Has anyone else had issues with using their S Pen and a screen protector? The pen doesn't move smoothly across the screen like it did prior to installing the screen protector.
 
When I first put on the Verizon branded screen protector I did notice that the s Pen wasn't the same. When I tried to draw a line going across the screen, it wouldn't register a straight line, more like a series of disconnected shorter lines. I thought that i wasted money and was going to take it off but decided to leave it on to see if things changed. And it did. After a day or two it's back to like it was when I didn't have a screen protector; nice and smooth. Not sure if the tip of the s Pen had to get "used" to a screen protector or not, but it works great now.

Heck, since I couldn't find a case I liked for a couple of weeks I left the plastic on the screen it shipped with & it worked fine. Now it's got the Verizon cheap protector and as far as I am concerned it works fine for $10.
 
I am using a cheap clone Tempered Glass for $8.55 free shipping. S Pen works perfect, and the glass protector is perfect too... ;)
 
I have not had any issues with the ones I got from Ebay.

Basic generic plastic ones.

I am finding out that most problems with screen protectors are about 98% user error/bad installation, and I don't think any of them stop any operations.

I had a Spigen, and returned it, from what I know now, most likely I installed it wrong.. You do the installation correctly, IMO, they all will work.

I had one on my first Samsung Galaxy S3, and really liked it. I didn't like the fact that it was $45, which is why when I lost my S3 I never got another tempered glass screen protector.
