Samsung to launch new smartphone with 'bike mode' feature

The new handset will sport a special feature for bikers, which will assist them to have an unhindered biking experience.

Mumbai: Not even a month has passed since the launch of Samsung’s flagship S7 and S7 Edge smartphones in India and the company is reportedly getting set to announce the J3 2016 edition in India on March 31.

According to fresh reports, the new handset will be have a special feature for bikers, which will assist them to have an unhindered biking experience—maybe a feature that will allow them to ride peacefully without having to deal with notifications and calls.

Apart from muting the device, enabling the “Bike mode” will also send auto texts the callers, and ask them to call back later. A pretty cool feature while riding; one every biker would love to have.

Moreover, Samsung has also released three teasers, which does not reveal much, yet gives a slight hint about the new bike mode feature.

Over the past few days, the company has been heavily promoting the undisclosed device and have also started a contest, dubbed #TapKickVroom, to keep customers engaged.

The fact that Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor is promoting the handset is a clear indication that the company maybe releasing a special version of the J3, or any other e phone from the Galaxy J line up.

Other reports also suggested that there is an equally high possibility that the J5 (2016) might be launched on the same day with similar features onboard.

For the time being, there is no clarity regarding the device, but the company has said that the new ‘bike mode’ feature will definitely “change the way you ride.”
