It\u2019s not something advertised but it\u2019s a feature everyone else seems to know about. Well look no further, this guide will tell you in 3 clear and concise steps how to take a screenshot on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metrofone.co.uk\/manufacturer\/samsung-contract-phone-deals\">new Samsung phone<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;transparent&#8221;][vc_column_text]1. Unlock your phone and navigate to the screen you want to screenshot<br \/>\n2. Simultaneously press and hold the power button and the home button. Make sure you press them both at the same time or you will find yourself either locking your phone or exiting to the home screen. Both of which can not only be incredibly frustrating but delay what should be a quick and simple process<br \/>\n3. That\u2019s it! Your phone will have taken and saved a screenshot. You can now go to the Gallery app or the in-built \u2018My Files\u2019 folder to view and share your screenshot. Just make sure you share the right image with the right person!
