I have been looking at getting a 10.1 or samsung ativ windows 8 for work purposes. I have clients who have to sign multiple page pdf files and I know that you can use ez pdf to annotate. I saw this video of the ativ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fepPN7WcU8&feature=youtube_gdata_player. Most of my client are older individuals and the reader for windows 8 is just what I am looking for. I like the fact that you dont have to click a pencil icon to write and it doesnt read palm prints, it only recognizes the pen. I also like the fact you can just flick to the next page that would need signed. I am a huge android fan, have the note 2, love it and would rather stick to android os. Does the note 10.1 have an option that works as easy?

In fact i don't see a problem selecting the pencil button in EZ as long as it is one of various powerful annotating tools like highlighting, shapes, etc. My information this kind of use is typically what the Galaxy Note has been developed for! You can also find & check various annotating apps in the android market for your use. Ex. MANTANO Reader, SignNow, etc. You can also import your PDFs to LectuteNotes which is a very powerful application for note taking.
One question please, does this Pen/Stylus comes with the Ativ on board or is it a separate piece of accessories? If so, i think the Note 10.1 wins as the use of the SPen will have deeper integration to more tablet uses.
Good Luck!

S pen is part of this talker also. It's competitor for android SGN10.1 of course
Thanks for the replys. I am really familiar with ez pdf as I use it on my note 2 and it works fantastic. The thing I liked about the video with reader on the ativ was that I didn't have to click on the pen. Like I said most of my clients are seniors and they usually sign multiple documents. Is there any other editing apps that could be used and only registered the pen and handwriting recognition instead of fingers or palms.

Hi,
I need something for taking notes during meetings and have tried Handrite and LectureNotes, both don't seem very receptive to my stylus (adonit pro) and have limited functionality.
Was looking for something similiar to the Noteshelf for the iPad (http://www.fluidtouch.biz/noteshelf/)
Anyone found something decent for Android?
Anyone?

I use Write and I found nearly perfect and it's free! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.styluslabs.write
@adamj123: Consider to try another stylus, one with a soft tip, some devices seem not to work too well with stylus with a hard tip. I received several reports concerning insufficient response when using LectureNotes with a stylus with a hard tip (in particular when using the `input zone´, as recommend for capacitive stylus, both hard and soft tip), and in all cases this problem disappeared with a stylus with a soft tip.
Tried many of handwriting apps on my Note 1 and Note 10.1.
LectureNotes so far the best. Keyboard handwriting app best of the best is My Stylus Beta.
But, if some of you take paper notes like I do, and want to get them in LNotes here it is: Get Whitelines Link app from the PlayStore, go to their site and download pdf with their paper template, or buy the notebooks.
Then, you write on the paper you printed, scan it with their app and share it to Lecture Notes.
One caveat: Before you click share, open the LNotes notebook you want to import your writing to, make sure you close it while on the page where you want the imported Whitelines page to be inserted. For some reason, when sharing a picture to LNotes, when you pick a notebook, it does not let you select target page other than the last page you where on when the notebook was closed.
One of the main reasons for getting this tablet for most would be to make use of the s pen.
This is a short review of the note apps that make use of both handwritten and typed notes.
1. Samsung apps - snote and smemo .. really good apps and lots of editing options... Its default and I am sure every one knows about it
2. I have both lecture notes ( paid) and freenote( donate version ) .
Both are good but I like freenote more as it offers more editing options and easy to make quick notes.
Both devs are very responsive to requests..
3. If you use evernote, it has an association with skitch. Works well but very limited editing options...
4. Onenote - Best note application ever.. Nothing can beat it but in android it not well implemented yet...
In android i use onenote from microsoft and mobilenoter . Both these onenote applications needs more updates.
Onenote from Microsoft app - you will a internet connection all the time to get it working smooth... Offline access is kind of limited. No handwritten notes.
Mobilenoter is expensive but give more options to editing and viewing notes. It was terrible with handwritten notes. With the recent mobilenoter updates ( in the past few weeks) it looks much more promising. Again editing options of individual notes are very limited.
(If you ask me one app that i want in my tablet, it would be a fully working version of onenote)
Unfortunately except for evernote none of them provide a desktop syc for the handwritten notes.. If there was an app that would do this ,
There are plenty of apps out there, like phat note and so on....
please tell us more about what you use and your experience..

Is it possible to take a whole page of notes using handwriting on the Note 10.1 and then convert to text?
May be a dumb question but I'm thinking if I take lots of notes at a meeting then I would like to be able to convert them to a document.

I am exactly in the same boat. In a meeting last week I took 13 pages of notes using S-Note. I can export them to PDF but thats about it. Mobilenoter seems to be the best thing to bet on. But the reviews seem to be very negative. I don't have a problem maintaining a live account with only onenote 2010 notebooks, so if they fix their handwriting issues I'll be a customer!

If you. want to send the notes as text from S-note, use the share via option as opposed to export,however you will not be able to send drawings.
If you want to write in your own handwriting, there is an app called 7notes on Google play that will let you take notes and convert them later into text. The app has really good handwriting recognition too if you want the notes converted on the fly.
Look for Supernote ..its made by Asus and is similar to freenote in that you can handwrite anywhere and moves it to the top. Link...... http://www.everbot.com/files/Asus_Supernote_v_1.4.apk
I also use 7notes. My HW is horrific and it does a great job of converting it. You can use it anywhere, in pretty much any app that uses a keyboard.

S memo has been replaced with S Note, you can bring up the mini app version by clicking the small arrow on your status bar at the bottom to make a quick note.

Probably not exactly what you are looking for, but i use foldersync lite, with my drop box, to backup and sync my notes. I currently use lecture notes and have the folder with my notes synced every 2 hours.
Just an idea for you.
Did you do the schedule from within LN or using an external app?

Dropsync is the tool I use for autosyncing. Also LectureNotes allows export and import via .pdf, so if you can edit .pdfs you're food. Finally, Lecturenotea can export direct to Evernote.
I haven't seen it mentioned here but I like it more than Lecture Notes - Writepad Stylus works great with S Pen (and I prefer setting the pen in it to be the only input - you can do that in settings).
I quit using WS when Quill came out. I use Quill for vector and LN for all else. The LN dev rocks big dog. Working on keyboard and jpg/png image for background. Really pleased.

+1 on Freenote. I've tried LectureNotes, Quill, AntiPaper, PhatPad, and some others. Freenote offers a lot more flexibility in including ink, typed text, pics, paint, links, tags, "To Do" lists, ink calendar tracking, etc. It is the closest app to OneNote I've found on Android. I think its biggest liabilities are that the GUI is not "sexy" -- it looks clunky-- and that the range of options and tools make it confusing to figure out. Steep learning curve. But if you want to switch instantly between ink/text/images/paint, etc., I don't think it has any competition.
Best Freenote feature: The writing panel for inking. It lets me handwrite in large exaggerated strokes at the bottom of the page, which it inserts as scaled smaller ink in a straight line elsewhere on the page, and which it is smart enough to auto-wrap to the next line at the page margin. 7Notes/Mazec offers a similar feature, but I find it to be a bit more clunky since I have to hit "enter" at the end of each line before it inserts.

I too consider this to be the 'holy grail' of app features, but it is sorely lacking. I found a work-around that lets me ink on my GNote in a Word doc via Polaris, and also ink the same doc on my tablet PC via Dropbox. But to be honest, the "inking" experience I show via Polaris is so limited (very few features beyond changing ink thickness) that I have largely stuck with Freenote.

Trans device inking is a big thing and unfortunately none of the apps support it well..
However, mobilenoter which was a terrible app before, has changed a lot especially with the most recent update.
I brought this app a long time ago and had many issues.
After the most recent update I tried it again and works great..
This is what I do
1. i have folder in my sd card synced with the onenote folder in pc
2. the onenote folder in pc is synced with skydrive
3. i edit and make notes in my android using mobile noter.
4. Now all changes are synced with my pc when i get home
Limitations of mobilenoter now are
1. Mobilenoter syncing option to cloud is still not great... Hence the work around i mentioned above
2. editing options are very limited
Workaround now is to make new notes in freenote and export to mobile noter
The benefit of cloud sync is that I can open the onenotes in another pc ( on a web browser) at work and do changes.
Thanks for the suggestions. I also dream of a robust OneNote app available on Android... Until then, can I clarify a few of your tips?

Do you export them as PDF, or is mobile noter listed as a menu option for "sharing," or another method?
Just a quick question I'm hoping one of you guys can help me with.
I've seen a lot of videos of using the Note to create documents using the S-Pen, which all look great. However I'm wondering how well it works with annotating pre-made power point and PDF documents (basically for University lecture notes). Does anyone have any experience with this, any videos around?
Can you just open any office package and annotate through it, or are there ones specifically designed to work with the S-Pen?
Thanks all!

You can use dedicated apps for Best results on pda documents I.e. ezpdf, Repligo or even Adobe PDF reader all available in google Play. Not sure about Powerpoints unlessyou convert them to PDF's.
How well do those apps work with the S-Pen though? Do you get all the normal drawing/handwriting features you can get in S-Note?

They work really well,you can annotate in freehand or use the handwriting panel of the note which will convert your handwritinginto text on the fly. They all work really nicely with the S-pen.

One last question: Lets say I've got a PDF document that's got 4 powerpoint-style slides on it, is it possible to zoom in and annotate them so that the annotated text comes out the same sort of size that it would if you were writing on A4 paper?
Hopefully that makes sense!

Yes, if my memory serves me correct, EZPDF allows You to change the font size of the text so that you can make it a similar size.

Does the attached tell you what you need to know? The handwritten "annotate"s in the left margin were added to this .pdf file using the iAnnotate app,, a Samsung recommended app. I've generally used EZPDF, but am trialing iAnnotate given Samsung's recommendation. So far so good.
The .pdf file, by the way, was created from the Polaris Office Suite ppt app and is one page from their ppt guide, which shows you can do the same in ppt.

I've purchased a Note 10.1 recently but haven't actually opened the box. I first need to know whether the Note is capable of opening 1000 page PDFs with Repligo/iAnnotate/EzPDF etc and annotating them without lag, or is this far too much to ask from the Note? Would an Atom tablet be more capable of this? I wish to use the tablet for reading while on public transport and simply highlighting and writing quick notes in the PDF, and then when I get home, reading through the edited document and making my actual notes in OneNote. I've watched videos of other people annotating documents on other tablets, but I'd like to be certain with the tablet and whether it can handle such large files.
ALSO: Is it possible to open the OneNote web (not mobile) application via an android browser (accessed via SkyDrive). I merely want to view my notes through the web app, but not edit them.
Thanks.

Congrats on the new purchase.
Essentially all android tablets are the same from a sofware stand point.
Yes you can easily edit pdf's that are huge that come into many 1000 pages. I use ezpdf now as it seem to offer what i need. But as you said you have to test out yourself and see what suits you the best.
You cannot open onenote in android browser. All you can do is see the files. I tried the default, chrome and dolphin browsers and none of them seem to open one note files.
It might just be easier to use the android app

there is an app called mobilenoter in the market. Worth a shot for taking notes.
The editing options are very limited but may be good enough for basic note taking.
Two things ...
1st. For your Purpose Mantano Reader Is Best !!! Am using it since a long period of time.
2nd. OneNote is available in Playstore.

I use my note 10.1 religiously at work. Meeting notes, brainstorming, workflow management and the usual email, Calender stuff. I've still not found the "holy grail" app(s) but here is a sampler of my "note-taking" apps :
Evernote : I dump all sorts of reference materials for easy searching and lookup. Including meeting notes, key reports. Including output from all of the following.
Pdf annotation (Pdfmax, ezpdf, repligo) : use these a lot for reviewing/taking notes on meeting packs.
Free handwritten Notepad replacement (papyrus, lecture notes) : if I want to take more free form notes.
Outliner (workflowy Web app) : recently been testing this out and am loving the simplicity, helps keep focus on the key concepts, structure
Handwriting keyboard (mazec2, stock) : can use with any input area requiring keyboard entry. Not perfect but love the flexibility.
Sounds like a list of all the "in" apps, but I need a bit of flexibility /optionality as some days I'm just not feeling the handwriting mood.
my biggest issue, we have a bunch of "great components" but it lacks what I'd call full work suite integration. I would love for an aggregated solution that has all of the above options/ components in one integrated app (yes maybe I'm being unrealistic but I can dream) :
1) flexible notetaking app (choice between free form, structured or allow typing) that allows for timestamp, tagging directly into action items/tasks lists, by "paragraph". Something that allows you to take notes, circle a paragraph to be tagged and databased directly to 2) evernote type reference repository for these notes as well as additional reference material. Again leveraging the same tagging methodology (evolving. E.g. GTD) 3) all this wrapped into a very integrated solution (including email, contact, Calender, task manager for fully integrated workflow management)
I'm trying to achieve this now with multiple apps but getting integration between all of these components is a bit clunky... Hope that helps?

(OP) if you litteraly just bought the 10.1 I would head right back to the store to return and wait till next week cause the note 10.1 (2014) comes out. Which is overall way better in every way than 10.1. Don't get me wrong I have the 10.1 but ill def be upgrading next week. Or as long as it in return period just return and get new same day should be same price if not $50 more.
Sorry don't have specific app names. But I'm sure what you want is out there. I would just search for key word on play store. And make sure to read description and everyone's comments not just first 3.
If I come across anything interesting ill def reply back here. But look up the 2014 note 10.1 if you haven't heard of it. Way better for work too!
Sadly, I would say get a Surface Pro 2 with MS Office. As someone who used tablet pc's for many years, and someone who loves my Galaxy Note, I am of the opinion that nothing in the Android system can compete with Office and OneNote on a tablet PC. I persoanlly use LectureNotes for all my handwritten meeting notes. I export my LectureNotes to PDF and Dropsync that folder to my Dropbox. That is the best I can do to have acess to my notes on my computer, but that does not give handwriting recognition like you are looking for. Using SNote for the handwriting recognition does not offer an easy option sync with evernote, nor could I get a clean PDF export to work. That might be solvable, but I have not looked into it too much because I prefer LectureNotes to SNote. For the others who posted that they were interested, I also have not been able to find anyhing that allows integration of calendar and tasks like MS Office when using OneNote.
Just my opinion. Since no one could supply you with an acceptable answer.

I use my 10.1 almost exclusively for notes and pdf annotations at work.
For handwritten notes, I use the native S-Note app and export to pdf on google drive.
I have also used Write, which has a windows viewer. Documents are all SVG and HTML, so they export directly.
pdf annotations seem to work well in Foxit pdf (free), although Google is advertising that QuickOffice will do the same.
Dear folks looking for above , 'MyScript stylus beta' is out and for me personally it's a massive improvement over other alternatives... My handwriting is horrible but this is snappy, accurate and featured keyboard.
Doesn't hurt to try , check out Google + community for feedback.

I just got a note 10.1 and I am trying to figure out the best work flow to make it most efficient for me. I want to be able to take meeting notes etc using the handwriting to text feature. How is the best way to sync these to my work laptop and use/publish in MS Word? I would love to hear how some of you guys use your note for work. Thanks.

I have found Fiinote to be a good note taking app with a desktop and a web interface as well as several export options.
I use text input, but it has handwriting recognition as well (which I have not used much). It is a great Evernote replacement as far I am concerned.
I have used Zappier to get my notes out of Evernote and export them into fiinote relatively easily.
