I managed to loose my S-Pen out of my VZW Note 2 the same day that I got my phone.. Looking for replacements, I noticed that the Note 1 S-Pens can be had for cheaper..
I am not so cheap as to not buy the correct pen if there was a difference, but they look pretty much exactly the same.. And I would like to buy a few if they are the same.
So anyone have both versions of the Note that can fill us in on the differences? Will the Note 1 S-Pen fit into the Note 2? Any other differences?
From a previous posting about Spen pen kits, I believe both function the same but Note 1 and Note 2 pens are different size.
You may still be able to pick up a Note2 pen here for cheap:

if the coupon codes still work. I ordered the pen/eraser combo over the weekend and the coupon code was still valid for 50% off.

These are being shipped directly from China. Very likely counterfeits, even though the originals are produced in China.
I made the mistake of not finding out what sort of MHL connector the note 2 uses and got one inteded for use with galaxy s2 and the original note.
Would be needing an adapter so trying to find out the best solution.

They sell on Samsung site, and with the 50% off coupon it should be cheapest there.

Yeah if they weren't currently sold out.
They are in stock today. I was just able to put one in my cart. I had back ordered one, but when I got the email they were available I cancelled it. Now, I wait for the AllShare cast hub to be in stock.

Would a 3rd party adapter do all the Samsung one does? Or is it worth going official?

I bought a Gear VR for my Galaxy S7 and then upgraded it shortly after to accommodate the Galaxy S8+ and now I am getting the Note 8 Samsung decides to fleece us again with yet another new Gear VR version because allegedly the old ones won't be compatible. They haven't even made the new one available to pre-order outside the US yet either. So thanks again Samsung.
However... I am wondering if any of you have the older VR and a Note 8 to confirm if it does fit and/or work properly?? It would save me a hundred quid if it does
.
New VR for Note8 required
Sorry,
unfortunately you have to buy the new GearVR. The Note8 is simply too long for the old one.
Grumf
The 2016 won't definitely fit a Note 8, someone here needed to cut his apart with a dremel to fit the Note 8. For the 1st 2017 one that came with the s8, a lot of people have said that it fits, but it's a really, really, tight fit. It's probably on you on how comfortable you are squeezing your Note 8 in there every time you take it in or out, or it's worth $125 to get the 2nd 2017 version. In any case, as long as you get the phone in and lined up, all versions (2016, 2017-1, 2017-2) will recognize the Note and format the image perfectly to fit the field of view.

There are a couple threads in the discussion section devoted to this topic. In short, your S8 one will work fine.

Thanks, I did do a quick sweep of the Note 8 discussion sections but didn't find a definitive answer.
Thanks

It will work with the S8 version. I am using it now. It's definitely a tighter fit but works well. Don't know it it will do long term damage tho.

Yes, that's the 2016 version that you have to cut into with power tools
2017 s8/s8 plus one will work.

Verified it with the GEAR VR I got with my S8+...It works, the fit is real snug which is good... but it does work, no modification needed...

Excellent mate. Thanks for checking! You may have save me a few quid
..
Can confirm it DOES work, but its a really tight fit... tight enough, that I wonder if I either should whip out the dremel, or just buy the new version and sell this one.
I've heard that if you purchase the USB Type-C connector that comes with the Note 8 edition of the GearVR. It should make the 2016 and 2017 edition of the GearVR compatible with the Note 8. Just purchase the GH98-41582A adapter. Apparently it is deeper and the USB Type-C connector slightly higher up than that on the adapter that came with the 2016 and 2017 GearVR.
What version is the SM-R322? Will this work with the Note 8? Cheers

How did you get it to fit?? I would have to push the phone down really hard to get it to pop in but then I feel like I might break the charging port
.. or if we need the samsung $50 version?
You can find them on amazon for $13 delivered, and that would be a great savings!
You should be able to use whatever cable. If course Samsung still tell you theirs is better...
That's what I hoped,but we needed to have someone actually try it, in case Samsung had some cool inside the single that's detected by the phone.
I was able to use them with the Note 8, just no Dex
I have been looking at getting one or two of these as they work with the Switch too!

If you are getting a note 9, can you try your cable when you get it and post here if it works? We don't really need it on launch day, but we would like one at some point, since my wife and myself will have the note 9s
Hi
Does anyone have a usbc to 3.5 that works with the tablet? ( I have ultra)
I remember in galaxy s10 lite, i had bought 2. The one was expensive from Samsung. Neither worked. Samsung is doing something, i don't remember exactly but it has a microchip in the adapter in order to work. So it needs a specific one, from Samsung. I don't know which one will work in ultra, but it's going to be difficult to find out. It needs to be from Samsung.
Just grab the Google one it will be fine
This cheap adapter from Amazon works with my Tab S8 perfectly:
https://amzn.eu/d/cMo3yuz
You need one with DAC.
I also have another adapter that came with Xiaomi Pad 5 pro, but it didn't work with my Samsung Tab S8. The one above works with my Xiaomi and OnePlus.
