Now you can type on the cover screen! Users can quickly check notifications, access Quick Settings for Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, browse through call history to return missed calls and reply to texts on the go using a full QWERTY keyboard. And that’s not the only good part, one can place different widgets on the small display, eliminating the need to constantly flip open the phone in order to interact with emails, messages, or calls, as was necessary with its predecessor.
