You'll have some different options on how to replace your Samsung Galaxy Note S Pen.

  1. First, retrace your steps and take one last look around to see if you can locate your S Pen.
  2. Remember that you'll receive a notification if your S Pen is too far from the Bluetooth connection.
  3. After receiving this notification, be sure to put your Samsung Galaxy Note S Pen in its place when you're done using it.
  4. If all hope is lost and it's time to replace your Samsung Galaxy Note S Pen, start by considering your options.
  5. Those who have a Galaxy Note 20 will experience improved latency if you buy a replacement directly from Samsung or Amazon.
  6. If you're using a Note 10 or simply looking to save a few bucks, you can opt for a Galaxy Note 10 S Pen instead.

As you can see, there are few different ways to go about this. While it would be ideal to never lose or damage your S Pen in the first place, accidents happen. If you don't want to compromise on your S Pen experience, it's always best to buy the model that goes with your Samsung Galaxy Note.
