Hello!
Is there any touch/stylus pen on the market which look like the original s pen and maybe it has the same Bluetooth functions as the original, and I can us it with my s10e or any regular smartphones or tablet?

Hello all,
I would like to know if any of the many available bluetooth styli for the iPad(s) can be used on the Nexus 7/other Android devices?
A couple examples...
The Intuos Creative Stylus
The Jot Script Evernote Edition
My main reason for finding out about this is because I want a stylus to work with palm rejection. As far as I understand, a bluetooth stylus is an active stylus and therefore enables you to use many of the apps with palm rejection capabilities built in.
If this is the case, shouldn't it be possible to simply pair the stylus with an Android device and just move on?
Thanks for replies in advance .
Question for those of you who had the original Galaxy note n7000 or i717, but also know what the 10.1 s-pen "feels" like...
I recently purchased an "S-pen Holder" off of eBay for use with my Note 10.1 (n8000), though the s-pen that comes with it is intended for the Original Galaxy Note (n7000).
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S-Pen-Stylus-Holder/dp/B0076Z3GMG
I thought that while the note devices had undergone improvements, the actual s-pens were functionally the same, so I figured I would be nice to have a more pen-like s-pen. The s-pen that fits in the holder does function, but it is definitely NOT the same. While the pen holder is very very nice, the actual S-pen that fits inside of it is absolute crap compared to the one that comes with the note 10.1. The tip is very hard, and does not have the "gumminess" that allows the pen to lay down that nice real pressure sensitive line.
So my question is, does anyone know if they ever make a less crummy pen for the n7000? Is there one available with has more of that modern Galaxy note feel to it? Or, is there a decent aftermarket pen with the same form factor?
I want to keep this fantastic holder, but I will not be able to use this s-pen. The problem is that the case only fits the pen in the shape made for the n7000 and i1717. I already asked the same question on the forums for those devices, which are ghost towns.
Any input would be great.
So I wanted to get another pressure sensitive stylus for my Tab S4 when I read somewhere that (on top of being based on Wacom technology) that some Wacom pens can work on Samsung tablets.
I tried a lot of googling, reading spec sheets, and so on when I ran across this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837743.
I'm not sure how accurate still is and, if it is still accurate, I'd like some clarification on which Wacom pens are being referred to specifically.
Basically, I'd like to know:
---Are there any Wacom pens that work on the Tab S4?
------If yes, what are they?
------If yes, does it provide similar pressure/tilt and navigation functionality as an S Pen? (Or everything an S Pen does outside of the special air wizard)
Thank you for your time

Hey dcoke, I wanted to just thank you for all of your suggestions.
After a lot of research I ended up sticking with a Samsung stylus (for pressure sensitivity & other related reasons) but I appreciated your answer all the same and just wanted thank you .
My CS 3002 Wacoms work like a charm. Precision, Pressure and Tilt are perfect
does the tab s4 have all the features of the note9 digitizer and apps?

I assume so. Outside of the bluetooth multimedia control S-Pen.
As for the other guy, Wacom Digitizers determine tilt and sensitivity support, not the stylus itself. Since I tried the old Samsung stylus that I bought for my Note Pro 12.2 and it had tilt support in it, though it came out well before Samsung started implementing support for it. That's when I learned it was the digitizer under the screen determining those characteristics.
Has anyone tried the Bamboo Tip? I really like the construction on Bamboo pens but am not sure if this works on the S4.
My son has a stylus with a super soft tip. I linked it below. It's really cheap and works well as far as s responsiveness with the fold 3. I know they tell us not to use anything other than samung-approved spens, but I'm wondering if anyone has used a third party stylus??

Fold edition of s pen has a tip that can go in a bit if you push hard. While normal stylus with hard tip that cannot, will cause damage to big screen. One you linked has a soft tip so It should work, but keep in mind the s pen uses a technology for smooth movement and such. I think it's a wacom technology or w.e it's called. So if you want that you need to use s pen and no 3rd party stylus. Since one you linked does not have technology in it.
Samsung uses Wacom EMR technology. The newer fold editions use the same wacom as they always have but they use a different frequency in order to make the device reject the older Spens. The new frequency is actually the same frequency used by wacom emr stylus that have dedicated erasers like the old spen with eraser or the norton jumbo digital pencil. If you hold the eraser end to the screen of the fold it will pick it up as it does the new fold edition spen.
That said im sure someone can come up with a workaround. You have to apply quite a bit of pressure to get the tip to retract on the fold edition spen. I never write that hard and im not sure who does. But i have spent hundreds on 3rd party emr stylus that i cant use anymore. I recently replaced a surface pro with a galaxy book flex just so i could control my pc phone and tablet with one stylus. Now i got a zfold 3 and im carrying multiple stylus. And dont get me started on the difficulty ive had ordering the cross compatable spen pro...
So if I hold down buttons (on a forbidden stylus)) I can click and drag in my fold4. It is ABSOLUTELY compatable with older stylus
Its a simple matter of having it allowing the frequency codes of the other stylus. We know it sees them in order to throw up the warnings.
I strongly believe the "will damage your screen" warnings are for gorillas who might use the phone.
I have never warn out a single stylus,
I am a very light pressure drawer and on op of that I have soft nibs & spring nibs from other pens
I want to take the risk and use my standard pens as I have many Wacom devices I use at once and it get annoying swaping pens.
Yes I have the 2-in-1 pro spen. But I dont want the hassle of having to flip the switch 100 times a day.
Same here, hope there is a workaround.
¿Any non samsung spen compatible with our fold 4? I don't want the bt version, just a standar one to have it at home.

Nillkin iSketch Adjustable Capacitive Stylus... Bought one a year or so ago. It works on ALL capacitive touch screens...
Cost around $50Aud but work brilliantly...
Quick search found here - https://www.aliexpress.com/i/4000379135172.html
You should find a little cheaper if you look as this was 1st hit I found....
I have an old Samsung HM5100 stylus and I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to be able to use it with my fold 4. If anyone can figure out how I can I will be forever thankful.
Came from Note 20 Ultra. There is no reason I shouldn't be able to use it on my Fold4.
Let us all not let this thread die, please.
I have a Note 8 AND a Note 10+.
Both their S-Pen's air gestures can be recognized by the sensors on the Fold 4's inner display.
And I'm gonna be using it with a screen protector anyway.
I don't understand WHY anyone hasn't paid attention to this thread yet.
Come on guys, you'll be collecting blessings out of this.
do the old spens of the note, tab, s series work on fold 4? I have both bt and non bt spen.

NO !
SPen Fold edition has an special "retractile nib system" to use with Samsung Folds
Oddly enough, I use the Nilikin Spen on all my devices and it works on the fold 4 even when I turn the SPEN 'off' on the phone, because it is a powered pen (chargeable) .. but- it defeats the purpose. The pen is BIG and has to be carried just as the original SPEN coming from Samsung, and the fold phones do not have WHERE to put them, unless the case has it, and I use the phone naked. Further more- I use a Samsung laptop and it comes with a built in pen that DOES NOT work on the FOLD. Frustration? Hack yeah ! So I have a pen that works on 'all' my devices, but it isn't a reasonable solution. Also - The Nilikin pen has a fairly wide tip compared to the original FOLD SPEN. Not great. Samsung must find a way, with such a bulky phone, to host an SPEN, and better be one compatible to their other devices (laptop and N10/N20 series). Pathetic solution so far for the FOLD 3/4 .
Ok, I won't buy it then!
