Here’s a complete guide to take screenshots on the Infinix Note Edge with XOS 16: Power + Volume Down, three-finger swipe, Quick Settings tile, scrolling/long screenshots, and voice commands via Google Assistant.
The Infinix Note Edge launched in January 2026. It runs XOS 16 on Android 16 with a 6.78-inch 1.5K curved AMOLED display at 120 Hz, Dimensity 7100 processor, up to 8 GB RAM plus virtual extension, and a 6500 mAh battery.
Taking screenshots on this phone is simple and gives you several clean options depending on what you’re doing. You might want to save a webpage, capture a chat, or keep a receipt—every method works smoothly and saves straight to the Gallery in a Screenshots folder.
The big curved screen makes it easy to check what you just captured. The processor handles everything fast, even when you’re stitching long pages together.

Here are the main ways to do it.
Method 1: Power + Volume Down (The Quick Standard Way)
Hold the Power button and Volume Down button together for about one second. Release both at the same time.
The screen flashes once. You hear a shutter sound unless the phone is muted, and a small preview pops up in the bottom-left corner. That means the shot is done.
The buttons sit on the right edge and feel solid. If the first try doesn’t register, just press them more evenly. The curved sides don’t get in the way.
Tap the preview right away to crop, draw, add text, or blur something before saving. Ignore it and the full image still lands in Gallery > Albums > Screenshots.
This combo works anywhere—lock screen for notifications, inside videos, even during calls.
Method 2: Three-Finger Swipe (Great for One-Handed Use)
XOS 16 has a built-in gesture that feels natural on the tall display.
Go to Settings, then Special functions or Gestures and motions. You might find it under Additional settings.
Look for Three-finger screenshot or Three-finger swipe down. Turn it on.
Back on any screen, put three fingers together—index, middle, ring—and swipe straight down from near the top.
The screen flashes, preview appears, capture saved.
The gesture picks up reliably on the AMOLED panel. Keep your fingers close and move smoothly but not rushed. If it triggers by accident, head back to the same menu and switch it off.
Once you get the motion down, this becomes the fastest way during reading or scrolling.
Method 3: Quick Settings Tile (No Hands Needed for Buttons)
Swipe down twice from the top to open the full Quick Settings panel.
Find the Screenshot tile—it usually shows a phone frame with a camera icon.
Tap it. The capture happens instantly.
If you don’t see the tile, tap the edit pencil in the panel, then drag Screenshot from the available list into your active tiles.
This option helps when one hand is busy or you need to be precise.
Method 4: Scrolling / Long Screenshot (For Full Pages or Chats)
Take a normal screenshot first with any method above.
Right after, tap the preview thumbnail or look for the Scroll, Long screenshot, or Capture more button in the editing bar.
The screen starts moving down on its own. Tap Done or Stop when you reach the end.
The phone stitches everything into one tall image and saves it.
XOS 16 handles this cleanly in most apps and websites. Make sure the page loads completely before you start for the best join.
Method 5: Google Assistant or Voice Command (Hands-Free Option)
If you can’t touch the screen easily, use your voice.
Say “Hey Google” or hold the Power button briefly to wake Assistant, depending on your setup.
Then say “Take a screenshot” or “Capture the screen.”
It grabs what’s on display and usually asks if you want to share or save.
This works well for accessibility or when the phone sits on a stand. It sometimes needs a quick internet check the first time, but basic captures run offline on newer Android.
A Few Extra Notes That Help
The preview thumbnail stays visible for a few seconds—tap Edit to crop around the curves or clean up edges.
In Gallery, long-press screenshots to delete several at once, share them, or move them to Private Safe for hidden storage.
Want no shutter sound? Switch to vibrate or silent mode first.
XOS gets updates often. Check Settings > System > System update now and then—new versions sometimes make gestures sharper or add better editing tools.
Start with the button press since it always works. Try the three-finger swipe next for speed. The large screen and quick software make editing and organizing shots straightforward.
Get comfortable with one method first, then add the others as you need them. Screenshots on the Note Edge quickly become second nature.
