Another really useful feature is the ability to take notes without unlocking the phone. I use it to write shit down while I'm talking on the phone almost every day. I thought it was just another dumb gimmick when I first bought the phone, but I use it constantly. The S pen is surprisingly useful once you get into the habit of whipping it out. Even for what you save, I'd still say the S3 is the better option. Some users may prefer the wide-screen aspect ratio for its multi-tasking capability, but I don't think that sells it.

I can't really speak for the Tab A, other than it is inferior in every way. Performance on the tablet is snappy, even if you fill it with junk apps (like I tend to do.) The sound and video are gorgeous, and the battery life is absolutely stellar (I get 6-10 hours, depending on what I'm up to.

Both google and evernote have archival export options that let you download all of your data.

It is important to export them to pdf from time to time, as these web based applications may become unavailable in the future. If you want to keep these notes long-term, it is worth putting them in evernote or in google docs. You can unlock all the premium features for something like $1/month.

You probably won't end up taking notes with the stylus, but if you want to try it, my favorite app for pen input is called squid. I strongly recommend you do not buy the type cover. It is snappy and will run all the apps you need. If you are only taking notes, the Tab S3 will do perfectly. I bought it because I was enamored with the pen input, and the high quality 4:3 aspect ratio screen. Whoever wrote this either interpreted this patent completely wrong, the actual improvement is not about the user experience but the technically handling or this is a nonsense patent. Basically all drawing apps still allow you (sometimes deactivateable) to zoom and pan the canvas with your fingers and many notes apps (Squid even has this on top of its feature list on its Play Store Page) also allow you to use your finger as an eraser, just like described above. While technically the S-Pen layer (using Wacom tech) is a separate device from the touchscreen there was never anything preventing developers to access both at the same time (actually that seems to be the default behavior for apps). The same with using the S-Pen and your finger at the same time. Or to be precise, either they know that you are using a S-Pen including device, they wait until you start using the S-Pen to switch off finger input (Evernote for example does this) or they give the user the option exactly like described above (most drawing apps like Art Flow or Sketchbook but also handwriting notes apps like Squid). This is how S-Pen aware applications are acting anyway. Erasing is faster with your finger, so that part is then set as ‘finger’. > Imagine writing a memo with the S Pen, but you want to remove a letter.

My understanding is that some piece of software is swallowing the mouse scroll signals coming from the tablet and not passing them to the system.
