Q: Questioncan i use s pen buying it externally?
Asked by joy.
- A:Answer From the reviews I have read, nobody has been able to make the s pen works on the alpha. I tried the wacom bamboo pen 2nd and it works perfectly. I think it has window ink support. It also has palm rejection feature when I’m using the Wacom pen on my alpha.

Q: QuestionWhat is the battery life in hours please?
Asked by RodT.
- A:Answer Hello RodT, I am a heavy user of this laptop for work. I load large photo files and mark them up with construction inspector notes using my digital pen.. I easily get 12 hours of battery life over two days of use. I think I could get at least several more hours if I didn't stream movies for entertainment at night in my motel room when I am out of town. This baby is powerful and fast. My guess is that if you just do word documents and e-mail you will come close to 17 hours of battery life.. . .

Q: QuestionHas anybody physically charged this laptop via the USB-C port. I have contacted Samsung & they can’t confirm, so I was hoping someone could verify this could be done (I know it states on the webpage that it can - but the manual does not corroborate this)
Asked by Greywalrus.
- A:Answer I cannot get USB charging to work either. It looks like there is a setting in the BIOS, in the manual on page 69 its shows that it is there is a USB charging toggle under "Advanced", however only have Battery Calibration available to me in that location. I've only had the Flex Alpha for a few days, but it doesn't last anywhere near the advertised run time. The computer is on standby 90% of the time and email/browsing the rest of the time and it only lasts about six hours. One of the USB ports have a bend in the aluminum case right out of the box. So far I'm not very happy with this device and I'm considering swapping it for a Lenovo Yoga.

Q: QuestionHow are the speakers on this computer?
Asked by Isabel.
- A:Answer I find the speakers to be pretty decent, they are side-firing (as opposed to being on the top or bottom of the chassis), so regardless of whether I choose to watch in laptop, tablet or tent mode it is clear and crisp. Laptop speakers in general aren't for audiophiles, but I find these to be rich enough for movies and music. It's not base-heavy, and has a good balance of mids and highs.

Q: QuestionIs there supposed to be some sort of indicator light that either changes color or turns on/off when the Galaxy Book Flex Alpha goes from charging to fully charged? I only ask because I have zero lights showing when my laptop is fully charged
Asked by Hiney.
- A:Answer I asked a Samsung rep and they told me there is no charging indicator light on the laptop nor charger. The only way to know the laptop is fully charged is to leave it on and look at the battery indicator at the bottom right corner of the screen. (stupid Samsung, I don't understand the logic in this.)
