In emails, videos, text messages, images etc if you click and hold down for a couple of seconds a small menu will pop up and it has options. I use it to delete single things instead of clicking the drop down menu the whole time. It can also be used to rename files.

not sure if it was already mentioned, but...

in desktop edit mode, you can change screens by swiping, but you have to start on the black edge. kinda like the mouse cursor or the history swipe in the browser.

oh and moving items to the light area on the sides of the screen during deskop edit mode will move them to the screen on either side.
