Is anyone using stylus with our phone? Which one you use?
I tried Notes stylus and it didnt work.

The Note stylus ONLY works with the Note, thanks to it's active digitizer.
I'm using an Adonit Jot Mini on my S3, and even then only when I feel like doodling or annotating stuff. For serious stylus work the screen is not precise or fast enough IMHO.
Maybe it'll be better with JB and Butter.
bought this stylus to use on my sgs3 and gtab, but to my suprise it doesnt work on my tab.
anyone know why? its a capacitive stylus

For whatever reason it only works on the S3 and somewhat on the Note as I've seen in some videos. Get a better stylus, it sucks anyways.
I was planning on buying too... you cannot expect it to be like galaxy note quality. And I got myself a elago stylus.

I bought a three pack for like a $1.50 on Amazon for my Dad's ipad and it works great on the S3.
Currently not being productive on my S3.
Its something to do with the higher than usual refresh rate of the S3 screen. I wish it worked on my Xoom.

Is the refresh rate adjustable? I liked it because of it's small tip

Does the Note's S Pen work with the Galaxy S3?
Nope, s-pen is an active digitizer. There isn't the same tech/hardware in the g3 as there is in the note

Go on eBay and search Galaxy S3 stylist, and you can get one that works for the S3. The price range is $. 99 to $29.99. They have some almost identical to the Notes S pen, for one just like that you are looking at around $29.99

That same pen is cheaper on eBay though.

There is nothing for the S3 that will be comparable to the S-pen on the note. The C-pen is decent, but it's not going to be as precise, or responsive as the S-pen.

Is the c pen more accurate than one of those ball tipped sylus pens? I have one of those and it writes very broad lines

The c pen is definitely more accurate than the ball stylus pens due to the slim tip so you can actually see where you are writing. The only problem with the c pen is that it will occasionally not register as touching the screen.
I bought one because I take a lot of notes using S memo and I had an extra $20 bucks laying around lol. So if you can spare the cash I would reccomend it over the ball stylus pens but just know that it will only work for the s 3

Either that or i'd just get an Adonit Jot stylus....
I just use one of the ones that have a rubber ball at the end.
C-pen didn't work out for me, because it's design a little bit fat. I guess, that's the only way to have stylus is to buy Galaxy Note Series . And also they have wacom grid, which can sense pressure.
good info

C pen is so expensive. How little are you really gonna be clicking? S3 doesn't have the special touch screen built in like the note so the pen gets bigger or smaller from how hard you press anyway. Any cheap stylus will work great. I got a laser, flashlight, chrome pen, and stylus in one for like 6 bucks at Monoprice. Works better than I dreamed.

lol oh man almost a year later, but here it is http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=112&cp_id=11201&cs_id=1120105&p_id=9719&seq=1&format=2
At least now I can give a mini review. It works great as a pen and I use it whenever I have to sign something. Stylus tip still works fine and always has no problem with responsiveness. Only thing that sucks is the flashlight and laser died fast. It's all chrome and black so it still looks nice, but I have no idea how to put a new battery in. I even called and asked them, but how they said to do it was still impossible.
Gday,
Pretty happy so far with this, but looking for a stylus that feels a bit better in the hand.
Been looking at the 8pi (non-embedded) stylus for the note 10.1 but nowhere that I've searched says that it works with other note devices. The replacement one seems to, but theres always a tag at the bottom of each description i find saying 10.1 only.
I cant see this really being the case, but I thought it would be easier to find information saying it works or not.
Thanks for the help!

I have the S-Pen with eraser and like it a lot. Eraser works great. And it feels great in the hand, just like a regular pen.

I have the 8pi from Amazon. It works well with the Note 8. But I had to adjust mine in Lecture Notes by 5 pixels, it was off by just a hair. I like it better than the built in pen. The one the Note 8 comes with is too skinny to be comfortable. I don't really use the eraser end. It's easier to use the regular button (in lecture notes).

Thanks for replies. Bought it and works a treat! I did notice just a slight offset especially using hover but I'll address that if i need to.
So despite Samsung's warnings etc.
The Galaxy Note 10.1 8pi S-pen works and is compatible with the Note 8.

Even my Thinkpad X200 Tablet stylus works on the Note, and it's even better because the butt end works like a eraser. I don't when Samsung did not include eraser function into their stylus, obviously the function is already built into note and note 2 since both uses Wacom technology.
awesome I just ordered one off Amazon for 16 bucks
