cheap stylus for Cube Mix Plus?

[Hugh]

I just bought a used Cube Mix Plus and would like to dabble in stylus use.  So I want an inexpensive EMR stylus.

Good styli can be either side of $100.  But I understand that at least older Samsung s-pens are EMR and I can find a quite inexpensive clone s-pen for a very low price: https://www.amazon.ca/Phoneix-Replacement-Samsung-Verizon-T-Mobile/dp/B079HVJ9L7/

Does anyone know if the Samsung Galaxy Note 5’s s-pen is EMR?

Unfortunately, EMR is also that acronym for Elector-Magnetic Radiation, so googling for a phone + EMR gets a completely different set of hits

This seems to suggest that the Galaxy Note 5 uses an EMR digitizer: https://www.reddit.com/r/stylus/wiki/index

Another trouble with s-pens is that they are small so that they can be stored in a silo within a phone.  I think that also means that they are awkward and they don’t have an eraser.

Any recommendations for an inexpensive but nicer EMR stylus?

Yes the same Samsung stylus’s work, but not as good. Why not get the original stylus Cube sell. It’s the best for the model.

Hmm.  Somewhere I have a stylus from a ThinkPad X61t that should work.

Thanks for your advice.  I may not be able to find that stylus.

Correct stylus?

I just received original Fujitsu Lifebook stylus, which is rebranded Wacom UP-815E. Same as UP-817E recommended above, it has two buttons and works pretty well, so I can certainly recommend it.

I bought it in original packing from Ebuy for 15 bucks here, but you can get one even cheaper from China if you don’t mind a device with unclear origin without original packing. I have seen them as low as six bucks…
