Pen for Phone

[ReprobusR]

Can any Android phone use a pen; what recommendations are there for pens ?

Note phones

Any device with a capacitative touchscreen can use a standard capacitative stylus. But if you want an active stylus that has other functions (like the S Pen), then your main option is the Galaxy Note series.

I'm limited to Galaxy Note, uGghh.

What specifically do you want to use the stylus for?

The LG V60 supports active stylus but it's not integrated like the Note.

Far from it

Many things which I don't like to use my finger for.

I could picture you with the stylus stored behind your ear....lol

The new LG V60 has active stylus support, making it competitive with the Note series. The biggest downside is you'll have to buy a stylus separately (any with AES support works) and you can't store it inside the phone like with the Notes.

There is no pressure sensitive abilities with some pens ?

Correct. A capacitive stylus is no different than your finger. An active stylus will support pressure sensitivity if the phone is compatible.

Is it similar to LG stylos phone ?

Is it similar to LG styles phone ?

I know the older ones used a capacitive stylus. I had a Stylo 2 and the stylus was capacitive. Not sure about the current version, but I doubt much has changed. It's a lower tier phone.
