I think not.

On the Note-series Samsung are using Wacom technology - both on the screen and on the pen.

Your normal touchscreen is capacitive. And so are the Notes.

BUT they also add a inductive screen layer - that's what triggering the pen.

By charging a magnetic field above the screen - which charges the pen and makes it function, you can decide if you want both capacitive and inductive touch - or just one input signal.

I have the Note 2 and it's really good and some differences between the Note pen and a standard stylus is that the Note pen is pressure-sensitive - up to 1024 zones of pressure. It also registers HOW you're holding the pen, laying it down, using it straight down, and more.

Not forgetting Airview - you can hover the pen over objects and it will function as you would do with your mouse on your computer - popup menus are working on everyday websites, you can preview movie scenes in the timeline, and so on.

A normal stylus is just a replacement for your finger.
[Nexus 10 General] mike240se:
being someone who has no interest in the spen, my major yearning for the note 10.1 is the multiview capability. I am a big youtube watcher and i constantly find my self wanting to use gtalk or the web browser while watching a video on my current tablet. With the huge resolution of the nexus 10, it seems the like the PERFECT tablet for that feature. That being said, has anyone worked on trying to get the multiview capability ported to other devices? I mean I am sure its 100% software implementation, so it seems possible to add it to a custom ROM. Just wondering if there has been any work or even if anyone has looked into this?

[Nexus 10 General] Jackietreehorn:
This. A thousand times this. I have zero issues with my N10, but I'm mildly envious of the Note 10.1 for multiview. I'm guessing the next Note with a higher res screen will be the "best of both worlds", but alas, I'm not willing to wait. Hoping Google pilfers this feature and builds it into Key Lime Pie. :D
[Nexus 10 General] GETCASHMONEY:
You would be surprised how much you use the spen. I am converted.
[Nexus 10 General] BarryH_GEG:
Once you start using it you're pretty much hooked. I replaced a Teg3 One X I was happy with for a Note II so I could get S-Pen on my phone and share S-Note's between my devices. The Note 10.1 got ****ty reviews because very few reviewers "got it" or spent any time trying to. Of all the devices I've owned the two Notes are the most complicated to figure out if you intend to fully use all their features. I was still finding things weeks after I got the 10.1. And if those things don't matter people should by the N10 because it's cheaper, easier, and a better pure consumption device.
[Nexus 10 General] asdfuogh:
The Note 10.1 is by far the better tablet if you're looking to use a stylus at all. I've only had the TF101 and the GN10.1, but the difference between the a capacitive stylus (like the adonit jot) and the spen is ridiculously large. You'll kick yourself for thinking that the capacitive stylii you see on the market are anywhere near as useful as the wacom stylii (which of course, require a wacom interface built within the tablet).

On the other hand, if you care only about browsing videos, pictures, and surfing the web, there's no point in paying more for a stylus you won't use.

Bottom line is that you shouldn't listen to the idiot reviewers who didn't use the Note 10.1 as its intended audience. They were all just looking for iPad-esque tablets and not looking at what the Note 10.1 really is.
[Nexus 10 General] mi7chy:
Bought a Nexus 10 to complement my Note 10.1 but ended up returning the Nexus 10. Once you experience the productivity and creativity of the Wacom pen it's hard going back to a consumption only device plus what turned me off about the Nexus 10 is the inconsistent screen quality, the 2nd unit they shipped me as replacement for the wrong flash size was off-white slightly yellow, blacks were more greyish than on Note 10.1, less vibrant colors, light bleed, random lockups, no SD card slot, slightly worse speaker quality, worse battery life (~5-6 hrs vs ~8 hrs on Note 10.1), HDMI output lag, design not as nice, etc. Much happier getting a Note II in place of the Nexus 10. Daddy Note 10.1 and baby Note II are the best combination.
[Nexus 10 General] 404 ERROR:
Interesting, your first unit had an SD card slot... :D

Anyway, hope you're happy with your Note 10.1!
[Nexus 10 General] TheEmpyre:
Can someone comment on the ability to take notes on the Nexus 10 with the capacitive stylus? I read you all discussing the palm block etc. Is that supported in applications or is that a feature of a the tablet touch screen. I was really hoping to take notes on top of PDF files that I use for class but after reading some of this I am wondering if I'll be able to at all.
[Nexus 10 General] 404 ERROR:
This kind of task is more fit for the Note 10.1.

I guess it can be both a feature of the touch screen and the app. Really depends. I'm 100% certain someone can code palm rejection into an app, but it'll be difficult. But I don't think there are any apps that support in-app palm rejection. The capacitive stylus is slow compared to the S-pen. Again, as many have said before, the Nexus 10 is a media consumption supplement. The Note 10.1 is a much better deal if you want to do work.
[Nexus 10 General] BarryH_GEG:
The inductive display is what allows for palm rejection because it can sense the difference between an electro-mechanical signal from the pen vs. physical contact on the screen. That's also why there's 1024 levels of sensitivity. On a capacitive display contact with the screen is either present or not.
[Nexus 10 General] 404 ERROR:
Not sure if that was for my post, but I'm aware of what an inductive display can do. I just strongly believe that with smart coding, it can be done on a capacitive display, but it'd be very difficult.
[Nexus 10 General] Olaeli:
What?

That you could emulate Wacom technology on a capacitive screen?

The big problem with a stylus on a regular tablet is that you cant rest your hand on the screen without the screen registering it.

Like you would with a pen and paper.

I have the Note 2 bit I'm not sure I would give up the Nexus for the Note 10.1.

I feel it's enough with the Note 2 for my studies.
[Nexus 10 General] mi7chy:
Huh? Where did I say Nexus 10 has a SD card slot? I ordered a 32GB but the 1st unit they shipped me was a 16GB.
[Nexus 10 General] BarryH_GEG:
If it could be done it would have been done already. The 100MM iPad users would go nuts for this functionality and there's already quite a market for drawing apps and tools for it. I'm not debating you but I wouldn't want someone to purchase a N10 thinking at some point in the future they'll be able to use it for inking as well as they could any tablet with a Wacom digitizer. Inductive displays are expensive and Wacom's technology has to be licensed. It there were away around that with a capacitive display and s/w the person finding it would be very wealthy.
[Nexus 10 General] TheEmpyre:
Thanks for all the replies about note taking on a capacitive display. The thing is so many of my classmates take notes on their iPads full time and I'm wondering if the app they are using is coded very well to not register their palm touches or if they are altering their writing style --- Hopefully I can adapt because I really don't want to sacrifice my Nexus 10 for what I think is inferior hardware but has 1 cool feature, the S-pen
[Nexus 10 General] BarryH_GEG:
Absolutely. And it costs less too. Performance is about the same on both because the 720P display on the Note is less taxing and offsets the additional power that's in Exynos 5. Same thing for battery life. For someone that's primarily looking for consumption the Note's probably not a great choice. The resolution on the N10 is far better for text and the there's a lot of complexity in the Note to support its additional features which would just get in the way for someone that doesn't intend to use them.
[Nexus 10 General] blackhand1001:
I will agree that moving the soft keys to the middle was a very stupid decision. Also only shipping chrome was another mistake the tock browser is much faster and smoother at the moment. I don't care about flash but I do care about speed and responsiveness and chrome is far behind in that department.
[Nexus 10 General] rookiegenius:
the nexus is great. But I returned it because I got frustrated with apps not displaying and running well on the nexus due to the new high resolution screen. Also the media playback capability . Apparently the biggest problem of the Note is its resolution. surfing the web on the nexus is far superior.

Also the Note is at least 50$ more so there's no point discussing here lol. I've used both and not really satisfied with either. So I will keep on waiting .
[Nexus 10 General] Olaeli:
Then I understand what you mean - I've seen some drawing software with palm rejection areas, but it is still very annoying to be locked with your hand to certain areas when you're drawing, for an example.

I'm not drawing as much now as I did when I was younger, but my palm always used to be black from the graphite or inc in the pen. :P

I agree, an i5 or i7 processor is far more powerful, but also far more powerhungry.

That's the equation which is bound by physical laws.

The more you want to do, the more power you will need.

The development on the SoC-front is huge, driven by us consumers willing to buy the newest technology.

Different systems have their cons and pros, and that's good.

That gives us the ability to choose, if you look at the PC market, you got more or less two manufacturers to choose from. AMD or Intel for processor, and Nvidia and AMD for graphics.

There might be others that I haven't thought of, but still, in the end these few are the ones who share the market between them.

That is not good, that hinders the development.

So, back to topic, it's great to have the ability to choose between a "production"-tablet as the Note 10.1, or a more media-directed tablet as the Nexus 10. And there are loads of manufacturers, both big and small, who compete for us customers.

I haven't mentioned Apple yet, but they play as a big part in this as anyone else.

My personal thought on why choosing the Nexus 10, is that it's my first tablet, and I just wanted that great screen, and sound (yeah, strange but so it is) so I did want to get a good product, but at a lower price.

A Nexus 7 would more or less be rivaling my Note 2 (except for the call-ability) and not to forget, the Note 2 has a 3100mAh battery, and the Nexus 7 has a 4100mAh battery.
[Nexus 10 General] 404 ERROR:
Sound quality is another one of the reasons I bought the N10. The Note 10.1 and Nexus 10 both feature the same DAC, Woflson WM1811. Wolfson makes some pretty amazing DACs. I had one in my Cowon S9 which is still amazing to this day, but its about 4 years old now and definitely needed to be replaced.

Also, the fact that supercurio is working on voodoo sound on the N10 was another selling point.
[Nexus 10 General] Olaeli:
Samsung started with Wolfson in SGS 1, but used a Yamaha-DAC in SGS 2, and when I recently got my Note 2 I realized they had switched to Wolfson again.

I would like to think that Samsung listened to their customers.
[Nexus 10 General] jjdevega:
The Note 10.1 was great but I returned it. The only thing besides the screen that I was bummed out about the Note10.1 was the slow charging. Even while plugged in, playing games will cause the charging to stall and actually drain. Unfortunately for the Note 10.1 it does not have an option like the Pogo Pin charger that will be released for the N10 to alleviate this issue. So if your a gamer/movie buff or arent to keen to slow charing especially while plugged in and in use, the Note 10.1 may not be the answer. N10 answers almost all my needs.
[Nexus 10 General] Moricon:
I am trying to decide now. I love everything about the Note and like the N10 as well. Only had the N10 a few hours so still doing comparisons

Nice info and thoughts in this thread. Thank you.
[Nexus 10 General] transceiver:
I made the app Writepad Stylus to do precisely that, on the Asus Transformer 101. Palm rejection on a capacitive screen, without weird zoning boxes. It worked pretty well and I made a lot of money from it. But there are a ton of issues with that algorithm that I ran into when I got the Asus Transformer Prime, which ultimately made me give up on the app:

Bad capacitive screen sensitivity. The Transformer Prime and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 both have awful sensitivity settings, so the writing comes out looking like an 8 year old's scribble. It doesn't register all the input points. It doesn't start recording points until AFTER you move the stylus a certain distance. Ugh. There's an app that sorta fixes that called TouchscreenTune, but it requires root, and the settings for that are really hard to calibrate. Even after messing with that, it's still not as good as on the Xoom or the original Transformer.

Touch screen can't handle straight lines. If you try to draw a straight line horizontally or vertically, it comes out straight. If you try to draw a diagonal line, it comes out wiggly. This is also particular to certain tablet screens. Who knows whether a particular tablet will have good touch screen or crappy one? No reviewer tests for that kind of thing. You have to go to the store to try it out.

Your hand will accidentally hit the notification or navigation buttons, taking focus away from the app, or accidentally going back to the homescreen. As far as I know, this can happen even with the S-pen. Asus has a "lock navigation bar" feature on their tablets, which is nice. There's no way to hide the navigation bar or disable it while something is going on in app (unless you root your tablet).

Anyway, if someone wants to test these things on the Nexus 10 and report back, I'd be grateful since I can't find these in stores yet. Just try to write as small as you can with a capacitive stylus, and try to slowly draw straight diagonal lines.
[Nexus 10 General] 404 ERROR:
Is it possible to make a lite version that just allows us to test that? Sorry if that sounded ridiculously cheap for $1. >_>
[Nexus 10 General] BarryH_GEG:
I had two OG G-Tab 10.1's; an early Wi-Fi and a later 3G. They changed display types somewhere in the middle. The early display is exactly as you described. It was just painful. The later one was nothing more than less painful; but still painful. It's hard to believe it was released only fifteen months ago (June, 2011). Now we have Wacom digitizers or 2560x1600 displays at the same price or lower.

Hi Guys. This is my first post in the forum. I've got a samsung galaxy note 2 but when ever I run a benchmark test I'm getting low scores. For some reason the HTC One X is beating my note 2.

Does this mean I could have a defective device?

Why is there a low score?

If someone could help me out that would be great, Or you can email me on my email address which is : keeb@live.co.uk, I don't really know how the forum works.
