s pen? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i was wondering if there is a stylus like the s pen that comes with the note? i know there is the c pen for the s3 but the tip looks a lot bigger than the s pen. i want one with the small tip like the sPen. thanks

No body uses a stylus?

spen is different from the regular stylus. note has a special digitizer than the ones use in other smartphone to interact with it . as for alternative... probably gotta spam through ebay and see if anything rings up

To my knowledge, no. The C-Pen is thicker because it is like any stylus for an iPhone or iPad, just mimicking your finger touch.
The Note S-Pen was capacitive so it could sense pressure and do fine details. I don't expect it to work on the S3.

Adonit Jot Pro Stylus compatibility with Samsung GT 7.7.

I have been thinking of ordering an Adonit Jot Pro stylus for the Samsung 7.7. I asked the vendor in ebay about it's compatibility with the samsung 7.7 and I was informed it is not compatible.
Has anyone ordered the Jot pro? If so, It'll be really good if someone could write a review on the performance of jot pro on the 7.7. Thanks.
From Adonit webiste:
Compatible with all capacitive touch screens: iPads, iPhones, MacBook Trackpads, Magic Trackpads, HTC, Samsung, Nokia, Motorola, Blackberry.

This answers your question. So this will even work with any capacitive-screen phone.

I read a blog review of this stylus and they mentioned that it didn't work well with certain screen protectors.
I'm going to order one later I think, thanks for the heads up
Edit - maybe not, just read some Amazon reviews...
They look silly with the suck cup like thing on the tip we need ics to hopefully be able to use a regular pen like stylus
Using Galaxy Tab 7.7 P6800
just bought a jot today
it is not working well with my 7.7
i don't think it's the matter of the screen protector
have to tap real hard for one successful response, which makes annoying tapping sound
i have dagi P507 and P301, both work quite well instead
I got my jot pro today. It took 13 days to reach me. Quite a long wait. But it was worth it. The moment I received it, I tried it with Supernote. It works flawlessly. Only regret is the lack of palm detection.
I also tried it with TabNotes pro. Works even better. There was no noticeable lag in the input, and I'd rate the precision of this stylus at 8/10, which I'd say is pretty impressive.
For everyone's info I've installed touch screen tune. Haven't tried without it. Will uninstall touch screen tune and post the difference.

I guess the digitizer would make the tablet thicker but nothing betters a WACOM -- it just works. No clicking, is pressure sensitive, has eraser function and on and on.
i got my jot pro a few days ago and had a blast with it. and while it's not pin-point accurate, it's miles better than any 'usual' stylus I've tried. works great with the super note app and sketchbook pro.

any more reviews for this ? very interested in it but im afraid it dont work as well.
without a screen protector and just bare glass, I recommend this one:

Given the screens highly sensitive nature I don't think you have to worry about scratching it with the metal ring, since you won't have to press that hard. It also has a smaller tip that provides greater accuracy even though this device can recognize capacitive objects as small as ~2.5mm^2 (I've tested it).
The mesh allows it to glide without any real issue, plus adds a great deal of durability since it won't wear out like foam or rubber tipped ones.

[Q] Stylus does work on Xperia Tablet Z?

I tried 2 stylus (the jot pro and a 3M stylus) but both do not work. Regardless whether i I am using screen protector or not, the screen does not sense the stylus at all. Have you guys got the same issue?

XTZ does not support active styluses like s-pen from samsung, it can only detect a passive stylus...
passive styluses don't come with a fine edge so don't think that any decent work can be done with the stylus like writing notes or something.
Any standard capacitive stylus should work with it, and I find ASUS' stylus headset and a cheap stylus both work. Pressure sensitive types that require bluetooth may be problematic.

Any capacitive stylus _should_ work. I recommend the Wacom Bamboo Solo stylus. It's pretty good, but still not as good as an active stylus like the ones the Samsung Note series uses.

S-pen holder.

Hi y'all.
I love the functions of the S-pen. However the physical design leaves a lot to be desired. At least in my clumsy paws.
Samsung makes an S-pen holder that adds a great deal of good ergonomy, sadly though it is made for the pen of the original Note.
You can see an example here:
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=160955124637.
Please - does anybody know if the SGN3-pen will fit in this holder? It probably won't be a good fit, but that can be remedied. As long as you can close the holder over the pen and the button works.
Regards
Elo.

No. It's note 1 only accessory. You still can use note 1 pen with note 3 but it will have much less pressure sensitivity levels.
If you need thicker pen go for a wacom bamboo feel.

S Pen 2 in 1

has anyone come across a 2 in 1 s pen stylus. One that looks like a real pen, has a ballpoint in it as well as the S pen nib and action button.
I'm always having to swap s pen for a real one as I use the S pen a lit. Used to have a 2 in 1 stylus in my Palm Pilot days, it was a really smart one looked like a Mont Blanc and was a very useful bit of kit.
I'd be grateful if you could keep your eyes open.

If there was a ball point in s pen that will leave marks on phones screen dam.. I will never use such pen on my note 3

tell Samsung, maybe they will make one.
Bamboo made a duo stylus. I know they make a full size s pen as well for tablet use. Maybe check with them if they make dual sided pen.
Thanks folks looks like I'm going to have to go for a dedicated s pen like the 10 inch Note one.... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B007V2G59K/ref=pd_aw_sbs_2?pi=SL500_SS115
It's the lack of balance with the shipped s pen which makes it tricky to use for long periods of time.

I know the note devices use Wacom touch screen technologies, and so does the Microsoft Surface Professional series. So if you find a stylus that works on the Surface Pro it will also work on the note. I have a surface Pro and have tested this on numerous occasions. Hopefully that broadens your search a little.
Hi - I'm looking for an SPen which fits the Note 3, which includes WRITING INK. I've searched the net but can't seem to find one. I used to be able to get these replacements on my old XDA a decade ago. Is it possible to get a real ink pen that fits into the Note 3 in replacement of the stylus?
PS - I don't use the SPen features, so I really don't need the standard SPen functionality whatsoever.
[Alternatively, do the 2in1 pens for the Note 10 that are discussed in this thread, also fit comfortably and slide into the Note 3?]
Many thanks,
Rob

stylus with eraser capability?

I love SNote and the standard stylus is nice, but I don't like needing to switch back and forth from the eraser whenever I make a mistake or what to change something. Is there any way to add a virtual eraser tip to the SPen, or is there an alternative stylus that can do this on the NotePRO?
There is a larger S Pen called the S Pen with eraser. That should work on the Note pro. On the back it has an eraser.

The 8pi.
Does the 8pi fit in the stylus slot?

No, it is much too large.
Has anyone tested the 8i (S Pen with Eraser)

I am also looking for a addition S Pen for my 12.2. I tried the Bamboo and it was way off target. It seemed that the point of the pen was off by approximately 1/16" of an inch. The problem is the sensor is too high up on the pen and when the pen was angled for normal writing the target would move down. I have not tried the 8i, I assume the same problem will exist. Has anyone tried this pen? I found one review that stated that it had the same problem as the Bamboo Stylus. Can anyone confirm compatibility?
I found an old (really old) tablet PC pen that works with the Notepro. It has an eraser and everything. The barrel is broken, so I am going to remove the guts and make my own pen. I haven't been able to find one that looks stylish so I hope to be able to.create what I want in a pen.
