Is the stylus is special like the ones you get with a Tablet PC or is just a plastic tip. Hoping for the plastic tip even though the other can be programmed sometimes.
I ask because I have 2 awesome stylus that I have put away a few years ago when everything became 'touch' with your finger .. Being I am in the jewelry business I have a Tiffany stylus and also one that a jeweler made for me from an antique pen .. the tip is ivory .. Thought I would never get to use these again.

It is special
Wacom digitizer.
Thanks. I think that my HP Tablet uses a Wacom Digitizer pen and I never use my HP tablet any more .. Laptops seem so big to me since the iPad and my Galaxy Tab.
'Some' Wacom Pens will work with the Note as will 'some' Tablet PC that supports Wacom.
Best thing about using these pens is:-
1. They are much easier to hold than the Note's S-Pen (the button is difficult to locate and press).
2. A lot of Wacom Pens (especially those found on Tablet PC's) have an 'Eraser' on the opposite end. This means you don't have to go back to the menu to select the eraser, you simply turn the pen over and use it as an eraser.
Well, not all Wacom styluses work. The Wacom Bamboo ones don't work with it.

I can tell you that the stylus (with eraser) from my ancient pre-Intuos Wacom digitizer (ca. 1997) does NOT work.
my wacom intuos 3 pen does not work
Okay.... I've amended my post to the word 'Some'.
I'll recontact my contact at Samsung and ask them to clarify.
I have a HP Pavillion tablet notebook .. Maybe 3 years old. That pen worked on my Note ..
I'm wondering if there is a fully compatible S-Pen for our P7500? If there is; could you recommend one, and share your experience with it?
Thanks in advance!
S-pen no
capacitive stylus yes
I have a styluys and it works but the tablet also detects your wrist on the screen and it doesn't work too well
There's something with Galaxy Note's screen also so you can't make use of the S Pen and that is why they are pushing Note 10.1 also....
The S-Pen uses a wacom digitizer for higher accuracy and to detect pressure. The hardware to use an s-pen is simply not there. So no there is not a comparable pen though like the others have said you could use a capacitive stylus.
I also searched 4 a while but the missing Hardware is the problem. i bought the normal Samsung stylus. it hasnt the precision of a d-pen but its okay..

Yeah hardware won't allow for that. But I just upped this thread you might find it helpful.

I just got a Jot Pro (http://adonit.net/product/jot-pro/) this morning. I'm loving it. It's accurate and looks nice too. You should look at it. It's $30, but hey, you know what they say, you get what you pay for. (It also has lifetime warranty, so thats good.)
any pen works on iPad works on tab
but no s-pen

Got the same for now quite a while, perfect pen for the tab! Give it a try!
yes there are some other s-pen works fine with galaxy note
some devices s-pen compatible with Galaxy note 10.1
HP tc1100
Note phone
Fujitsu tablet PC
Toshiba Portege m200
Lenovo W700 ..... pen works with no pressure sensitivity but the eraser works fine
Samsung Series Slate 7 ..... the pen works. Eraser also works great
HP TM2 notebook .... the pen works. Eraser also works great
I've recently discovered that the N7000 S-Pen isn't some magical new technology but in fact the same kind of inductive stylus that's offered with many older tablet PCs featuring Wacom digitizers.
I'm now using a Toshiba Portege stylus (cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170808932694) from eBay and I was previously using a HP TC1100 stylus (cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220871875156).
Apologies the above aren't links - I haven't made enough posts to include direct links yet so you'll have to copy/paste.
The advantage of the Toshiba one over both the HP one and the original S-pen is that it comes with an eraser tip at the other end which actually works as an eraser in the S-Memo app.
The button works just like the S-pen one so the usual screenshot/memo shortcuts work fine.
A word of warning though - I've also tested a Wacom Bamboo graphics tablet which did not work and don't confuse the TC1100 with the earlier TC1000 model which used a different battery-powered pen.
In short, if a tablet PC uses a Wacom digitizer and the pen does not require a battery then I think there's a very good chance the pen would also work with the N7000 Galaxy Note.
If you find any other good ones that work, it would be worth posting a reply on here so we can build a list of compatible ones.

I tried the Stylus from the Hp tc4400 (think its the same than urs) and from the Lenovo x??. Both worked great. I think every Wacom Display pencil will work.
I use the TC1100 pen, and it's fine.

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.

Someone said that if the tips are too small they wont work, but you just showed some very tiny tip stylus pens that do 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:
Pen
cue tip
foil
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

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:

That's the model I chose. Works well, not too chunky at the tip, and priced right.

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

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.
