Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 Gets Major New S Pen Features With An Update
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 with a 12.4" Super AMOLED, 1752x2800px resolution, 16:10 aspect ratio, 266ppi; HDR10+, Always-on display, 120Hz refresh rate got a big S Pen feature update. A month ago, the company rolled out the latest iteration of its custom Android skin to the flagship tablet in the form of One UI 3.1, which brought in a bunch of new productivity capabilities. One of the biggest new features in the upcoming update is the expansion of the S Pen’s handwriting feature to more text boxes that are otherwise limited to the on-screen keyboard. For instance, Galaxy Tab S7 owners should be able to utilize the S Pen for handwriting in address boxes once the new build is installed. The underlying algorithm will allow to digitize punctuation marks as well. There’s also a handy gesture mechanism, e.g., drawing a ‘v’ between words will leave a space, while ‘⌒’ will connect separate words. The same feature is coming to Samsung Notes, which should come in handy for people who actively use the Galaxy Tab S7 for note-taking. The tablets are also gaining new camera capabilities related to document scanning. By tapping the ‘Attach’ icon in the Notes app and choosing the ‘Scan’ option, the document becomes readily available to make notes on it. It might not be as big of a change as the S Pen to text feature, but Samsung streamlined the process of note-taking by building the feature right into the Notes app.
