1 GIMME A SECOND
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+ has a Second Screen feature for Windows computers. To find it, swipe your notifications menu from the top of the screen and swipe down again for quick toggles. Look for the option titled ‘Second screen’; tap it, and your device will become discoverable. On your computer, tap the speech bubble in the bottom right of the taskbar and select ‘Connect’. You’re in! 2 PUT IT ON YOUR TAB
If you’ve got a Samsung phone, this tablet can make and receive calls, even when that phone is somewhere else. To fire up the feature, dive into your settings, scroll down to ‘Advanced features’ and tap it. Now select ‘Call & text on other devices’, switch it on, repeat the process on your Samsung phone… and you need never miss a call again so long as you’ve got your Tab S7+ to hand. 3 SMOOTH THINGS OVER
The Galaxy Tab S7+ has a 12.4in SUPERAMOLED screen with sky-high resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate that makes everything look hyper-smooth. However, that comes at the cost of power-hungriness. If you’re low on juice, minimise drain until you get to a charger by jumping into your display settings, selecting ‘Motion smoothness’ and tapping on ‘Standard’. 4 TURN OFF THE NEWS
Samsung phones and tabs have had a few different views to the left of the home screen. There’s been a Bixby screen, Samsung Daily and now Samsung Free, a breaking news stream powered by Upday. If a deluge of grim updates isn’t your thing, relieve yourself of Samsung Free by pinching the home screen, swiping to the left and tapping the toggle on the top right of your screen to turn it off. 5 LET’S TALK ABOUT DEX
DEX gives the Tab S7+ a desktop computer feel, and we love how the massive display helps with multiple apps and productivity. Hook up your tablet to a big screen with the HDMI dock and DEX will project to it. Then pair the tab up with a Bluetooth keyboard or mouse, or use a dongle to hook up some wired accessories for a full-blown word-processing, graph-editing workstation. 6 BANISH THE BLUES
If you’re a tablet power-user, make all that screen time a bit kinder on your peepers. Pull down from the top twice to bring your quick toggles menu in frame, long-press the ‘Eye comfort shield’ option, and here you can switch it on to instantly warm up your screen, set a schedule so it activates at fixed times, and control its colour temperature. Less blue means less late-night brain-buzzing.
