    Interesting. I’ve never tried the S pen, and I thought reviews leaned towards the Apple Pencil. And every other stylus experience I’ve tried so far is subpar. I should give the S Pen a try.

      Unlike Apple the Samsung tablets come packaged with the pen and are designed with a special layer on the screen dedicated to sense the pen. Apple barely has two models of the pencil with the latest being from 2018. There’s an S pen for every generation of galaxy tablets but most tablets and the flagship phones are compatible with the newest pens. The samsung software also has some unique features like the hover gestures that make it magical to use the S pen.
