6 Scholary Features That Make Samsung’s S Pen with Galaxy Z Fold6 Perfect for Students

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 is the latest book-style foldable from Samsung with a lot to like for anyone searching for a pocket-sized device for their productivity needs. Interestingly, some of its features also promise big benefits for students, especially if you pair its big 7.6-inch display with either the S Pen Fold Edition or the Bluetooth-capable S Pen Pro. Here’s a look at some handy features that make the Z Fold 6 and S Pen combo a good buy for students.

1. Take Notes in Style

For any student, taking notes is a major part of the whole learning in-class experience. When paired with a supported S Pen, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 can make the process of note-taking easy and enjoyable. It not only helps you do away with the need to carry a pen and notebook to class but also provides a simpler and much more efficient way to take notes than, let’s say, on a laptop.

All one needs to do is press the side button on the S Pen and start writing without even unlocking the Z Fold 6. Yes, it’s that simple! And since the Z Fold 6 is backed by Samsung’s Galaxy AI, you can also take advantage of features such as Note Assist which can automatically summarize the notes or just simply organize and gather key takeaways from the text you’ve jotted down.

2. Charm of Handwriting with the Ease of Text

If you’re someone who is not too keen on letting go of your trusted pen and notebook, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 with the S Pen could be the perfect digital solution. Using the S Pen, you can take notes, or even write entire essays in your handwriting, instead of going through the drag of typing away on your laptop or worse on your smartphone.

If you want to convert these to text for a presentation or an assignment later, you can do it straight from the Notes app by selecting the handwritten material. Since Microsoft has optimized Outlook for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 working the FlexMode, you can also use the S Pen to respond to emails by hand.

For this, all you need to do is switch to handwriting mode from your on-screen keyboard, and then tap “handwriting.” Now, everything handwritten can be converted to text shared over mail. Interestingly, thanks to Galaxy AI, the phone can convert even cursive writing quickly and accurately.

3. Do More with PDFs

If you’re a student, you’re likely dealing with a lot of PDFs for classwork. With a Z Fold 6 powered by an S Pen, you can now do so much more with these PDFs. From marking documents in tablet mode, or using Circle to Search for information and related articles about a course book, the S Pen and Fold 6 combo can help you with your assignments, class work, and more.

For this, all you need to do is open any PDF in the Samsung Notes app and then start annotating using the S Pen. And that’s not it; you can even add voice recordings for particular sections if you’re not in the mood to write detailed annotations.

4. Add Spark to Presentations

The S Pen and Z Fold 6 are also a very good combo for creating presentations for class. If you’re creating one, you’ll love the fact that the S Pen can be used to drag and drop images and even blocks of text without any need for copy-pasting.

And if you’re of the artistic bent, and your class work requires sketching and drawing, then you can even do it directly within the PowerPoint app on your Z Fold 6. If you’re like me and want to take advantage of this feature but not very sure about your drawing and sketching skills, you can even use the in-built Galaxy AI smarts to enhance your artistic work.

5. Translate like a Pro

If you’re planning on going abroad for a student exchange plan or learning a new language, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 with the S Pen could be a seriously powerful tool in your arsenal. Again, thanks to Galaxy AI, you can do a lot more on the fly than you could ever before on a phone or even a laptop.

For example, with the Translate tool in the Air Command menu, a user can instantly translate words, emails, documents, and news articles between dozens of languages. All you need to do is download the relevant language packs. Currently, this feature supports 16 languages, but we expect Samsung to expand this to a larger base shortly.

6. Simplify the Virtual Classroom

The Z Fold 6 and S Pen together are also a powerful combination to get the most out of virtual classrooms. This is because the phone supports Multi-Active Windows which allows you to simultaneously run the Samsung Notes app and a video conferencing app in two different parts of the screen, thus allowing you to take down notes in a virtual class without the need for a separate device or pen and paper.

You can also let the smarts of Samsung’s Transcript AI do all the heavy lifting for you by summarizing the class for you. After which, you can simply pull out your S Pen organize the text, and create highlights for use at a later time.

Study Right with Galaxy Z Fold 6 and S Pen

Suffice it to say that the combination of the Z Fold 6 and the S Pen working in tandem with Samsung’s Galaxy AI is a game-changer for students. From helping you take down notes to transcribing and organizing them, there’s so much you can do with an S Pen and Z Fold 6 in hand. And might we add, all of it in style!
