with the S Pen, then compose emails or text messages by turning your handwriting into text.
- Screen Write: Capture screenshots, add your annotations and save or share them with others.
- Multi Window: Overlay and resize a floating app over another app, so you could watch a YouTube video without leaving the webpage you are reading.
