The best stylus phones of 2024: Tested and reviewed

Samsung’s Galaxy S23 Ultra is no longer the latest and greatest, but it’s still, undeniably, a contender for the best stylus phone that you can buy. That’s because the company made little to no upgrades in terms of the S Pen’s feel in the hand and software features this year. That’s a win if you’re hunting for a stylus phone that no longer costs as much as it once did. 

Like the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the S Pen on this model features 4,096 pressure levels, is filled with productivity features like off-screen memos and Smart Select, and is conveniently stored at the bottom of the handset.

Samsung’s Notes app, which is the core of the stylus writing experience, has also improved since the early Galaxy Note days. Now, you can collaborate with other users on the same document at the same time, and it’s never been easier to just drag and drop files and images into the note-taking app.

There were more subtle improvements that Samsung made with last year’s Ultra model a fantastic phone in general, like the large and less-curvy 6.8-inch display, the massive 5,000mAh battery, and a bump in base storage to 256GB, allowing you to store even more memos and files than before.
