Samsung now sells its top-of-the-line S Pen in the US for $99.99. The S Pen Creator Edition, which has been on sale in Europe since it was announced, brings some notable improvements over other S Pen models.
For starters, it’s larger and more comfortable for both drawing and writing. It supports 4,096 levels of pressure sensitivity (the same as the S Pen on the S23 Ultra) but adds a 60° tilt angle for a better drawing experience.
The S Pen Creator edition
The S Pen Creator Edition supports Samsung Galaxy phones from the Galaxy Note10 and up, as well as the entire Galaxy S series, although the Galaxy Z Fold series is not supported (because it requires a retractable tip).
The stylus can be attached magnetically to the side of Galaxy Tab S models and is battery-free, meaning it requires no charging.
There is a single button on the side of the S Pen Creator Edition, which is used for different tasks in different apps. The stylus is also IPX4 rated for splash resistance (unlike the IP68-rated mobile S Pen).
At $99.99, the S Pen Creator Edition slots in between the $129 Apple Pencil and the recently unveiled $79 Apple Pencil USB-C, though the iPad’s impressive catalog of apps is a huge plus for the Cupertino stylus.
