The image shows Windows software running once the Note 6 is docked. It seems like Samsung is developing the Note 6 running on Android by default, which can switch over to Windows when it is set into the laptop.
The Note 6 will obviously come with an S-Pen. But patent releases from Patently Mobile suggest a revolutionary idea on cards by Samsung which is to implement the S Pen as a stand to the device. The idea is that the pen could be pulled out halfway from its holder and locked, to prop the Note 6 upright to let you watch video and other media more easily. As seen in the images below, the pen-stand could be locked back in two different ways.
