BT S Pen feedback

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.

And is not there any possibility of buying it from another country?? Maybe the shop have a web or something like that. Because the price is greatest.

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

I am wondering if this will work on a Samsung Tab 2?? I really like it and want it to compliment the Tab and the G2. Thanks for any feedback provided.

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.

Bump. Any reviews of the site generally and of the charger, in particular?

Thanks for the tip. Just ordered this from them, seems on the up-and-up. Will post back when it arrives.

How about that one ?

Any news on the Nexus Qi charger shown in promos when the Nexus 4 was announced? And will it be sold in the Google Play Store as an accessory?

I have not heard anything. Unfortunately Google is know for either being very slow to release accessories or never releasing them. I really wish they would release the orb charger, I would definitely buy one. In the mean time this one could fill the gap until its possible release.

I think they will start selling for that much in a few months.
This one seems nice and the price is good too. But I don't read Japanese
PS: The charger does not ship outside Japan. But the same seller has the charger for sale on eBay US. Comes to around $73 with shipping!

It seems like everything but the huge energizer charger is sold out on amazon. Is there anywhere to buy a simple one position charger in the US?

Someone mentioned in the Qi thread in the ATT Galaxy S3 section that he had found a charger for ~$47 at his Wal-Mart. I got the impression it was the LG one, but not sure since that price looks higher than I've seen mentioned for it. However I can't find it on their website.
So... the only source in the US that might be in stock is ATT and Verizon for the Nokia charger. The V also has the Fatboy charge pillow on their site. When I've checked the ATT site, they only showed black--but their store might have more I guess.

[Q] Where to buy a new battery for the SGR

I have moved on from SGR to Nexus 4 but still my SGR is in use and is with my wife. I am running Stock Indian ICS (rooted).
Lately my wife is complaining that the battery is dying very fast. Even though it is charged overnight, it just dies in couple of hours. I have noticed that the battery has also bulged and based on some googling it is a definite case of battery going kaput. Now I am in need of a new battery and was wondering if it is fine to order it from EBay India where the cost of the batteries varies from INR 375 to 1K or should I try any other local shop. Need advice from you friends.

Batteries are life for Mobile. But if we choose Bad one then It may be harmful too. So, I would suggest to go for Branded & Original product then pirated or looking same kinda.

I definitely want to buy an original battery as I dont want to take any kind of risk as I have seen many cases in news of exploding batteries.
Would it be a good idea to visit the Samsung Service Center for the new battery? Do they sell it?

I got mine recently at ssc..costs around 600 rs

Its more then enough. They charge too much.

Thanks all. Visited the nearest SSC but they didn't have it in stock. Then went to a Samsung SmartPhone Cafe in Phoenix Market City and got it for Rs.550 with 6 months warrenty. At first they said that they dont have any battery for GSR and I had to convince them that it is the same as I9100. After matching the model number they gave it to me.......

Some Questions

Hi all I was thinking to buy a Smartwatch and I saw the new Sony Smartwatch 2 but I think 200 € its so expensive and it doesn't worth it just because nfc and little improvements so I'm looking to pick that one ( the "old" one).
But before buying it I'll like to know some things:
1- Is it really that difficult to conect the charger, do you have any tricks or something to have it in full contact and avoid disconections?
2-I've read all the informational posts and so and I'm a little bit scared of the influence of direct sun to the screen. I live in catalonia (Spain) and the sun brights a lot here so, am I going to have big problems to see the information into the watch?
3-Is there any important thing that I should know before purchasing it? I mean for example my galaxy note 2 is affected by something called SDS and can die at any moment.
well if you arrived here thanks for reading the whole post and thanks in advance for the answers.

1.I've recently picked up an orginal smartwatch... can't believe how shoddy the charging system is. the clip doesn't have enough pressure to keep the charger connected so i have a zip tie which will slide right off, holds enough pressure to let it charge without issue
2. if you have to, you can shield it with your hand and see it just fine.
3. nothing that ive discovered so far. it's working like a charm, but I think i'll get the 2 when it comes out. the springloaded clip really kills the stylish look that the watch otherwise has.

thanks! that's enough for me to pick it

best place to purchase oem battery

The battery on my Nexus 4 no longer holds a charge very well. Neither LG or Google directly sell replacement batteries from what I gather. Does anyone know a reputable source to purchase an OEM replacement battery? I'm considering this seller on ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-BL-T5-BL..._Cell_Phone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item2a386ff701
but you just never really know what's legitimate these days. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Also,
Does anyone know where I can find an OEM Nexus 4 USB cable? I know any micro usb would suffice but I happen to like the aesthetic design of that cable.

LG service centers do provide battery replacements for a cost. I got mine replaced a couple of months back for around $22.

i just bought a replacement battery a couple of weeks ago. got it yesterday and it works fine, but be careful with ribbon cable it snaps easily
paid $19 on ebay for it

Battery "life" of a lithium ion is around 500 cycles. If you've charged your phone daily, you've hit that 500 cycle mark. At this point, your battery has probably lost up to 20% of its capacity.

Dude, why would you buy a screen from eBay for 90 euros and don't even know 100% if it's original, when for 80 euros you can buy it directly from LG. I bought one a month ago and it's amazing, plus you have 1 year warranty.

I don't think it's Europe only. On the right side there is a picture that says "Worldwide shipping..." which should mean that they ship spare parts anywhere in the world. If you want to order something maybe try and contact them first if they can ship to your country.
