Summary
The Samsung Note 8 screen can be set to rotate sideways or up.

It can also automatically flip back and forth as the phone is moved about.

To set the option, pull down from the top of the screen and select the portrait feature.

When it is selected, it will flip between modes. When it is turned off, the screen will be locked in a vertical position.

This is a very handy option and is used often when taking pictures since they can be wider and fit better in a frame.

The same can also be done when taking videos, as the frame can be much wiser when horizontal than vertical.
