Samsung Galaxy S8, the stylus S Pen as an accessory? – Want …

The S Pen has so far been exclusive to the Galaxy Note series, but the stylus could be offered as an accessory for the next Galaxy S8. According to latest rumors coming from China, the Korean manufacturer decided to offer the S Pen to meet the needs of the users that had purchased the Galaxy Note 7, removed from the market following the well-known problem of the batteries.

for several weeks, circulate conflicting information on the size of the smartphone. Some speculate that the samsung Galaxy S8 will be available with display of 5.1 and 5.5-inch display, while others believe that Samsung will introduce a Plus version with 6-inch screen. The latter should take the place of the Galaxy Note 7, pending the arrival on the market of the Galaxy Note 8 (autumn 2017). A touch surface so wide it could be used to write and draw with the stylus. In fact, a prototype of the Galaxy S8 had the S Pen-integrated, but the manufacturer has subsequently changed his mind. This does not exclude the possibility that the stylus may be available as an accessory.

The S Pen of the Galaxy Note 7 was improved compared to the version of the previous Galaxy Note 5. Samsung had reduced the thickness of the tip from 1,6 to 0.7 mm and doubled levels of pressure of 2,048 to 4,096. On the unfortunate phablet was installed the new app, the Samsung Notes, and added support for new Air Command (translation and zoom). The feature Screen Off Memo also allowed to take notes on the screen turned off, taking advantage of the mode is Always-On Display. If the S Pen will be offered as an accessory for the Galaxy S8, all these new features will certainly be accessible on the next top of the range.

Samsung should then satisfy the users who wanted to buy the Galaxy Note 7 and those who were forced to return it. However, any decision to add support for the stylus may be a risk, given that this would have a negative impact on sales of the Galaxy Note 8.
