[Q] Wacom Bamboo Feel Stylus - Compatible ? - Galaxy S 4 Mini Accessories

Hi,
Has anyone used the Wacom Bamboo Feel stylus with the S4 Mini.
Does it work ? If so, how good is it.
I am currently using the basic Bamboo CS-100 stylus with a soft tip and it feels great. Am planning to upgrade to the Feel and want some info on whether it works on the S4 Mini 9192

I have not, but I do have a Jot Script (https://www.evernote.com/market/feature/stylus) and it works really well with SNote.

Doubt it will work. If it works, it would be like any capacitive compatible pen. No pressure senstive. This type of thing requries dedicated digitizer.

Out of interest, which 'SNote' app are you reffering?

I'm positively sure that the pressure sensitivity will not work on the S4 Mini as we lack the Wacom IT technology for that. At least it should work as a normal capacitive pen with a thinner tip (which is what I want)
Anyone else know of a capacitive pen with a thinner tip than the normal pens ?

Nope, as most capacitive pens requries a fairly large minimanl conductive surface. If you ever find one that works, let me know. I'm also quite interest in it.

We need an alternative stylus pen thread!

I'm pretty sure once we're all spoiled by stylus, we'll be desiring bigger styluses that will work with our phone. So anybody tested alternative Wacom styluses on the phone yet? So far the one that doesn't work according to another forum I read:
Works
Fujitsu T4210 tablet stylus Link
HP TM2 tablet stylus
Motion Computing M1400
OQO 02 stylus
Toshiba m200 stylus
Does not work
Wacom Bamboo
Intuos 2 Link
Cintiq Link
Intuos 3
Anyone here lives next to a Fujitsu or Wacom store able to test the rest for us?
Does work:
Motion Computing M1400
Which works with the Fujitsu ST5112, so by extension, the stylus for ST5112 should also work.
Does work:
1. OQO 02 stylus
2. Toshiba m200 stylus
The erazer on the other end and the buttons work as well!
I wonder which of these are the cheapest?
No one else tried other stylus?
pago sketch works good but it wont have any button....
My HP Compact TC1100 tablet's stylus works, along with the button. At some point I'll try out the eraser end too but I currently don't have that stylus with me.
Any stylus made for Windows tablet pcs--wacom stylus for those devices will work.

Aww man, I love the Intuos pens. I guess I don't even have to bother trying them now...
Can anyone recommend a good pen/stylus combo?
Cheers.
I am using a Fujitsu T2020 pen on the Note. It works perfectly! Size is right for me at least, tip is responsive on the Note, button on the pen works as it should, AND the eraser-round-tip on the other end works, without having to choose the eraser icon manually. Just flip the pen, the eraser appears.
My T2010 is a Wacom Penabled.

Wacom Pens - What will and wont work.

Hi all,
note: I understand this topic has been flogged to death and there is quite a bit of confusion spread over the net about pen compatability. Hopefully this helps.
I have not got a SGN10 yet but and looking forward to getting one as soon as my tax return cheque clears.
I thought I would share what info I have found researching wacom products.
Below is an email conversation I had directly with Wacom Australia.
Hi,
Yes you are correct in your pen knowledge.
The Intuos and Cintiq nibs will fit in the UP-818.
The Standard nib is the hardest.
The Stroke nib is made of the same material as the standard but has a spring
in the nib giving it more travel.
The flew nib has a rubber core with a plastic sleeve giving it 'flex'.
The felt nibs are the softest and wear down more quickly.
Hope that helps.

Subject: Pen and nib questions.
Hi,
I am looking at purchasing a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 which uses a wacom
digitizer. It is my understanding that this is compatible with penabled
stylus' which also includes pens from the early UD series. (but not any
other series ie, cintiq or intuos* etc)
I am looking to purchase a pen designed for an IBM Lenovo Thinpad X60T
(penabled) laptop or a UP-818 from buywacom.com.au (U in the start meaning
UD compatible, therefore penabled compatible)
I feel comfortable in assuming that the above is true.
My actual question is; Are the nibs themselves from Intuos* or cintiq
compatible with the UD/penabled stylus'? I would like to compare the
different tip types. If they do fit I would be interested in purchasing a
Cintiq 1st Gen Accessory kit or similar.
From what I can determine there seems to be 4 tip types, standard, hard
felt, stroke and flex. Does this sound right? Please correct me if needed.
Can you please list the tips from hard to soft?
Thanks for your time.

In summary;
All penabled (wacom tabletpc computers) or UD (early series wacom pens with U in the first part of the part No.) will work on the Galaxy Note.
All wacom pen nibs (the little removable tip) are interchangeble.
I hope this information is accurate. (Please let me know if I have made a mistake.) I have a IBM X60T pen on the way for when my SGN10 arrives.
A couple questions;
Has anyone tested penabled/UD pens on their SGN10?
Does the eraser part of penabled/UD pens work?
I would expect only one button of multi button devices to work. Can anyone confirm this?
Hi,
Just to update, I did ing up with a lenovo x60 pen and it does work, but badly misaligns the hover cursor as it is tilted over, which the samsung s-pen does not do. The x60 pen also seems to not register gentle strokes to start with althogh it does for the end of the lines.
The eraser end works in s-note but not in any other apps I have tried it in.
Anyways, It was worth a try, but a waste of AU$29 due to the issues
I have tried the stylus from my Note phone and also from my 2+ year old Fujitsu tablet PC and both work. One note: you have to remove the S-Pen from its holder to get another pen to work.

This is not true. you only have to do this if you have battery saving checked under pen settings. If you dont have it checked you can use any wacom pen with the spen in its holder.

I tried the pen of my Toshiba Portege m200 Tablet PC from 2004.
The pen works fine, same for button and "rubber" part of the pen, they are properly recognized and interpreted.
My Intuos stylus definitely doesn't work, but I tried the stylus from my Lenovo W700 and the pen works with no pressure sensitivity but the eraser works fine. Haven't tried the Intuos tips but from my initial inspection, they look exactly the same as what you get with the Note (and they have a few different options).

the intuos tips don't fit into the default 10.1 s-pen unless you cut and file them down to size. (too long and too fat)
but once you do, they work just fine!
Good to know, they looked the same to my eye but I didn't dig out my Intous nibs to test.
Just tried an old Wacom Graphire stylus I had laying around and it doesn't work, neither does the stylus from my Wacom Bamboo Create.

the top ones (marked with the light blue) should work, as well as any tablet pc pens that are penabled by wacom
bamboo won't work, intuos and cintiq both won't work either
also, only the s-pen is properly calibrated and all 3 of my other tablet pc pens have a slight offset from the tip (but other than that they work fine, side switch and eraser and all). honestly the s pen works really nicely, though all the pens have slightly different pressure curves so it just depends on personal taste.
hope that helps!

I can confirm that my Toshiba pen is slightly offset. not a huge deal but definitely makes it a little more messy to write with than the s pen.

same, they are irritating but still usable. mine are a fujitsu, a motion computing and an axiotron. If the HP and Lenovo are really properly-calibrated (EXACTLY the same as the S-pen) I might hunt them down?
I believe the reason your pen doesn't work unless you remove it is due to the settings>System(Pen)>Batter saving option being enabled.
I have the HP TM2 notebook and the pen for it works on my note 10.1. The eraser works in S Note but haven't tried it in anything else yet.
Got my Samsung digitizer (slate 7) pen today. Works as I had hoped, but it feels like it's just slightly off in comparison to the s pen. Enough to notice if attempting to line up the tip with a line/grid. Given a little time I'll probably just naturally compensate and adjust. It does seem a little more responsive than the Note's s pen which is great, and it's the same size as a real pen. Now if I just could just stop accidently pressing the raised control button! Mainly wanted it for the eraser function for a more natural feel.
I used to have a Toshiba M200 Tablet PC. I couldn't find the pen, but I did still have the little "emergency" stylus. Works just as well as the one included with the Galaxy Note. I am thinking about ordering the Samsung Series 7 pen. Looks nearly identical to the M200 pen.
I have try the pen comes with HP TC1100 on my galaxy note . and it works fine and nice , and I feel it better than the original one
sorry for my english
thanks
Got the samsung slate 7 pen today...the slight offset really bothers me even if it is just a bit. I'll return and stick with the original pen until I can find a better replacement. Good luck all.

I just got this; I don't like it. It feels great but the drawing is slightly offset. Too bad, because other than that it's great.
Hello,
I was very disappointed that the Bamboo pens are not compatible, i'm using this tablet for sketching so i have to find an alternative pen.
I have searched on the internet, and Axiotron's pens are nowhere to find :crying:. On ebay, they have these Lenovo digitizer pens with an eraser
Have someone tested it on the Note 10.1, is it good ? Does the eraser work ?

Small tip stylus for the I9300?

Hello,
I want to buy a stylus, but all I see is those big tip styluses, and I want some smaller tip stylus.
I know that some stylus won't work with the i9300, like the S-Pen of the note2.
So I've found some really small tip stylus pens but they are for the nintendo DS ..
How can I tell if they will work for the i9300, or they are using the technology the note2 uses so it won't work?
Thanks
Can I bump?:silly:
Check out the Samsung C-Pen. That's the smallest tipped stylus you're going to find that works on the S3.
The Nintendo DS has a resistive touchscreen, so its pen doesn't have ANY technology... It's just a piece of plastic.
Since our touchscreens are capacitive it isn't possible to get styli that small without an extra digitizer layer like the Note 2 has. C-Pen is as small as it gets for us.

Can you explain a little bit more please? do you mean that the C-pen has more than just the tip? it has something inside it like the S-Pen, or something just on the tip?

Nah its just a smaller-than-normal rubber tip that only works well with Samsung's devices. I think it has to do with how their capacitive digitizers are set up... More dense than others perhaps? I've heard reports of people trying to use the c-pen on other non-galaxy s3/4 devices but they have to push down really hard to get it to work.

NDS styluses will not work as they rely on pressure. The stylus that i just showed you does work on the i9300. I personally have one and use it myself

Alright I'll try to explain the differences in touchscreens:
1. Resistive touchscreens. These rely solely on pressure, thus anything can work on them... Even cheap plastic like on the Nintendo DS systems. The downfall of these types of screens are that they're not ideal to use with your fingers since light touches are usually not recognized, so a stylus is necessary.
2. Capacitive touchscreens. These rely on completing an electrical circuit between the digitizer and the object touching them. Turns out our fingers are perfect for this, but small plastic styli like the DS stylus cannot complete the circuit and are unusable on these touchscreens. Special capacitive styluses (these are the ones that will work on your i9300) use material that can complete the circuit, like rubber/soft plastic or foam. The downside to this screen technology is that you can't use precise styli. The jot stylus mentioned earlier is a innovative approach to fix this but it's rather restrictive on how you can place the stylus to the screen... Watch videos and you'll see what I mean.
3. Active pen digitizers were specifically made for digital artists to begin with to offer a high level of precision when using a stylus on a tablet. They were really only used on PCs and Macs. However recently Samsung did something brilliant and combined an active pen digitizer by wacom (the best in the business) and a capacitive touchscreen to get the best of both worlds. I'm referring to the Note devices and the S Pen.
In short, you want a capacitive stylus. The C-pen is a capacitive stylus that's smaller than all others but only functions on the galaxy s3 or s4. The Jot stylus is also a capacitive stylus that has high precision but the point is a circular transparent disc... So its kinda odd at first.

+1 Good stylus indeed. But you have to do some modification before use so as to prevent skipping if you are writing. But cautious to have a screen protector as it might scratch the screen when using.

heres what you need:

cut the tip of the que tip and insert it in the pen where the hole is.
use a strip of foil and make it slightly touch the cue tip and wrap it around the pen
when using it make sure that you touchh the foil

Compatible pen for Tab S 8.4

what is the compatible pen for tab s? I tested the note s pen and its not working. I want to know if there is a same pen like S PEN that can work with my Tab S cause I dont want to use stylus. Its hard to write.
S-pen works for inductive screen only, which the tab s doesn't have. However it has very accurate capacitive digitizer. You can use any fine tip capacitive pen. For me it works better than the s-pen of the note.
I'm picking one of these up tomorrow...

Does work, will post some examples after a bit of practice.
My handwriting resembles most Doctors illegible scrawl so I'm not sure if the quality is a function of my handwriting or the inaccuracy of the pen yet.
But it definitely works.

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.
