How often do you use the stylus in your Samsung Galaxy Note/Note II?

"Now that the Note II has been out for a while, and with the Note customers having more than a year of feedback, we wanted to ask the Note/Note II OWNERS whether the stylus is indeed an indispensable everyday tool."

Actually, there should have been an option that said "I didn't read the article and now I'm going to complain there wasn't an option in the poll that wasn't directed at me to begin with" since you seem to have been one of those people.

Yeah right..I didn't read the article.

I am REALLY enjoying the HTC Droid DNA right now. It's the best smartphone around. I am definitely going to jump on the Samsung Galaxy Note III when it comes out next year.

6.3" 1080p Super AMOLED RGB HD screen will just be EPIC. Also how about 4GB of RAM on that beast!

Let the rumors fly! This time next year I will be using a stylus for sure! lol

Anything above 6 inch is not a phone anymore.
I would say the note 3 should be between 5.8 to 6 inch max depending on the bezel and how sammy can adjust the size of this monster phablet that I love.
4GB ram is welocme but I would say more likely the note 3 will have 3GB ram.

I agree, though, it would be great to have a voice radio on a 7"+ tablet!!

So you like the DNA?? I was wondering if Verizon customers would buy it or not. I dont have Verizon, but I was wondering if the bettery life on the DNA would be a downside to it??

I dont know what it is about HTC, but they dont supply their phones with sufficient battery life for their phones. I have the Inspire from AT&T and I have to keep a charger cord with me at ALL TIMES lol. Youd think after the lackluster battery issues HTC had with the Inspire (AT&T) and the Thunderbolt (Verizon) that they wouldve learned their lesson by now

The HTC Droid DNA is the first phone with great battery life from HTC’s camp. The 1080p SLCD-3 HD screen with the quad-core Qualcomm Krait S4 Pro is VERY, VERY good with battery life. I can get over 3 hours of screen on time & almost 2 days 16 hours on a single charge. That is Wi-Fi at night & 4G from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. That is with regular calls, texting & web browsing.

Now if I watch let’s say 3 Walking Dead episodes back to back & play 1 hour of Temple Run my phone will last 22 hours on a single charge, streaming HD content is WAY more taxing than just straight web browsing.

To me that is GREAT & it's WAY better than I was getting on my rooted Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

The HTC Droid DNA is the best smartphone around right now. The BEST phablet around is the Samsung Galaxy Note II. To ME the 2 best Android devices in the world right now are the HTC Droid DNA/J Butterfly & the Samsung Galaxy Note II undisputedly.

i agree with what you said about the Note II and im glad that you responded about the DNA because, again, I havent heard any reviews about it from Verizon customers yet.

I stand corrected about the DNA and im glad that you said what you said. I guess the quad-core processor on the DNA makes a difference! I still like the Note II, but Id consider the DNA if there was an AT&T variant

I was saying hey to this sexy lady while holding my Note 2 and said she liked my gangnum stylus. Woop... woop... woop.

For me, the ability to preview the content of e-mails by hovering the stylus over the e-mail makes the cost of the Note II worth every penny. I don't use the stylus every time I use the Note II, but when I am checking e-mail, the stylus is out before I open the e-mail app.

Please tell me this guy is joking?

i seriously refrained from saying something this time.... its a bit embarrassing to say the least :(

24. PAPINYC posted on 13 Dec 2012, 08:42 3

A stylus is like that little thing you use as a rectal thermometer except, the one on the Galaxy Note II is removable whereas, yours' is permanently stuck in.

Besides that, my Galaxy Note II's stylus has special powers; I even used it to create my new AvAtAr ☆

27. Nathan_ingx posted on 13 Dec 2012, 08:50 1

Show off :P

7. seesharp88 posted on 13 Dec 2012, 06:33 9

It does allow for a level of accuracy that cannot come from a finger. For drawing etc

13. techspace posted on 13 Dec 2012, 06:40 0

but that's a very rare occasion........and you can also get the same amount of accuracy on the nokia's new screen, with a car key or stuff like that....you don't need a smart stylus, all you need is something sharp

19. OHaZZaR posted on 13 Dec 2012, 07:04 3

There's over 1000 levels of pressure sensitivity when using the S-Pen on the GALAXY Note II, and you get 1 on every other phone except for the ones that use a wacom stylus. Using a key still gives you 1 level of pressure sensitivity.

that's more than enough for any app in the play store
and the user experience should be improved by improving the screen, not the stylus
i have used that on my note and its nothing when compared to the accuracy that we get when we write on the paper with a pen
i can say that having a pen is the worst thing about the note......get the latest smart stylus and try it on you own, you will never say that again

for you kind information, i don't use the lumia.....all i have is the note(1) and the ipad3...i never use the stylus
who wants to carry a pen everywhere?
i didn't say that the lumia's screen is the best...i said that its the right way to go....its a better idea to improve the screen instead of working on making a pen for the old screen

I agree. I use the stylus all the time, if just to see the tool-tips for most of my apps. But, I use it for notes, doodling, and when I don't want to touch the screen with sticky fingers.

As for the poll, at least it brought up the topic. Yet, I wonder how many DNA owners are clicking the last option.

34. SleepingOz posted on 13 Dec 2012, 09:58 2

Not to mention that there's a lot of trolls who don't even own a GNOTE voting.

25. redsox420 posted on 13 Dec 2012, 08:44 1

Exactly. Why do trolls comment on something they don't use/own? I mean you morons make yourself look like idiots that have nothing better to do.

I actually have AT&Ts version of the Note 2. I use my S-Pen all the time, Its easy to use with Swype while typing a text.., Angry Birds, Sketchbook Mobile, etc.

I don't own the iphoney or DNA and I'm not commenting on those. So STFU

41. nicholassss posted on 13 Dec 2012, 15:01 0

They just make fun of you for your phone being too big.

42. redsox420 posted on 13 Dec 2012, 15:12 0

Then why in the phuck are you commenting on the device if you don't own it? Doesn't that make you look like the phandroid? If you don't own a particular device then why comment about it?

I have the ATT version. Its pretty fn sweet. Iphoney users put their little kids toy away when the Note 2 is around.

The S-Pen is pretty fun to use. I use it with Sketchbook Mobile, Angry Birds, Notes, etc. I use it to compose emails, etc. The Ink Effect when unlocking with your S-Pen is a nifty little feature.

I use Chrome only on my device, its blazing fast even at 4g lte speeds. I had the Infuse 4g before and never got 4g ever. So this is amazing.

Just wondering WHY the US carriers disabled Multi-View on their devices. Seems likes its a Samsung thing and should have been included OTB. But on ATT ill see it by the time the Note 3 comes out.

I appreciate the want to use in front of ifans, but really unless you own one or have used one, please, comment on something you know something about.

54. ash29 posted on 14 Dec 2012, 06:47 1

Lol no was just joking dont own that device.
