Considering typing on devices and keyboards can take a long time, it is sometimes easy to forget the benefits of writing things by hand. It may be slower than typing, but in most studies students are often more in-deep and have more information by making written notes. The ordinary pen is equipped with sketches, graphs, and formulas.

Perhaps the biggest drawback of paper-and-pen notations is the time it can take to digitalize them later on, especially when they combine both graphics and text together.

Thankfully, that’s where Samsung Notes can help out. Use the S Pen to write, doodle, and draw straight onto a digital canvas, then convert your handwriting to text and export your multimedia file in a variety of formats. No paper wastage, no typing up notes, no confusion.
