[@Gadgetonomy]

You know when people say they never use the S-Pen or only use it occasionally for signing documents maybe?... They clearly have never took the time to see just how powerful this little critter is! This video is a prime example of what you do best. That is to really educate people on why Samsung devices offer mind blowing innovation, if only you spend a little time to get acquainted. This can be overwhelming of course but you leave no stone unturned in demonstrating everything possible. You deserve so much credit for your time.

[@TechisodeTV]

Thanks so much for the kinds words! I'm glad you find value in these videos :)

[@troyezell5841]

I agree, and as well, they neglect the fact of just how useful and convenient being able to sign documents is. Just the document manipulation features of the S-Pen make it a world of innovation beyond every other device on the market.

[@RelaxSimmer]

Tell me 1 good feature that you use that's not accessible easier without pulling out a pen or a feature you can't do without a pen in your daily routine.

[@Gadgetonomy]

@@RelaxSimmer Easy. Text selection. Even on things like images and media where editing isn't normally available. And also there's highlighting text for instant translation.

[@RelaxSimmer]

@@Gadgetonomy But you can do that without a pen ... Lets be fair it's faster to do it with your finger then pulling out the pen and doing it.

I think it's essential for Maths study because we can't type Maths using a keyboard very fast at all, so I have used Snote for years but only the education stuff. This video is extra!

[@ParthTrivedi099]

A bunch of thanks for sharing such valuable information. I didn't even know my S23 Ultra pen can do this much stuff. This completely changed my perspective for Spen. Now i am using my Spen whole day.

[@aquablaster86]

My first experience with the S-pen was a few months ago when I purchased my s23 ultra. I watched a few other KZbin videos about the s pen then, but by FAR this was the most in-depth and helpful tutorial! Thank you!

[@AquaStevae]

Good vid. Two things however, first when you leave the S Pen behind, there should be a very NOTICEABLE audio alarm, as the tiny click doesn't help at all. Most people put their phones in their pocket when they are leaving a place. So if your S Pen is left behind, that little message doesn't help, until possibly it's too late. Second, MOST of the S Pen functions don't work if you use another launcher like NOVA. So there needs to be some development there as well. But over all nice features to have. When I decided to purchase the S23U, I assumed the S Pen would not be something I would use much, as I also figured it was an unuseful gimmick. However, I've found it is much more useful than I ever would have imagined, and vids like this one really help. Thanks for a well laid out tutorial.

[@TechisodeTV]

Thanks for the comment and the insight! You make some good recommendations. Hopefully Samsung implements those in a future update 🤞

[@zane___k7333]

The phone does alert you. If it detects movement and the s pen is not inserted. And the double alert is easily catches my attention.

[@ramseydoon8277]

Which functions do you lose access to when using nova launcher? Any that are useful enough to make you consider switching back to samsung's launcher or do the benefits of nova outweigh those of the s-pen, would you say?

[@foolishgrey]

I love scrolling with it so I don't have to hold the phone when sitting in bed and browsing for fun. So no hand strain or numb fingers

[@boyeatsworld-vr9ci]

Don't use nova?

[@jaydragonsbreath2423]

Well done. Seriously, this is hardcore power-user stuff. This is why Samsung flagships stand a cut above other android phones - and Apple is not even in the rearview mirror.

[@EnglandRemoval]

Samsung has some of the best innovations of any phone, flip-smartphones, side-folding tablet-phone hybrids, and my personal favorite, that awesome pen

[@rksolar2806]

I admire people who can write with such dexterity in such a small space using such a small pen. I have very big hands, left-handed, and barely used to handwriting anymore since keyboards became a thing. So imagine my struggle.

[@teaformulamaths]

You can get all the SPEN goodness from a tablet - S6 Lite (About £300) or the Samsung S9 Ultra which is massive! You can rest your palm on the screen too and it doesn't affect the writing! In my videos I talk about the downside of using the phone too much - battery gets ruined. So I prefer a dedicated tablet anyway ;)

[@ziusky]

Bro I am no different from u. I have gigantic hands and also I am left handed. And used keyboards for a long time. But writing with pen is soo comfy. I've tried it with a Samsung Tab S9 and it is super fun to do anything on it. I've never used a keyboard in that tablet since device allows you to write any text input box with that pen. And it makes the device so much enjoyable. And btw, dont care about that u haven't been done any handwriting for a long time. Getting used to handwriting just takes a day or two

[@demithevampireking4285]

Once I get a s23 Ultra, I'm going to have to fight the urge to set the removal of the pen's sound to the CSI Miami "YEAAAAAAAHHHHHH" or Kronk saying "Oh yeah, It's all coming together."

[@TheRandoDude]

@TechisodeTV I would, but I also tested the Motorola Razr+ and honestly, Samsung has some real competition on their hands. The Razr+ was the first phone in years that I would say was fun to use.

[@TechisodeTV]

If you're someone looking to use these phones to their full potential, the family of Good Lock apps are absolutely essential. Imo the only reason Samsung doesn't add it by default is because it can be overwhelming for the average person

Subbed. Just because I need to learn more about the power of the phone I use (s23 Ultra) so I can take advantage of it.

I use the S pen nearly 100% of the time I'm using the phone, and I find many of your hidden features useful. However, you go through screens and talk so quickly that following along is difficult. And when you're showing a feature, HOW to access certain options is glossed over to the point where I can't even find the features you're describing. I'd rather see fewer hidden features in one video and instead a slower, slightly more detailed explanation of the steps involved. Just a suggestion.

[@TechisodeTV]

Thanks for the feedback! Can you tell me a specific feature that was hard to follow?

[@yolandarowe3094]

You might find it helpful to watch the video on .5x or .75x speed so you can study his movements.

Wow, this is amazing as well as mind blowing. I just need to get used to a few at a time. My mind is fully blown.

[@ItsEverythingElse]

I've been avoiding learning about the S Pen but need to start.

[@teaformulamaths]

It's excellent for studying too

[@awgdansk]

Let’s be honest - 95% of what the s-pen can do, can be done more quickly with your fingers. Taking out the pen, making sure it’s charged and finding the button to press will take more time than doing whatever you want to do ‘manually’. In my experience the only tour situations when it’s worth the effort is: quick note taking, screenshots of the selected area of the screen and adding annotations, using camera remotely, clicking through slides of a presentation. That’s about it. If there were galaxy shoes with built-in controller that you could use when you cannot use your hands, that’s a different story :)

[@ElitePortraits]

Try it with 3D sculpting like Nomad. It will blow your mind

[@ArielAquino]

Thank you, but this video depressed me. I was happy just taking pictures with it! Now I got a lot to learn! Thanks again for all the great tips

[@Rhyhmx]

One thing they need to add (and I haven't found this so mabye its on me) is the ability to be able to setup profiles for the S pen so you can have different air gestures for different use cases and a way to easily cycle between them. Imagine you do a presentation and you can just switch your S pen profile from Phone to Work for example and then gesture control your slides. It would be such a nice feature especially when you need to go to a place that doesn't have a remote to do this because then you dont need to go back and forth between the "screen" and your laptop. This way you could also setup a routine so that if you connect your phone to your laptop it makes your Spen switch to the work profile or if you get home and connect to your wifi then it switches it to smart device control, most people wouldn't use this feature but it's not a difficult thing to add and having more options is better and for those who find it useful it would be very convenient and not just a gimmick.

[@Skynetdotexe]

Good lock is region locked!!! I could not possibly fathom why but it is. The following workaround works: - Remove your SIM, (it reads the region based on carrier information) - Turn your VPN on - Clear cache AND data from the Galaxy store - You should be able to download good lock now. You will lose access to edit stuff within the app when the Galaxy store caches up to you later when you return your sim, but the functionality will remain there. Youll not be able to edit it without re-tricking your Galaxy store though

My only (very, very minor) complaint is that I ordered this in bronze and they sent me black. Yes, it should have been corrected, but we were only in country for a short period of time and I didn't want to run the risk of not getting a new one in time. I'm such a fan of Samsung Galaxy tablets that I'd rather suck it up than lose out on having it. In the big scheme of things, this rates an irritant factor of .0000000001 out of 1000. In other words, I'm not looking at the colors when I use it, so I got over it very easily.
