Product Manuals
A: Yes it supports a stylus. The Bamboo stylus from Amazon is a HIGHLY suggested tool for this beautiful laptop!
Q: Does this have an ethernet port?
A: While there is no Ethernet port, you can buy a USB powered Ethernet adapter. There are a couple of different options to choose from on the website. Just type in USB to Ethernet and they should pop up!
Q: When was this item announced and is it better than the galaxy book ion
A: This is the current Generation Alpha Product released by Samsung. Unfortunately, they do not advertise their Alpha line as much as the Flex and Pro Lines of Ultrabooks they make, and this unit was more of a silent drop on Samsung and BestBuys website at the beginning of May with a May 14th release date. But, yes to answer your question this Flex 2 Alpha is far more superior to the Samsung Ion Product Line.
Q: Does this have fingerprint or facial reader?
A: It has fingerprint reader
Q: Does it come with the S-pen?
A: No it doesnt.
A: Nope, you cannot add more "memory" as the LPDDR4X is soldered down. You CAN add more "storage" tho, with SDcard, and SDcards are relatively cheap.
Q: Does this works like my galaxy note mobile which is android?
A: It will sync to your Samsung phone. I have the Note 20 ultra and can access what's on my phone from the laptop.
