S-Pen Holder Kit - Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories

Does anyone know what the pen is that comes with the s-pen holder kit? Is it possible to buy a replacement? And if so, is there one available with a rubber up similar to the one that comes with the Note 10.1? The plastic tips are too slick on the glass screen?

there is no s-pen holder kit compatible with pens for the note 10.1
the old s-pen holder kit is for the very first version of pen, that is inferior to our new one.

have you tried both tips (white and black?).
I had the white one on, but once i put on my Spigen screen protector, it was way to slick... so I swapped the black one on and it works great - just enough friction but still smooth.

That's the problem. The stylus that comes with the S-pen Holder kit has the white plastic tip that cannot be replaced. I just bought the Wacom bamboo stylus FEEL. It seems great - plus the tips can be swapped from plastic to rubber.

where you bought your bamboo stylus? is it available for Indonesian ordered?

Slicker than it is without a screen protector? Without a protector and the white tip, I can't feel any friction at all.

[Q] Screen Protectors?

Straight fwrd. Looking for full coverage and at amazon,[is more recommended ]
I want to check some stuff before buying my note.
Links? Thanks!
I ordered one for the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 from Amazon and it should arrive today. I couldn't get an answer as to whether it would fit so I decided to take the chance. It's only a few bucks anyways.
I'll report back later on the fit.
I'm not sure what you mean by full coverage, but I sent a recommendation to DecalGirl to make a full skin for the back as well.

The Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 rooCASE screen protector I ordered fits perfectly including the cutout for the camera. There isn't a cutout for what I believe is the ambient sensor though.

Eventually you will have to replace the screen protector. There are two schools of thought on this:
1. Buy really cheap screen protectors and replace them often,
2.Buy decent screen protector and you won't have to replace them too often.
I use photodon MXH, which are an "HD anti-glare" they provide some glare and fingerprint reduction, without sacrificing too much screen clarity. Everyone has a different opinion on which type to get (clear or matte), but my personal preference is the matte. I have had a Photodon MXH on my Cintiq for about a year and there are minimal scratches. So minimal that I don't notice. l'll be ordering a couple for the Galaxy note this weekend.

Screen Protector?
Just curious on why you want a screen protector for the Note 10.1. Is it scratch protection, glare reduction etc.
I've given up on screen protectors myself on all of my devices since gorilla glass and with the s-pen on the note 10.1 I would have thought a screen protector would impact the writing.
Thanks

I would agree to the fact that gorilla glass is supposed to be immune to scratches but I wouldn't bet my note on that and be left without it for it to get fixed. Hence a nice protector is not a bad idea IMO.
I ordered one along with a simple case I found on ebay. As I am in the uk I wont have it until the 3d of september so k can't report back just yet

I would second Photodon screen protectors. I use it on my Lenovo X220T which also uses Wacom stylus and can confirm that it does note interfere with the stylus and is incredibly resilient. Photodon is also a pleasure to do business with and has excellent customer service.
Zagg is no good
I bought a zagg protector at best buy with the tablet.
Had to remove it because it was almost impossible to use the pen for drawing.
I have it on my phone and nexus 7, but for this particular tablet I can't recommend it.

Yes it is. If Best Buy had decent product knowledge they would know that the zagg sp won't work. Honestly, Zagg should know better too, but they are just out to make a buck.
I hope for your sake you returned it. If not you should because it really won't work with the pen.
It should also be noted that the Wrapsol and BestSkinsEver won't work either. Stick with the "hard" plastic dry install screen protectors. So far I'm having good luck with the matte rooCASE screen protector I got from amazon. I may wait on ordering the photodon.

These are the screen protectors I ordered. Install was easy enough, but I'm experienced at it. The fit is perfect.
I would attempt to return the zagg. Talk to a manager and show them how the pen sticks to it. Its not functional. If that fails, I would contact BB corporate and put a call into Zagg. But that's me. I hate wasting money. Like lighting fire to 30 dollars.

Sure thing!
So I contacted Photodon and they gave me the dimensions for their screen protector.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (#5832-01) is cut to 242.5 x 170.5mm (9.5 x 6.7”); 5/16” corner radius; camera location 130mm from left and down 11mm.
Screens diagonally less than 17” - We normally subtract 1/2mm from each dimension to make installation a little easier, so please indicate if you like your film cut “exactly” to the measurements that you specify.
Can somone confirm that this is the same as the note 10.1?

Based on those measurements the screen protector will be a good fit with the note. The only thing that jumped out is the camera hole is 11mm to the bottom of the hole, not center so I'm not sure where they measure to. The corner radius looks correct too.
I ordered a screen protector for a Galaxy Tab 2 from amazon, just so I would have something quickly and it fits the Note perfectly. I like the Photodon stuff too, but this one I ordered is pretty good so far. I'll eventually grab a Photodon though. I ordered a decalgirl backing skin last night, but I know that's not going to fit perfectly, but it will provide good scratch protection the the back plastic since I don't use a case.

WriteShield - the "feels like paper" screen protector...

Have been doing research online for a screen protector that provides a "paperlike" resistance and sound when writing. I personally find writing on a slippery surface difficult.
I discoverer the WriteShield brand which supposedly does exactly that - give you a paper-like feel.
However, from what I can see they only have it for the Tab 10.1:
http://www.amazon.com/WriteSHIELD®-...stal-CLEAR/dp/B0055T0N5S/ref=reg_hu-rd_dp_img
My question is, is the glass surface area on the Note 10.1 different in size and shape from the Tab 10.1? I know the shell size is different but I am referring only to the glass area.

I know the tab 2 is the same, but not sure about the original tab.
I have a writeshield on my Asus ep121 and it feels exactly the same as my MXH Photodon, which feels the same as the rooCase screen protector I have too.

Any matte protector will wear the tip faster.

So do all those brands you mentioned provide a paperlike resistance or is it basically the same scratchiness one gets from any matte protector?
I would ideally prefer a non-matte protector as i like a bright clear screen. I wonder if anyone makes a crysgal clear screen with a paper feel? I was under the impression the WriteShield clear version offered the same papery resistance. No?

They are ok. Mind you, a paper like feel is only accomplished when a pen gauges a surface causing deep crevices. You might not want this
Joking aside, you get the idea. These screen protectors do scratch themselves, and it's sort of a mixed bag. I have a very nice Photodon on a couple of my tablets. I really don't notice much difference. I just put those on plastic surfaces to avoid scratches, not to improve slipperiness.
I'm really not sure about a few things regarding this. I have felt nibs that do make a difference (although probably slight) but I'm not sure if these could actually pick up more particles, and in so doing cause scratches. Don't know, and that's the beauty of screen protectors; you don't have to worry.
I think i'll just use the supplied pen. Samsung brags about it's 'rounded surface', and how it will not scratch. This may be the case.
I think UltraCrystal by Spigen/Steinhil is hands down the best. can't tell it is on there and very durable. So we can confirm that the screen for the tab 2 10.1 is the same as the note?

Best Case/Cover/Shell

Just want to know from you guys experience.
Who makes the best cases/covers/shells for samsung?
And if any of you are using cases/shells/covers, which are you using? Would you recomend?
What are your experiences?
I'm not really a fan of the flipcases
Thanks
If you are on a high budget, you could look at the Impact-absorbing Tech21 cases.
Those are of high build quality.
I recently got a casemate tough case for my sgs4 mini and I am very pleased with it, both handling-wise and in terms of general ruggedness.
Did anyone get a screen protector? I loved the exim ultraprotect on my old nokia, but the s4 mini is my first phone with a capacitive touch screen and I am unsure if a screen protector will hurt its responsiveness.
I got a screen protector applied the moment I unpackaged my phone at the shop. They applied a Screenguard branded clear (non-matte) screen protector and responsiveness hasn't been an issue in the 4 weeks I've had the phone.
This screen protector ($4) is a fingerprint magnet though, but it has perfect cut-outs for the light, proximity sensors and front - facing camera as well as the home button.
Case
I just bought a Belkin case named "Grip Sheer Matte" in a blackish-brownish transparent tone for the black S4m (ha! SAM!).
It was 12€ in an electronics store here in .de but you can probably get it cheaper online (see link).
I like the soft and smooth feel. The case fits quite good and protects the back and all edges. The ports and buttons are accessible and the holes on the back for camera and speaker are in the right places.
Cheers,
CS
I bought the original Samsung Flip Cover with view... I think its the best but it was not cheap.
Just got a Samsung Flip Cover without view (which replaces the back cover). After using a ROCK flip case, a MERCURY Fancy Diary flip case and a simple metallic-red non-flip case, the Samsung Flip Cover seems to do its job best. The cover is heavy enough to hold itself down when the phone is facing up, and folds behind nicely such that it is comfortable to hold.
What's the point of having such a small metal bumper? In case of a drop it won't absorb any energy ...
Its probably to protect the original metal rim against scratches and bumps. Good for maintaining the resale value! (The screen protector will protect the front, and the back cover is replaceable)
damn.. i want those pretty and sturdy cases from otterbox, uag, spigen etc
Does the S-View cover also protect the edges?
After almost 2 months I notice that I already have a couple of bumps right on the edge of the screen. I don't want to buy a thick shell since I bought the Mini exactly because of the sleaziness and the S-view looks quite nice..

No. The S-View cover replaces your back cover of the phone. Thus it only protects the back. The sides are exposed except for the left side of the phone where the cover flips over the phone.

For me the ideal would be a bumper, so that the edges are protected and I'm not carrying around a brick. I'll keep on duckduckgoing and see what I can find..
I've been looking for a decent rubber bumper as well. I've only seen a metal one with a weird branding on the side. Do post here if you manage to find one!

Will a rubber bumper protect against a drop (say, from table height)? Will the S-view cover protect against a drop?
I wouldn't be bothered by scratch or bumps on the plastic housing. Mainly looking for protection against the screen/digitizer/glass breaking from a fall.
I bought this one.
Fits tightly around the S4 mini and does not add any bulk. The phone still looks very slim and small. Material is of good scratch resistance but probably not a real bumper. It's slightly transparent, so the Samsung logo and the silver pattern of the back cover shines through a bit. Really looks good.

I just received the same case and it is better than expected. Took less than a week from Germany to UK and less than 10 GBP Inc postage.
This case is so small and thin that it doesn't alter the feel of the phone apart from the texture. It'sthin enough to fit in my S2 desktop charger/dock and also my windscreen mount with the case on.
I ordered the following in blue/black. It looks somewhat...different! I hope it's not too much when I put it on the phone. It came to six euros which is reasonable. I'll post my impressions when it arrives.

Any suggestions for non-tempered glass screen protector?

Anyone found a good film protector that cover's most of the front surface of the phone? Thanks
Waiting on Spigen and Ringke/Rearth offerings first.
Best option would be the pure gear. Picked one from a T-Mobile store. The tray coming with the kit means effortless mounting. And the film covers the entire screen from below the LG logo to above the secondary screen minus the camera.
Sent from a TMo V20
I'm using the A.R.M station, it came free with the phone, bottom part is just stops at the bottom of the LG logo, top part just before the curve.
At present you need a TPU one for full coverage.
Thanks for the suggestions, I need to clarify that I am most concerned about the screen/black area of the front. It doesn't have to cover absolutely everything.

I purchased this one and am happy with it. Does not cover screen at curve on top and bottom. You need to start at the bottom where your screen actually lights up when installing and you will be fine.

Is the skinomi slippery or grippy? I prefer brands that more slippery like power support but they're not offered for this phone.

If I had to call it one or the other I would lead towards slippery. It feels like the actual screen glass IMO. Not super slippery, but slides comfortably.
Although they didn't give a release date, phantom skinz will have one out soon. I've used them for all my phone's and they have always been great. They also offer full body coverage as well.
I buy a bunch of xtremeguard during their sales
I'm still using the stock screen protector.

Accessories [Mod] Cut the original case

I hate the flap so I cut it off and mount the spen on the back with super glue lol
Edit: official glue at the middle. Much easier to hold and avoid rocking when unfold
the only problem with this setup would be that the phone cannot lie flat once unfoldid.

I recommend only cutting the top cover flap off and keeping the pen silo portion of the case where it is from factory. I did this today and really like it so far. Thickness of the phone stays the same when pocketed. The pen silo actually acts like a grip for your fingers when the phone is unfolded too

Right! I've been pleasantly surprised just how well cutting the front flap off has worked out. Another plus is that this doesn't interfere with wireless charging. It's pretty comfortable holding the tablet with just my left hand now too

i did try that and the moving part killing me so i cut it off too lol. The spen for me in the middle of the hand when folded create better grip (same with unfold - not moving parts)
What glue did you use for this? I wonder if I could get the stylus to stick to the official silicone case...

Just normal super glue at $.99 cent stores
I'm thinking of buying a stylus holder that you can buy and stick to just about anything. It would look and function just as similar. I hate this case but I'm not sure I want to destroy it yet. Having had a Mate 20 X I'm used to having the stylus separate. Actually still have the leather holder I bought for it.

I'm thinking of doing the same.
Here is what I did. What two pen holders off Amazon for like $15. They have adhesive that connects to any kind of plastic it won't work with metal for some reason. I also got the plastic case off of Amazon and I'm just using the back. It not only works and stays in it but it also wireless charges too even though it's held up slightly

I'm doing something similar. I ordered a couple of these:
in-Line Multi Functional Foldable Stylus Pen Magnetic Holder Comparable with 1st & 2nd Gen, Keeps The Flatness, Supports 2nd Gen Pencil Wireless Charging (Black) https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B097H5J78T/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_XP4TF2MJCCFYH0QK4250?psc=1
I liked the idea of one long pen holder instead of two small ones.
Also, if you check Amazon, those Ringke holders you have should be three for $10, not two for $15.
