There are pros and cons to these S-Pens/Styluses

UPDATE: I've had those tiny molded plastic caps on the top of the pen popped off (press those spring-loaded buttons and then pop) three times. so you can remove the stylus from its storage location in the phone). Luckily I was able to find this tiny piece of plastic and glue it in place. Maybe you're not so lucky. Rating downgraded to 2 stars. I think this is a serious problem that will frustrate users. My thoughts on these pens are mixed. First, I liked the price for a simpler, non-Bluetooth design compared to the standard Samsung OEM S Pen with Bluetooth (which I find pretty picky). I don't need a Bluetooth connection to my phone via a stylus. When I need remote control over the phone, I use a larger Bluetooth presentation clicker that works further away and has more control (e.g. over a PowerPoint presentation I'm streaming on a smart TV). That's why I love the Dinofire Ring. Second, I liked how this pen wrote better on my phone's screen than my original Samsung pen (it was very disappointing as it started writing 3/4 inch from the screen and left a lot of unintended marks). letters). This S-Pen/Stylus looked exactly the same and fit exactly the same in its intended slot on my Note 9. If there was a sizing issue in previous versions, it has been fixed. I was happy with the first one I used (my OEM broke) so I ordered two more boxes of two (6 total - I usually keep my electronics for a long time). time and desired spare parts available). However, the tiny molded plastic cover on top of the first pin came loose as shown in the attached photo. I was able to reattach it with some gorilla glue but it would have been nice if it stayed in place. If the top came loose and got lost I would be very upset. So a word of caution to users. Others also report a lack of stamina. My guess is that this is a compromise between expensive original S-Pens and cheap aftermarket S-Pens. As I mentioned I have 6 of these pens so will be using them for years to come. If you liked this review, please rate it.
