Advanced S Pen & S Note usage
Everyday tasks on Samsung GALAXY Note II are made easier and more intuitive using S Pen enabled features. Air View allows people to hover with the S Pen over an email, S Note, S Planner, image galleries, or videos to preview the content without having to open the file. Such quick access to view information in detail without screen transitions improves productivity. Further, the device’s new gesture pad feature, Quick Command, allows people to use the S Pen to take shortcuts.
The S Pen enables people to easily capture ideas and inspirations instantly or to combine handwriting with any digital content directly on the screen. The S Pen button, when pressed, recognises intuitively the intention to clip, crop or edit the selected content in any shape, and subsequently save, share or paste it. Further, people can personalise content easily by colouring, shading, or adding notes with personal handwriting.
Breezy Multitasking
Whether one is watching a video, texting a friend or simply sketching an idea, GALAXY Note II makes multitasking seamless and intuitive with three new features:
1. Pop Up Note allows the S Note to be opened as a pop-up window anywhere on screen, even when watching a video, or taking a call.
2. Multiwindow provides people with the capability to multitask without having to switch between screens.
3. Pop Up Video extends the concept of ‘Pop up play’, where videos become a floating window on display with the touch of a button, allowing it to be repositioned to any part of the screen.
These features offer people versatility in multitasking and freedom of thought expression whilst remaining connected with friends and family.
