Do you actually use your s-pen?

Yeah I do.... In Draw something and I find the snote app very useful for shopping list as i am old and my memory is S***te
 
Continuously use the pen.

I write all my meeting notes and documents - Just went on a trip to Ottawa for 2 days of meetings and fire tests. Took my Note and laptop. Never touched the laptop - did everything on my Note - meeting notes, wrote reports, answered emails, photographs.

I just got my Note Saturday and really like the pen. I use it pretty much all the time and can't see me stopping...
 
Sometimes I use it a lot and sometimes not. To be honestly I haven't yet really tacklde the pen-centric Samsung apps, which I intend to do soon. But I do find the pen useful for other things.

Tried it first day when I got the note, never used since.

Actually, tell a lie, i have used it once and it came in very handy.

I scanned a bank statement with note that i needed to email, and i didnt want them seeing all the figures going in and out of my account, so drawing black lines through the bits of info that i didnt want them to see was very easy. With my previous phone i had to zoom right and blank it with my finger. with the s pen, it was so quick and accurate.

but yeah, that's legitimately the only time i've had a use for the pen.
 
I have taken a note or five with the stylus, but that was not the main reason I wanted one. Around here it can get down to -18c (-2 Fahrenheit) and I need to wear big gloves. The stylus will allow me to continue using the phone in those temperatures with comfort ;)

I think I would use it all the time if it was in the top right corner instead of the bottom like my Treo was. It's not comfortable for me to pull it out of the bottom.

It is indeed. As I told, I almost never use it and when I needed it, most of the time I touched the back button :mad:
 
Used the pen only last night to take everyone's orders before phoning the Chinese takeaway :)

An annoying thing with s-Note though is that if the phone goes to sleep an unsaved note gets lost!

Got so frustrated I tossed mine out. Some days it works, but most of the time it detects taps 3 cm above the display.
 
I use mine a lot .. especially for messaging on a sliding keyboard, it's much easier and more precise than my finger. I also use it for Draw Something and Wordfeud, and occasionally for notes, but I often just jot those down on a bit of paper.
I would miss it if I swopped to a phone without it.
