As somebody who owns all three of them and writing is the main purpose of using a tablet, s pen is THE superior pen. Hands down. If you love writing on a glass board with hard plastic go with apple. No real reason to use surface whatsoever. S pen feels like actual writing and the responsiveness of having that line coming instantly from the tip of the pen I am using is what I am talking about. Surface pen slim 2 is clearly lagging behind and you can just see it by using them side by side. Apple pencil 2 is better than surface pen slim 2 but you still glide on the glass. This video is seriously biased to Apple. Probably the person uses iPad all the time and got used to the glass feeling but unless you don't care about Apple taking your money with the hype and "design". Gotta go with spen if you actually want to enjoy writing

This is really a half-assed review. No mention of the fact some of them have erase function built into the back of the pen? Really the cheapest pen option is any of the smaller wacom pens, which can be had from as low as $10. Plus, wacom/samsung S-Pen is the only one of these options that doesn't require a battery & comes with the pen standard. Personally, for me as a note taker I will stick with either with the older Surface Pro Pen from the SP6 generation with replaceable batteries or a Wacom AES based device. I can use the pen as long as I keep finding AAAA batteries, which my local Walgreens sells. No need to replace the whole pen when the battery can't hold a charge.

On the Samsung side, you should have assessed the options from staedtler as well as the Wacom one stylus. These are some of the most popular alternatives and are 30 bucks a pop.

Also the review should have been done with the Tab S8 Ultra which is Samsung's largest and most powerful device and takes both drawing and note taking to another level given the screen real estate and best screen quality given super amoled deep blacks, etc.
