S Pen, how many actually use it?

[Fiona26]

The s pen, how many actually use it? I know some pull it out once and to never use it again. I recently posted about Samsung's PENUP app. I know drawing is not for everyone, just like certain hobbies. We all have our favourites. Im posting just to see if I could get any one to give the s pen a go at drawing. Myself only recently just started, I was not the best at art while at school. It's certainly something that hasn't interested me, even though my mum has always been great at art. In the evening in my free time I've been giving PENUP a go, and in the little time I have been using the app, I really think I've improved. I'll share some of my work. Hopefully others may get the s pen out and share in this post too👍. Give it a go 😊.

These really did put a smile on my face.

Thanks.  I find it relaxing to do.  Samsung is actually what's helping me emotionally from being ill. It keeps me going with my special interest with it and with how my S22U has the camera system I've wanted along with S Pen. I'm loyal to Samsung for those reasons.

I've already done photography for 2 events using my S22U. I've been able to leave my DSLR at home and just use it.  The S22U seems to take better photos than my Canon. I have the 7D Mark II and the S22U is easier for me to take photos with too.

I think samsung make great devices.

Yes they do.  They are most accommodating and innovative. Samsung has some very creative people designing their phones especially the Notes and S Ultra. I've only ever used Notes and my S22U is the first Galaxy S I've used. I started with Note 3, which I used for 4 years which was my mother's old phone that I used for 4 years.  She gave it to me when she knew I always wanted a Note 3. It's almost 10 years old and still works.  I got a gently used Note 20 5G last year that I used as my daily driver until 2 weeks ago when I got my S22U.

I love Samsung as much as people love their favorite sports teams. I'm that passionate about Samsung. My entire house would be run on Samsung if it was up to me and I can afford it. I'm that crazy about Samsung.

My Dad uses his for notetaking on his S22 Ultra. I use mine on my Tab S8+ mostly for creative stuff, either colouring in PenUp or more involved work in Clip Studio, and I lament that it doesn't work on the non-ultra models of the S range because I would use it on my phone, too, if I could!

That's because compatible screens work of an inductive digitizer unlike most devices that have a conductive digitizer.  The S pen compatible screens work off electromagnetism coils in both S pen and in the screens digitizer. Just like a compatible pan on an induction burner.  Phones with wireless charging work the same way with their pads.  

That's why only certain screens work with the s pen. They need the induction in the screen to make precise gestures and to have that natural pen to paper feel.  A little crash course in physical science for you from someone who was bored to tears in physical science in 8th grade,  thinking I would never have to study it again,  yet here I am explaining it to help others understand how S pen works

I always use the S Pen to type and also manoeuvre around the screen.  I also use the S Pen to copy text, translate, and magnify, I find it easier to use than my fingers..  

It's a great tool and hope that the Ultras continue to be supplied with one.

Same here because of my disabilities.  Touch screens and my fingers don't get along

I do this things on both my S22U and Tab S6 Lite. In phone calls,  I'll talk on my S22U and use my Note 20 as a notepad and then when I get off the phone whatever I wrote will be in Samsung Notes on my S22U
