What is the Samsung S Pen & how do I use it?

Last Update date : Oct 09. 2026

The S Pen is a special stylus integrated into the Galaxy Note series, as well as some of the later Galaxy Tabs.

To use the S Pen, remove it from your device by pressing gently on the end. When you remove it, your device will vibrate briefly. You can also activate the S Pen by hovering it over the screen and quickly pressing the S Pen button at the end twice.

Please note: New features have been introduced with each new Galaxy Note and S Pen. Therefore, some of the features mentioned below may not be available on older models.
