The latest Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 not only offer intelligent AI features and personalization options but sleeker, more durable displays that stand the test of time.¹ Impossible to be created overnight, these enhancements are a result of continuous efforts from Samsung developers to provide the best display experience possible.

Samsung Newsroom spoke with Jason Noh, a developer in the Display Group, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics, to learn more about the innovative foldable displays in the Galaxy Z series.

The First Foldable Display Marks the Beginning of Innovation

Samsung’s foldable innovation dates back to 2008 when the company first embarked on foldable display research. The journey toward this new technology was not easy for the display team as the screen needed to be folded while maintaining optimal display quality and functionality.

▲ Jason Noh

“We carried out studies on foldable displays and conducted countless experiments way before our first foldable device launched,” explained Noh. “Although we all shared a strong desire to become the pioneer of foldable smartphones, it wasn’t easy. Our team had to create a high-quality display that could be folded but resistant to debris — which meant we had to change the plate supporting the display.”

To achieve this, the developers carried out extensive research to lay the groundwork for Samsung’s first foldable smartphone. This included inventing a metal plate that protected the display from external substances and developing a Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) that helped the display panel maintain its folding capabilities in various conditions and environments. With that, Samsung unveiled the first Galaxy Fold in 2019.

Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6: An Accumulation of Mastery in Display Technology

▲ Galaxy Fold

In the six years following the introduction of the initial Galaxy Z Fold, Samsung devoted to providing the best product experience by focusing on three essential factors — a crystal-clear display, durability and productivity. Through a deep understanding of consumer insights accumulated over the years, the Galaxy Z series has constantly evolved to provide new features. This year, the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 have once again exceeded consumer expectations through an enhanced screen, improved durability and maximized productivity.

An Immersive Viewing Experience

The Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 boast an unmatched viewing experience thanks to their large foldable screens. In particular, the Galaxy Z Flip6’s clear display integrates Samsung’s proprietary Ultra Thin Glass (UTG) material with Infinity Flex Display — a technology first adopted in the Galaxy Z Flip.

▲ Noh explains the Galaxy Z Flip’s foldable display.

“We wanted to bring the same touchscreen experience from bar-type smartphones to foldable devices. This continued commitment to a better user experience led to Samsung’s first foldable glass display,” explained Noh. “With the adoption of UTG, we were able to deliver a clearer display — complete with a premium look and feel that had yet to be seen on a foldable smartphone. UTG has been used ever since.”

The Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 displays are each equipped with a new Protect Layer structure to reduce screen crease compared to their predecessors. Increased adhesive strength in the Galaxy Z Fold6 between display and the set creates a shallower crease to form the flattest display of any Galaxy Z Fold series yet.

To deliver a more immersive display experience, the Galaxy Z Fold6 offers a brighter display of up to 2,600nit. The width of the screen has been expanded by 1.0 mm when folded and 2.7 mm increase when unfolded while the length has been reduced by 1.4 mm. This change in screen size offers enhanced screen usability to display more information horizontally for greater convenience.²

Enhanced Durability Meets Foldables

The displays on the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 are the most durable to date in the Galaxy Z series. Shear Thickening Fluid (STF), a new material that adapts to different amounts of pressure and provides resistance to deformations from impacts, was added to the Protect Layer for enhanced display durability.

▲ (From left) Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6

“STF has been introduced to the latest foldable series to meet the high standards expected by Galaxy users. As a result of this effort, the durability of the foldable panel has been enhanced greatly compared to the previous series,” explained Noh. In addition, the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 come with the water-resistant features³ first implemented on the Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Flip3 — the world’s first water-resistant foldable smartphones. Applied to both the outer part of the display and the hinge, a rubber band surrounds the outer part of the display to prevent liquid from entering and damaging the display.

The latest Galaxy Z series foldables are resistant to dust as well. Sweeper technology in each device utilizes delicately cut optical fibers to protect the display from any external dust and debris that could enter through the gaps between the front of the device and the hinge housing. This sturdy protection from external dust and water gives users peace of mind.

Maximized Productivity With S Pen

While the Galaxy Z Fold series offers several multitasking features via its ultra-large screen, the developers contemplated how the big screen could be utilized more efficiently and conveniently. To enhance multitasking and productivity, the S Pen was adopted for the Galaxy Z Fold series. Now, Galaxy AI features on the Galaxy Z Fold6 are elevated to the next level with the S Pen.

When the S Pen was first introduced to the Galaxy Z Fold, the metal plate material had to be changed to carbon fiber so the digitizers that identify the S Pen could function without interruptions. Located on the left and right side of the display, the digitizers also needed to sense the S Pen on the screen’s folding part with no additional components. Developers overcame this challenge by creating a new solution that allowed the digitizers to recognize the S Pen on the folded part of the screen based on sophisticated calculations.

▲ (From left) Carbon fiber plate and metal plate

With the S Pen, users can utilize productivity features including Circle to Search and Note Assist more smoothly on the Galaxy Z Fold6’s massive screen. These advancements are the result of the developers’ efforts to provide a differentiated device experience.

An Endless Journey Toward the Perfect Display

Despite making significant progress in foldable screens, the Display Group refuses to stop. The developers strive to continue improving display quality.

“As a pioneer of the foldable smartphone, our team has accumulated knowledge and experience on what users expect from this form factor,” said Noh. “To meet those expectations, we will not stop our journey toward the perfect display experience. The Galaxy Z series will constantly undergo improvements to prove Samsung’s title as a trailblazer in foldable smartphones.”

Essential Design, an approach that sees the refinement of a product’s design down to its most fundamental elements, serves as the basic design principle for all of Samsung Electronics’ Galaxy products. The Galaxy Book3 series, Samsung’s latest flagship PC lineup, carries on this legacy of Essential Design.

The Galaxy Book3 series sees the simplified use of materials for product design and focuses only on the essentials. The series’ design may be minimal, but its usability and performance has improved drastically.

Refined Design Led by Flat Lines

The Galaxy Book3 series’ flat design follows the principles of Essential Design, resulting in a unique look for the series. Refined straight lines and minimal surface finishing on the devices’ front captures the distinct design identity of the Galaxy Book series. The whole body of Galaxy Book3 is built using a singular aluminum material for further uniformity and an unwavering design.

A Seamless Screen for Visual Stability

The minimalistic design approach applied to the Galaxy Book3 series’ surface continues on with the products’ screen, too. The entire surface of the screen, including the bezel, consists of a singular glass plane for a refreshingly clean impression.¹ Along with a minimized bezel, the camera and sensors are also hidden underneath the glass to allow users to focus wholly on the screen.

Furthermore, the display’s corners are rounded in a manner similar to Samsung Galaxy’s smartphone and tablet devices for further visual stability and continuity.

Enhanced Usability

The Galaxy Book3 series’ design is filled with elements that enhance not only the external design quality of the product, but also its usability.

One of the biggest changes made when designing the Galaxy Book3 series was the change of display ratio from 16:9 to 16:10. While a 16:9 display ratio is suitable for media consumption, the 16:10 ratio is much better suited for productivity, such as document or video editing tasks.

The change in display ratio results in a larger screen, which in turn enlarges the palm rest beneath the keyboard to give ample space for a bigger touchpad, and while a slim PC profile can sometimes result in reduced port support, the Galaxy Book3 series features a full set of ports while maintaining its slimness.

Precisely-Engineered Details

While users rarely find themselves looking at the underside of their laptop, every part of the Galaxy Book3 series has been meticulously designed including those parts that generally remain unseen. Several device components, including the speaker, antenna, air vent and rubber foot, have been placed on the laptop’s rear side. For instance, in order to mitigate the issue of interference that can occur when an antenna is fitted using metal materials, plastic parts have been applied to its fitting.

As the use of different materials for different parts can result in a shift in overall design consistency, the Galaxy Book3 series’ designers found a way to avoid this by combining the speaker hole and antenna cover into a single slot. While it may look like any usual speaker hole, it also serves as an antenna, an innovation that is a testament to the level of detail put in during the Galaxy Book3 series’ design in order to keep it as unified as possible while elevating the overall design quality.

Authentic Materials

The Galaxy Book3 series’ designers conducted a search for materials that would emphasize the product’s minimalistic form, a search that included extensive research in order to land on right color and texture necessary to truly follow the principle of Essential Design.

The designers also conducted comprehensive research into achieving the ideal texture and glossiness of the products’ metallic surface and by choosing colors that worked well with this texture, their Color, Material & Finishing (CMF) was complete.

With foldable smartphone shipments expected to reach 16 million units worldwide² — an increase of 73% year on year — the form factor is rapidly becoming mainstream, and shipments are expected to grow to 26 million units in 2023. The ease of multitasking on a large screen, and the powerful app optimizations for foldable devices, are helping drive adoption among enterprise users.

Benefits of Foldables for Enterprise Users

As companies shift towards work-from-anywhere policies, they are looking to technology for new ways to maximize productivity. Foldables have particularly attracted the financial services industry, where 74%³ of a sample group of financial advisors say staying connected via mobile apps is important or critical.

“Samsung Galaxy foldable smartphones were created to open up opportunities for new ways to work and explore creativity,” said KC Choi, EVP and Head of Global Mobile B2B Team, MX Business at Samsung Electronics. “This rapid growth in investment demonstrates our enterprise customers’ need for meaningful innovations to enhance workforce productivity.”

The Galaxy Z Fold4 – Samsung’s fourth-generation foldable smartphone — is a multi-tasking powerhouse ideal for business use. Despite its pocket-friendly dimensions, it offers a large, expansive sized screen, making it easier to get things done compared to traditional smartphone screens.

The Galaxy Z Fold4’s expansive screen offers a larger working area, well suited to make the most of features from desktop computers. The perfect tool for juggling multiple tasks and pairs of apps, the PC-like Taskbar enables users to manage, launch and switch between apps, all without interrupting work.

The huge screen space is also a natural fit for working with Multi Windows. The Galaxy Z Fold4 can open up to three apps at once, including two of the same app for side-by-side comparisons. For example, users can respond to Gmail while viewing two Chrome browser tabs, just like working at a desk with multiple screens.

The Galaxy Z Fold4 also adapts to workflow needs. Flex Mode not only provides a hands-free experience for major video conferencing tools, it can now support dedicated e-signature or note-taking capabilities on partner apps using S Pen.⁴

Powerful Partnerships That Enhance the Experience of Foldable Devices

These experiences have been popular across many sectors of businesses and industries. In the current market, competition is fierce, especially in the financial services sector. Professionals need the best tools to help them maintain consistency and routine, even while working remotely.

Their devices must support complex workflows, including alerts, research, charts and portfolios, and give them the power and productivity advantage they need to stay competitive. Working with industry-leading partners, Samsung has enhanced Galaxy Z Fold4’s utility in unique ways, leading to wider adoption of foldables for enterprise use.

According to a recent survey, the Bloomberg Professional app⁵ is the most used financial services app by investment professionals, such as traders, analysts and portfolio managers.⁶ It takes advantage of the Galaxy Z Fold’s unique form factor to enable financial professionals to access Bloomberg’s market data, analytics, news and communications on the go in a more intuitive and immersive way, while preserving the user experience and functionality with which they are familiar. On Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4, the Bloomberg Professional app’s adaptive layout provides for easy continuity and multitasking on the go. Users can effortlessly switch from the cover screen, ideal for quick Instant Bloomberg (IB) conversations, to the large screen that makes it easier to read news stories, monitoring real-time market data, browse portfolios or perform chart analysis. This allows financial professionals to do familiar work in an enhanced way on their foldable device.

DocuSign,⁷ which offers the world’s leading e-signature solution and is used by 24 of the top 25 Fortune 500 Financial companies⁸ has also been optimized for Android 12L. The Galaxy Z Fold4’s takes the hassle out of signing agreements on large screens. Users can now quickly drag and drop email attachments in multi-view mode directly into DocuSign eSignature, seal deals quickly on the go with Samsung’s S Pen⁹ and the dedicated Flex Mode signature.

And, for the financial professionals constantly in and out of the office, DocuSign created a PC-Like experience using Samsung DeX mode. Simply connect the device to a monitor and thanks to DocuSign’s high-resolution support and adaptive design approach, professionals receive the same grade experience for any screen size or orientation.

Samsung also collaborated with IBM¹⁰ to address challenges financial professionals may face helping clients while working from anywhere. IBM iX, the experience design partner within IBM Consulting, worked with a leading financial institution to develop the mobile experience, helping wealth advisors quickly access and manage market and portfolio information. The integration of Samsung DeX and S Pen¹¹ enables users to interact with data, drag and drop files between apps, translate handwriting to text and even capture digital signatures in a full desktop-like environment on their foldable device. Samsung’s philosophy of openness also enabled the incorporation of other popular applications for video conferencing, client contacts, email and schedules within a multi-app interface.

Samsung is committed to working with industry-leading partners to create new mobile experiences and collaborating more closely in coming months to take advantage of ground-breaking technologies like foldable smartphones.

Have you ever wished you could turn your passion into a career?

Today’s youth are eager to forge new career paths for themselves in pursuit of purpose, passion and flexibility. Technology has played a major role in this development, opening the door to unlimited possibilities by affording the workforce of the next generation the power and autonomy to make their work truly their own.

Today, we spotlight three individuals based in Singapore who have taken the path less travelled, and the role played by Samsung Electronics’ Galaxy Tab S8 in boosting productivity and optimizing their work experiences across a range of interesting and unconventional career paths.

Dissecting Lives Through Handwriting

▲ Siti Sulianah

What if there was a way to look into a person’s soul without even having to speak to them? Enter the world of graphology with handwriting expert and Graphologist Siti Sulianah, an individual adept at gleaning insight into personalities through the analysis of handwriting traits such as strokes, pressure and spaces.

What started off as a means of conflict resolution between friends in her youth soon grew into a calling for Sulianah, who today puts her skills to use in a professional capacity at her self-founded graphology company. On top of handwriting analysis, Sulianah provides graphotherapy services — conscious alteration to handwriting to effect a desired change in personality.

The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, with its super-fast 4nm processor and smoothest S Pen yet, not only replicates but elevates the pen-and-paper experience. “I’m very impressed with the S Pen, which is extremely sharp in capturing tiny handwriting details that would require a magnifying glass to examine if they were written on paper,” shared Sulianah. The multi-screen functionality of the tablet also greatly streamlines her analysis process, as annotations and note-taking can be done concurrently and housed within the same device, with minimal disruption to workflow. In addition, graphotherapy consultations are made more effective with live S Pen demonstrations via video call, as compared to static image references in the past.

Bees in Need

▲ Xavier Tan

Drizzled on pancakes or stirred into tea, honey has a way of making every sweet treat a little more delectable. For most, however, the first thought that comes to mind upon seeing a beehive is to call for pest control. This is why Bee Rescuer Xavier Tan hopes to shift the conversation away from bee extermination and instead towards humane methods of bee removal.

An animal lover from a young age, Tan grew to understand the importance of bees as a keystone species, without which the ecosystem would drastically change for the worse. He thus went on to establish a bee rescue organization with the mission of saving the bees through conservation and educational efforts. On top of bee relocation to their gardens, the group is actively involved in raising awareness of beekeeping practices as well as methods of peaceful co-existence.

A powerful all-in-one device with a 12.4” Super AMOLED screen, the Tab S8+ is a device Tan never finds himself without when out on bee rescue missions. Before, during and after shots of these missions are captured with the tablet’s powerful camera and then transformed into informative video content using the tablet’s in-built video-editing functions. “The large display size of the tablet allows me to share my content clearly and effectively with clients and visitors,” shared Tan.

Let’s Talk… to Your Pets

▲ Ezekiel Ong

Have you ever wished you knew exactly what was going on in the head of your furry friend? For Ezekiel Ong, this tacit and intimate understanding of animals forms the basis of his work at his animal communications company, where he receives, interprets and relays information from pets to their owners.

His first foray into the field of animal communication was driven by the need to bid a final farewell to his beloved pet that passed on. Today, Ong strives to help others better understand their pets by acting as a bridge between the two. His work as an Animal Communicator includes helping owners find out more about their pets’ behaviour and well-being, getting in touch with pets who have passed on and conducting animal communication workshops.

The Tab S8 greatly optimizes Ong’s pet consultation process through the computerization of handwritten and typewritten notes enabled by its S Pen and magnetically attached keyboard respectively. Video calls with overseas clients also go off without a hitch thanks to the tablet’s powerful processor and stunning video and audio quality. “The tablet also allows me to carry notes and course materials around with ease, and it features a long battery life that makes lessons very efficient,” shared Ong.

Do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life. Though the adage rings true, pursuing the path less travelled is equal parts exciting and daunting, and requires a tenacity and strength of will exemplified by Sulianah, Tan and Ong. If you’re looking to turn your passion into a profession, why not unlock your fullest potential with the Galaxy Tab S8?

That’s why Samsung Electronics has created the Galaxy Tab S8 series to be the ultimate tool in making any student’s lifestyle more manageable. Pushing the boundaries of what’s possible for a Galaxy tablet, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra combines the largest display and the thinnest bezels with convenient portability, so you can be prepared for whatever challenges you face inside or outside the classroom. Samsung Newsroom has put together this guide to showcase how campus life can become even smarter with the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra.

Takes Notes To Ace Any Class

If you’re having difficulty keeping up with notes during a class or lecture, try using the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra’s split-screen feature to quickly organize¹ all the information thrown your way. You can split your screen into three windows during online classes. For instance, you can open your reading assignment on the left and your notetaking app on the right to conveniently access all the apps you need on a single screen. Thanks to the tablet’s 14.6-inch ultra-large display, your notetaking experience will never feel cramped. Even in split-screen mode, apps are still easy to use, spacious and adjustable to fit your needs.

During important lectures where you can’t miss a single detail, you can also sync the live voice recording to your notes.² Simply press the “record” icon in the notes app when class starts and begin writing. You can easily replay the voice recording and follow along with your notes, conveniently synced to the audio, to help you take in even the most complex information.

Look and Sound Your Best on Every Video Call

The Galaxy Tab S8 series is packed with improved features for video calls, so whether you’re joining an online class or catching up with your classmates, you’ll come across loud and clear. The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra is the first of the Galaxy Tab series to be equipped with a 12-megapixel main camera in the front and an ultra-wide lens for an even wider screen. The Galaxy Tab S8 also comes with the AI-based Auto-Framing feature, which automatically adjusts the camera frame according to onscreen camera movement, such as zooming out or adjusting the angle when someone walks into frame. With the device’s three precision microphones, you can also minimize distractions, reducing background noise for even sharper, clearer audio.

Transform Your Tablet Into a PC

There are times when you just need a laptop, like when you’re completing assignments or preparing to give a group presentation. When this is the case, Samsung DeX³ gives you that PC-like experience, so you can open up multiple app windows at once, just like you would on a PC. Using the DeX Mirroring feature, you can bring your work to the big screen by mirroring the tablet’s DeX window on a TV screen or a monitor. If you have the Book Cover Keyboard for the Galaxy Tab S8 series and a Bluetooth mouse, you can instantly transform your tablet into a working laptop.

Alternatively, you can use the Second Screen⁴ feature to wirelessly connect your Galaxy Tab S8 as a secondary monitor if you already have a laptop. Simply connect the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra to your PC screen and either expand or duplicate the display to push your productivity to the max. With the Galaxy Tab S8, you can work smarter, not harder.

With the newly upgraded S Pen, you can write as smoothly and effortlessly on your tablet as you do on paper. The S Pen has a 30% faster response speed⁵ through a prediction algorithm for a truer pen-to-paper or brush-to-canvas experience. If you’re annoyed by clacking laptop keys or just prefer to write by hand, the S Pen will become your writing utensil of choice.

Find a Hobby You’ll Love

If you want to add a splash of color to your life, why not try drawing using the S Pen? The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra has partnered with Clip Studio Paint for an optimized experience that connects your tablet to your Galaxy smartphone. By activating the Companion Mode in the app and connecting it to your Galaxy smartphone, you can turn your mobile phone into a paint palette and your tablet into a canvas. You can create digital masterpieces and unleash your creativity like never before.

Due to the pandemic, staying at home has become the new normal, driving up the popularity of streaming services.

When I look around me, I’m astounded by how much innovation exists in our world today. Yet I am most excited about the evolution of the smartphone. This single device gave way to new digital industries — to remote work, schooling, entertainment and fitness — and the ability to capture, explore and communicate with anyone, anywhere with the touch of a finger.

The smartphone is a portal to infinite progress. And at Samsung, we have never taken that for granted.

It’s not enough for mobile innovation to just evolve with the world. We have to be a step ahead, so our technology can help transform the way we experience everything around us and make our lives easier. That’s why we constantly push ourselves to break the rules of what a smartphone can do.

Breaking the Rules To Start the Next Chapter in Smartphone History

In 2011, the Galaxy Note merged the convenience and portability of smartphones with the expansive screen and notepad-like functionality of tablets. Some balked at the 5.3-inch display — considered enormous then — but Note created a legacy where a large display is now the standard. The S Pen also surprised everyone. It empowered people to bridge creativity with productivity – whenever inspiration struck, they could quickly write down their ideas and thoughts in Samsung Notes.

In 2019, we dared to redefine smartphones once again. We launched our Galaxy Z Fold series and brought an entirely new form factor to the mobile industry. Our cutting-edge foldable design changed how people used their phones. With Flex mode, video calls are hands-free and easier. And multitasking with multiple windows is also a breeze, as your phone becomes tablet-sized in the blink of an eye. And once again, the industry took notice, with many mobile companies now following in our footsteps to make foldables the next big thing.

Innovating by Listening to Consumers and Taking Note

In a sea of smartphone sameness and iterative updates, our ambition remains firm: to detect the signals that transformation is stirring — by listening to your feedback — and continue to deliver mobile experiences that empower us all to evolve.

We know many of you were surprised when Samsung didn’t release a new Galaxy Note last year. You loved the unparalleled creativity and efficiency of the Galaxy Note series, which enabled you to switch from gaming nirvana to high-octane productivity in the blink of an eye. You raved about the lifelike S Pen, which many say rivals putting ink to paper. And we haven’t forgotten about these experiences you love.

Catalyzing the Next Evolution of Galaxy

For years, Samsung has converted the skeptics who thought our ideas were impossible. Whether it’s a screen that’s too big, a stylus no one knew they needed or a pro-grade camera that could truly bring mobile photography out of the dark.

With every fresh evolution of Samsung Galaxy devices, we have introduced features that redefine the entire mobile category. And we’re about to rewrite the rules of industry once again.

At Unpacked in February 2022, we’ll introduce you to the most noteworthy S series device we’ve ever created. The next generation of Galaxy S is here, bringing together the greatest experiences of our Samsung Galaxy into one ultimate device.

With it, you will own the night — taking the best and brightest photos and videos you’ve ever captured with a phone. You will also dominate the day with power, speed and tools that can’t be found elsewhere. You will enjoy cutting edge-innovations made possible thanks to the smartest Galaxy experience yet. All while feeling good about being part of the most sustainable Galaxy ecosystem. And, yes, you will help Samsung rewrite the future of smartphones once again.

Get ready for the ultimate Ultra experience.

But Samsung’s cutting-edge new foldable solutions couldn’t have been realized without the hard work and collaborative efforts of Samsung’s global network of engineers. Among other accomplishments, these employees were able to incorporate advanced technologies like AI to enable drawing and writing on the Galaxy Z Fold3’s large screen, and to allow the device to convert handwriting in a range of languages into on-screen text with S Pen.

To find out more about just what went into the development of the innovative new S Pen, Newsroom spoke to Olga Radyvonenko from the Visual Intelligence Team at Samsung Research Ukraine.

Q: Can you briefly introduce the Ukrainian Research Institute and the kind of work that goes on there?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the key technologies of our R&D center. Our lab is focused on bringing Samsung users human-centric AI technologies that make input and interaction easy and enjoyable.

Q: The S Pen has now been applied to the Galaxy Z Fold3, making it the first of its kind among foldable smartphones. What role did you play in this process?

The major contributions of our lab to the Z Fold3 were the development of on-device deep learning technologies for handwritten content recognition and the technology for reducing S Pen input latency that combines advances in graphics and AI.

Q: What is the S Pen Software Development Kit? What particular advantages does it bring?

The S Pen Software Development Kit (SDK) is being developed by Samsung researchers and developers from many countries around the world, and we are very proud to be part of this international team. The S Pen SDK provides ways to speed up rendering and to reduce and optimize S Pen input latency. In addition, it comprises smart AI-powered features, such as recognition of handwritten text, shapes, diagrams and handwriting straightening.

Q: Given the unique function of the S Pen on the Z Fold3, was there any function of the S Pen that was developed or expanded specifically for the foldable smartphone?

As the new Z Fold3 has a massive and unique foldable display, we’ve focused on using our AI technology to optimize the S Pen experience as well as improve the latency. Thanks to our point prediction technology powered by deep learning, we are able to predict the next movement of the S Pen to minimize the delay between input and output on the screen of the Z Fold3. This, in combination with the front buffer rendering technology and unique large screen, means that our users can enjoy the most natural handwriting, note-taking and drawing on their Z Fold3.

Q: How many languages does the S Pen now support? What were some of the difficulties of expanding the number of recognized languages for the Z Fold3’s S Pen?

At this moment, the S Pen supports 88 languages in total, 14 of which were newly added in the past year.

Adding a new language for handwriting recognition requires a lot of effort. In order to achieve the world’s best level of recognition quality and speed, we have developed an advanced AI technology. This technology is based on deep learning across millions of users’ samples and language modeling for natural language processing (NLP).

Q: Do you have any special tips for making the most out of the S Pen on the Z Fold3 to share with users?

For those who love writing by hand, the S Pen To Text feature now supports writing with the S Pen directly into text fields. The handwriting is then automatically converted to text. Also, you can edit any printed text with your S Pen – for example, when correcting spacing or inserting words.

One feature that will also interest many users is Neat Shape mode. It can help you to not only draw shapes, but also build a flowchart.

Make sure to check the Tips application and not skip usage tips – there you will discover the newest S Pen and input features, and also learn how to use many other Samsung apps to their fullest potential.

Q: Looking forward, what do you think the future of the S Pen looks like? How might it evolve?

We hope to introduce more ways to support better user experiences by providing even more personalization in the near future. Our mission is to make S Pen input like writing in your notepad with a pen, but better and smarter.

Most of all, I want for as many people as possible to experience the power and convenience of the S Pen and its handwritten input capabilities. It has the potential to enhance input on a wide range of devices. We view the S Pen not only as a cool gadget, but first and foremost as an accessible and useful tool. I hope I will see the S Pen and its features casually used in education, in the workplace and in everyday life. I do believe we are set to see a revolution in input technology.

That’s thanks in large part to the collaboration between Samsung and Wacom, a leading technology company that specializes in interactive pen displays and graphics tablets. For over 10 years the two companies have collaborated to deliver meaningful innovation to customers.

Now, with the Galaxy Book Pro 360, Samsung and Wacom have drawn on a decade of collaboration to redefine the S Pen for modern computing devices. With a more comfortable grip, and an improved writing experience, the advanced S Pen delivers ultimate creativity and productivity for Galaxy Book Pro 360 users.

“We are honored to have supported Samsung’s S Pen and digital ink technology for over 10 years,” said Nobu Ide, President and CEO of Wacom. “The Galaxy Book Pro 360 demonstrates the strengths of our ever-growing collaboration.”

Since launching the first Galaxy Note in 2011, Samsung has been a pioneer in creating mobile experiences for large-screen devices. Realizing that larger screens had potential for entirely new features, Samsung and Wacom joined forces to create the S Pen. With the success of the partnership, Samsung has brought the S Pen to an ever-expanding line-up of devices, including the Galaxy S21 Ultra, and Galaxy Tab S7/S7+.

What started as a stylus for notetaking has evolved into an iconic creativity and productivity tool that allows users to do everything from creating digital art to snapping photos and controlling professional presentations. Along the way, Wacom has played an integral role in the development of the S Pen.

“Our partnership with Wacom has allowed us to expand the possibilities of mobile devices,” said Inkang Song, Vice President and Head of Technology Strategy Group of IT & Mobile Communications Division at Samsung Electronics. “Thanks to our collaborative effort, we’ve delivered truly unique digital pen experiences that have created a loyal Galaxy fan base.”

Those Galaxy fans will find that Samsung and Wacom have once again delivered an unparalleled S Pen experience with the Galaxy Book Pro 360. An upgraded S Pen comes right in the box, delivering a more true-to-life writing and drawing experience.

“The S Pen allows users to get creative, composed, and organized so they can create content and communicate more effectively,” said Ide. “Large-screen devices like the Galaxy Book Pro 360 give people more surface area to play with, giving them more room to create and work.”

Not only do the large display and S Pen give users more ways to create and work, the versatility of the Galaxy Book Pro 360 makes it the perfect device for the new world of remote work and learning.

“With the rapid changes in the way we work and learn, laptops play a more central role in our lives than ever before,” said Song. “The Galaxy Book Pro 360 maximizes productivity and creativity, and with features like the S Pen, users can get more out of their device when taking notes, editing, giving presentations, or creating art.”

Empowering creative expression, the Galaxy Book Pro 360’s S Pen has been made thicker to better mimic a real pen and deliver a more comfortable notetaking experience. Its ergonomic and responsive design also allows artists to sketch and draw more freely. So whether you are jotting down notes during a lecture, taking meeting minutes, or drawing digital portraits, it feels just as comfortable as using a real pen. Best of all, the Galaxy Book Pro 360’s S Pen is compatible with other S Pen-enabled Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy S21 Ultra. However, refining the S Pen’s improved experience wasn’t without its challenges.

While studying the way users engage with the S Pen during intensive tasks on devices like PCs and tablets, Samsung and Wacom discovered there was a need to reduce fatigue when drawing and notetaking, as well as a need to make it feel more like using a real pen.

“We tried various types of materials to coat the pen to keep users from feeling tired after using the S Pen for a long time,” said Ide. “We landed on a special paint ingredient that delivers a better feeling grip. We also refined the pen tip to ensure a reliable writing and drawing experience and more accurate ink line production.”

The Galaxy Book Pro 360’s S Pen represents both a step forward for Samsung’s partnership with Wacom, as well as the next step in digital pen and ink technology. As both companies continue to innovate, the future of the S Pen is more promising than ever. In addition to developing more powerful, and versatile S Pens, Samsung is continuously expanding the range of compatible devices.

“We have worked closely with Wacom to deliver meaningful innovation for the S Pen. Our partnership will continue to grow as we create more innovative devices with S Pen support,” said Song. “Thanks to our collaboration, the S Pen has become an iconic part of the Galaxy experience, and we are always thinking about ways to add value to our customers. From smartphones, to tablets and PCs, Galaxy fans can expect to see more devices with S Pens so they can be productive and creative wherever they go.”

Since then, the S Pen has undergone multiple innovations to transform it from a mere stylus into an independent device of its own. For example – you no longer need to rely on just your smartphone to take a picture; the S Pen can do that for you.

The 10 years that have passed since the debut of the S Pen have been filled with countless innovations and challenges. Follow along with us as we chart the evolution of this significant stylus, from its debut as a simple smartphone accessory to its latest form as its own singular category of device.

Identity: How the S Pen has Taken on Real Pen-Like Qualities

The S Pen is designed to provide the experience of writing with a real pen. Since its debut with the first Galaxy Note device in 2011, the S Pen has continued to provide improved pressure sensitivity from 256, 1024, and 2048 levels to a remarkable 4096 sensitivity level. Pressure sensitivity determines how much you can vary the width of the lines you draw with your S Pen; the higher it is, the more precisely the stylus will respond to your control. The S Pen’s high pressure sensitivity allows you to control the stroke weight of your stylus as you apply varying amounts of pressure to your screen, and the diameter of the S Pen’s tip has also been reduced over the years from 1.6mm to 0.7mm so as to allow for delicate strokes when drawing.

When it comes to notetaking, every user has their own habits, be it using a specific highlighter to mark important passages in a text or preferring a slim pen tip for writing. The S Pen, which initially provided four pen types – Pen, Pencil, Brush and Highlighter – today offers a wide variety of pen options, including Calligraphy and Fountain pen options. The true-to-life S Pen experience even comes with a different writing sound for each pen option you choose, and the sound effect of a pen cap closing when the S Pen is re-inserted into the device provides a satisfying, realistic feel, too. Furthermore, the eye-dropper tool, which makes it easy to lift colors from within a Note, has also been added for easy pen color customization.

As the S Pen continued to evolve, a built-in battery was added for optimized usage and user convenience. Users need simply plug their S Pen back into their device to automatically charge it; Galaxy Note20 users can enjoy a fully charged S Pen in just 7 minutes, with a standby time of 24 hours.¹

Further to these innovations, it is the S Pen’s response time that truly grants it that life-like writing experience. In one of Samsung’s latest mobile devices, the S Pen features AI technologies that bolster the pen’s acceleration and gyro sensors in order to predict pen movement and improve accuracy, resulting in a response time that is 80% faster than the previous model. Combined with a 120Hz display, this faster S Pen provides a remarkably smooth user experience.

Performance: Evolving from a Simple Stylus to a Pen

Over the past 10 years, the S Pen has developed into a versatile pen with a wide range of features. One such highlight of this evolution is the S Pen’s Air Command menu. When you eject the S Pen or click its button, a series of essential S Pen feature icons appear on-screen. These days, the Air Command menu emerges in a line, as opposed to the fan shape that earlier models featured, in order to display more icons at once. Users can even customize the actions and icons that appear so as to enjoy effortless and instant access to their most frequently used features.

Colorful messages written down using the Screen off memo feature

Another notable S Pen functionality is the Screen off memo function, which was included to broaden the horizon of quick notetaking. This feature lets users write their notes down directly onto the lock screen once they have popped out their S Pen. The resulting Note is then kept on the Always On Display, or saved to Samsung Notes, and over the years, this feature has seen more options for pen tips, colors and canvas size included to help you capture your inspiration in real time.

The Galaxy Note9’s S Pen is powered by a Super Capacitor, which provides ultra-fast charging and supports Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE)

Following the application of various improvements and innovations since its inception, the S Pen has evolved to truly became a device of its own. The revolutionized S Pen features Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) connectivity, meaning that users can control their music, camera app and more directly from their S Pen within a certain radius – similar to a remote control.

In recent years, the S Pen has only seen more expansions to its scope. The introduction of S Pen Air actions allows users to control their smartphone’s applications by pressing their S Pen’s button. With Air actions, you can harness intuitive actions to switch between camera and shooting modes, zoom in or out of a shot and execute a variety of other convenient functions – all with customizable gestures.

With the very latest S Pen models, gesture control has only gotten easier with the introduction of five Anywhere actions. Users can now customize actions for the Back, Home, Recent App, Smart Select and Screen Write commands, making the S Pen more helpful for device control than ever before.

Design: Write Intuitively, With Style

From a rounded form to a flat symmetrical design to a unibody type, Samsung has constantly been refining the design of the S Pen for more seamless pen handling and the most comfortable writing experiences possible. As a result, the S Pen has developed to be an ergonomic pen that allows users a relaxed grip. Today’s S Pen boasts a sleeker appearance thanks to its elegant, unibody design, and its very latest iteration is the lightest and thinnest S Pen yet, coming in at just 3.04g and 5.8mm.

Galaxy Note9 packaging featuring S Pen imagery

The development of an S Pen that came in a range of color options came about to satisfy those users looking to showcase their personality through their devices. Each color option even matched the corresponding device’s S Pen slot. One such highlight saw a clear ocean-blue device paired with a vivid yellow S Pen, with the corresponding packaging summarizing the evolution of the S Pen so far by featuring the stylus on the front of its box to establish that the S Pen truly is the key identifier of Samsung’s smartphone products.

In order to provide users with the most lifelike pen experience possible, Samsung has been working with a range of pen makers in order to provide different types of S Pen. One result of these efforts is the Lamy Safari Stylus S Pen, a hybrid between the classic S Pen and the world-famous fountain pen brand’s signature product that featured a thinner nib for more precise writing experiences. Another unique S Pen product came about through a collaboration with South Korea’s national ballpoint brand, Monami. This S Pen featured several features bespoke to a Monami pen, including a nib that could be safely stored when not in use. Such collaborations provide users with unique color and design preferences more choice when it comes to customizing their own S Pen experiences.

Ecosystem: Diversifying the S Pen’s Canvas Options

The Galaxy Tab S7 series’ S Pen

These days, you can enjoy the versatility of the S Pen on larger screens such as tablets and laptops as well as on your smartphone. Samsung’s Galaxy Tab A and S series include an S Pen, as does the Galaxy Book, allowing users to take advantage of their S Pen on increasingly larger canvases. The S Pen models included with Samsung’s tablets and laptops have been developed differently to those developed for smartphones, featuring a rounded, unibody design and a glossy finish.

Users of Galaxy Tab S6 and S7 devices can easily store their S Pen on the side and back (respectively) of their tablets thanks to their magnetic storage feature, making it easier to keep track of your S Pen and also providing a simple way for you to charge your S Pen.

The expansion of the S Pen ecosystem also comes with more opportunities for pro-level S Pen usage. The Galaxy Tab S7 is the first to come pre-loaded with Clip Studio Paint, a professional drawing app for illustration, webtoon and animation production, Noteshelf, a dedicated note-taking app, and Canva, a graphic design app. Accordingly, the S Pen is today playing a key role in transforming the tablet into a device capable of servicing any user’s tastes and interests.

The S Pen has become the key identifying feature of the Galaxy Note series and Samsung’s latest tablet line-ups, but this has been taken a step further following its launch along with the Galaxy S21 Ultra earlier this year. The very latest Galaxy S line device provides users with such S Pen benefits as drawing, notetaking and video editing; S21 Ultra users can take advantage of the delicate touch granted by the S Pen for precise and elaborate video editing capabilities unachievable by human fingers alone. The inclusion of the S Pen in an S series device is an innovation that improves both device portability and productivity, and going forward, Samsung is determined to bring the outstanding performance of the S Pen into a wider range of categories for more seamless mobile experiences.

Since its conception, the S Pen has been a landmark innovation. An elegant instrument that lets users create to their heart’s content on their digital screens, the evolution of this delicate stylus over the past decade has seen the S Pen grow into an independent smart device of its own. Stay tuned to find out how the S Pen is set to develop further and provide users with even more means of self-expression.

Following a range of ecosystem-empowering updates that came to Galaxy Tab S7 and S7+ last month, several new exciting updates are set to provide users with even more enjoyable S Pen and Galaxy Buds Pro experiences.

Do More With Your S Pen

As part of a software update coming in Q1 2021,¹ you will be able to enjoy more continuous experiences with your S Pen. Text box areas conventionally serviced with keyboards – such as address boxes – will now be able to be filled in using your S Pen.² This means that anything you write in them will instantly be converted into digital text, including punctuation marks – you need to simply draw a ‘v’ between words to leave a space and draw ‘⌒’ to connect separate words.

For more natural note-taking experiences in Samsung Notes, a new pen type is also coming as part of this upcoming software update. Once selected,³ the ‘Pen to text’ option lets you jot down your handwritten notes and will instantly convert them into digital text.

Available in over 80 languages⁴ and able to detect any punctuation and spacing, the ‘Pen to text’ option removes any need for you to put down your S Pen when using Samsung Notes and provides you with more typing tool choices.

Simply Snap, Scan, and Edit With Samsung Notes

Those who use their Galaxy Tab S7 and S7+ to scan documents will appreciate being able to scan documents using the Camera app on their devices. As part of the latest update, this tool just got much easier to access for those looking to scan and edit a document in Samsung Notes. Simply tap the ‘Attach’ icon in the app, scan your document, and get to work making notes directly on the scanned document.

Enjoy Multi-dimensional Sound With 360 Audio

These days we are all finding ourselves spending more time than ever before enjoying videos and other multimedia content at home on our personal devices. Introduced alongside the Galaxy Buds Pro,⁵ the 360 Audio feature lets you enjoy 360-degree surround sound when watching a video on your Galaxy Tab S7 or S7+. The intelligent motion-tracking sensor will pinpoint the direction of your media’s sound as you enjoy content on your Tab S7 or S7+. In sync with your head movements, the sound volumes of the earbuds will adjust to provide you with a powerful, immersive audio experience.

*The scenario shown above has been simulated for the purpose of this video.

⁵ The 360 Audio feature is available on Galaxy smartphones and tablets running One UI 3.1 or above. Supported device models include Galaxy S20 series, S20 FE, Note20 series, Note10 series, Z Fold, Z Fold 2, Z Flip, Tab S7 and S7+, Tab S6 Lite and Tab S6. Feature availability may vary by application.

“Galaxy S21 Ultra is another example of how Samsung is driving meaningful innovation forward to give people personalized experiences that enrich their lives and empower them to express who they are,” said TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile Communications Business, Samsung Electronics. “Given how indispensable technology has been to our lives during these times, we wanted to take another leap forward and push the boundaries of what a smartphone can do.”

The Galaxy S21 Ultra is the newest chapter in the Galaxy S series’ decade-long legacy of delivering cutting-edge mobile experiences. It’s built for users who demand top-of-the-line technology to stay connected with the people and things that matter most. Galaxy S21 Ultra joins the new Galaxy S series of devices and takes every part of that S21 experience to the next level.

Incredible Innovation Housed in Head-Turning Design

Galaxy S21 series unveils a bold new style that sets it apart from other smartphones. It introduces an all-new, iconic Contour Cut Camera housing that seamlessly blends into the device’s metal frame for a sleek, yet striking, aesthetic. Galaxy S21 Ultra available in Phantom Black and Phantom Silver and it is coated in a luxurious haze finish for an all-around sophisticated and timeless look. Galaxy S21 Ultra also has three Exclusive Samsung.com Colorways- Phantom Titanium, Phantom Navy, and Phantom Brown and offers improved durability with Corning^® Gorilla^® Glass Victus, the toughest Gorilla Glass yet.

Galaxy S21 Ultra is the largest member of the Galaxy S21 series with a 6.8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display². It is our most intelligent screen yet. For the first time, users no longer have to decide between the smoothness of a 120Hz refresh rate and a Quad HD+ display — on S21 Ultra, you can choose both. The screen’s refresh rate adjusts to the content you’re viewing from 10Hz to 120Hz to ensure you enjoy the best image while staying power efficient to stretch your battery life even further. Compared with the Galaxy S20, S21 Ultra offers a 25% brighter³ picture at a 1,500nits of peak brightness, the brightest on a Galaxy smartphone. With a 50% improved contrast ratio⁴, it delivers crystal-clear, immersive images, even when outside. And like the Galaxy S21 and S21+, Galaxy S21 Ultra has Eye Comfort Shield⁵ to help reduce eye fatigue.

Samsung’s Best-in-Class Camera Experience

Galaxy S21 Ultra delivers with our most advanced pro-grade camera system, so that you can capture stunning, studio-quality photos in various lightings and settings, or shoot and edit videos with a toolbox of new AI-powered features that elevate every shot.

It has a quad rear camera (ultra-wide, wide and dual tele-lenses) that features a upgraded 108MP pro sensor, from which you can capture 12-bit HDR photos with 64 times richer color data and more than three times wider dynamic range⁶. For the first time on a Galaxy smartphone, you can shoot in 4K at 60fps across all lenses including front and rear four lenses, so you can shift to a different perspective with the same quality. Plus, with a 12-bit RAW file option⁷, you won’t miss a single detail when editing photos.

When zooming in on S21 Ultra, you don’t have to worry about sacrificing clarity. The Galaxy S21 Ultra features 100x Space Zoom which is powered by Samsung’s first-ever Dual-tele lens system – one optical 3x and one optical 10x both equipped Dual Pixel(2PD) AF – so you can capture clear shots even when you are away from the action.

Galaxy S21 Ultra’s improved Bright Night sensor is Samsung’s biggest leap yet in low-light photography. With improved Night Mode, noise reduction and 12MP Nona-binning technology, you can capture challenging shots – like a dimly-lit room, or a landscape at night – quickly and with excellent quality.

Smart, Hyper-Fast Connections Across Devices

Galaxy S21 Ultra continues Samsung’s legacy of delivering trailblazing technology like Ultra-wideband (UWB) and introduces new connectivity capabilities that will transform the way you interact with your devices.

Galaxy S21 Ultra users expect the flagship smartphone experience to take creative expression and productivity to the next level. That’s why, for the first time on any S Series device, Samsung is bringing the fan favorite S Pen experience to the Galaxy S21 Ultra with Wacom’s technology⁸. From drawing to note-taking to editing photos and signing documents, now you can unlock the power of the S Pen on the Galaxy S21 Ultra. Use an existing S Pen from a Galaxy Note or Galaxy Tab or purchase an S Pen separately on its own or with a compatible case.

For better and faster connectivity, Galaxy S21 Ultra is one of the first smartphones to support Wi-Fi 6E⁹. You will be able to enjoy more bandwidth and a faster internet connection¹⁰, so you can stream and share content in the blink of an eye. With hyper-fast, ultra-low latency 5G, S21 Ultra is built to provide fast video downloading, smooth video conferencing and streaming¹¹.

Thanks to the Ultra-wideband capabilities (UWB) embedded in Galaxy S21 Ultra and S21+, you will be able to use your Galaxy S21 device to automatically unlock compatible car doors without pulling out your keys¹². With the UWB-enabled Galaxy S21 Ultra and Galaxy S21+, you can also use AR finder to drop virtual messages that let other Galaxy smartphone users know you need help searching for a lost item¹³.

And with SmartThings on Android Auto¹⁴, you can also use your Galaxy S21 series to control smart devices in your home, from your car. By connecting your Galaxy S21 to your Android Auto compatible car, you can turn on your porch lights or even raise the temperature of your thermostat before you return home, all from your car.

And because you need uninterrupted, long-lasting connections across your entire ecosystem of connected devices, the Galaxy S21 Ultra employs Dual Bluetooth^® technology that helps your connected devices like Galaxy Buds Pro¹⁵ consume less battery with a stable connection.

Performance and Protection You Can Count On

The ground-breaking camera, display and connectivity capabilities of the Galaxy S21 Ultra are powered by the most advanced chipset in a Galaxy device. It offers faster speed¹⁶, advanced computing and greater energy efficiency. And when the battery gets low, Galaxy S21 Ultra can reach a 50% charge¹⁷ in just 30 minutes¹⁸.

We rely on our smartphones more than ever, which is why protecting sensitive information is more important than ever. Galaxy S21 is secured by Samsung Knox Vault, Samsung’s own proprietary chipset level (SoC) security platform. By adding tamper-resistant secure memory to our secure processor, Samsung Knox Vault enables S21 to add a new layer of protection.

Galaxy S21 also introduces a new tool to protect and monitor your privacy. You can safely remove location metadata from photos before sharing. With Galaxy S21’s all-new Private Share function, you can also control who gets access to the content you send, and how long it’s available¹⁹.

Optional Samsung Care+ Coverage

Samsung provides creators, thinkers and doers with the tools they need to do more and be more, and nowhere is that clearer than with the Galaxy Tab S6. To show off exactly what this powerful tablet has to offer, Samsung partnered with former professional football player – and current social media phenomenon – Spice Adams.

For years, football fans knew Adams for his skills on the field, but now, fans know him for his alter ego: Cream E. Biggums, a man on a journey to make it as a professional basketball player. To help Cream grab the attention of professional basketball scouts, Samsung paired him up with its ultra-slim 2-in-1 tablet, the Galaxy Tab S6, to help him take his character – and game – to the next level.

Through the course of an intimate Q&A, Cream outlined his daily routine, his future, and why the Galaxy Tab S6 is the perfect tool for creating engaging and entertaining content for his millions of followers. Read on to learn more about Cream’s pivot to basketball stardom, and don’t forget to check out the latest video on his YouTube channel.

What’s a day in the life of Cream E. Biggums look like?

Cream E. Biggums: Like any elite athlete, I start the day by downing seven raw eggs as I watch the sun rise. After that, I hit the gym and knock out some standard drills – shooting 6,000 consecutive free throws, grinding out two straight hours of high-knees, and then completing anywhere between five and seven sit-ups. Around noon, once I’ve finished rehearsing my draft speech, I head back to the film lab to crank out the content that the fans crave.

How important is your technology to you?

Cream E. Biggums: I wouldn’t be where I am today without it. All the attention I’ve gotten –from fans, the general public, rival players – is thanks to my adept use of technology. My social media strategy is on point. Plus, I need video to watch myself over and over again. To put it simply, because I’m the best, I expect my technology to be the best, too.

What would you say you like the most about the Galaxy Tab S6?

Cream E. Biggums: The Galaxy Tab S6 has become one of the most important members of the Cream E. Biggums team. With a plethora and barrage of features, I’ve used it to replace my video guy, my data guy, and my social media guy. I don’t need them anymore, because the Galaxy Tab S6 lets me connect, create, experience, and share – all in one place.

More specifically, it’s all about the S Pen. I’ve made a lot of hoop mixtapes in my time, but these ones outshine all the rest. The S Pen lets me diagram plays in real-time, add emphasis exactly where I want it, and so much more. When the scouts see what I’ve been cooking up, all eyes are going to be on my one-of-a-kind form, and that’s entirely thanks to my amazing technique and the amazing S Pen.

Also, I’m loving that Super AMOLED display – man! It’s the only thing that can make my crossover look as clean on screen as it does in person. And the camera is crystal clear, which means that wherever I go, my followers can go too.

What’s next for Cream E. Biggums?

Cream E. Biggums: Besides a record-breaking contract? Probably a manicure – you gotta look good to play good.

In the center of Paris earlier this year, a unique sight caught the eye of visitors as they passed through the city’s famous Place de la Concorde – a Samsung Electronics billboard written entirely in the Korean company’s native alphabet, Hangeul.

October 9^th is Hangeul Day in Korea, with this year marking the 573^rd annual celebration of the Korean alphabet’s invention and importance. Invented by the 15^th-century Korean monarch Sejong the Great, Hangeul is widely considered the most scientific alphabet existing today, and consists of blocks of syllables that are made up of 24 sounds and shapes – ‘letters’ – made by the mouth.

With its fixed range of letters and logical construction, doesn’t learning Hangeul sound like fun? Of course, learning a new language is no easy feat, but with the Galaxy Note10 and Note10+, you can easily start enjoying learning a new language.

1. Press-to-Learn

For moments when you’re curious about what a certain word is in the language you’re learning but don’t have a dictionary to hand, the Galaxy Note10 and Note10+’s S Pen is here to help. Among other great functionalities, the S Pen allows users to instantly translate words on their smartphone’s screen simply by hovering over them. This convenient feature not only applies to words written in Samsung Notes memos, but also text in things like image files, articles and press releases.

2. Make Notes Anytime, Anywhere

When you set out to learn a new language, practice makes perfect, and ensuring that you are constantly honing your writing ability is a surefire way to master a new script in no time.

Screen off memo is a handy feature of the Galaxy Note10 and Note10+ that lets you use the S Pen to draw or write on your smartphone’s display even when its screen is off. If you find yourself without pen and paper, or without the time to unlock your phone to access its full capabilities, Screen off memo is the best way to stay active with your practice. This means that wherever or whenever you encounter a new word or phrase you’d like to keep for later, you can simply make a note of it on your device.

On the Galaxy Note10 and Note10+, Screen off memo features various color options to provide users with a more personalized note-taking experience when learning a new language. Note down a new word, get in some quick script practice or copy down a phrase at a moment’s notice – your latest practice memo begins from the moment you take your S Pen out of the device.

3. Scribble & Save

Samsung Notes is your one-stop ideas app, which lets you review and edit previous notes as well as add new ones. If you’ve jotted down a new phrase using Screen off memo, you can pull it up on Samsung Notes to refresh your memory and continue along your language-learning journey.

While Samsung Notes provides a great hub for keeping track of your progress, repetition is key when retaining a new language, and so to help you work on and memorize your latest linguistic memos from a Word document, the notes you take down with the evolved S Pen can be instantly converted from handwriting to text.

To create this instant conversion feature, Samsung developed a handwriting database from hundreds of thousands of handwritten sentences from which a handwriting recognition model was developed using deep learning technology. This feature works for scripts that aren’t your mother tongue, as well, as Samsung Notes can support 62 different languages.

4. Have Fun!

The Galaxy Note10 and Note10+ come with even more ways for you to express your creativity, not least of which is AR Doodle, a fun way to get in some language practice at the same time as creating content to make your friends laugh.

With AR Doodle, you can use your S Pen to add text or drawings to any video that will then intelligently animate based on the content, so why not show off your newfound linguistic prowess when customizing a video of a friend using your S Pen and honed linguistic skills? Language learning has never been so entertaining.

The Galaxy Tab S6 reimagines every facet of the tablet experience. By combining enhanced essential features with pioneering capabilities, the tablet delivers a mobile device that’s perfectly in sync with the needs and demands of today’s artistic trailblazers. Here are the top six reasons why creatives will love the Galaxy Tab S6.

Create

Create with Freedom

• Imagine a tool that can cater to all your creative needs. From sketching initial ideas to putting final touches to your work, the tool can adapt to your needs at every stage of the creative process. That’s exactly what Galaxy Tab S6’s S Pen offers.

  Together with Samsung Notes, the S Pen puts a wide range of design and drawing tools, including sketching pencils and watercolor, right in your hands. All it takes is a tap to switch between the tools and change color, which means you can simply focus on bringing your ideas to life.

Multiple Ways to Capture Your Vision

• The S Pen isn’t just for drawings. The stylus’ Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) remote control features let you interact with the tablet from afar to take videos and photos, while S Pen Air actions gives you more intuitive controls to switch cameras, and zoom in and out of objects.

  Galaxy Tab S6’s improved camera setup also makes shooting pro-grade videos and photos easier than ever before. The device comes with Samsung’s first dual camera with Ultra Wide camera on a tablet, which captures scenery as wide as the human eye at 123^o.

Work

 A PC-like Experience

• There are times when the desktop environment can boost productivity. By attaching the dedicated Book Cover Keyboard or enabling the feature via the Quick Panel, Samsung DeX transforms Galaxy Tab S6 from a tablet into a PC-like workstation seamlessly, giving you more flexibility to multitask on the device.

A Powerful Workstation Without the Extra Bulk

• The versatility of the Galaxy Tab S6 makes it the ultimate creative partner. Featuring a touch pad, function keys as well as a free angle stand, the dedicated Book Cover Keyboard transforms tablet into a flexible workstation that can boost your productivity and creativity no matter where you are.

Anywhere

A Lightweight Canvas

• Galaxy Tab S6 is as portable as it is powerful. The 5.7mm-slim device weighs only 420g, which makes it effortless to carry around. Equipped with a 10.5” Super AMOLED display and HDR10+ support, the tablet is a canvas you can bring with you wherever you go.

Unmatched Power

• Inspiration can strike anytime, anywhere. Packed with a long-lasting battery as well as up to 1TB expandable storage, Galaxy Tab S6 lets you follow your passion and create without ever having to worry about running out of juice or space.

To help them get the most out of these convenient features, Samsung Newsroom has compiled a list of ten functions and settings users should consider when setting up their new device. Whether you’re new to the Note series or you’re a long-term fan who’s just upgraded to the latest edition, the features outlined below will help you customize your phone in ways that work for you.

1. Customize Air Actions

As you may have read in our recent in-depth article, the Galaxy Note10’s new S Pen Air actions transform the Note series’ signature tool into a magic wand for controlling your device. The gesture-based controls are completely customizable, which means you can specify exactly which functions you’d like them to trigger within specific apps – such as the Camera, Gallery and Samsung Notes.

For example, using the S Pen to trace a clockwise circle in the Camera app will, by default, trigger the camera to zoom into the frame. However, you can also customize this gesture to change camera modes, switch cameras, zoom out and more, if any of those functions would be more comfortable for you.

You can also specify which frequently used app or feature you’d like to launch when you press and hold the S Pen’s button. This saves users time by making it easier for them to access the functions they need.

2. Adjust Your Side Key Settings

The Galaxy Note10’s sleek and slim design includes an all-new multifunctional key located beneath the volume rocker on the devices’ left-hand side. A double press allows you to instantly open the camera, Bixby or a frequently used app of your choosing, while a press and hold will wake Bixby or pull up the power off menu.

Speaking of, the Galaxy Note10 also introduces more ways for users to power down their device. Now, in addition to pulling up the power off menu with a press and hold of the side key, users can easily turn off their phone by (1) tapping on the power icon integrated into the Quick Panel, (2) pressing and holding the side and volume down keys, or (3) asking Bixby to do it directly.

The side key’s settings can be accessed by swiping down on the Quick Panel, tapping the power icon and selecting ‘Side key settings,’ or by pressing and holding the side key itself.

3. Pick Your Favorite Pens

The Galaxy Note10’s enhanced Samsung Notes app makes it easier for users to get down to work by allowing them to save their favorite pens in an instantly accessible tab.

Once users open Samsung Notes and tap on the scribble icon at the top, they’ll see an icon of a pen marked with a golden star in the bottom left corner of the screen. Tapping that icon will pull up a handy tab containing slots to save up to nine unique pens. With six types of pens, an array of thickness options, and dozens of colors available, it’s easy to find and save the right pen for the job.

Once they’re saved, all it takes to pull up the pen you need when composing a note is a press of the S Pen’s button. Each subsequent press will switch to another favorite pen in your collection.

4. Step Up Your Screen Recordings

The Galaxy Note10’s new Screen recorder not only makes it easy to record what’s on your screen, but also features a picture-in-picture function that allows users, such as vloggers and gamers, to use the front camera to add reactions and commentary to their videos.

To start a recording, simply pull down the Quick Panel and tap on the Screen recorder icon. Once the recording starts, you’ll see icons in the top right corner to enable real-time S Pen annotation, and activate the front camera for the picture-in-picture function.

If you’d like to capture your voice while recording a picture-in-picture video, pull up the feature’s settings by pressing and holding ‘Screen recorder’ in the Quick Panel. There, you’ll find options to (1) record no sound, (2) record media sounds, and (3) record ‘media sounds and mic.’ The settings also allow you to specify precisely how large you would like your picture-in-picture video to be, and select a preferred video quality.

5. Link to Windows

To help users work more comfortably and efficiently, the Galaxy Note10 features Link to Windows integrated directly into its Quick Panel. Now, rather than bouncing from one screen to the other, users can easily connect their Galaxy Note10 to their Windows 10-based PC and mirror their phone’s screen, send and receive messages,¹ and view notifications – as well as up to 25 recent photos – directly from their computer.

Link to Windows can be launched via the Quick Panel or by accessing Settings > Advanced features. Once the user logs in to their Microsoft account, the Galaxy Note10 automatically links to their PC. It’s as simple as that.

6. Connect to Samsung DeX for PC

The Galaxy Note10 takes multitasking to the next level by making Samsung DeX² even easier to use. Now, all it takes to expand your mobile experience to your Windows PC or Mac is a simple USB cable.

Getting started is easy: simply access Samsung DeX’s official website on your PC or Mac to download and launch the Samsung DeX for PC installer, and connect your smartphone to your computer. Once everything’s set up, the program will automatically launch Samsung DeX via a window on your computer’s screen.

From there, you’ll be able to easily drag and drop files between your smartphone and PC, and enjoy more space to manage your go-to apps. In addition, even when it’s connected to your PC, your smartphone can still be used to make phone calls, send messages, and surf the internet.

7. Display Battery Percentage

These days, we’re constantly working, connecting and creating on our mobile devices, which is why we like to keep a close eye on our smartphone’s battery level.

The Galaxy Note10’s default setting is to display battery level via a simple icon on the right side of the status bar. However, users who would like to know exactly how much power they have left can access Settings > Notifications > Status bar, where they’ll find options to display the exact battery percentage, and specify how many notification icons they’d like to see at the top of their screen.

The Galaxy Note10 also features AI software that optimizes battery usage based on how you use your device. To manage your device’s battery optimization, head to Settings > Device care > Battery > Power mode. There you’ll find various power modes for increasing performance and extending battery life, as well as an ‘Adaptive power saving’ function, which enables your Galaxy Note10’s AI to automatically adjust the power mode based on your usage patterns to save power when it’s not needed.

8. Enable Bixby Routines

What if your smartphone were intelligent enough to optimize settings based on your daily routine – switching to Wi-Fi as soon as you got home, and automatically dimming the screen and activating its blue light filter to protect your eyes before you went to bed?

Bixby Routines on the Galaxy Note10 makes all that and more possible. The function utilizes machine learning to learn how you use your phone throughout the day, and recommends personalized routines that can streamline tasks to help you save more time.

The Galaxy Note10 features 14 preset Bixby Routines right out of the box, including ‘Good morning,’ ‘Work,’ ‘Home,’ ‘Before bed’ and ‘Driving.’ Best of all, creating your own Bixby Routines couldn’t be easier. Simply tap on the plus sign at the top of the menu to create a routine that works for you.

9. Rearranging Camera Modes

Because speed can be key when it comes to capturing incredible photos, the Galaxy Note10 allows you to rearrange the order of its camera modes so your most frequently used options come up first. The camera launches on Photo mode by default, and lets you designate the order of the camera modes to the left and right of Photo mode to make it easy to navigate to the mode you need.

If, for example, you like to take pictures of your food, place Food mode immediately before or after Photo. If you tend to use other modes more often than the basic Photo mode, tap on ‘Keep using last mode’ under the ‘Camera modes’ settings to enable the camera to launch on the last mode you used.

10. Quickly Access Brightness Settings

Sometimes – when watching a movie at a theater, for example – we’d like to be able to adjust our smartphone’s brightness quickly and easily. If you find yourself in these situations quite often, consider enabling the Galaxy Note10’s brightness control to be displayed above the notification panel.

To do so, simply swipe down on the Quick Panel, tap on the arrow to the right of the brightness control, and tap on ‘Show control on top.’ The display’s brightness settings also include an ‘Adaptive brightness’ function that allows the Galaxy Note10 to keep track of your brightness adjustments and apply them automatically when you use your device under similar lighting conditions.

The Galaxy Note10’s predecessor had provided hardcore gamers with all the tools they needed for the best mobile gaming experiences, but with the Galaxy Note10, users will be able to discover a device optimized for both heavy and casual gamers. In order to bring fun new gaming experiences to users, Samsung has been working hard to create exclusive experiences with leading mobile games, including joining forces with the incredibly popular Candy Crush Friends Saga.

Bringing Hungry Yeti to Life with the Galaxy Note10 and S Pen

Candy Crush Friends Saga is bringing one of its iconic characters, Hungry Yeti, to life in-game with a new augmented reality feature for Android users. Thanks to Samsung’s new partnership with Candy Crush Friends Saga, users of the Galaxy Note10 and Note10+ will be able to access exclusive bonus in-game AR interactions with their S Pen while playing.

Players need simply point their device at a flat surface to see Yeti come to life on-screen and in-room. By feeding this beloved character of the Candy Crush franchise daily, players can earn gifts which they can then use in-game when matching  and switching candies. Users with a Galaxy Note10 or Note10+ are able to unlock even more fun in-game features with the S Pen’s Air actions; shaking the S Pen will activate the Yeti dance.

K-Pop superstars and Candy Crush superfans Lisa and Jisoo of BLACKPINK were invited to the King HQ in Stockholm to be the first to try out the new feature on the Galaxy Note10. “We are big fans of Candy Crush,” enthused Lisa while visiting the King’s office. “While we are on tour, we spend a lot of time in transit and in hotel rooms, which is when we tend to play a lot.”

“Candy Crush Friends Saga has the cutest characters, and we’ve always loved Yeti,” continued Jisoo. “It was a lot of fun to see Yeti come to life and to dance with him. We really loved the moment when Yeti gave us a gift!”

Every element of the Galaxy Note10 is crafted to be sleek, slim and distraction-free, so users can devote their full attention to the ideas, projects, and content that matters most.

• Two Sizes: For the first time ever, the Galaxy Note10 comes in two sizes, so consumers can find the Note that’s best for them. The Galaxy Note10 opens up the Note to users who want the power of the S Pen and ultimate productivity in a compact form factor, packing a 6.3-inch Cinematic Infinity Display into the most compact Note yet. The Galaxy Note10+ features the biggest Note display ever with a 6.8-inch Cinematic Infinity Display on a device that’s still easy to hold and easy to use.

The Galaxy Note10’s display is Samsung’s best yet. From its physical construction to its underlying technology, the display is designed to immerse users in their favorite TV, movies and games.

• Edge-to-edge Design: The Galaxy Note10’s edge-to-edge Cinematic Infinity Display is nearly bezel-less, while the in-display cut out for the front camera is small and centered for a balanced design.

• Best Quality Display: The Galaxy Note10 features the award-winning Dynamic AMOLED display. With HDR10+ certification and Dynamic Tone Mapping, photos and videos are brighter than previous Note devices, and feature a stunning, wide color range.

Multi-Faceted Productivity to Maximize Every Moment

Note users put a premium on productivity, and they see their phone as essential to helping them do and achieve more.

Users can now customize notes by shrinking, enlarging, or changing the color of the text. In just a few taps, meeting minutes can be formatted and shared; bursts of inspiration can quickly become editable documents.

• Evolution of the S Pen: The Galaxy Note10 builds on the Bluetooth Low Energy-enabled S Pen capabilities introduced on the Galaxy Note9 by adding Air actions, allowing you to control certain aspects of the device using gestures with the S Pen. By opening up the Air actions SDK, developers can create customized controls that give users the ability to play games or use their favorite applications using gestures.

• Premium Video Technology: The Galaxy Note10 enables users to capture pro-grade video without having to carry around any extra gear. Live focus video adds depth-of-field adjustments so you can blur the background to focus on your subject. Zoom-In Mic amplifies the audio in frame and pushes background noise aside to help focus on the sounds that you want. And to remove the bumps and shakes that usually make an action shot blurry, new and improved Super steady stabilizes footage, and is now available in Hyperlapse mode for steady time-lapse videos.

• Quick and Easy Video Editing: Once they’ve recorded their video, Galaxy Note10 users can edit-on-the-go instantly right from their phone. Video editor can be used with the S Pen, so instead of having to tap to select or edit a clip, users can choose the precise moment they want to trim. For creators who need even more control over their footage, Adobe Rush⁴ on the Galaxy Note10 provides a sophisticated suite of editing tools, now even more accurate with the S Pen.

• Screen Recorder: For gamers who want to add some personality to their streams, or vloggers who want to enhance their tutorials, the Galaxy Note10 introduces Screen recorder.

• Night Mode: People take plenty of selfies in low light situations—at dinner, at concerts or just enjoying a sunset. Night Mode, now available on the front camera, lets users capture striking selfies no matter how dim or dark the conditions.

Unparalleled Performance for Power Users

Note fans use their phones to do just about everything—not just tackling everyday tasks, but taking on big projects: running their business, editing video for their social media channels, creating beautiful illustrations with the S Pen. To help them do it all, the Galaxy Note10 is engineered with top-tier hardware and next-level features.

• Super Fast Charging: With just 30 minutes of charge, the Galaxy Note10+ lasts through the day⁷ with up to 45W wired charging capability⁸.

• Wireless PowerShare⁹: Wireless PowerShare comes to the Note. Users can wirelessly recharge their Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Buds, or another Qi-enabled device with the Galaxy Note10.

• Gaming: As mobile games get more processing-heavy and graphics-rich, the best gaming experiences require top specs. The Galaxy Note10 features the world’s slimmest vapor chamber cooling system, which delivers optimal performance during gameplay while keeping the device slim and sleek. With the AI-based Game Booster, the Galaxy Note10 optimizes performance and power consumption depending on the game. And with the PlayGalaxy Link P2P streaming service, users can pick up where users left off on any PC game and enable them to continue playing on the move with no need for local storage.

• Hyper-fast Speeds: With LTE and 5G-ready options, Note10 users can take full advantage of their carriers’ fastest speeds.

First introduced alongside the initial Galaxy Note in 2011 and introduced more recently to the Galaxy Tab range, the S Pen has evolved over the years to become the ultimate tool, providing enhanced creativity with and increased usability of your device. Now, the Galaxy Note10’s S Pen has been re-designed to help users unlock the full power of their device.

The latest S Pen features a sleek unibody design and 10 hours of usage on a single charge thanks to its 350uAh lithium-titanate battery that provides high stability and resilience against external forces. The S Pen now also supports intuitive gesture recognition with S Pen Air actions so that you can always be completely in control. Thanks to its 6-axis sensor (which consists of three velocity sensors and three gyro sensors), S Pen Air actions let users take pictures, zoom in and out and switch camera perspective with a simple gesture, as well as change content and volume in multimedia apps with ease.

Take a look at the infographic below for more information on the full capabilities of the S Pen for the Galaxy Note10 and the Galaxy Tab S6.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Take a look at the infographic below for an in-depth look at 10 of the Galaxy range’s leading innovations that have redefined the smartphone experience over the past 10 years.

1. AMOLED Displays

First featured on: the Galaxy S (2010)

Samsung’s introduction of the first smartphone with a Super AMOLED display laid the groundwork for AMOLED technology to become the industry standard, and ultimately helped pave the way for the era of large-screen smartphones.

Models pose wearing designs from the capsule collection, “Mobile Couture”, designed by Fontan using the Galaxy Note9

Future Fashion

Spearheading progressive design in the world of fashion, Fontan is a couture designer, whose works garnered three awards at Graduate Fashion Week in London this year. She was also the first fashion student to “grow” her own dress, which was organically grown from 100% biodegradable textile, including Kombucha tea, sugar, bacteria and yeast. For this collection, to continue her sustainability efforts, Fontan utilized a mix of recycled leather and biodegradable 3D plastic fastenings in the garments.

The Galaxy Note9 was an integral tool to the design process of the ‘Mobile Couture’ Collection

Working at the intersection of technology and fashion, Fontan’s ambition and creativity show what the Galaxy Note9 can do in the hands of next-gen achievers. “Mobile Couture” is a key example of how readily available technology, such as a smartphone, can open up new possibilities for the traditional methods of couture design.

Digital Design

Fontan used the Galaxy Note9 at every stage in the design process – from concept to completion – as she created the four garments which make up the capsule collection.

The designer’s sketches show the complex layers of detail required for couture design

The Galaxy Note9’s signature S Pen is both pressure-sensitive and fine-tipped, meaning that Fontan could sketch on the device as if using pencil on paper, shading and drawing intricate patterns whenever and wherever inspiration struck. The S Pen’s remote-control function also sparked her creativity, allowing the couturier to take photos without needing to hold the phone, which offered new perspectives for her digital look book.

Using the camera and S Pen to source, annotate and save inspiration for her digital sketchbook even while on the move, Fontan also had the freedom to keep large files of diverse formats on the device as she worked, thanks to the device’s large storage capacity.

By 3D-printing elements of the garments directly from the Galaxy Note9, Fontan eliminated the computer as an intermediary device, instead relying on the smartphone’s substantial processing power. She was even able to monitor and edit files during the printing process.

Fontan checks and adjusts the 3D printing process in real time using the Galaxy Note9

Fontan also used the Galaxy Note9 to wirelessly transmit her fabric pattern designs to be printed onto leather strips.

Tailoring with Technology

In using the Galaxy Note9, the time taken to craft the collection was dramatically reduced, allowing Fontan to work quickly to create beautiful garments with these innovative techniques.

Technology and sustainability work in harmony in the “Mobile Couture” collection. Recycled leather was used to create the base, which is made of shredded leather scraps and residues, whilst the 3D fastenings were made from the biodegradable material PLA (polylactic acid), a renewable resource derived from corn starch.

“As someone whose creativity is driven by the potential of technology and science, it was really interesting for me to find that there was a smartphone that actually had the capabilities to control and own the whole production process of an entire collection,” Fontan elaborated. “My ideas are ambitious and aim to challenge traditional processes so, as a young designer, it was liberating to be able to see them come to fruition using a device that I always have in my hand.”

¹512GB internal memory as standard. 512GB models available in select countries. Up to 512GB additional storage with external SD card (sold separately).
