Samsung and Microsoft today expanded their partnership by announcing new Microsoft Office, Teams and Outlook experiences for the newly announced Samsung foldable devices including Galaxy Z Fold3 and Galaxy Z Flip3. Find the details below.

Microsoft Teams:

  • When you unfold a Galaxy mobile device, you can see a presentation in full-screen detail and the faces of your co-workers on the Teams call underneath.
  • Also on that Teams call, pull up the Whiteboard and draw what you’re explaining on the board with an S Pen.

Microsoft Outlook:

  • With Microsoft Outlook’s dual-pane mode for Galaxy devices, you can read a full email while previewing others on the side, just like on a desktop.

Microsoft Office:

  • You can now run two instances of the same Office app.

“With the Multi-Active window, you can run multiple apps at the same time,” says Patrick Chomet, executive vice president, head of Mobile Products & Experiences at Samsung. “For example, you can open Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint and easily drag and drop a table right into your presentation. Now, you can even run two instances of the same app.”
