i was wondering if there is a stylus like the s pen that comes with the note? i know there is the c pen for the s3 but the tip looks a lot bigger than the s pen. i want one with the small tip like the sPen. thanks
No body uses a stylus?

spen is different from the regular stylus. note has a special digitizer than the ones use in other smartphone to interact with it . as for alternative... probably gotta spam through ebay and see if anything rings up

To my knowledge, no. The C-Pen is thicker because it is like any stylus for an iPhone or iPad, just mimicking your finger touch.
The Note S-Pen was capacitive so it could sense pressure and do fine details. I don't expect it to work on the S3.

Hi!
I recently bought the KITVISION MONKEEGRIP tripod from Amazon for my Note 3.
I saw that it was compatible with the Note II so I though it would be with the 3 too, but when I tried it, it wasn't... The Note 3 is too big...
http://www.amazon.es/dp/B00AFSLE1G
Any recommendations?
I'de be interested if you find a solution.
This is a size qupte on itportal, crazy that less then a mm is that much of a difference.
The newer phablet is microscopically taller at 151.2mm compared to the Note 2's 151mm height, and also a shade narrower at 79.2mm (vs the Note 2's 80.5mm width).

If the difference is that small I would shave rubber grip to make it fit, unless you have bumper case or something. Shame on them, they made it fit just right, a lot of people have protective cases and with it Note 2 wouldn't fit either and this would be primary time (mounting/unmounting the phone) when most likely you could have drop it.
I'm thinking of using velcro attached to some plate that could attach to any tripod. My telescope tripod would work perfectly but it's way too big and bulky.e
has anyone come across a 2 in 1 s pen stylus. One that looks like a real pen, has a ballpoint in it as well as the S pen nib and action button.
I'm always having to swap s pen for a real one as I use the S pen a lit. Used to have a 2 in 1 stylus in my Palm Pilot days, it was a really smart one looked like a Mont Blanc and was a very useful bit of kit.
I'd be grateful if you could keep your eyes open.

If there was a ball point in s pen that will leave marks on phones screen dam.. I will never use such pen on my note 3

tell Samsung, maybe they will make one.
Bamboo made a duo stylus. I know they make a full size s pen as well for tablet use. Maybe check with them if they make dual sided pen.
Thanks folks looks like I'm going to have to go for a dedicated s pen like the 10 inch Note one.... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B007V2G59K/ref=pd_aw_sbs_2?pi=SL500_SS115
It's the lack of balance with the shipped s pen which makes it tricky to use for long periods of time.

I know the note devices use Wacom touch screen technologies, and so does the Microsoft Surface Professional series. So if you find a stylus that works on the Surface Pro it will also work on the note. I have a surface Pro and have tested this on numerous occasions. Hopefully that broadens your search a little.
Hi - I'm looking for an SPen which fits the Note 3, which includes WRITING INK. I've searched the net but can't seem to find one. I used to be able to get these replacements on my old XDA a decade ago. Is it possible to get a real ink pen that fits into the Note 3 in replacement of the stylus?
PS - I don't use the SPen features, so I really don't need the standard SPen functionality whatsoever.
[Alternatively, do the 2in1 pens for the Note 10 that are discussed in this thread, also fit comfortably and slide into the Note 3?]
Many thanks,
Rob
I recently purchased an "S-pen Holder" off of eBay for use with my Note 10.1 (n8000), and while the pen holder is very very nice, the actual
S-pen 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 pen look.
So my question is, did 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 case, 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.
Here is the link to the S-pen holder:

After a long wait till the prices came down I have upgraded to a note pro from a 10.1 2012 edition. I love it so far. I have been using Taobao for a while to buy various accessories Using Yoybuy as a shipping agent. I got my genuine samsung keyboard £30 it is the real thing. The only difference is the box and instructions is in Chinese. I started to look at spens. I found wacom bamboo stylus feel Selling for $1.64 I do have one as I am a designer and I have ordered a couple. It is worth a look for cases etc. Google translate comes in handy.
$1.64 for the stylus sounds wrong. Maybe it's a knockoff?

yes it does seem like an amazing price. I bought a couple so will keep you posted. I can always turn them into spen holders! Though I did get a bargain atomgsm.Co.uk are selling off all the samsung moschino and kirkwood offical note pro flip covers for only £11.69 I do like the black kirkwood one.
Link for kirkwood/moschino cases it is a UK company they are selling their note 3 cases and s5 cases cheap too.

The Wacom technology is patented, so it's no doubt a fake.
Still, if it works, it's probably still cheaper to just toss it in the bin when it breaks after a month or two and get a new one, you could do about 40 months for the price of the original.

There are a lot of fakes on the site mainly flip covers. But you can tell as the inner lining is always grey no matter what colour. A lot of generic spens definitely fake. Though there are originals as well.
The cheapest price I could get for an original samsung keyboard case here in the uk is $122. But got an original one from there for less than half the price Including shipping. I also got an original samsung bluetooth spen the one you can receive calls from For $24. It came out with the original note 10.1 2012. The price never really came down Works a treat with the note pro. Plus it comes with the full range of spen nibs from soft rubber to hard plastic. Which I got with my old note 10.1 2012 but sadly with my note pro just standard tips. If you are an artist or a designer the different nibs as well as calibration of the pen make a difference that's why I have a few pens.
But you are probably right about the wacom pen I am not holding my breath but it was worth the gamble.

Both, which is why I have 3 Bamboo Feels and 3 Spens for the same reason.
But I'm still miffed that my Intuos pen won't work on it. Different tech, I know; a girl can dream, right?
I've got a ton of stuff from china as well, some of it original, but for the serious accessories I prefer something with a warranty and quality certifications. The EU has a much, much higher legal quality demand than the US, let alone Asia. (You can notice the difference in the build quality of phones and tablets.)
Still, somtimes the low price is worth the shorter lifespan.

I thought intuos pen would work too but no joy either. Any other pens you could recommend? I have spen with eraser, bamboo feel, bt spen, note 3 pen 10.1 2011. Is it worth getting the spen holder or going for another bamboo feel? A girl can't have too many pens. The spen I got with my note pro the calibration was completely off the nibb sticks.......Hopefully a new nibb will sort it.
Any tips on drawing on the note or apps would be appreciated as there is always something new to discover.

What I did do was place the second rubber grip I got with the Intuos pen over the Bamboo feel. Bit of a tight fit, but now I've got a Bamboo pen with a very comfortable grip! (It doesn't look very pretty, but oh well.)
Haven't found a solution for the button yet, but it does make holding it whilst drawing much easier.
Haha, yea, I had to recalibrate all but one of the Bamboo pens. Nearly lost the button for the original Spen to the carpet in the process!
I've never tried the Spen holder, truth be told.
Here's a couple of apps to give a try :
Artflow: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bytestorm.artflow
Infinite Painter: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brakefield.painter
Can't forget our best friend's baby brother: Photoshop Touch! Tablet: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.adobe.pstouch Phone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.adobe.pstouchphone (I sideloaded the tablet variant onto my Note 3 because I prefer landscape for Photoshop.)
For writing, lettering and sketching in one I love Papyrus. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.steadfastinnovation.android.projectpapyrus It has an option to write with the pen and erase with your finger for Spen devices.
INKredile is a Vector writing/sketching app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.viettran.INKredible&hl=en I use this for creating handwriting fonts, exporting it as a transparent png, loading it in Illustrator, image trace > 254 threshold + Ignore Whites > Expand > tweak > Place in Fontlab
And then there's Snapseed. Not quite a 'specially made for the Spen' app, but the Spen makes it that much more accurate! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.niksoftware.snapseed&hl=en (Made by NIK Software, the company behind NIKefex, who were bought by Google).

Thank you so much for your help I have got most of the programmes but inkcredible was just what I was after. I will try the intros rubber grip thanks for the tip I am after function rather than pretty. I do love the extra screen on this tablet. I love the note series.
Have you tried watercolour pencil I use it from time to time it gives you some really lovely drawing water blending effects.

Yea, Inkredible is a genius litle app. If you export as PDF, it exports as a Vector PDF. Real timesaver!
The only thing I miss is all my brushes in Photoshop.
Oh, fun! Didn't have that one yet! :good:
Have you tried Snapseed since it updated to version 2.0? That app is the main reason I'm buying this tablet and getting rid of my new laptop.

Yea, it's good. Still doesn't reach the level of its parent ColorEFEX (Which requires a full version of PHotoshop CS4 or higher), but it's a good dressed-down version.
