I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my two extra note 7 styluses work in my note 8. They appear to be identical - other than the color. I didn't do much testing - and I'm using my Note 8 stylus for now. Let me know if you have any success or discover issues.

Good find! I know some of the reviews I watched for the Note8 mentioned that the stylus is the same exact one from the Note7 with the same features and level of pressure sensitivity.
I thought if I remember right the old note styluses like the Note 5 Stylus worked on my Note 7 and I'm sure older ones may have worked for the Note 7 or other Notes it's just they didn't fit correctly in the hole.
Note 3 stylus works, not fits, good enough for a spare...my Note 7 stylus works great but not going to put it in..lol
I like the eraser function when pressing the button during typing...

The Note 7 stylus fit perfectly in my Note 8 no problem.
yes stlus fits and works. a tap different due to the note 8 being and upgrade but works all the same.
I got an extra black and silver one. tho i never lose them
I heard the new has more pressure points

It has more pressure points compared to the Note 5 stylus. Samsung's marketing forgot the Note 7 existed. Reviewers just parroted the marketing spiel.
The extra pressure points are in the note 8 DISPLAY and is not dependant on the pen. Otherwise every device with wacom technology would be easily upgradable just by buying another stylus. It doesn't work that way. The pens should be exactly the same.
are the tips the same from the 7 to the 8?

might just be me but the tip does slightly smaller than the note 7s. I still miss my blue coral note 7
I'm pretty sure they are exactly the same. No point in manufacturing something if you still have lots leftover from last year
that's good then if the same. I still have 2 from my note 7.

Hey guys! I just bought a Palm Folding Bluetooth Keyboard for my Note. I thought it would be the perfect companion for my Note especially since I have a case with a kickstand. Do any of you have one? How well does it work? Mine won't get here until next week so...

How much?
I bought it used for $29.99 + $5.00 shipping, they seem to be MUCH more expensive everywhere else on eBay.. funny I believe these were cheaper before the iPad came out and "Tablets" became popular.
The issue with my by keyboard (not palm) is that every time I connect it makes me switch to the Samsung soft keyboard. Total pain.

My Moto BT keyboard switches the phone to Samsung kb also. It must be either 2.3.6 or TW doing it, rather than our hardware. But it is a pia to switch back every time.

have the same one, but branded HP. It works well, i wrote a guide somewhere here (topic titled "just got this for my note!") the only thing is, the note wont stand up in portrait mode of the stand, and to make it work in landscape you have to clip off the two protruding tabs on the flip up stand.

Mine no longer does anything when I press and hold the BT pairing key in the top left; oddly at first at did give me blinkies and my N7 saw it, but had trouble pairing. I've tried numerous batteries and even voltage tested to make sure they were good.Anyone have suggestions?

Quality Keyboard Case
I ordered one similar from caseinthebox.com. There was some skepticism about the validity but I paid via PayPal and chose slow boat from china delivery. The keyboard is removable which I liked. I will update once I get it in 10 to 20 days.

Wait up! I bought a case for the Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 when I ordered my Tab Pro 10.1 and the case doesn't work for my Tab Pro 10.1.... So be careful because there's a good chance it will not work...
You may be right though because this one is a leather case with opening on the corners, and the one I purchased was a hard case and covered the corners, so I couldn't get mine to fit into it because of that. From the looks of this one it should work, but better to be safe and take your tablet with you and ask to try it.

i appreciate the link but that is not near the quality i was looking for.
Neither Samsung has the best quality. I bought a flip cover original and had to polished interior. Camera image quality was affected.
Does anyone know that Xperia Z2 Tablet works with Stylus ? I mean regular tablet stylus like Wacom bamboo, Adonit Jot, etc.
I've seen a video on YouTube that shows it doesn't work well on it and we should push it so hard to work. is that true ?
Well I have the Bamboo Stylus pro(5mm) and I apply medium pressure on the screen for nice strokes so its kinda in between - not to hard but not to soft either.
So its alright

But in my experience it's not good at fine, detailed strokes like those you need for taking notes or writing a letter.

Yeah but in my experience with different passive touchscreen tablets they are never really suitable for notetaking in comparison with an active digitizer tablet

Exactly, I have a Wacom Intuos 4 tablet for professional digital painting but my idea was to sketch and paint some simple designs with this little handy tablets. by the way would you tell me that is the stylus functionality as good as Samsung note 10.1 2014 ?
If it is notetaking that you want then this tablet I am afraid is not for you if your going to use words by a stylus instead of a BT keyboard. It is usable of course but in no way can you make fine strokes that are as tiny as with a real pen. I have a surface pro 2 and that one is specifically made to support to these things.
For me I would choose a Surface Pro every day if I wanted a good tablet with pen support and the Galaxy note is a close second, so to answer your question - no, stylus support on the Z2 will never be as good as the Galaxy Note's because of the fact that one has real pen support and the other one doesn't.
I hope that helps you in your decision

thank you so much I appreciate it , I really like surface pro 3 and Wacom Cintiq companion but these are a little bit expensive and I can't afford it.
anyway I hope sony add some new features like stylus in upcoming Xperia z3.

Yes it is compatible, I have one that I use with mine.
Only thing to mention is that there is a slight offset between where the nib touches the screen and where it actually draws. It's only a fraction out, not a big issue for me as I find I naturally compensate with use. I trimmed the length of the nib a millimetre or so to reduce the offset. Might be an annoyance it you want to do fine or precise drawings though.
Interesting option

Problems with alternative pens, offset issues, no soft nibs - only hard nibs.
I think I'm going take a risk and try this inexpensive option I found on Ebay, you use your original pen and all the issues with offset and having a nib choice are nonexistent http://www.ebay.com/itm/Convert-you...603c75&pid=100011&rk=3&rkt=10&sd=321754572930

But then it will no longer fit into the slot on the tablet. I suspect that's a problem with all after market pens.

But you can keep original S-Pen in slot and use it on the go. Then just keep this as "secondary pen" if you draw with your tablet on home or something like that. Anyway you will need another stylus since Note Pro's stylus wont fit to that accessory, as it says on E-Bay page:
Compatible with S-Pen Size for Note 3 and Note 4.

Agree with the offset issue but the stylus in question comes with both hard and soft replacement nibs, at least mine did.

Hi, I was wondering how big or small the Tab S7 Plus is overall compared to its spiritual predecessor the Note Pro 12.2 that I own. I was wondering if anybody who has both tablets would be kind enough to share a few pictures of both side by side. Thanks in advance.
Here's the 12.2 Dimensions 295.6 mm (11.64 in) H 204 mm (8.0 in) W 8 mm (0.31 in) D Mass 740 g (1.63 lb)
and here's the S7 Plus Dimensions 11.22 x 7.28 x 0.22" Weight 1.30 lb
I just sold my unlocked 12.2 which I thought I would have forever. Only sold it because of the S7 Plus which I am hoping Sammy in the US will allow pre-purchase this week. As you can see, the Plus is smaller all around with a slightly larger screen. The weight difference is a little more substantial. The weight on the Pro with Keyboard cover made it a much heavier device overall, but I haven't seen the dimensions on the Plus keyboard cover yet. I suspect that I'll own the Plus as long as I owned the Pro 12.2.
Thank you for your reply. I wish you had held on to your 12.2 just a wee bit longer so that I would have had a chance to look at photos of them side by side.
It's a lot smaller. It doesn't feel like it to me coming from a Tab S6. I had a Tab Pro 12.2 but don't remember it being as big as it clearly is.

Since the OEM keyboard case for the 12.2 overlapped the four corners of the tablet, I'm sure it seemed much larger than the Plus with OEM keyboard cover.
Thank you to everyone who has replied so far. Much grateful and appreciated.
Hello,
I'll send you pictures tonight (I don't have my Note 12.2 Pro with me, I'm at work with my Tab S7+ only).
But from what I experienced until now, it that I finally the perfect new tablet to replace the old one. I was looking for 12" only because I read a lot of comics and others on tablet so I need a big screen.
I have the Note pro 12.2 since years now and it did the job but became very slow even if I could upgrade with latest customer roms.
The new Tab S7+ is just amazing. Screen is brighter and the tablet is just so fast !
About battery life I don't have enough experience but of course because tablet is new, it works for a very long time (I used the tablet for days before recharging).
But tonight I'll take pictures and even a video so you'll see by yourself.
@luffy092, if you could post some pictures and/or videos that would be really great.
The tab S7 + looks noticeably smaller and thinner and feels significant lighter than the Note pro 12.2.
I'll try to sell both of my Note pro 12.2s.

Picture
Finally received my S7+ today!
Here is pic of it sitting on top of my 12.2.
The thickness is nearly identical, 12.2 is a little thicker.
@grayhawk...Thank you for the picture. Is the s7 plus wider in landscape mode than the 12.2 because the dimensions on paper suggest differently. The picture where you have the s7 plus on top of the 12.2, shows that it is wider but shorter in height in landscape mode than the 12.2.
