Here's how your Samsung device can (potentially) save your life

Samsung, for example, has been endowing most of its top-tier portfolio with a handy Emergency Mode, which can potentially save aid in a troublesome situation. The Samsung Galaxy S5, as well as the Galaxy Note 4 and the Note Edge, sport this functionality, and should experience the necessity to contact a trusted contact in case of emergency, it can be of great use.

The gist of Samsung's Emergency Mode is that it's a further toned-down Ultra Power Saving Mode - it employs a similar minimal home screen layout and gives you access to a few basic apps, such as Phone, Internet, and that's about it. As we already said, you are also allowed to send a text message with your current location; you can also easily turn your camera's flash into a flashlight, and enable a loud emergency alarm.
