Tab S5e questions

Edgie70 — Thu, 17 Jun 2021 09:29:53 GMT

Hi all , my Tab s5e has arrived and I've set it up , couple of questions though , on my Tab S2 9.7 there was an option to turn off WiFi during sleep , that doesn't appear to be there , so apart from turning off WiFi is there a way to make it go off during sleep ?? Also the screen is nice but my S2 seems brighter and more vibrant , it's no big deal but the screen settings seem not very vibrant apart from adaptive display but that changes depending on the app ?

I have found the screen to be very bright, have you tried to turn the brightness level up?

Hi , yes I've turned it up , when both the s2 and S5e are on half the s2 is definitely brighter , I have to put the s5e to 3 quarters to be equivalent . Don't get me wrong the s5e is definitely bright but not as bright

In advanced settings go to bixby routines. From there you can add a routine for WiFi to be off. You just choose time period under if. Then for then choose WiFi to be off. Which will be under connections. Hope I explained that clear enough. I've only just worked out how to use bixby routines myself.

Hi Fiona , thanks for your reply , it's not quite the same , my old s2 when the screen was off it would turn WiFi off automatically after about 5 minutes , then if I turn on the screen WiFi would come on , so if I'm on and off my tablet a few times during the day then it would go off when not using it , I can see the only option is to leave WiFi turned off at night then manually turn on when needed

Some more information on Bixby routines here, beneficial for many situations even if not quite the method you prefer. https://www.sammobile.com/tips/7-examples-how-to-use-bixby-routines-samsung-phone/

Thanks James but it really needs the " turn WiFi off during sleep " under WiFi settings to work as it did , I'll just toggle WiFi on when needed and off when not in use
