    I have really bad arthritis and the size is the main selling point of the pro for me. I feel like telling everyone not to get it based purely on its size is pretty narrow minded when there's a good portion of people out there who actually see it's larger size as a positive. It's very much a personal taste kind of thing.

    This pen should've been compatible with the laptops for as big as it is, also unpopular opinion I prefer the new age pens over the ones that store in the phone simply because of the size of them, which is closer to regular pen size, I find them more comfortable to write with.

    Ok, if your like me, I have a tab S 7 plus, Z fold 3, and the 360 convertible computer. It's nice to have 1 pen to use on all three. When I go to the library I have my tab s 7 plus and z fold 3. I use one pen on all of them. Sometimes when I have all 3 of my devices, it's nice to only need 1 pen for all 3 devices. My computer, phone tablet. So, yes I need this pen.

    S Pen Pro is big because of the lithium ion battery inside it. Once 100% charged, it lasts for a month with constant use before needing to recharge it. Also the Bluetooth LE component is what allows it to work with other Samsung products that use air gestures that was added to Galaxy ultra line as note series seems to have ended. It's really a dismissive millennial attitude to be negative over the S Pen Pro being the size of a #2 graphite pencil. Coming from a time when having a great smooth writing pen helped ease cramping your hand ✍ because we used to write on paper opposed to using your finger on a digitized screen to your writing today. Put the S Pen Pro in your bag, man purse or your pocket if you may need to sign your name to a document you're editing in Adobe or some PDF editor.

    I'm a tattoo artist and i love drawing on my giant Samsung tablet better then my old iPad pro that I used to have. Main reason is more file sharing options afterwards and better customizable and multitasking experience. Plus a lot of documents that are sent to me I haven't been able to view on ios. Pretty much all of them from bank statements to EDD documents to government and SSI files, I just seem to get Much more use out of my Samsung. I've noticed no matter what documents are sent to me its so easy to open view and sign if need be , THATS WHAT YOU WANT IN A TABLET.

    I got one using bonus points and cash from when I pre-ordered my Z Fold 3. Out of curiosity, i tried using it on my Z Fold 2, but it didn't work. Before the Fold line, I had 3 Notes so being able to use the S Pen again feels good. I wish the pen would compress and extend out to make it more portable.

    I have a disease that makes writing with small pens more difficult, with carpel tunnel on top of that from years of officework. I use my S7 and F3 pens for quick notes for work or whatever, but the pro for taking notes for school (non traditional student here) because it's so much easier on my hand when I have to write a lot. I'm thrilled they made a bigger one and highly recommend it 🤷‍♀️

      I don't think some reviewers understand the purpose of the S-Pen Pro. It supposed to be an all around SPen for all devices. It was never specifically designed for the Z Fold 3 or the S 21 Ultra. As an S7 Plus owner, this is exactly what I've been waiting for!!

    This is actually a super solid stylus in my opinion. Maybe not ideal for everyone. But specially if you do art, having a pen-sized stylus is more comfortable if you're doing digital art on bigger screens for hours at a time, i.e. on a Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 360.

It might have GPS built in, judging from what I observed. You can also set the Smart Things app to let you know you left it behind. BTW, if you loan it to your kid, you can use it to track where they are with it. Something Samsung never mentioned in their literature, but a useful function nonetheless.

Not an impediment at all and it actually serves as a little bit of a grip to pull the pen out when I want to use it.

  • @josh885

    I agree. The S Pen Pro is too big to carry with you unless you always have a day bag or something like that and even then the smaller lighter one is a much better experience for actually writing/taping on the the device. Which is the most important function as it is the whole point of having a stylus in the first place. Sure some of the air remote features are neat and look cool and futurist to show your friends but beyond basically being a party trick they aren't useful enough to make dealing with trying to carry and use such a big stylus worth it. I feel like the air remote features really dont' belong in a pen. A separate remote for them in an actual remote like form factor would have been a better idea IMO. At least until Samsung figures out how to get the Bluetooth guts in the pen small enough to make it as least as small as the Fold Edition S Pen.

      It's not really intended for phones in that way though, it's supposed to be better for digital art, which is why it has such low latency. The smaller pens aren't great for drawing, so it makes sense that the "pro" pen is bigger to make drawing more comfortable.

      @@phoebeblaze3668 Do you have a Fold 3 and the S-pen fold edition? My comment is specifically about that S pen fold edition vs the Pro. The fold edition s pen is the perfect size for drawing. It is about the size in both thickness and length and and about the same weight a regular pencil. Unlike the overly skinny Note series s pens and the overly huge s pen pro, the S pen fold edition is the perfect size. And VS the pro edition it's easier to carry around, much less expensive, lighter, and you don't have to charge it. It's just flat out better in every way that matters than the s pen pro. The only thing the pro does that the fold edition s pen doesn't is the largely pointless gimmicky air features. All s pen enabled devices should have an S pen the size of the fold edition and maybe a skinny one to carry in a silo on the device and Samsung should just forget all that Bluetooth air gesture nonsense the requires such huge cumbersome,pen.

    Even as a long time Note phone user (since the Note 2), I have to agree. The S Pen Pro is just too big to compliment my Z Fold 3. It took Samsung over 6 weeks to ship it to me, and when I received it yesterday I discovered it was not worth the wait. IMHO, the best S Pen is the one on my Tab S6. It's the ultimate in comfort and size, and it attaches to the device magnetically. 2nd best are the Note phone S Pens, which are unavoidably too skinny and short. 3rd and last best is this S Pen Pro. No way am I carrying this big wand-like device in my pants pocket all day, or ever.

    I believe the s-pen fold is a 'dumb' stylus... No battery and doesn't work with the air commands. The pro has more options because it has a memory, it's faster, needs charging every 16 days and it's good on many other devices. If your spending money on the z-fold 3,then I would spend the extra $50 for the pro rather than buying the s-pen, better that having regrets. It also works on a slant.

    So, I got my Z Fold 3 on launch day. Loving it. Been watching your channel for a while now for the leaks and rumors on Notes and Folds. Yes it would have been nice to have the S-Pen in the Fold but I am getting by having to carry it arouns with me.
    What most people haven't yet realized is that even though the regular S-Pen do not work on the Fold 3, the S-Pen Fold Edition dose work on all other S-Pen enabled phones. My S-Pen Fold Edition works on my Note 20 Ultra and Note 10+.
    As a side note, if you attach a narrow strip of tin foil to the flat side of the pen from the top(rounded end) about 1/4" from the top to about the halfway point with scotch tape. Leaving two 1/2" sections not covered with tape at either end. Then add a ruber stylus tip to the rounded end of the stylus, you can now use your stylus on any phone and the couver screen of the Fold 3.

    I wouldn't have bought a z fold 3 if I knew the pen that came with it was a total POS... Upgraded to the S pen pro to get back the features that I was missing from being a long term galaxy note user. The S Pen gives me two capabilities that I can't live without anymore:
    1. Hover to translate: Literally life changing when your day to day life is in another language, every other translation tool pales in comparison
    2. Smart select: capture a snippet of text that you can then stick to the front of other windows, allowing you to manually enter a phone number or password etc that was shared as an image
    Noteworthy uses:
    3. Being able to doodle (yes, less useful than the above)
    5. Smart select: Turn text in an image into text (not super reliable when working in multiple languages)
    6. Air commands: Using the S Pen to take a photo (especially good now that the phone stands up by itself)
    It is massive and I need to figure out a way to have it with me everywhere (thinking of adding custom pouches to my clothes? May end up in the wash then?).
    The fact that I had to pay extra to get this pen and regain this functionality when I paid like a million dollars for the phone sucks, but that's an issue with the phone (and me being a sucker), not the pen. Hopefully future Folds have the S Pen in the body of the phone, otherwise it's back to the Note for me.

    Small stuff when making videos, but probably worth noting- When you were showing the S Pen's toggle switch and buttons, the words were upside down. May not seem like much, however this made me stop watching the video. Like, it would take a half second to flip it and you can even edit it out. Better than giving the reference, "pushing the toggle towards the end of the pen for the fold".
    Meant to be constructive criticism. Good luck dude.

    Hard pass. I bought an spen pro in July and I draw allot. Had this guy for a couple months and today I had to switch to the last nib it came with, and im not even a heavy handed artist. It does require a more gentle touch, though the nibs are easy and affordable to replace. Not worth the money, 2 other s pens I have are way better and more comfortable

  • @AJ-on-youtube

    It's important to me to have a remote shutter trigger for the phone's camera, and this is, apparently, the only way to get that on the S21 (which I'm planning on purchasing).
    You might be able to find a case that the S-Pen Pro will fit into for storage.
    It is kind of annoying that you have to charge it separately though. They should have at least given it wireless charging ability so your phone could automatically charge it via Wireless PowerShare or you could wirelessly charge it at the same time as your phone.

    • @petermc7467

      I have a Fresh N Rebel selfie stick that has a Bluetooth paired picture taking function. Thus the button, that functions like a wireless camera shot taking remote. So there are other options available, albeit, somewhat less portable than the S Pen Pro. This is rather useful for stable camera moon shots taken at high zoom with my S21 Ultra, if phone is mounted independently from the selfie stick. This minimises shake and blur for the shot.

    Nice idea but sorry it's not as good as the note pen. The note pen is smaller and it charges in your phone. Not too many people are going to walk around carrying a charger for their fold or S21 Ultra pen.

I love the standard S-Pen I didn't even know there was a pro version of the S-Pen... so cough up 100 dollars for that would it really be worth it? 🤔
