5 flexible working tips to help you boost productivity in the changing workplace
With most of us working from home, it’s quickly become clear that we need to rethink not just where we work, but how we work. After all, staying focused and on-task can be difficult at the best of times - let alone when you're busy parenting a toddler.
With that in mind, we're giving you 5 top tips to help you avoid distractions and streamline your workday, so you can sign off an a little earlier this Friday.
Stay mobile with
Galaxy Book Pro
It goes without saying that mobile working demands a certain degree of, well, mobility – after all, it’s hard to transition from office to home-office if you’re anchored to your desktop. But moving around is equally important for your productivity and your state of mind; as even just moving across the room can help spur creative problem solving and avoid mental fatigue. To stay on the move and in the groove, you’ll need a setup that can keep up with your movements without sacrificing performance. Cue the Galaxy Book Pro. With PC level performance in a smartphone-thin package, you’ll barely notice its weight in your bag, and with 4G connectivity1, you can keep working online anywhere you can find a signal – no WiFi required.
Embrace multi-device working with Galaxy Tab S7+
Although flexibility is key, don’t feel like you need to settle for less just to keep it light. If you’re the kind of person who likes having two monitors, you can still do that – without having to lug around a 32” display. By adding a tablet like the Galaxy Tab S7+2 to your tech-mix, you can extend your screen3, or add another desktop, so you can multi-screen from anywhere, whether it’s your home office or your local coffee-shop. And with the addition of the S Pen, you can actually eliminate the need for printers and paper too – allowing you to write notes, mark-up presentations, and even sign PDFs without wasting a single sheet.
Handwrite your to-do list with S Pen
It's the first thing everyone says when it comes to being organised - a good to-do list goes a long way. But truthfully, not all to-do lists are created equal. Numerous studies have shown that handwriting your list will lead to better recall and understanding than typing it out on a keyboard, as the physical act itself allows us to better internalise the information and act on it. The problem is that pens run out of ink, pencils break and paper creates too much waste – unless of course, you’re using the S Pen. With a balanced hand-feel and ultra-low latency the S Pen offers a realistic writing experience across the Galaxy ecosystem from the Galaxy Book Pro 360 and Tab S7+ to the new Galaxy S21 5G. That means you can jot down a quick to-do anywhere, anytime, on any device – and then convert it to text, should you need to share your thoughts over email.
Find focus by drowning out the outside world with Galaxy Buds Pro4
When it’s time to buckle down and get work done, focus is key. Unfortunately, distractions are often unavoidable – especially when you’re not in the office. One of the best ways to claw back some space for your own thoughts is to use noise-cancelling headphones, like the Galaxy Buds Pro, to drown out unwanted background noise. Whether you’re listening to your favourite productivity playlist, or just looking for silence, Active Noise Cancelling from AKG can help you tune out distractions - while their sleek and minimalist design means they’ll practically go unnoticed. And when it comes to video calls, you’ll sound clearer than ever before, as their built-in mic isolates your voice to help you be heard on your next team meeting.
Embrace seamless connectivity
Anyone who works with computers on a day-to-day basis likely spends a decent chunk of time each day dealing with file-transfers. But old-school transfers can be slow at the best of times and endlessly frustrating at the worst – leading to corrupted files, long upload times, and even lost work. That said, there are a number of ways to keep your transfers to a minimum and your workload moving in the right direction. With the new Galaxy Book Pro 360, you can seamlessly link your entire Galaxy ecosystem – as every app, file and edit automatically syncs across your devices. You can even share your clipboard, so you can copy text on your Galaxy S215 and paste it into a Word doc on your notebook without having to send yourself an email.
