Do you use the S-Pen more now that BLUETOOTH (others new features) is available?

I love the Note series but with prices increasing I needed something new to make it worth the upgrade?

I wouldn't have bought if SAMSUNG didn't include the IconX and minimum $200 trade-in.

Anyways, including the BLUETOOTH function was one of the reasons why I bought the 9. I'll be honest preciously I barely use it especially after a few days. I don't take Notes nor Draw.

Now it's different, I sometimes put my 9 down while working out and just carry the S-Pen. I'm not sure if this was available but I like that I can CUSTOMIZE THE AIR COMMAND. I use it more because of it.

How about you?

First time Note user, yes. I am using my Pen quite a bit.
 
I actually used my s pen to take a group photo on a course today for the first time. Have found myself using it more and more for note taking now. It's a great feature and the more I learn how to use it I cant see myself moving to any other phone bar a note 10 when it comes out 😊
 
I use the S-Pen for everything. I rarely use my fingers. The S-Pen so much easier to use and is more accurate.
 
How do I take pictures with it? Which camera does it use? (front or back?) I need to learn how to use my Pen

It uses both cameras, one click to take pic and 2 clicks to change camera I think.
To be honest I don't use the bluetooth part of the S pen much at all, in fact I can count on one hand the amount of times I've used it but I do use the S pen alot, so much that I would be reaching for it if I had any other handset.

I do try to take selfies and pics , but most of the time I forget I have the function available.lol
 
I use the s-pen wakeup feature when taking notes during a meeting. Long press: launch Onenote. Once the phone goes into standby, I press the button to wake it up. Works very well and I use it a lot.
 
I mostly use the pen to take screen caps. I have never tried the bluetooth for anything, don't really have a need for that.
 
Before I got my Note 9, I didn't think I'd use it more - but within a few days, I noticed how handy it is as a camera shutter button. I don't know if I use it more often now but it's become even more useful to me.
 
I have used it the most for scrolling with the Chrome browser. I have found it really convenient and with the SDK released, look forward to other app integrations.
 
I use it for the camera and music! being able to switch tracks while leaving the phone charging is awesome! and getting low pictures with the pen also is a great feature!
 
I love everything about this phone , from Bluetooth pen taking pictures, scrolling web with it and screen off writing customer numbers and work that needs to be done to their vehicles.
don't forget Bluetooth 5 dual device at once . like what don't this phone have
