Dynamic Noise Suppression from Audience

Your phone is equipped with an advanced voice processing chip that delivers clear mobile calls by suppressing background noise, intermittent sounds (like a siren or nearby conversation), and echoes, allowing you to hear and be heard nearly anywhere.

How Does It Work?

Based on the intelligence of the human hearing system, the technology:

•

The noise suppression technology is built-in and already enabled in your new mobile phone. So it's ready to provide unsurpassed voice clarity with every call.

Captures, evaluates and distinguishes all the sound signals surrounding your phone, and the person you're speaking with. Then isolates the primary voice in conversation and filters out the background noise - so the person you're calling hears only your voice,

without disturbing background noise.

Dynamically equalizes and adjusts voice volume to optimize your calling experience, so you can hear clearly and don't need to speak louder to

overcome surrounding noise.

Emergency Alerts

This device is designed to receive wireless emergency alerts from the Commercial Mobile Alerting System (CMAS) which may also be known as the Personal Localized Alerting Network (PLAN). If your wireless provider has chosen to participate in CMAS/PLAN, alerts are available while in the provider's coverage area. If you travel outside your provider's coverage area, wireless emergency alerts may not be available. For more information, please contact your wireless provider.

Emergency Alerts allows customers to receive geographically-targeted messages. Alert messages are provided by the US Department of Homeland Security and will alert customers of imminent threats to their safety within their area. There is no charge for receiving an Emergency Alert message.

There are three types of Emergency Alerts:

•

Alerts issued by the President

•

Alerts involving imminent threats to safety of life (Extreme and Severe)

•

AMBER Alerts (missing child alert)

Samsung Hub Notices

•

Any media item (Media Content) may be rented or purchased after you create an account in Samsung Hub.

•

Media Content that is purchased and downloaded may be viewed concurrently on up to five (5) devices with Samsung Hub (or “the service”) that are also registered to the same account.

•

You may remove a device from your account no more than once every 90 days.

•

You may remove Media Content from a device as many times as you’d like. You will have the ability to re-download the Media Content later subject to content re-download availability and content provider permissions.

•

You may need network coverage to access Media Content you have acquired through the Service.

•

You can use 3G, 4G, or Wi-Fi connectivity to download Media Content.

•

Unlike purchased Media Content, rented Media Content will be viewable on only 1 device in your account at a time.

•

Media Content is downloaded and saved to your authorized device's SD card. No SD Card included out of box.

Applications 82

Page 90

•

Your Media Content may pause/stop or not download in networks where there is a weak signal.

•

You may begin watching downloaded Media Content as soon as a) license acquisition has occurred and b) sufficient amount of the Media Content has been buffered.

•

You must finish watching Media Content within the time limit set out for each piece of content (which may be as short as 24 consecutive hours).

•

Stopping, pausing or restarting rented Media Content does not extend the available viewing time.

•

In no event will rented Media Content be available for a period of more than thirty (30) days (or shorter on a title-by-title basis) after the Media Content has been rented (e.g., if you begin viewing rented Media Content on the 29th day after the rental transaction, but do not finish viewing the entire title, that rented Media Content may not be available for the entire twenty-four (24) consecutive hour period if such period would extend the viewable time beyond the thirty (30) day rental window).

Unless otherwise restricted by the Content Providers, you can download Media Content to your TV using HDMI connections; otherwise, you cannot play Media Content downloaded from your mobile device output. (4/1/2013)

Samsung Link

Samsung Link allows users to share their in-device media content with other external devices using DLNA certified™ (Digital Living Network Alliance) Devices. These external devices must also be DLNA-compliant. Wi-Fi capability can be provided to TVs via a digital multimedia streamer.
