Pen on stylus: I know this is a dumb question, but is the ballpoint pen a real pen that you can write on a piece of paper with?

The Ballpoint pen is your regular pen with ink. The other side is for Tablets.

Hi WEEZIE! My apologies for the late reply. Yes! All of our pens will work on any capacitive touch screen device, so basically they replace your fingertip on any screen you would use it on. Hope that helps! Jessie / The Friendly Swede

I don't believe it can be used that way. It does have a pointer, but since I've only used it once last January for a presentation, I don't remember all the features. I don't recall reading any instructions with it that talks about it being used as a pen.

You can use either your fingers or the pen. In most cases they are equivalent but there are still a few different features.

Yes you can. The device comes with a stylus but the screen is actually pressure sensitive. This means you can even do finger art.Just want to add something. Some lines (made with very light pressure) can appear on screen but may not appear in the saved version (PDF). Not sure why bu I guess the save is not as sensitive as the actual screen.

It does both. One side is a ball point pen for writing in paper and the other side is a stylus for use on the tablet. Its really cool.

As far as I know, the tab 3 does not a stylus/pen. You could write with a stylus on Note 8. Hope this is helpful. Best regards.

Absolutely. The pen sends a different signal to the screen than your finger. If you first hold the pen close enough to the screen to be detected (without resting your palm on the screen), you can continue to write/draw even when resting on your palm on the screen.

Yes, it's a clear, light weight plastic fountain pen that writes surprisingly good. It also has a ball point fitting that writes like a roller ball.I use mine as a roller ball.

This one is like a real pen on a paper would write, it is black and white, but you can write words and draw anything. There is no lines or squares on the back, whole screen is the same with no kind of under surface as many similar screens have. I think it is the best of it's kind, the only thing if you are looking for colors it is not the product you need.

I have a pen with a special soft point on the back end that I use as a stylus, but I usually use my finger. I may not be answering your question because I do not really use the tablet for much more than reading and podcasts.

Hi James! Unfortunately, this pen is just made to replace your fingertip on any capacitive touch-screen device (for swiping and tapping, etc). We just launched a new pen that is both a gel point pen and a stylus combination, which you can see here: http://www.amazon.com/The-Friendly-Swede-Precision-Replacement/dp/B00FFURRYC/ref=sr_1_1?m=AP0GL3AYI3XW1&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1383921394&sr=1-1&keywords=ballpoint Hope that helps!

Yes, Alan. It has the same functionality. It does not fit into the slot on the tablet, however. This pen will also "erase", so it actually does more than the original stylus. It's really neat!

In a way, by how easily it writes and the ink flows without much effort, but it most certainly is not a gel pen. I too enjoy gel pens but I must say as an ink ballpoint this is certainly as close as one can get to a gel pen. Hope that helps, also it's a bit like gel pens in that once you get really writing and you realize all the ink is finished before you know it haha.

Are you referring to the handwriting tool on the galaxy tab? If so, you must switch to that tool instead of the using the onscreen keyboard. Then you just write with the stylus as if it were a regular pen.

I have this type of stylus and really enjoy using it, It has the feel and texture ot a pencil. All that is required is to gently point thr rubberized tip on a letter or whatever tou are using if for. It helps me enter my dialogue faster,Good luck

This is just a touch screen stylus, not an ink pen or pencil. Also, with the larger tip on this stylus, it probably wouldn't be the best choice for a writing program.
