Use with Note Stylus? - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Seeing the Note 5 won't be released on Europe, I'm wondering of the S6 Edge+ will work (flawlessly) with the stylus from the Note?
I want to get the Note 5 experience on the S6 Edge+, using the stylus mainly, instead of my finger.
PS: Shame on Samsung for cheating us in Europe.

It will not. It doesn't have the wacom digitizer layer required for the s pen to work.
When I picked up my s6e+ at my local T-Mobile, someone there tried and it didn't work.

Air View without s-pen please!

I guess that's something we'll get with the next update (hopefully). That is assuming it's got to do with camera rather than any other sensors.
I don't think airview will work well with your finger as your finger or a capasitive stylus requires too much real estate to register. Where the s-pen can be very selective due to it's size.
This has been made on some devices, but I'm not sure the Note II's screen is compatible.
As far as I know the Spen has an onboard transducer that communicates with the phone, so unless you embed a transducer in your finger it's not gonna happen anytime soon.....lol.
I think he means the same feature on s4.
It should be possible for the note 2 as well unless the screen technology on s4 is something completely new.

My apologies - I did'nt know the S4 could do that, but I'm pretty sure the note 2 talks to a transducer in the Spen - read it somewhere.

Thanks bro

Actually num 3 is a yes. Just tested with my wife n3 set on my n2. It locks securely as well only it doesnt follow the body shape contour of the n2. But yes it fits the slot and securely too.
Num 1 is a yes.
Num 2 is a definate no. Screen digitizer i assume doesnt exist in the note 2 menu and back buttons.
Num 4 is that i saw a video on youtube that u dun need to actually hold the pen near to 90 degrees to write. U can hold it at any angle to write.

I was thinking of buying Note 3's Spen for my Note 2. I wonder would the handwriting or pressure sensitive is a lot better using the Note 3 Spen?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
For pressure issues there is a tutorial on how to adjust the level. U can google it. Only angles are affected

Thanks for all the responds guys.

S-pen working on gakaxy s4

Does anyone know if there is a way to get a s-pen to work in the Galaxy S4 sgh-I337? Please let me know, this is one thing i miss so muvh as well as S Note. You don't realize hiw important it is once you don't have access to it anymore.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S4 using the XDA Premium App
This is the wrong thread for your question but to answer it, unfortunately no there isn't a way to get the s-pen to work like it did on your note. The S4 doesn't have the digitizer to for it. Your best bet for a stylus would be a capacitance one.

S Pen on multiple devices

l used to be able to use the spen from my Note 10.1(2014) and my note3 interchangeably. Somehow I am no longer able to do this anymore. pretty annoying if you own both devices. Anybody figure out how to enable this again?

My note 3 Stylus works just fine on my Surface Pro..
Not really answering my question though xD
Try taking the stylus out of the note 10 first. I bet they turn the wacom off if the stylus is seated...

S6 edge plus display inherently not as good as other "regular" AMOLEDs?

Just an observation coming from Note 3 , Note 4 and last phone LG V10 which was IPS display.
The current handset T Mobile Edge S6+ does not seem to be as sharp per se in image quality, meaning its not as crisp of an image ( notable when reading ) compared to what I was expecting. I'm guessing this is normal, anyone come from a Note 3 or 4 and care to chime in?
I came from note 3 and before that i had s4.
I feel s6 edge+ is better than them.

True, i think it was my eyes getting used to amoled again. One before was LG v10 IPS.
Only thing i don't like is the tiny system fonts example LTE icon and so forth.

Yes, its smaller than what I'm used to also notification are smaller. Increasing font size doesn't effect it.

Short answer - My best friend buy S7E and we compared this two devices. The conclusion is S6E+ is better in screen, camera, overall beauty.
