S-Pen delay

My husband sold his Galaxy S3 tab to this Kiosk stand at the mall over 6 months ago or longer cause we got new HP Chromebooks. I had an sold my Samsung Chromebook to a co-worker and mine had a slot for the pen which I had to sell with it. But my husbands they didn't ask for the pen and I found it when looking for something in this purse the other night. Will it work on our phone since it's so old and from the S3 Tab? Just wondering since I won't get my pen till the 16th and his case with pen will be here like the 2nd I think.

I'm interested in the question too, but I haven't found any clear evidence of the answer. Can you say where you got that information?
Reviewers on YouTube who have the device already have tried different s-pens and all of them work with the Ultra

I believe any EMR enabled s-pen should work with the Ultra. Including the pens from wacom drawing tablets. They all use a wacom digitiser in the screen.

Thanks, can you point me to an example? The reviews I saw either skipped the S Pen or else demonstrated the official new one. I couldn't find a video that showed anyone using an older S Pen.
 
Also Samsung at the unpacked event literally said it's compatible with all S-pens from all devices.
Are you sure? At 56:50 in the Unpacked video, they say the S21 Ultra's S Pen Pro, when it comes out later this year, will work across all Galaxy S Pen devices. But I didn't see any statement that S Pens from other devices will work with the S21 Ultra. If you saw that, can you point to where?
 
Every spen I have had works on any capable wacom Samsung device I've had. That's just about every Note and the Tab S4-S7. The pens have all worked no problem.

I am. I've also seen Flossy Carter pull the s-pen out of a Note 20 and use it on the S21 ultra.
 
I tried with my Note 20 Ultra pen, Tab S6 and S7 pen on the S21 Ultra demo and all 3 worked. Even gave the pen commands in the corner like the notes does. Here's a pic of me testing out the live messages with the Tab S7 s pen

Awesome! Does the S Pen button work too? (Like for erasing lines in the Notes app?)
 
Hmm, I'm curious if it's fine to just pick up an older note s-pen off Amazon or if having the new one gives any real extra benefit ?
 
If I bought one I have the s-pen from a Note 2 I would try. I have tried that pen with a wacom tablet and it worked and the wacom bamboo pen worked on the Note 2. So I think it goes all the way back as well.
