Are the rubber tips replaceable on this? After a while the tip stops sliding smoothly on the screen of the galaxy tab 10.1

No, the rubber tips on the stylus are not replaceable. Wish they would, I buy the cheaper ones because of that.

Yes...IF you have one that was made after 2012. Though the same model #, the first generation version cannot unscrewed to replace the nub. So, be sure that the one you have can be unscrewed AT THE MIDDLE, NOT the end. Or, you can try to fit the 3mm thick nub edge into the 1/2mm wide rim, go blind, drive yourself insane, and hurl it at the wall after 3 hours. That was MY personal best time, anyway. Call me an optimist. Or an idiot. My ex would call me both. Hence, "ex".

It worked great before the tip fell off only about 45 days after purchasing it. It's even more disappointing that Samsung let their name be used on a $20 disposable stylus.

I like the smoothness of these and they don't leave rubber streaks on the screen, my only problem with them is they seem to wear quickly there is a rubber tip underneath though. I on the other hand am on my iPad from 10-12 hrs a day, that may contribute to the wear problem a little bit! They do not leave any fuzzies behind contrary to public belief. I really like them. Thanks for asking. Peace, Heidrun

The tip is 1/4 inch. But you do not have to press the 1/4 inch. It is a fiber of some sort. All you have to do is touch the screan lightly. Also, glides across the screen with great ease not like the rubber tips that you have to replace often.

Yes. This was a horrible stylus and the tips don't last very long. I have since move on to another stylus.

Well, don't know for sure, maybe in may case the screen protector is to thick and the pen can't have the proper contact with it, don't know, one thing I can tell you, I just have 3 months with it and the rubber tip already tor of. I'm expecting to see if I'm reliable for an exchange on it.

Yes, I use the stylus without any trouble. I am very happy with this screen protector.

Absolutely! The tips are a super soft rubber that can be bent enough, when being used, that the metal tube can scratch the device. I can confirm this when my daughter scratched my Ipod with it. (thankfully the screen protector worked as it should have!) Hope that helps. Good luck with your decision / purchase.

Rubber tip is big enough that I've never scratched the screen. I suppose if you pressed hard enough or used the side of the stylus it might be possible, but I think it is very unlikely to scratch the screen with these items.

As others have said, this type of tip seems to work more smoothly than the rubber ones. I use it on a Kindle Fire HD 8.9.

I don't know if the tips are replaceable. I do know their more durable than the rubber tipped pen I bought previously at twice the price just for the one rubber tipped pen.

Yes, and it's the best stylus I've ever used. I love you can order just the tip to replace, and it screws in and out easily.

This version does not have replaceable tips. They are pretty sturdy though, so they should last a while. They sell a more expensive version with replaceable tips.

I am not sure. I lost my stylus and was able to purchase one at Best Buy for around $25.00. It was more expensive to purchase it through Samsung. You can check to see if the same stylus for those are the same one that is replaceable. I just went on the Samsung site to see what was the replaceable stylus so I could purchase one.

The ink could be replaced. I don't know if the rubber tip could be replaced because it has a hole in the middle where the tip of the ink pen comes through. They're great pens, especially for the price. They write very well.

My stylus is long but I don't know if I would call it extra long. That being said as long as you can unscrew the tip off you should be able to replace it with these tips.

I would think so since the tip is replaceable. Their might be a manufacturer's defect.

The microfiber prevents the wearing of the coating on the rubber tips, I use mine for sketching on a drawing app and have found its much much better than the rubber. I'd really like to see one of these in a finer tip. I use for IPad, Kindle Fire HD and a cheap LG touch phone. Works break across the board.
