Use buttons
The quickest way to take a screenshot is to use the buttons. Press the Volume Down and Power buttons and hold them down until you save a screenshot. You can also use this method to make a scrolling screenshot.

Use apps
You can use special apps for screenshots which are very much in Google Play: Private Screenshots, Screenshot Pro, Screenshot touch, Screen Master, Screenshot Easy etc... They all have instructions on how to use them to make a screenshot and save the picture.
Use Power button
Hold down the Power button for a few seconds, then tap the Screenshot icon at the bottom of the screen. The screenshot will be captured.
How can I share my screenshots? Depending on the Android version and the custom UI, sending screenshots may differ. In lastest versions of Android (9 or 10), the quick actions menu will appear after you take a screenshot instantly. There you need to select the appropriate icon for sharing. Or just open the gallery app on your phone.
Where are screenshots saved? If you can't find the screenshots you made, don't despair. The folders where the phone saves screenshots and regular photo may be different. Again, it all depends on custom shells. A pure Android throws pictures into the gallery (DCIM). Other shells can save screenshots to a different folder for your comfort.
This is suitable for phones of all operators.
