Take Note of Samsung

The new Samsung Note 10 smartphone has arrived in South Africa, offering a carnival of new features, writes ARTHUR GOLDSTUCK

The Note’s Magic Wand

Samsung compares the S Pen, with its Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) capability, to a magic wand – one that could be used to manage key device functions from afar. It says:

“The new S Pen takes that convenience a step further with the introduction of customisable, BLE-based gesture controls known as S Pen Air actions. Powered by the S Pen’s six-axis sensor, this particularly handy feature makes it possible to, with a flick of the wrist, switch camera modes, zoom in and out, manage music and video controls, and more.

“The way it works is simple: with the S Pen pointed toward their phone and its button pressed, the user can, for instance, draw a circle in the air to instantly zoom in or out of a shot, or make an upward motion to switch from the selfie to the main camera, or vice versa. Best of all, because the S Pen’s gesture controls are fully customisable, users can customise their Air actions in whichever ways work for them.”
