I use it all the time, in various apps, with the stylus at a writing angle, or just slightly angled, and it's never done that. If anyone else has an opinion on the accuracy of the S-Pen, good or bad, please let me know.Oh no, that's not right. I'll probably end up following your advice on exchanging it to be on the safe side. Unfortunately I don't have any store nearby which has the Note in stock, so it's difficult to do an un-biased comparison.īut it's good to know that it should perform better than what I've experienced. I'll try that later today to see if the same problems show up (they should). Thanks's for the suggestion about trying with a straight edge. Thank's in advance, and sorry for rambling ) Samsung market this as a tool for producing content and have commercials with artists making works of art with it, but I'm having a hard time drawing straight lines when at the same time my budget Wacom Bamboo tablet produces nice crisp lines on my Mac. I think it's a bit sad if the accuracy isn't better than this. AND, sometimes I will get a spike despite this, and then I can fix it by instead keeping the pen slanted in the troublesome spot.Īre you having these sort of problems with your pens, and/or do you know what could cause it or how to remedy it? The only way I've found to make the pen a little more reliable is to keep it almost perpendicular to the screen, but then I cover what I draw with my fingers, and it's really not comfortable or natural. I have the same problem in Sketchbook Pro and Note and PS Touch. It doesn't matter if I have my palm on the screen or not, and I don't have a cover for the tablet. I have reproduced the same behavios by drawing a second or third line next to the one that has a spike, and sure enough, the other lines behave exactly the same when I get close to where I had trouble on the first line.

This means that lines, arcs and so on can become jagged when they should be smooth. If I draw a line slowly and as accurate as I can, the air-dot on-screen can suddenly jump to a position 3-4 millimeters away from where the nib is, and then jump back again and continue on the right path.

When sketching, the traced line sometimes "spikes". However, I have one major gripe with the tablet after using it for a week:

I recently picked a Note 10.1 up because I find it very useful for sketching art (mainly game-art for mobile game development).
