$80 for the Carbon.... DANG! ...and it doesn't look like it has eraser.

Yeah, was waiting for this to drop today but it still says coming soon on the black one. I can hold out a little bit longer.

hmm looks like they only ship to the U.S..no canada love
oh well it should show up on ebay soon!

I'm watching this too, but I will wait until some reviews come out

In my haste to order a stylus, I ordered one from Amazon and thought I chose the note 10.1. Instead I grabbed one for the regular note. Worst part is... I ripped the box trying to get it out. Now I have a $38 stylus that doesn't work. Why can't I use an Intuos one... those look nice and comfortable.

I ordered one from the Wacom site since it doesn't seem to be available elsewhere in the USA. I should get it early next week and I'll post some impressions. I assume it should should behave just like a s-pen but have a more comfortable feel since it is more pen like.

Eraser or no?

Oh nice! I've been hankering for a fatter stylus.

Never mind... I made a total NOOB mistake. I forgot to turn off the "battery Saver" in pen settings... now the pen works. WOOT!

Sweet deal on the white ones.
Thanks

I purchased the white Bamboo Feel pen/stylus from Wacom and received it Friday, after using it over the weekend I can say that I like this pen much more than any of the others I have tried. It feels very balanced in the hand, and the tip/nib had a very nice feel to it much like writing on paper, even with a screen protector on my Note 10.1.
I have tried many others, the stylus that came with the Note, an old pen enabled stylus, the pen holder by Samsung and even though these stylus worked fine, this Bamboo Feel, came out the winner. It tracks perfectly, feels great in my hand, and most of all, feels most like using a regular fine quality pen on paper.
I like it so much that I am going to spend the extra money and order the more expensive carbon fiber one, just for the added weight as I like using a heavy pen when writing on paper. The weight on the white one is fine, it is heavier than any other stylus I have tried ( see above) but I think I will like the carbon fiber even more as it is twice as heavy according to the specs.
This stylus does not have the eraser on the end, if this is something you prefer.

Anyone know of a good full size stylus that has a pen also?

Awesome! Does it come with replacement tips? I know the OEM Note 10.1 stylus has a hard plastic and a 'rubber' tip.. not sure what the bamboo one has..

I just received the carbon fiber model. I really like it. I tried the S-Pen Holder but didn't like the feel of the plastic tip and unfortunately that can't be swapped out like on the s-pen. The bamboo stylus FEEL comes with the rubber tip installed and has replacement tips of rubber and plastic. The weight of the pen is nice and heavy - like a fine pen. This should make note taking much better (and I already thought it was good). The obvious downside is the high price. I would have gone with the black version, assuming it was priced the same as white, but it isn't available yet.

Question: is it possible to use this pen with a note 2 and note 10.1 simultaneously?

I can't see why not. There isn't any device programming done to the stylus, so it sold be able to be used with multiple devices no problem.

This makes sense, but for some reason I have found I cannot use the note 10.1 stylus on the note 2, or vice versa

I didn't play with it long enough to care to find out. It was that "odd" to handle.
Sadly that doesn't make it a "thin" stylus by any means.
I saw one being advertised on barnes and noble's site for the nook that "looked" thin but I haven't checked it out to see whether it was just the photo that made it look that way.
So I found a stylus that has a smaller surface area. Its the same thickness as a regular pen.

If you want to draw on your E4GT you should really give the Jot Mini a try.
http://www.amazon.com/Adonit-Stylus...LTAU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338263247&sr=8-1
It is very accurate, much more so than ANY bubble-tip stylus and it registers very well on the E4GT's screen. I use one myself. It is also nice and small which makes it easy to carry around with your phone.

[Q] Thoughts on the Samsung S III C Pen

Hey guys,
In excitement to receive the new S III on Verizon, I have set to search for cases, screen covers, etc. However, I happened to come across the Samsung S III C Pen in another post and was wondering what your thought were on it. Has anyone try it yet?
I'm an Animation Student in Digital Arts, and would like to use the C Pen for quick sketching on the S III.
The Samsung's link is here:

While I can't speak to the C Pen itself, my understanding is that it is just a capacitive stylus, unlike the S Pen for the note. That being the case, you will probably end up with a similar experience to other capacitive screen styli. Their quality can vary greatly but they are all just trying to replace your finger.

I don't think this is true. I saw a video (can't remember where now) that showed this C Pen in use and although it wasn't like the Note's S Pen, it wasn't like a normal stylus either. It is supposed to only work on the GS3 from what I understand and the person in the video used it on an iPhone to prove it. I ordered one yesterday. I will update this post once I get it and let you all know what I think of it.
I also have the Galaxy Note phone so I will be able to compare the 2.
i have watched one video, the only thing interested me...was that the stylus works only on S3, but no respond on iPhone.
Just wonder if it was true or not. and whats the point for that....:good::good:
I bought one last week and ended up sending it back. It looks and feels fantastic, but it didn't work that great with my screen protector installed (Zagg InvisibleShield) The surface was too "tacky" for any real precise usage. I mainly bought it for Draw Something and stuff like that. Now if you don't have a screen protector it should work perfect. Also I was under the impression that you could use it on tablets as well, going off the Amazon description that says: "Replacement for using fingers on your tablet or smartphone touchscreen" Sadly that isn't the case. I tried it on my Acer Iconia a500 tablet and my wife's Galaxy Nexus and it didn't do a thing. That's mainly my fault though for not doing research on it before hand and just going off of the Amazon description. So all that being said, if you don't have a screen protector installed or have something other than a Zagg InvisibleSHIELD, you shouldn't have an issue with it.

If it is the same as the Zagg where the screen protector is tacky, then it will probably have the same results. It would probably work better if there isn't a screen protector on there or a crystal clear one. I have a regular capacitive stylus and using it on my Transformer, you can feel a little resistance with a "tacky" protector.

The SGSIII uses a capacitive stylus. I tried my GNote stylus on the SGSIII and it does not work. The GNote can take a WACOM (Stock) stylus and a capacitive stylus and work I believe.
I do like using S Memo from my GNote to jot notes so I ordered the OEM Stylus for my SGSIII as well.

Yea I know. I also have the GNote but I also have the Wacom Intuos 5 tablet and my GNote stylus does not work on it and the Wacom stylus does not work on my GNote either. I also ordered the OEM Stylus for my SGS3. Should be here early next week. :good:
And for the OP. Your first mistake was putting a Zagg shield on your phone. I used to use them on all my phones pretty much when they were the only option but Zagg shields suck. They're tacky like you said and they discolor, turn an ugly brownish color and the corners eventually peel (quicker than most other screen protectors I've used). There are plenty of better options out there now. I, personally, choose to keep my phones naked now. :cyclops:

A wacom pen works with magnets. You can actually write though something as thick as cardboard and it will still work.

any update? how do you like it?
I got the C pen today. If you are thinking it will be close in operation to a WACOM pen or the Galaxy Note, it is not. Not even close.
The C pen is well made but the rubber tip skips along and is not smooth. I have not quite figured out the best angle for writing (I am left handed). The C pen does work for flipping screens and apps etc.
I will keep it and play with it some more, but it is really more of show off feature that is not nearly as useful as it is on the GNote. I wanted to try it because I do actually take and keep notes on my GNote. I will update if I discover anything new.
The S pen is absolutely not worth it. It doesn't work on any other devices besides the SGSIII
And it really doesn't work any better that other styli on the SGSIII. The only thing it has going for it is that it looks beautiful.

S Pen Holder - Nylon tip -OK on GN 10.1?

Hello everyone!
I just received my Samsung S Pen Holder Kit. It arrived with a stylus that looks to be made for the Galaxy note S3.
The seller on ebay stated that it is fine to use on GN 10.1. It has, or what looks to be a nylon tip and the instructions state that it is non-replaceable.
It works and responds great and the Stylus button responds as well.
My question is, will this tip cause problems on the screen in terms of scratching, gouging, etc?
Thanks.
Mine has the same tip as yours and has not caused any problems so far for me, but I just got mine too .

Ok, i have another 7 days to return the GN back to BB if there is an issue. It writes and feels real good...
The barrel pen feels real good so far, what say you?
I say the same. It feels and writes like a real pen. Glides nice and smooth on the screen. I have used it quite a bit tonight without issue, no scratches, gouges, or marks so far. The pen is weighted just right and the right size for me. Now if only i can just get used to the button and quit taking screen shots while I write.

Ditto, ditto and ditto... too funny on the screen shots... welcome to the club on that one!
I was concerned over the differences on the tips.
I recapped 3 meetings notes tonight and cant see any degradation in terms of screen scratches.
The biggest problem is my wife see's the s-pen and picks it up and starts to use it... not good!
I was just wondering this. That pen was actually made for the Note 5.3". The reason why I'm doubting this is because Sammy did change the tip on the 10.1 pen...its a softer tip. Maybe they changed it because it does scratch? 5.3" users did report some scratching. I think im gonna stop using it and get the real 10.1 S pen holder.
Basically I dont trust it, eventhouhg it looks nice.
This is the real one you should be loking at:

you do know that the note 10.1 stylus (that was included with your tablet) has white nylon nibs as well, right? They came in a little baggie. The nib alone shouldn't scratch it as it's hardness is much lower. get a piece of grit stuck between the nib and screen though and all bets are off.

My 10.1 came with the white nylon nibs as well as the softer black ones. This is day two of my using of the pen kit on my 10.1 and not a signal mark. l always make sure my screen is clean before putting any s-pen to it. If I ever do get a mark I will make sure to post about it.

that's odd. Mine came with five (5) black with white center ones and two (2) completely white ones.
Just checked mine and it indeed came with the Nylon hard tips so scratching shoulnt be an issue. So question now is: Is the old pen to do 1024 levels of pressure? Or is this done on the screen itself?

you can actually put the stylus in the holder backwards so that the button doesn't line up with the button on the holder, it's worked great for me like this for a couple weeks now.

The pen does the pressure sensing... you can test out by holding the tip of the pen real.close to the screen and pressing it with your finger.. the tablet registers touchs depending on how hard you press without touching the screen

There are two versions of this pen....at least there are two part numbers. Anyone know the difference s. I just got the one that was llisted on the. Samsung 10.1 site. One it's ETS110EBEGXAR. The other is ET -S110EBE GSTA
Has anyone heard rather there will be new nibs for this s pen.. I have a wacom intuos 4 pad It came with several different type of nibs. I find the spring loaded ones work best for me with the input setting set to very sensitive With the spring. It really feels very much like a graphics style pencil with very soft lead..
Anyway my questions . have anyone tried the intuios Nibs or if there might be different ones available
guys please they are called NIBS.. Not tips . giggles..
thanks for a reply in advance . i will be picking up the note monday after two failed attempts on getting a good nexus 7 . was not going to get the note because i own the intuos but now i believe this could be awesome for doing on site print/ structural changes.without having to drag out my big notebook and so on...
the intuos/cintiq nibs do not fit the the stock s-pen that comes wit the device. The diameter is too large.

[Q] Best Pen for Note 8.0?

I'm still waiting to get my Note 8.0, but I was wondering which pen would be a good purchase for the most natural drawing experience?
Is there any pen that is equal to or better than the S Pen? My only real concern is that it looks a bit thin and uncomfortable to hold.
I know this can be somewhat remedied but placing the S Pen inside the housing of a click eraser... But that seems kinda clunky to me. - What do you do if you need to use the side button?
Idealy I would want a pen that is comfortable to hold, has two side buttons just like the Cintiq / Intuos Pens, has an eraser, and can be calibrated to be *at least* as accurate and sensitive as the S Pen.
I've heard that the Bamboo Feel Pen (that was designed for the Note 10.1) doesn't work so well on the Note 8.0... Is this true? Anyone here given it a try?
Anyways, so what are my options?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: Perhaps this thread would be placed in Accessories - Mods?
I have the 8pi pen, its thicker and has an eraser end. I found it is off by 5 pixels, but I only use it in Lecture Notes and that app is able to correct for it. But I wanted a better, heavier more real pen feeling pen, so I ordered the Bamboo Feel. Based on the Wacom email it could take 3 weeks for me to receive it though! Whenever I get it, I will post a short comparison.

An offset is something I definitely don't want in a pen. I'll probably wait on your review on the Bamboo Feel... Or if anyone else can confirm if it has an offset or not. I really like the look of it. I have a 'feel'ing it will be a really nice pen.
Sorry for the intromission in this theead... but have the same problem.
Want any suggest on a pen for my device. A capacitive pen, but not the classic with large point.
I haven't note. To me too expensive. Have a gt-i9300, a galaxy tab 7 and a zte v11a.
Someone can suggest ? Thanks a lot!

Our company used to use a bunch of old HP Elitebook convertible tablets (2510/2730), I discovered the styluses work with the Note devices and I've been using these for my Note 2 and Note 8.
The styluses are similar to these: http://www.amazon.com/HP-digital-pe...8&qid=1367096073&sr=8-2&keywords=2710p+stylus
This is the cheapest I've found (can go for up to $60), but I like the thicker pen for more control.
The nice thing is the back end of the pen works like an eraser in some apps.
The spen that comes with it is the best ive used thus far. I have the one with the eraser and the plastic nibs and horrible offset have me using the included spen.

This is disapointing to hear. I bought the larger spen before I bought the tablet as I wanted something that would feel better in my hands for drawing. I'm guessing there is no way to correct for this offset unless the specific app you are using has that functionality.
From what I understand, any sylus that is compatible with wacom tablets, should be compatible with the note series. What I dont know if there will be an offset on these as well though. I really hope not or that they can be re calibrated. I intend on using the attached spen and a seperate stylus on my tablet and id like them both to be correctly calibrated.

Thanks for this info. As I said in the reply above, any stylus compatible with wacom digitizers should be compatible with the note. What worries me is that there may be an offset with other styluses on these tablets (as seems to be the case with the 8pi pen). If thats the case, then the benefit of the technology is greatly diminished for drawing purposes.
The styluses seen for note and note 2 seems too much like the stylus of my old bamboo graphic tab... am i wrong?

I am using the Samsung Bluetooth S-Pen.

It is not a difference in terms of functionality. But feels much better due to its bigger size and weight. And it includes tips that are somehow coated with rubber which makes writing on screen a little more comfortable.
I got my Wacom Bamboo Stylus.
I haven't used it enough to be a good judge of offset, except that it definitely has more of an offset than the 8pi, and Lecture Notes can correct for it in landscape but I haven't been able to correct it in portrait mode yet (still trying to figure out the settings). If you need to use it in apps that do not allow you to adjust the offset, you can either use it vertically to the tablet (90 degree angle) with no offset, or shorten the nib. It appears the offset in any of these pens is related to both how much of an angle you write with, and how long the nib is sticking out of the pen.
I like the added thickness of the Bamboo Feel. It makes it feel like a real pen. It also feels heavier than the 8pi, but all the weight seems to be in the cap, making it feel top heavy when writing, so I'm undecided whether the weight is a plus or not.
It does not have an eraser end like the 8pi. This doesn't bother me since I disliked using it in the 8pi. It felt a lot more awkward and inaccurate to use than using the other button to switch between pen and eraser.
Both pens have a clip. The 8pi has a plastic clip vs the Bamboo Feel has a metal clip. I like the Bamboo Feel's metal clip much much better. The clip on the 8pi looks so fragile I'm afraid to use it. However the clip on the Bamboo Feel is study yet flexible enough that I can clip it to the side of the fake leather Moko cover that I'm using (till the Samsung and Poetic covers arrive). It is possible to keep it in the pen loop on my cover, but it only barely fits, so it's much more convenient to clip it to the side of the cover. I think this will allow me to use it with the thinner covers without a pen loop, so this pen will become the one I will be using daily.

No, the bluetooth pen is much bigger. More like a real pen. But a big one.

Stylus

Just got the Galaxy Tab S2 wifi version. Anyone using a stylus? Its hard to look for one that works and i want those pointy ones and not the rubber button thick tip.

I love using a stylus with my S2. I think I actually do so more than I used the S-pen on my previous Note devices. I am actually just using one of the type that you described because I found a few lying around. I wouldn't mind upgrading to a more... stylish stylus (heh) but the kind I'm using does work quite well. Let me know if you find a nice one that you like :good:
Personally I just use a cheap and cheerful stylus from the pound shop. Maybe one of the soft rubber ones that you don't want (it's dome-ended and semi-flexible, not pointed) but it works well enough and if it breaks or dents (the body is thin aluminium) then just replace it with a new one. My S2 case has a pen/stylus loop to store it, and for me it's fine.
My kids also use styluses (stylii?) on their tablets (Hudl's) - they have solid novelty ones that look like pencils but again work fine (although are a bit chunky and small for my adult hands).
So after checking out amazon and some local stores, I still have not found the best pointy stylus that I want but one that I can compromise with and some others.
The Adonit Jot Pro really works, but just worried about the plastic that it will eventually scratch enough of the screen.
The cross dual stylus is the one I compromised based on that it has a pen and the slim and firm rubber of the stylus. Can be slippery to use as a pen though.
Bamboo's smart stylus pen, though advertised to work for samsung galaxy devices does not work. I tried it at a local bestbuy.
But you could get the one from Bamboo with carbon fiber tip (not pointy) and that one works.
Maybe buying this in the future to just try Lynktec Apex Fine Point Stylus. It is advertised to work with galaxy tab s2 in the shopandroid website.
Hopefully you guys can find better than I do.
does this tablet have a pressure sensitive digitizer? someone on Reddit said it did...
Hey guys, I just got a pack of styli that I ordered from Amazon this AM and I'm finding them to be pretty nice in addition to a killer deal. I was doing some research on the topic and found a couple that looked good in a Lifehacker article, but checking out the reviews lots of people had some kind of beef with their recs and they were about $15 each. Browsing around Amazon lead me to these: http://www.amazon.com/Bargains-0-18...49936069&sr=1-2&keywords=bargain+depot+stylus which looked like they were worth a shot, so I grabbed a 4-pack for $9, because math.
So they just showed up about an hour ago, and I would definitely recommend them. The stylus itself has a bit of weight to it, so it feels like using a decent pen, and the tip feels like it's just the right size. In addition to a bag of extra tips that you can switch out if necessary, each has a cap also which I thought was a nice touch. So I'm not sure if this is what everyone's looking for, but if you want a comfortable/precise stylus you really can't go wrong here.
Does anyone have any stylus-centric apps that they frequently use? The S2 is my first non-Note device in a while, so I'm used to doing things with an S-pen that a stylus isn't capable of. I just DLed Google Handwriting Input and Squid (nice for marking up PDFs). I use mine just for swiping around a lot because I have a tablet stand that's a little far from my chair, but I'd interested in hearing about any other apps :good:

I use the Cross Samsung stylus/pen -- basically it is an C pen (not S pen) with my 8" S2 for handwriting on the screen - best handwriting programs for me FiiNote and LectureNotes and OneNote

That's the model I chose. Works well, not too chunky at the tip, and priced right.
Did u end up getting lynteck fine point.
OK, so how do you guys carry the stylus on your tablet? I'm using the Samsung book case because I love the thinness and the way the flaps work. I bought the Large Pen Loop by Arune on Amazon and just don't like the way the stylus just flops around when it's in the loop. I'm thinking of some type of leather or plastic sleeve that can stick on the case and the stylus slides into it.
I thought that a stylus don't work on galaxy's tab s2 9.7 lte alias sm-t 815... yet I See that a metallic thing work as a pen... with a pencil it don't work... this only could work with Wacom displays and a magnetic overflow...I'm confused. ..
im using the 'amazon basic' stylus and it works great with my s2 8.0...
But this is not this what I mean... If u heave headphones so u should try to use the tap with the jack plug as a pen so the spen also should work... I try it tomorrow

Thanks for the info Do your stylii deal with pressure sensitivity ? I plan on buying a Galaxy Tab S2 and use Medibang (drawing app) so I really need a stylus that recognizes pressure changes.
(sorry if my english was bad btw ^^)
is there a stylus bluetooth and an app with palm reject on s2 t815?
sorry for my bad english

You are never going to find a stylus for the Tab that will even approach the tip of the S Pen because the S Pen has nothing to do with the TouchScreen. The S Pen on the Note interacts with an electromagnetic screen placed behind the LCD screen in the Note. Tabs don't have that screen. Instead a stylus for a Tab depends on replacing the "capictance" of your finger with that of the stylus's rubber tip. Can't do that with a tiny tip.
However, if you read further down in this thread, you will find a stylus that does have a much smaller tip than normal. The only problem with them is that the tips must be replace every so often because their special capacitance quality "wears out" with use. Thus the replaceable tips that come with the stylus.

No, because the bluetooth receiver in the Tab would have no way to determine the exact position of the external bluetooth pen.
