Screen capture has always been one of the useful and commonly used functions of smartphones. Because Samsung mobile phones have physical HOME buttons, the action of taking screen/screen captures is somewhat different from other brands.
Today, Henry will show you five tips and tricks for taking screen/screenshots of last year’s flagship Samsung Galaxy Note 4 at the end of 2014.
(Additional note: Samsung also has an action for taking screenshots with a hand knife, but because Henry is not very good at this action, I won’t introduce it in this article)
There are five ways to take screenshots on Samsung
HOME+POWER: Take screenshots with physical buttons, which can be done from the notification bar Delete, edit and share directly.
SPEN-1 (quick screenshot): After taking the screenshot, you can directly doodle, share, crop, simply archive, and discard the screenshot.
SPEN-2 (all-purpose cutter): Cut any shape in the picture as you like and then transform it twice, share it, save it to the all-purpose post, and export it.
SPEN-3 (intelligent selection): share, collect albums, save to omnipotent posts, and exit.
Hand Knife: Put your palm in the hand knife position and sweep across the phone screen.
(Supplement: Since other models of Samsung mobile phones do not have S-PEN, they all use the first physical button screenshot method to take screenshots)
(Supplement: S-PEN all-purpose cutter and smart selection may only appear in Samsung mobile phones after NOTE3 )
HOME+POWER screenshot
is the most basic and suitable physical button screenshot method for most Samsung mobile phones.
(The screenshot method of the earlier Samsung mobile phone Galaxy S1 (GT-I9000/I9003) is the return key + HOME key)
kindly reminds: the two buttons must be pressed at almost the same speed to successfully see the screenshot. Tips, practice a few times and you will become proficient~
S-PEN Sensor shortcut ring 1: Quick screenshot
You can quickly take a screenshot of the entire screen and use S-PEN to mark the key points, and share it with others in real time, or post it on social groups such as FB.
S-PEN induction shortcut ring 2: All-purpose cutting
uses S-PEN to frame the desired range arbitrarily. It will not be limited to square, rectangular or round. The pony shape in the middle of the picture below is also acceptable. XD
After the frame selection is completed It is also very useful to change the selection range, just use the transformation button above to turn it into a circle or square.
S-PEN Sensor Shortcut Ring 3: Smart Selection
can only use a square to capture screen images, but the focus of smart selection is on related applications, such as text judgment (the small T on the upper right), multiple collection ( blue circle in the lower right corner). In
, for the multi-collection part, you can take screenshots of many pictures at once and share them with friends or put them on social platforms such as WeChat.
For example, when a girl is shopping for products on an online auction site, she wants to ask her best friend how they feel about it. Is it suitable for her to wear? So she randomly selects 5 products from dozens of clothes and accessories. I sent it to my best friend via WeChat in one go.
▲Text judgment function
▲Multiple collection function
Universal sticker
This function is so powerful. You can edit multiple pictures at the same time and convert the file into a common JPG and share it with others. Of course, you can also make key notes and graffiti on it. Hello.
I don’t know which screenshot method you are used to?
Henry’s most commonly used one is the first physical button, and the second one is the S-PEN smart selection function that can select a range.
Maybe many friends buy NOTE series mobile phones for their big screens, and the S-PEN part may be rarely used, but the related application functions of S-PEN used in screenshots are really powerful, use it more This time I think I will become proficient and discover the advantages and convenience of these functions. Share your experiences above
with everyone.
