I just bought a galaxy tab s4 and this might be a stupid question but is it possible to stick the the s pen onto the tablet like how the iPad pro holds its pen instead of having to carry it separately.

Not that I'm aware of. I use this case which has a handy S Pen holder. But then I put the S Pen in an old eyeglass case when it is in my laptop bag.
That case is nice, but I use this one since it keeps the SPen from hanging out of the case: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QFTWDQ...olid=15LEXHYSN1K1O&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it
Thanks!
I use original Book Cover and love it
The original Book Cover does fine, although an embedded pen as in the GT-N8010 would have been nicer.

My Note 10.1 has an embedded pen, and it is awful. I haven't taken it out in years. I always carry a bamboo feel stylus instead.
S4 S Pen
I have the OEM keyboard case but had to order a new pen because it was lost by the previous owner. It did not come with the clip to attach it to the case. They have several little sleeve type things that strap on to the case on Amazon but if anyone has any idea where to get the original clip, that seems preferable. I'm obviously not buying the $100+ case I already have just for that clip. Thanks in advance.
I was wondering the same as I have switched from book cover to no cover at all (I installed matte finish protectors on front and back)
I got an idea the other day. If you could 3d print a sleek holder for the S pen that could attach on those 2 little notches on the bottom edge that are meant to hold on to the keyboard cover. Another awesome option would be a magnetic holder that could attach to the POGO pins in between those 2 notches I mentioned earlier!
A cheap alternative

I'm a little late, but did you ever find where you could get the snap on thing for the OEM keyboard?
I bought a Tab S4 a while back from the original owner but they lost the s pen and the s pen holder (and thus marked down the price so I simply ordered a replacement s pen for cheaper). So I have the replacement s pen but would also like to be able to snap it to the keyboard.
@Austinwc0402 Take a look at the poetic website. They have a transparent case with a nice s pen holder. Way nicer than the original one.

For anyone here looking to buy the near-pefect + inexpensive leather case for the G-Tablet check out the video at youtube titled "review of a kindle DX case for the Viewsonic G Tablet", which does a very good job of showcasing it.
I bought one myself and i am very/very pleased with it; It fits like a glove, looks very nice, sturdy and expensive and offers very good protection.
For $19.21 plus shipping from Amazon.com it's a best-buy for leather covers for the G Tablet and the name of the manufacturer is CaseCrown.
Same here... Excellent case for the money...
I was just going to delete my post because, dumb me, there is already a thread on this leather case under "My review of the Kindle Leather Case" by S2W, with a link for his video at youtube.
Actually i would like to thank S2W for helping me find this particular leather case and for the money he saved me !

I got the Case, but I am not too happy with it since one or two corner doesn't fit well.
just out of curiosity, which corner are you reffering to ? Is it the one over the power switch ?
The reason i'm asking is because that was the only leather tab that almost blocked the very edge of the switch on my G-Tablet, almost but not quite...
I found that this leather case fits tightly around the G-Tablet and yet not in any way that impeded me from accessing any switches and controls and, as i expected, i wish the outside leather tab that holds the front cover offered a means to secure it out of the way and from hanging in front of the screen when opened; To fix that i am thinking of attaching a small, nearly imperceptible piece of black velcro to its back and to the back of the case so that i could attach the tab to the back of the case when in use.

Yes, that's what I have observed that both my leather tabs are trying to come out when I am using my tab.
I am going to do exactly what you are describing to use black velcro to secure the back, so I don't have to worry about my kids abusing it.
It seems so simple.
A simple plastic clip with an adhesive back so I could clip my pen top edge of the screen (where the HTC logo is) when I'm not using it.
Would be SO helpful yet no one makes one. HTC are you listening? How hard would it be to include this with the tablet? Or how about with the pen you charge a fortune for?
I am going to look around. I bet something like this exists for holding a pen to a dry erase board or something and I can adapt it to the EVO.
Have an idea.
Think I'll just get a simple piece of black leather, cut a small strip, wrap it around my pen for fit and stick the ends to a small piece of double-sided foam tape. then just stick it to the top front of my View (where the HTC is) and presto, pen holder.
Or even easier, get a long thin strip of velcro and stick it along the top front of the tablet, then take a long strip of the soft fuzzy side and stick it to my pen. That should hold it pretty well while I'm typing on the tablet.
Another solution I have found is to add a cap with a clip to the back of the pen (a sharpie cap fits perfectly). Then attach this to a tether that fits into the headphone jack (many capacitive styli come with this tether). The pen dangles a bit, but what the heck, it is safely attached.

Thanks. Yes, I thought of this as well but i hate the dangling pen part. Will post photos of whatever I come up with.
Not sure if this helps you in your search. I use a clip from a 2 dollar in line air blower or a pencil tire pressure gauge … fits the pen perfect.
Here’s a pic http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5220128/clip1.jpg
I have my flyer in a Blurex case and the pen snaps onto the closing latch.
I could have gotten a case with a pen holder. The problem is that I use the note app to do some.pretty hardcore thumb typing as I'm on the phone. In order to fly the tablet has to be comfortable in my hands. This means no bulky case so I just have a simple protective case on the back and no pen holder.

Thanks for the lead on that. I want a black one and it seems they are selling every possible color except black. Oh well.
In the meantime I've come up with a simple solution that has the benefit of not adding thickness to my tablet when I put it in it's sleave or in my pocket.
It is just simply some velcro tape applied as show in the photos. Works a charm.
Thanks Kudzus for your idea of the tire gauge pen clip. It works perfect for me. Thanks!
It didn't scratch the finish off your pen like one of the other members stated?
I've read through a lot of the posts regarding cases, and have been considering the Logitech keyboard case, but honestly, the reviews aren't very good for the case as far as securing and protecting the device. I'm mainly concerned about the screen getting cracked or scratched during transit. My pro will spend most of its time on my desk but will have a lot of time in my backpack between classes. At the moment it's sharing space with my Mac Book Air in a soft briefcase-type of thing. I was hoping for something a lot like the Zagg keyboard case I have for my iPad 4. I don't care much about the keyboard since the Zagg pairs nicely with my Pro, and I plan to use the stylus 99% of the time.
Any recommendations or ideas? The Zagg for my iPad is pretty low quality as far as the keyboard is concerned but I've never worried about traveling with my iPad when it's in that case. It's a real beast!
Although I don't have one, my vote goes to the Speck Stylefolio .
1. You say you don't need a keyboard since you already have one that works.
2. Having the flip cover protects the screen while in your bag.
3. The flip cover does not have any magnets which means no interference with S-Pen functionality.
OtterBox. Period. Adds some major weight and size, but if you truly want what you're describing - in regards to the most protection any case out there can offer - then there you have it. It's also $130. Best $130 you'll spend on your nearly $700 tablet. A little steep, but your investment is just a tid-bit steeper, don't you think?
I purchased this one off a recommendation here. It protects it nicely but I will be trimming it around the buttons as it covers them slightly. And annoys the crap out of me.

I do have the Speck Stylefolio, and it provides great overall protection with minimal bulk, and securely holds the Note Pro. Quality materials, worth the cost.
=GO=
You can find iPad Case at www cell-phonecover com.
I have both the Samsung flip cover, which has no bulk and the Samsung Keyboard case. Had the logitech, and it damaged the corner by the spen by chipping the finish off the tab.
The flip cover corners have cracked and kinda fits looser. I only use it if I'm doing a site walk outside for work. Other than that, if it's on your desk most of the time, I would recommend a stand of some sort that doubles as a cover.
Soft Neoprene Sleeve Zip Case Cover 11.6 - 12.5"inch Chromebook Laptop Netbook Review
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=131282464412&alt=web - 6.99GDP
I purchased this pouch from ebay as I needed something to keep my tablet in whilst I decided what permanent solution I was going to have. I chose red and black but there is different options available.
It came in a large envelope and was not folded. Last time I purchased something this size it was folded and left a nasty fold in the middle.
The pouch is of good quality and my tablet fits in comfortably. The zips feel strong and not like these cheap ones that split open and fall apart.
The pouch is strong enough to keep it free from scratches if you're transporting it in bags and briefcases, however it probably won't protect it from drops and knocks, especially dropping from height. It most certainly won't stop the screen shattering if something was to land on it.
The outside is a soft and smooth stretchy material and the inside is made of something similar except has a slight flocking to it to protect the case of the tablet and screen.
PROS: Cheap and quick solution to keeping your pride and joy safe, good quality, decent zips and materials
CONS: Won't protect from strong knocks and bumps.
I need one of those! Does this Note Pro 12.2 fit tight in there or is it loose? Thanks!
dja2k
It's not so tight as it's hard to close and it's not loose enough for it to move about. But what I have done is take the keyboard from my keyboard case combo and fit them both in the sleeve.
I think comfortable is the word.
Ah nice! Good to see more people using a sleeve Much more practical than a flipcover.
I've got a similar one, but it's from Samsonite, and it's for 13.3 laptops. This one's the one I've got: http://www.samsonite.co.uk/colorshi...13.3inch-dark-brown-turquoise/58130-2079.html
Also fits my keyboard and a ton of other stuff, pictures are in the Accessories thread.
Those aren't sold in the US though, so this is a great option for those who want one.

I am strangely attracted to that. I read in one of your previous reviews or accessories you have a messenger bag from the same people. But at £80 ish it's a pretty large investment. Fair enough ill be protecting my tablet, but will look about for a cheaper version first! But it's definitely on my wish list.

I have something similar to this. It fits well on my tablet. I got mine on ebay for a couple of quid so if it didn't fit then I wouldn't have lost much. If you can take the plunge and write a review. I'm sure others would be interested in your opinion of it.
I have some ebay bucks coming my way on April 1st, so I am gonna hold of til then to order one of these. In the meanwhile I had gotten this one 11.6"/12.1" Black Neoprene Notebook Laptop Sleeve Bag Pouch which will have to do til then. Thanks!

I currently have the Samsung book case for the tab s7+. I am having issues with the s pen coming loose and falling off. The book case with the tab s6 had a flap on the top back of the case that would cover the s pen so it couldn't fall off. The book case for the s7+ does not have this. Does anybody know of a case for the tab s7+ that does hold the s pen in place?

I like the supcase unicorn beetle. Not a book case though
I picked up a TiMOVO case from Amazon. It has elastic that holds the s pen in place. It feels a little more bulky than the book cover case but not to bad.
Spigen recently released (in the last month or so) a new book case. I think it's superior to Samsung's own book case. Offers a trifold front cover that can be folded back and also a spot to mount the s pen in the designated area on the back of the tablet. Link below if you're interested. I picked it up and it's been great.

Why don't you put the s-pen in the spot on the spine of the book cover? Mine has never fallen out when the case is closed. Everyone complains that their book cover doesn't hold the s-pen in place during transport when they leave it on the back even though the slot on the spine is completely protected. The only problem is that it doesn't charge there.
I got mine from Best buy Canada, Tucano brand, no magnet crap to mess up my S Pen, the only one that has no Smart cover thing.
Perfect protection of the pen.
Actually, so good that I had trouble getting the pen out so I cut off a few mm to make it easier

Old thread, but I wanted to say I bought this one, too, and it is outstanding. Not much bulk, great protection, and the pen stays put.
I have both the original Keyboard Case and Book Cover Case. Been rocking the Keyboard case about 95% of the time. Its aweome, and I use my tablet for a lot of productivity, so its nice to have quick acess to keyboard. The pen is stored on the back, like it was on tab S6 Book cover.
On the book cover its stored inside the case. Also convenient.

This is the Poetic TurtleSkin. It's fat and rubbery but not sticky. I got it for less that $20. I had to get used to it but now I can say I'd buy it again. I also have the genuine book cover wich is well made but overpriced. And dealing with the pen seems like it was an afterthought.
The Spigen one runs for several inches along the back, and holds the s Pen firmly. Mine has never come loose.
