The Galaxy note's pen is also quite weak. I tried the Lenovo Tab 2 and Galaxy Note 10 because I wanted to replace my notebook I bring to meetings, but I was left unsatisfied and I returned both of them. The Galaxy Note 10 requires some "training" to use, as the pen is not as responsive or sensible as a Wacom Intuos tablet, and the Samsung apps simply suck (Papyrus is the only Android drawing app I would actually consider). I write pretty fast, and I will definitely not slow down for inferior technology. The pen is also ridiculously small, which becomes a pain to use after a while. The good thing is that you can have several Wacom-compatibile pens that you can "steal" from other brands. I opted for a Toshiba tablet pen (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toshiba-GENUINE-Stylus-Tablet-PC-Pen-PA3316U-2ETC-/221317415231 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toshiba-GENUINE-Stylus-Tablet-PC-Pen...) because is much more comfortable to use. The pen from the Toshiba Exel Write also looks decent, but never tested it personally. The classic pen from the HP laptops is also "good enough", but it's not compatible. The Lenovo Tab 2 was quite similar, but the responsiveness of Win8 in general (compared to the Note) makes a lot of difference. The Tab 2 is actually much more close to what could replace paper. Both of these tablets also unfortunately lack tilt sensors, which would be nice to have for an artist. Like I said previously, I also own a couple of Wacom drawing tablets (intuos 5, several pens, a bamboo touch large, etc). If you have ever drew, you know that controlling pressure alone is not enough, tilt is very important. Nobody seem to have exploited the axial rotation yet, which I use a lot to control stroke size in addition to tilt while drawing lines with a soft pencil. My biggest put-off tough is still the glossy screen. Whereas I can doodle anywhere with paper, in any position; I had to slightly tilt the tablet to get the office light reflection off my eyes in so many cases. I'll stick with my notebook and Pilot DR 0.3 for some more months before re-evaluating again..
