Hello
I'd like to buy a stylus for my s4. I'd prefer one with a fine tip and if it could coffee for me that would be great.
I've seen youtube vids with the c-pen working on the s4. Reviews on "big book shop website" indicate that this pen works pretty good with "high sensitivity" set in the s4 options.
I continued my search and found the BHM5100 for the note2 with fancy bluetooth headset function. I realy like it but haven't found anything if it works on the s4. I'd be sattisfied if the headset and the stylus/pointing works. I don't need any special-note-exclusive functions.
I anyone of you could help or has some advice please share it

try this. Incipio Inscribe DUAL Stylus & Pen for Samsung Galaxy S4 have a finer tip than most stylus on the market. You can get it from Amazon
I think that the c pen also works nicely...

It does! Works fine with the s4!
I think i'll buy a c-pen.
I tested the default note2 stylus and it didn't work. So i guess the fancy bouetooth headset pen i mentioned in the opening post isn't going to work either. Galaxy note pens have a small white plastic tip that doesn't work on s4 displays.
Thanks for your participation and advice.

it's because the Galaxy note has a wacom display the s4 doesn't. the pen only works on wacom display

C-Pen
I realize this is and old thread but...
From what I am reading it sounds like the C-Pen for the S3 works on the S4, based on that I found a link for a C-Pen really cheap.
For the price ($5.59) I ordered one, we'll see how a\it goes and will report back.

I've been using the Targus Slim Stylus and even though it's not a fine tip I find it worke really nicely, so I'm sure the others would.

I haven't tried one of the finer tipped ones but the fat ones work very good. I would just like to have one that is a bit easier for doing fine stuff like image editing and drawing.
From what I've read the C-Pen supposedly works well on the S4, that's why I decided to order one.
My C-Pen arrived today, needless to say it does not work very well on the S4.
It seems to work fine for hand writing and freehand drawing but for other things not so good.
For example the soft keys at the bottom of the screen does not recognize the pen at all.
When tapping on the screen you have to tap fairly hard or it doesn't recognize the pen.
I also tried increasing the touch sensitivity but it doesn't seem to make any difference.
Again, these are my observations. It may work for you but my bet is that you won't be happy with it.

I bought one of these and... well, it's not really that great. It's nice having a fine tip and all, but the screen doesn't really respond very well at all to the tip. I have increased the sensitivity of the display but I still have to use a good bit of pressure for it to respond. I would say it's because it's going through two screen protectors (I have a Zagg invisible shield that I never removed and a LifeProof case) but my mom has a $2 stylus from Walgreens that works flawlessly.
Hey guys, i stay in india and would like to purchase the stylus from flipkart. As i was browsing i came upon two of them.
Check out this MobileStyli on Flipkart! - http://www.flipkart.com/item/STSDRRFSESWAHD4F
Check out this MobileAccessoryCombo on Flipkart! - http://www.flipkart.com/item/MACDTYVFB4FMSHEP
The firsr one is only the stylus for rs.300 and the second one is a package for s4 which includes the stylus, case and the aux cable for rs.450
I dont know if the second one, although its reduced from rs.1100 to rs.480 and getting a good package is made of good quality.
Which one do you suggest?

Does anybody have it yet? Could you please leave your comments and first impressions here if you do?...
The pen works very well on the note 10.1. It feels more natural than the s pen. I actually Bluetooth it to my galaxy note 5.3. Sound quality is excellent and the people I talk to can hear me very clearly. All in all a great device. Can you live without it? Absolutely, but it's fun to have.
Thanks for the feedback.
1. Does this pen allow pairing with more than one device at the same time?
2. Does it house the 10.1 stylus inside, like the holder for the original N7000 Note did?

No. As far as I can see it only pairs with 1 device. Can't read Chinese instructions though. It doesn't house the stylus. It's a separate stylus. Comes with its own bag of plastic nibs.
Anyone else got this? Could you please leave your feedback? Thanks.
I've ordered it off of ebay, but not received yet. am anxious to read others reviews as well.
The BT s-pen has the same function as the normal s-pen. And it is a bluetooth headset with vibrition for incomming calls. When you press the phone button S-voice opens. Say "call Annie" and Annie will be called. Great !

Got mine off Ebay from Korea directly... No english instructions but then its not too hard to work out...
Charge until led turns blue, start bluetooth on Phone/Tablet, search bluetooth.
On pen, hold dial button for 3 - 10 seconds, tablet will pick up, Can't remember if I needed to enter pair code but "0000" usually works....

I finally got my hands one one of these yesterday - awesome. I also got English instructions with mine
1. Yes it supports two devices at the same time (Multi-Point) I have mine paired with my Note 10.1 & my Note 2
2. Yes it holds an s-pen inside - there's some instructions for re-assembling it and a picture. I don't know if it's the full s-pen inside though and I'm not going to take it apart just to find out.
It's got the proper feel of a pen and is much nicer to write with than built in one. Works great with s-voice as well and sound quality is good.
My poor s-pen always stays in it's slot now.
Also one proud owner here Got mine for about 30 usd. Really like to use it over the standard Spen. And what is more cool than talk to your pen, haha.

From this shop I doubt... in fact they don't have fixed prices and you can bargain. I have years of experience on this in China so not easy to fool. But I didn't find this pen in China and there I think no chance to bargain for such original products, at least not much. So I was suprise to find it here and be able to set a good price. I also bought the original flip cover. Or it just could be that they try to ripoff all the white faces they see

Right. Amazon and other usual suspects places have it, too. But the question is where to get a much better deal than $75-80?... without bargaining in Indonesia

Update, there's 2 on Ebay.com right now. I think only 1 is under $75 AND a US seller. When I search I only want US sellers. Hope this helps. You can set up 'saved searches' and even 'notifier' when the item matches your wish.
I haven't had a lot of hands on time with the Galaxy Note so I don't know a whole lot about it. I pretty much just want to know if it is a good tablet for school work. I was thinking about getting the Asus Infinity but I work at Best Buy and Samsung has a deal with us where we can get the Galaxy Note for $250 and I think it is a $500 tablet so that seems like a good deal to me...
Should I jump on the deal or get something else?
Wow that's awesome!! Yes yes of course! Thats a crazy steal!
The note 10.1 is absolutely great for school. Go check Samsung's full hands on video on it and the wealth of reviews on its functionalities.
Maybe i can make a short comparison between my Note 10.1 and my Original Asus Transformer TF101. I know the OG TF101 is a previous generation behind but apparently i read somewhere that some components like the I/O used in the Infinity is the same? Correct me if im wrong.
For daily use:
Keyboard- The N10.1 software keyboard is so so much more responsive!! I was very pleasantly surprised upon switching from my TF. Not sure about the Infinity.
Multitasking- You cant beat N10.1 on this. FIrstly, switching between apps is very fast. It doesnt hang or stall. My TF was a little laggier at this. The splitscreens, pop-up play and mini apps are awesome! No complains about that
Browser- Samsung stock browser is well known for being smooth and responsive. Surfing on my N10.1 is definitely a better experience!
S-Pen- Mind blowing note taking and drawing functionalities on N10.1. It honestly feels like a real pen. If you intend to use it for notes in classes, you will constantly appreciate it for how convenient it has made your life. You can easily rip out things you need from webpages and searches and plonk them into your notes. There is a plethora of features that really wowed me.
Speaker- Front facing speakers on the N10.1 really provides great audio for songs and videos.
Anyway,you should check out the thread on Note vs Infinity and the videos on youtube to better associate your actual usage with the tablet. When i first saw the hands on videos by Samsung, I knew i had to get it
the whole GALAXY to NOTE about...counting down from 10 to 1.
Jump on it! Don't think twice.
So it is that good? The Samsung Hands on video does look promising...I guess I will pick it up tomorrow then. Thanks for the insight guys.
BTW: Can you root and are there any good roms out or should I just use stock rom? I have a Galaxy S II with the AOKP Jelly Bean ROM.
Juicy tab. Seriously.
replaced my prime with the note...hands down i love it and dont miss my prime one bit.
Its bomb i just rooted and stock is plenty fast

Good to know. It's no longer trepidation, it's health. Want to be well so I don't muck things up.
Method I or 2?
It will only get better once the Jellybean OTA is released (soon) and we get all the Note II functionality.
I used 2 because i like having cwm and use triangle away. and also because method one is close to a 1gb file and was taking long compared to the 6mb method 2 file

Best Buy employee's can buy the tablet for $450 and then Samsung has a $200 mail in rebate for Best Buy employee's as well. $250 total savings.
Saw someone mention the HTC One's accessory page the other day so I decided to check it out. They have an official case that seems perfect for what i'm looking for in a smart case:
http://www.htc.com/www/accessories/htc-double-dip-flip/
I hope we get something along these lines that acts like a stand without adding too much bulk. Anyone know of any companies that do something similar to this?
Possibly. There are a lot of these already out for tabs. Maybe third parties will see this and bring it to the s4
Would love this on my s4, I hope some third party will make it for the S4.

Hello guys!
I am looking for a stylus for my tab. I already have the cheap ones that have a huge tip on them. But now that im really getting to use it more, its not very accurate.
I have found this, Samsung Galaxy C Pen and this, iKross but they say it only works on Samsung devices? But its the same technology as the stylus i have now, so i was wondering what you guys use. I would love the iKross but im not sure if it will work. Thanks guys!

Samsungs have 2 digitizers in them. One is the standard finger type capacitive touch screen, and the other is more of a wacom digitizer that works only with their SPens. An SPen will not work on another device as its a type of magnetic RF. Speaking from experience...... I have a Note 2.

Yes i know about the Note-Type touch screens. But the C-Pen is not the S Pen. They state they will only work on the Galaxy series devices, which i know use a standard Capacitive touch type display. I did go ahead and get the iKross or whatever thy are called ones and they have a 30 day money back refund policy. So if they don't work i will just do that. Im pretty sure they will though.. Hoping, anyway,
that i kross looks nice mate
Yo folks ! As S5 has just launched might be some people want to know the difference of design of two devices.. As i also wanted to know...
I have taken this article from here : http://inditechgeeks.in/samsung-galaxy-s5-vs-samsung-galaxy-s4-worth-upgrade/
hope you would live the update by me.
Design
If we talk about the design, both the devices differ much. Since this time Samsung has made a step ahead and left that old S series devices design as seen on Samsung Galaxy 2 generation, 3rd generation and 4th generation. This time Samsung has provided a rubber kind of mat finish back panel for the device. The back of Samsung Galaxy S4 possessed a glossy look but the back of Samsung Galaxy S5 comes with a rubber back with a pattern imprinted on its back. Well, coming to camera design the device has a slightly different camera for the device which is much wide this time than the previous one. However the flash light appears to be on the same place but the exception added this time to the device is of ‘heart Rate Monitor Sensor’. The sensor is attached to the flash light which completely goes with the broad camera lens. Below the camera there is Samsung’s branding. Speak port also arrives at the same place as on Samsung Galaxy S4, So no major changes in speakers part. However from all above mentioned points we can say that Samsung Galaxy S5 don’t possess a completely same back as on S4 and both the devices can be well classified in terms of back panel .Well, if now we move to the front we will see a 5.1 inch HD display which is 0.1 inch bigger than the previous version of the series. However if we put both devices aside each other was can clearly see that the design of Samsung Galaxy S5 is little bit identical to the Note series devices which makes the viewer distinguish the device at once. Well, the ear piece appears to be the usual one on the new 5th generation device. This time Samsung has managed to hide the sensors but not front camera. The Samsung’s branding appears on the top. If we move down to the front bottom we will find the newly added Home screen button with Fingerprint scanner ring around it exactly like iPhone s5. Well, on the sides Samsung has not made much difference and retains the Power key and volume rockers at the same place.
