Do you try to turn off your Samsung phone? There are several reasons for doing this. To start, it can be a quick and easy way to avoid distractions of smartphones during films, meetings and other events. In addition, this is often the first troubleshooting method you need to try every time you encounter problems with your handset. It seems to solve most of the problems as if by magic. Whatever your reasoning, there are several ways to turn off or restart your Samsung phone, whether it is a Galaxy S22, a Galaxy S21, a Galaxy S20 or a previous iteration. Let's go to everyone.
Using the side buttons and the volume
More recent Samsung phones such as the Galaxy S22, the Galaxy S21 and the Galaxy S20 have removed the dedicated Bixby and Power buttons. Instead, they have only one button that works like both. This can confuse things, so let's help we understand how to use it.
Turn off or restart your Galaxy phone using the side and volume buttons:
- Press the side buttons and the volume down simultaneously.
- You will get some options. Press the electricity to turn off the phone. Select Restart to restart it.
- Press the option again to confirm.
Use the notification panel
The power button works very well, but some may prefer software actions. Fortunately, Samsung has provided many ways to turn off your Galaxy phone. The fastest could be in the notification panel.
Turn off or restart your Galaxy phone using the notification panel:
- Unlock the screen if it is locked or disabled.
- Slide down the top of the screen.
- Slide again at the top of the screen to extend your options.
- In the upper right corner, you will see an icon of power. Press it.
- You will get some options. Press the electricity to turn off the phone. Select Restart to restart it.
- Press the option again to confirm.
