@stoopid: While @Moiramon has highlighted what I would consider to be the best alternative means of capturing a screenshot besides the Volume Down + Side button approach, you may also wish to consider these other methods. 

- Head to Settings > Advanced features > Motions and gestures > Palm swipe to capture, and toggle this option on. This allows you to swipe the edge of your hand across the screen to take a screenshot.

- Head to Settings > Display > Edge panels > Panels > Tasks (tap the circle above the panel so a tick appears) > Edit > Make sure that 'Take screenshot' is included in the panel options on the right side of the screen. If not, scroll to the bottom of the page, and select it from the 'Advanced features' options. 

Head back to Settings > Display > Edge panels > Handle, and set this up to your preference. Now, you can swipe your Edge panel handle to open the Tasks panel, and select 'Take screenshot' from here.
