If the Pen for the S7 / S8 works, maybe the "STAEDTLER Noris Digital" works too on them. Its really cheap & works great. i Use the nibs for them & the "STAEDTLER Noris Digital mini" for my Onyx Boox Nova Air and i really like it.

Interesting. Never thought about trying that, since the S8 stylus is powered. Maybe it is only powered so the tablet can nag you if you leave it behind.

It looks like there are knock-off versions of the S Pen Fold on Amazon for less than $20. Those should work with Scribe too. Last edited by tomsem; 05-01-2023 at 07:24 PM. |

Wacom pens do need power, it's just it's from the host, not a battery. A Wacom EMR without Bluetooth won't have a battery. Similarly an MS Surface / Kobo pen (incompatible with Scribe) can have BT for "One Note" and often needs a second battery, but the Kobo, like the Scribe, doesn't use BT functions in a pen and it's optional even on MS Surface.
There are a few pens that do MS/Kobo protocol and ALSO Wacom EMR. Apple of course uses a different system, but there are good cheap 3rd party Pencils. There are at least two Wacom systems that are incompatible. Older serial/USB sketching pads, tablets and laptop screens use the original Wacom, not Wacom EMR. Both kinds of Wacom I've used do seem to come in variable numbers of buttons and the original top "eraser" was simply a broader tip pressure sensitive input (on the pad) that could have an erase function, not a user button. |

I have several samsung tablets i never use the stylus. I use the tablets mainly for streaming TV I just decided to try the stylus out of the blue on the scribe and worked great and I did not need to charge them. I only going to use it as a back up th in case i run out of scribe nibs
