Most third-party styluses using EMR will also work. Samsung does not provide a list of officially supported first-party or third-party styluses. Third-party EMR styluses will often work, but you'll have to review their specifications for compatibility.

However, since the general technology is the same between many S Pens, the S Pens will work on many devices, allowing you to jot notes, access apps, navigate the web, and more. You may encounter limitations, however. For example, if your device supports gesture controls, an older S Pen may not work as well.
