Right, let me pay $22 for a case that makes my S4 look like an iPhone 5 offering me none of the protection I need but making it look like the POS iPhone I never wanted. Let me get back to you on that.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] baoweezie:
yes it does look sort of like a iphone but its still a nice case, besides hasnt this case been posted in many of the case threads we have here? its just the generic sliding aluminum bumper, if you guys want answers on how it fits just look in those threads, this is a pointless thread i have the neo hybrid and i think that makes my phone look iphoneish but every thread i see people praise that case even though it isnt even that good of a case, i think we should keep the fanboyism at a minimum cause i came here trying to read about the product, it would be nice if i didnt have to skim through pages of arguments

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] JokeZony0u:
Has anyone used the S-Pen w/ eraser with the Note 8? What are your experiences w/ it? If no one has...I guess I don't mind being the first to try it out.

If someone out there has, please provide a link to where you got it? I read somewhere on amazon that the one amazon is selling just dies on the Note 8 and becomes dysfunctional.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] h20rat:
Yes, the s-pen that is specced for the note 10.1 which is the 8pi width does work, and the eraser works too.

If you use 8pi in your search it should come up more easily in searches. Ignore that it says for 10.1 only...it works.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] Polarfuchs:
We can get the pen in the local electronic store Mediamarkt.

Or from some web shops http://geizhals.de/samsung-et-s200-stylus-a800120.html

The only web shop that delivers outside the EU is this one:

This works fine, especially liking the rubberized nib to give a bit of friction when drawing. I used it with painting with Adobe Touch:

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] JokeZony0u:
WOW that looks amazing. Can you link me to the one you bought?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] TheNeighbor101:
Sorry, bought it from an electronics shop called Digital Walker in Metro Manila.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] hertsjoatmon:
I cant see the picture as im at work. will check it out tonight at home...

I've heard it both ways now then. A few people saying there is an offset which they have corrected for in software. Is this what you had done? Are you saying that there was no offset at all? Or was there an offset but it didnt effect your painting style as you got used to it?

There is an offset on my girlfriend original Note which I could get used to until i changed the orientation of the screen. Then it would completely throw me again. I was hoping this wouldnt be the case on the 8.0 with the 8pi.

I can see my self switching out the nib for the rubberized one as I like a bit of feed back.

Is the nib on the pen supplied changable?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] TheNeighbor101:
There is no noticeable offset of the S Pen. I haven't experienced any difficulty. Here's my initial test with a demo unit:

http://flickr.com/photos/92800985@N06/8643965665/

Yes, the rubberized tip is supplied along with extras of the plastic one and with the pinch grab tool for the changing. Here is the retail content of the S Pen:

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] kisrita:
I'm the one who noticed an offset and corrects for it in Lecture Notes. Testing it in S Note, if you use the pen 90 degrees to the tablet, there is no offset. The offset appears to be related to how much of an angle you write with. Just received another pen, ( wacom bamboo feel) and I'm seeing the same behavior. Possibly worse in the Wacom pen, but it's too early to judge.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] angeluserrare:
I believe the offset from the Bamboo Feel is due to the sensor being located at the base of the pen rather than in the nib. A longer nib will create a larger offset. You can try and remedy this by trimming the nib slightly so it sits closer to the base (just make sure it's still long enough to remove!). The S-Pen with eraser seems to be using the same sort of nibs as the Wacom pen, but I can't say for sure.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] kisrita:
That's interesting and makes a lot of sense. The Bamboo Feel does have a slightly longer nib and does appear to have a little more of an offset. (I have set Lecture Notes to correct it by 10 pixels in both vertical and horizontal at the moment, vs the 5 pixels I have set for the 8pi in the vertical only. I need to try it over several days to confirm this setting, it may be slightly more or less in the end. )

I don't know if the materials of the two pen nibs are the same, but the nib from the 8pi is too short to use in the Wacom Bamboo Feel. I tried it and it was barely sticking out of the Bamboo pen. In fact it is so much shorter that you cannot remove it using the tools provided with either pen or a tweezer. I had to use a needle to get the nib back out. But shortening the Bamboo Feel nib to somewhere between the length of the 8pi nib and the Bamboo Feel nib would probably work. I'm not going to try that though since Lecture Notes compensates anyway.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] JokeZony0u:
So I found this on amazon- it's essentially a hollowed out "pen", where you toss the S-Pen into..though there's no eraser.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0076Z3GMG/ref=gno_cart_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

Those who do have the one w/ the eraser, can you guys give me a link on amazon or ebay to the product you bought? I found multiple ones...I'm pretty they're all the same but I remember seeing one where one of the reviewers said it wasn't compatible w/ the note 8 and I don't wanna spend $30 for a useless pen.

Thanks for everyone's replies! :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] hertsjoatmon:
arent the s pens slightly different sizes depending on what note you have? if so, make sure that this is compatible with your particular note before purchasing...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] rEVOLVE:
SInce this link you quoted uses the actual S-Pen, I'd say that's not a problem. Also I have the larger S-Pen with the eraser from Samsung and it works the same on both my Note 2 and Note 8 with no offset.

The HP stylus that was for my Elitebook tablet works but with an offset.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] hertsjoatmon:
Thats ok then. I had it in my head that the spens that were provided in the Note II, the 10.1 and the 8.0 were all slightly different in size and shape. The pen in my girlfriends Note seems smaller than the one provided with the 8.0 i tried instore. I didn't have her phone with me though to check.

Looks the offset is caused by writing / drawing angle. If you use the pen close to 90 degrees you wont notice any issues but as you increase the angle you increase the offset as the sensor isnt picking up the tip of the pen, rather further up.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] JokeZony0u:
Lol, I still can't decide if I want the stylus holder or the S-Pen w/ eraser. What do you think guys?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] JokeZony0u:
I ended up buying one, will definitely share my experiences with it when I have the time!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] k000:
Didn't se eyour post but I had bought it separately from Amazon. The feel of the S Pen that came with Note 8 was far more superior. The one at Amazon hada sharper and harsher feel... I returned that one. Looks like that was really made when Tabs came out.

I will bite if a new one comes up which could fit the Note 8 S Pen.

---------- Post added at 09:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 AM ----------

That is correct, theone quoted is a set comes with a slightly different size pen.

But has no eraser and a bit inferior feel (IMHO only) on the screen.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] drexappeal:
I love the S-pen with eraser, although the pressure sensitivity isn't as good as the one that comes with the tablet. It still works perfectly for my needs and very convenient.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] thewinelover:
That said, has anyone used the Wacom Bamboo feel stylus? I'm thinking about getting it because it's wider like the ink pens I enjoy using. http://goo.gl/QzCzA
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] kisrita:
I did. It is more comfortable to hold, but has a large offset. You can cut and shorten the nib to minimize it, but the offset is still there. According to my settings in Lecture Notes, in landscape it is about the same offset as the 8pi pen I also have. But it seems to be different in portrait. I didn't use the 8pi in portrait mode much so my memory could be bad about that.

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

Actually, I am also seeing an offset in Lecture Notes with the built in pen. I'm going to have to try my other pens with S Notes, maybe they are better than I thought!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] thewinelover:
I haven't actually gotten the Note yet ... chomping at the bit though! ;) So, if you could... tell me what the "offset" is?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] kisrita:
There is no offset using the built in pen and the S Note app the tablet comes with. It's like pen on paper. But I use another app called Lecture Notes, and other digital pen. And without adjusting the input in Lecture Notes, these other pen write slightly above/below/to the right/to the left of where the tip of the pen touches the tablet. Keep in mind that the built in pen and built in app tracks perfectly. It would be nice to recreate that with another app and a bigger pen, but so far I haven't succeeded.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] bigmout:
The "offset" is the difference between where your pen touches the screen and where the ink actually appears.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] kenhicg:
I've been reading this thread and am wondering, what is the best pen that gives the same functionality as stock including pressure sensitivity but fits the hand better?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] brecklundin:
Most accounts I've read arethat the 8pi from Samsung gives a larger pen and is ok though a bit too light weight for some.

I have a Wacom Bamboo Feel but model # CS3002 rather than the model CS300 (note only 3-digits) which seems the only model # in the US. Recently though I exchanged comments with someone who reported having recently purchased a CS3OOUK pen with no offset issue. I suspect it might have actually been model CS300UK2 (yet another model number out there). I wonder if Wacom made some adjustments to the earlier model CS300 or just went to using the CS3000 forxheir Note family compatible pen as it already worked on other models. The weight is excellent.

From another thread member "kisrita" had a pretty annoying offset issues with the CS300 model so be certain of return options AND model number if you try one.

For my uses the CS 3002 is wonderful. I have rheumatoid arthritis that significantly affects my hands making holding small items for extended periods quite painful. The CS 3002 is a lot larger than the original S-pen in the N8 and makes using it comfortable and painful.

My primary use of the stylus is handwritten text and photo editing.

I imagine christmas this year or the 1st quarter next year they prolly release Mega 2's and put quad-core's in them cause in a business aspect it makes sense but in a consumer aspect it doesn't make sense to sacrifice speed for size.

If you're dying for something that big, get yourself a Note 8.0, the international version even has a voice chip and can be used for calling. It also has the same processor and a larger more durable and pen-like S-Pen.

In my opinion however, I will not go higher than 5.5 inches for a device meant to be a phone, but hey, that's just me.

Hey guys, I was wondering, since I like to try the full version of a game by sideloading it first and playing for a while, will the data that I back up on titanium while it's sideloaded be able to be restored to the paid version from the Play Store if I purchase the full app? You know, because if I like a game or application enough, I'll purchase it for the updates and to support the developer. So If the data is backed up while its sideloaded and not paid, and I buy the application, can it be restored so that I don't have to start over and my data isn't lost?
