Redesigned S Pen Boosts Creativity and Productivity

Samsung’s signature S Pen began as an instrument for writing and drawing, but it has evolved to become the ultimate creativity and productivity partner. Now with remote control functionality and wireless charging capabilities, the S Pen on Galaxy Tab S6 is an even more powerful tool for creating and getting things done. With built-in Bluetooth remote control features[1] including a gesture function called S Pen Air Action, the S Pen lets you intuitively take selfies and videos, or scroll through multimedia content or your creative portfolio, even when your tablet is out of reach. Best of all, it comes included right in the box.

Plus, the S Pen makes taking notes a breeze, and delivers enough battery life[2] to get you through a day full of presentations, notetaking, translations, and creativity after just ten minutes of charging. Handwritten Samsung Notes can be converted to digital text and exported to formats like Microsoft Word with just one click. You can also jot down quick notes or sketches while watching a video on the same screen by adjusting the Note app’s window transparency—perfect for effortless multitasking.

A new-and-improved version of Samsung DeX[3] is also packed into the Galaxy Tab S6, enabling you to seamlessly transition to a PC-like experience, so you can easily multitask and optimize your viewing experience. With a DeX function key added to the Galaxy Tab S6’s new dedicated Book Cover Keyboard, you can launch and close DeX with the tap of a key. The keyboard has been fine-tuned for better functionality, including an S Pen holder, free angle stand, touch pad and new function keys.
