Using the functions of the S-series also provide the grade models have always additional operation via pin , also stylus, or in the case of Samsung " S-Pen " called. In the test case will be interesting especially how well the handwriting recognition works and how well a dosedpressure point can control different reactions.We already work with in our previous tests various smartphones and phablets pen input tested in everyday life. Overall, it shows how this gadget over the years was always practical: you can with good devices by different now as a real pen pressure levels draw lines of uneven thickness, the handwriting recognition works largely error-free with very good equipment and of course you can very delicate exactly click individual mini graphics that you would never marked as accurate by thumb or forefinger. Is cut off how well the new S Pen, we will find out.

Depending on the contract that is subject to a charge, at a Allnet Flat it can work without charge. So you unless to permanent accessibility on both numbers at the same time instructed, you should see in his cell phone contracts, what does it cost to use this feature.battery pack
