Is the s pen bad for the screen? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Sorry for the noob question but I'm curious if there are any long term affects on the screen when using the S pen a lot.
This is my first Note so I'm not used to using a stylus with a tip.
Thanks!

This pen was made to be used with the phone so I would say no. Also, all the marketing for this phone highlights all the features used in conjunction with the Spen. Now if you used some cheap knockoff you may have an issue

The only problems you might run into is dirt on the screen. The s-pen could scratch the screen if the pen picks up the dirt then travels along the glass. A simple screen protector will prevent that from ever happening. Spigen makes glass protectors if you don't like the feel of the plastic ones.

Thanks! Yeah I'm not a fan of plastic screen protectors, but I just ordered a glass one from Spigen. I'm curious if I'll like that better.

It adds a little thickness but you only notice it around the home button. Spigen included a riser sticker for the home button but I actually prefer going without it.

Display Scratch

Hey guys,
I have the S3 now for about 3 weeks, and I'm realizing that I've got a big scratch on the display, you can just feel it with your finger nails, but I think it's about 1, 5mm deep, and on the side a few little scratches. Do you have scratches either? How can I remove them without investing much money? Thx for answers! )

I do, but they're too small to notice. You can't remove them.
PS You have no idea what you're talking about when you say 1.5mm...That's HUGE
Then 0, 5mm
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
maybe, probably less.
So yeah, you can't remove them
You cannot remove them but you can prevent them. Invest 10$ and purchase a really good screen guard..

A screen guard may well cover and hide your scratch .

Can you recommend a screen guard ?

Incipio Feather Case.

Hello everyone. Today I will he sharing my thoughts on the Incipio Feather case. Now I got this case yesterday and I have to say, this case is very lightweight and minimal. It has a sort of smooth case on the backside. The volume rockers and the power button are exposed with no casing for easier access. The top headphone jack and microphone is not covered as well as the bottom usb charging and spen holder. The only complaint I have with this case is the front edges and not covered. There are no hard covers blocking the screen from totally touching the ground or where ever you set the phone down.

I just think the note with a screen protector is where its at ... Cases make the bulky phone even bigger ... Without one is better for my pocket

S-view edge like razor blade...

Anyone filed down the edges of the SView case? It's so sharp it could cut cheese.
Mine is alright. ..

I have the white one and I noticed the same thing. Although being able to slice cheese is a very commendable feature I'd prefer something a bit softer to the touch.
Mine started to feel crazy sharp after a day of use. I took it off and will probably return it.
i have a black one and not sharp at all
Have both white & black, neither are sharp...

He didn't say slice cheese, he said "cut cheese". Very different and not so commendable.

Defender for note 3

Just got mine from fed.ex today.. Must say very impressed,very slim(close to the commuter) barely any bulk. Screen guard is pretty good aswell,no rainbow or fuzziness like the defender for the s3.

Rubber also feels pretty tough,like its half tpu...maybe its just me..
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Good to know they are trying to make it less bulky... I remember iPhone 4 one literally triples overall thickness. I might consider getting one.
Awesome ! I look forward to getting mine.
Got mine from fed ex today too.....same as op im impressed with the slim-ness of it. Definitely an improvement on the note two especially as the home button is now covered. The rubber is very much different to the old one but all in all im pleased with my purchase.

How well does the S-pen work on it?
How does the holster look compared to the note 2 version?

Rainbow is all over mine depending on the light reflection.
Can someone post pictures of their black Note 3 inside the Otterbox Defender? I can't wait until mine arrives!

It looks the same!!! Could have done with some cut outs so if the phones in the holster with the screen facing out you cant get at the S-pen

For my note 2, l removed the Screen protector and use a tempered glass instead because the screen defender provided look and feel quite cheap.

Iloome saved my phone

Took a 20 foot fall off of the top of the pilot house of one of the vessels I am working on. Hit one of our condensers right on my screen then another 30 feet down to main deck.
The Otterbox Defender helped too.
But if it wasn't for the Iloome screen protector, my screen would be destroyed.

Glad your phone survived it's adventure, and good to hear the iLoome + Otterbox Defender combo worked so well - it's what I'm using too.
I almost cried as it crashed to the deck... I ran down as fast as I could to see the damage. I thought my baby was done for. Luckily the screen protector took all the impact from the first hit and the case took the rest as she tumbled down 3 more levels.

It was the thicker one. I think the flex is made of thick plastic. This one is tempered glass.

According to iloom, the flex is glass.

No issues at all. Everything was running perfect.
