Did you know that the Samsung stylish has a button on it? I wonder what that is for? Hmmmm...

The Samsung stylus on their Samsung Galaxy phone does not have a button on it, which is what I thought of . . . and it's just a stick with a point on it. It's the one that came to my mind. I just did not think about the one for their tablet. Sorry about that. The Samsung stylus in their latest phones has been in the news lately because it can be put back in the phone backwards and wreck the phone's stylus inserted sensor beyond repair. As a result, that stylus was on the top of my mind.

The button on the Samsung stylus for their tablet is an activate button. . . it acts like a mouse button. I've seen the Samsung stylus in action and it is nowhere nearly as functional as the Apple Pencil.

The Samsung can draw lines that are a pixel wide, you can use it to check boxes, drag and drop, everything you can already do with a finger, perhaps a bit more accurately. Whoop-de-doo. Unlike the Apple Pencil, it does not add another thing to more functionality.

Um... dude. I *own* a Galaxy Note 3 *phone*. I’m staring at the stylus. It has a button. Good thing you wasted all those words telling me something isn’t true that I can see is true with my very own eyes.
