try the adonit jot, its by far the best capacitive stylus I have used. Very Smooth control and optional rubber grip make it awesome to use.

Where to buy? Do you need a screen protector with a stylus?

This is the absolute best stylus for note taking I have encountered. Bar none.
Login here.
Click on blue BUY button in the upper right corner.
That should do it?
To the best of my knowledge, the only screen protector, so far, reported to block the Jot is Ghost Armor.
My dry apply generic one works fine.

How much did you have to pay for shipping?
Never mind just found out it is $15.43...wow that is one expensive shipping cost.

Yep its not the cheapest stylus but for $35 and $45 for the pro (shipping included) it well worth the investment if your really into taking hand written notes or drawing

Seems like a really neat idea to make a transparent capacitive surface so you know where you're writing. Although looks like it might snap easily if you forget the cap.

They posted a video showing how hard it is to pull it off
It's both in the Adonit Jot thread and on their youtube site..

Any cheaper solution? I was thinkinh th amcase from amazon at 9.98 with the 2n1 pen and prime shipping. Reviews seems good.

trust me its worth the investment, before the adonit i had bought 3 styli each about $12 and none was good enough.

Are there any really good note taking apps to work with this in handwriting mode though, the bamboo stylus works well on the iPad because there is a proper app to go with it, I have wasted so many hours trying to find something that actually works with handwriting & converts to usable text. If this stylus is so good & accurate then what is the best way to capture handwritten notes that can be converted to text ?

Having bought 3 stylus' so far and none being to my liking...I just purchased the Jot...I hope it's what you say it is.

I'm still "playing" with SuperNote finding most useful.

CNET has a video on making a stylus with a pen a bit of sponge and a paperclip.

The design is good. The cap screws on both ends, with a big enough thread not to strip easily, and not to lose. It works better on slightly larger letters, so writing large letters and auto-shrinking seems to work great. Otherwise, pinch zoom to write larger and shrink back to view would also be ideal, like ezpdf.
I like my Jot. Good luck.

I purchased this one. Have yet to use it yet, but it is getting good reviews. Cheap too.

I have had an Acase gen 2 stylus and after about a month or a little less the rubber tip began to crack. It lost if rigidity and now is almost useless to write. You have to mush too hard for it to make good enough contact and work.
I picked up a DAGi P504 and it was good, but after a few days it simply stopped working. Very strange.
I recently received a Adonit Jot, and it is the best of the bunch. But I dropped it on day four and the disk on the end split in half. Turns out it is two thin disk glued together with some metallic material in between. I have read that this has happened to others as well. You have to buy a two pack of replacement disk for $8 plus almost $6 for shipping. I'm going to try ans glue it back together and see if I can get it working again with out having to replace it. At least the **** didn't break then I'd have to replace it. Just so you know what you may get into.
Still the Jot is the best option out there at the moment and worth every penny id I don't have to keep replacing the disks every week.

New S-Pen with Grey Button?!

Noticed that new SGN units come with an S-Pen that contains a Grey Button instead of the respective color of the pen. Anyone else noticed this?

That would let us see the flipping thing instead of hunting for it every time!

I bought a spare stylus and it has a grey button, i confirm

Just got my note yesterday, it had a pen with grey button. I'm having problems with the button though, I find its not very responsive when trying to Swype the menu and back functions, I have to press much harder on the button and screen than I am comfortable with.
Is this same with the other pens?

Drop of Tippex or Nail varnish on the button - done!
Agree though that a different coloured button should have been on all Note stylii!

The S-Pen button is on the same side as the "clip" though, so I never have problems finding it.

Does anyone know if you get some type of paint / nail polish / sticker that glows in the dark. i use my phone a lot when the lights are off when my child is sleeping and would prefer something that is easy to find in the dark.

If you added coat of nail polish, it should be fine.

Well your all talking about stuff you can see. Seems kinda pointless if you still gotta look to find it
What it needs is texture so you can find it without looking. I'm thinking their might be just enough tolerance in the pen slot to accommodate 2-3 little bumps.
To make a rivet effect before (on a steam punk esque phone I made) I've sliced the round ends off of hairbrush bristles and superglued them on. Think I'm gonna try that

Good to hear Samsung are listening to our rants. The pen was quite awkward to use. Slight sideline, but just out of interest, has anyone noticed any other micro changes with the new production notes apart from the pen change? Any screen improvement in particular banding, black clipping etc.?

Has anyone noticed improvements? and if you have, can you post some pictures for backing up your claims. thank you!

I used a grey colored sharpee pen to mark up my button.

Quite right!

I can confirm that the "new" S-Pen has a grey button. I actually got the new one with the S-Pen holder accessory (I thought it only came with the outside holder... turns out it also comes with an S-Pen so... free S-Pen?)

free ? the lot costs $35 for just a plastic holder that would be
quite expensive. So for the holder+extra pen the price is right.

[VOTE] What is the best s-pen?

Samsung Bluetooth S-Pen HM-5100 (s-pen with microphone and speaker!)
Samsung S-Pen ETC-S1J9 (s-pen of the Note 2!)

I have all of them except the one with eraser. You forgot the ET-S110EBEGSTA "S-Pen and Holder."
Of them, the one that feels best (not to hold but to use) is the BT S-Pen. It feels most natural against the display and doesn't feel draggy like the others sometimes can. The rest more or less feel the same against the display. The S-Pen and Holder feels best in the hand.

I have #3 and really like it.

I know that the microphone on the HM-5100 is designed for using the tablet as a phone but it would be great if somebody could design an app that functioned similarly to the LiveScribe Echo Smart Pen.
I've had this thing for a few years now and it's amazing for taking notes in seminars.

Yes. Just flip it over and erase - exactly like a pencil.

I have pen number 3. Would like to find a pen holder for my 10.1. Even though the s pen in the 10.1 is slightly larger it is not nice to hold for long periods of time.

When you say they feel draggy against the screen did you try the white tip that came with the note. Because the black and white is rubber and white is plastic so it just slides across the screen with no friction.

The S pen holder for the Note 1 doesnt support the extra pressure sensitivity, do that leaves the one with the eraser or the Bluetooth one.
But why would u need a pen with a mic if you already have one in the tablet?
That leaves the eraser one as the best.

Because holding a tablet up for a call, trying to put in earphones for a call is a hassle. With the BT S-Pen it can be left in the pocket, like a normal pen, while the tablet is in your bag. If a call comes through the pen vibrates to let you know about it and its a hell of a lot easier, not to mention quicker to answer a call by just hitting he answer button. A bluetooth headset would also suffice but who wants to be wearing that around all day....

I was using the Note on a flight recently before the door was closed so the person next to me saw me using the pen as a pen. When I got an incoming call and answered it with the pen my seat mate looked at me as if I was just let out.

I have the one with the eraser and it is great. What is the usage of the blue tooth phone? What are people doing with it?

It's really just a BT headset contained in a pen. It beeps and vibrates when you receive a call. By pressing the button on it you can initiate a call or use the S-Voice functions if you have it installed. It's good for occasional use. I wouldn't use it as my primary phone or even as a replacement for a BT headset if I was using the Note for a pre-planned conference call.

I just use the speakers. I know that won't always work, but neither will a pen.

No. If you look at the photo in the op you can see that the size is slightly larger and easier to hold, which is what makes it a better stylus.

would love to see S4 function on our note 8.0

Just went to the Samsung shop today, many S4s are in stock and waiting for people to grab it lol.
So I gave it a try and playing around with new functions, such as S Translate, it looks like google translate lol nothing really impressed me there. but I do love the one with eyes scrolling page while browsing, even though it kinds of slow but it just awesome.
So I wish to see them on our beloved note 8.0 lol that's all ;p

I have an s4 as well which i am selling, but i would like to get the air gesture and smart scroll function on our note 8, i would assume note 8 has the sensor for it since we have that smart stay and that air view with our pen

All of those can be ported as soon as I get the device. I.E il be building android 4.2 which will be our base to port s4 rom.

I remember reading somewhat that Samsung will be porting some of the features to their older flagships I.e. Note 2 and S 3. Wish I could remember where though. Can't remember if it was a reliable source or just some fudd blog.

The S3 may not support this feature, due to some hardware limitations (sensors maybe), or its just a kernel thing..

If you mean proximity sensor I think someone mentioned that the Wifi-only model doesn't have a proximity sensor.

I believe the SGS4 has TWO Proximity Sensors for the Hand Gesture features...one on each side of the earpiece. There is also an Ambient Light Sensor for auto display dimming, and the Front Facing Camera. The FFC (maybe combined with the proximity sensors?) is used for Smart Stay/Scrolling. The IR Blaster is used for Remote Control of your TV/DVR/STEREO using the Peel or Watch On apps.
Here is a closeup photo of the S4:

I don't think that the Note 8.0 3G+WiFi version has the Second Proximity Sensor that would be used for the Hand Gestures and possibly Smart Scrolling? Here is a photo of the front of the 3G Note 8.0. I see a Light Sensor, a Proximity Sensor, and a FFC:

This would be disappointing if its true, I would be happy even if only the vertical scroll air gesture could be done on the note 8. the smart scrolling is useless I have it turned off on the S4.

You can sort of get the air gesture capability by using the S pen and pressing the tip with your finger while holding it close (but not touching) the screen. Works well for scrolling. Selecting icons takes a little bit of practice as holding the s pen tip down too long results in a long press (on my 5110 it's real touchy).

LOL! Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing--it would be really nifty to be able to browse the internet without touching the screen (or the S-Pen), but just with air gestures (for when hands are dirty). It is too bad it seems like we won't see that functionality on the Note 8.

Instead of using the proximity sensor...
What about looking at using the Wacom Digitizer tech instead?
So the digitizer layer tracks the S Pen in a magnetic field... it would be a matter of determining what it is inside the S Pen that's being tracked... then perhaps buying some cheap alternative pens and removing parts.
Perhaps there is something small that could be stuck to a fingernail?

That's a clever and fascinating idea.... I'd be very interested to hear the results of any experimenting that you or others do with that.

Yeah. Gorgeous screen of Note 8 now only needs S4 features and it will flatten all records.

Would you guys return this Note 4?

I posted this in a verizon note 4 section. Would you guys return this Note 4? I bought it on ebay and it said excellent condition. Cosmetically, it is like a 9/10, but when a white background shows, it shows the screen burn in. Bought it for 180 plus shipping.

If they did not state screen burn in, in the description, return it. There are other Note 4's out there that are in great shape.

First, from the pic you posted, I can't see anything wrong with the screen. Maybe it's just not being picked up by the camera, or maybe I just can't see it (I do have my glasses on though), I don't know.
Second, it's a 3(?) year old phone at this point. If it's cosmetically in great condition, and it's still usable, and the screen issue (which again, I can't really see in the pic) isn't distracting while you're using it, then I say keep it. Especially if(?) you're just using it as a secondary/backup device.

Guys, even as a back up to my S7 edge, I have my sim in the Note 4 right now. Honestly, besides specs, the S7 edge has the fingerprint going and better camera imo. If the Note 4 had the fingerprint scanner and Better cam, I might've considered my S7 edge as a back up lol. maybe

I returned it. I bought a better one, but it has a pink tint/hue near the bottom half. Excellent conditio, though, not too much of a hindrance.

You do know the Note 4 has a fingerprint scanner, right?

We can't! We would have to see a picture of the screen taken by another device and even then the burn-in would have to be very significant in order for it to show up on a picture.

If you don't believe me try taking a picture of your device's homescreen with another device and see what happens.

Yes really! How a screenshot is supposed to show burn in issue, if there is any? It just snaps the content of the display, whatever is on it, not a hardware issue like screen burn in, cause its happening on the OLED panel!

LOL

Try to take it to samsung service center, they can replace it. Mine had terrible burn in, vertical thick yellow lines going up and down. But I was within warranty.
BUT! What you have in the First post picture looks like a replacement screen with poorly cured glue. Had one like that on LG G3 replacement China screen
