Enhancements to S Pen and integration
The S Latency will be further reduced, providing a more natural writing feel. Novos gestures and commands (Air Actions) will be introduced to quickly trigger AI tools, such as selecting a paragraph with a pen movement to instantly summarize it or circling a formula for “Math
The integration between the S Pen and the system will be deeper, allowing the user to capture content from any application and send it directly to the Samsung Notes, where the AI can process it. Será possible, for example, to select an area of a website and use AI to extract the most relevant information, creating a new note automatically. Essa functionality aims to create a seamless and efficient workflow between different applications and tasks.
Improved synchronization with Windows
Integration with the Windows operating system, already facilitated by the “Link to Celular” application, will be taken to a new level with One UI 8.0. Samsung Notes synchronization between Galaxy devices and Windows computers will be virtually instantaneous, ensuring that all changes, including those made by new AI tools, are reflected in real time across all platforms.
