Hope this is helpful guys! I couldn't find a video of the tip being replaced on the S6 Lite pen, but know that not only is it possible, it can be done relatively cheaply!

Thank you very much! I'm getting my tab S6 lite soon and I was worried about the S-Pen tips! Now I feel relieved, thanks!

[edwardrecord]

Thanks so much, I use this tablet for drawing on my architecture degree so my nib is basically shot after 6 months of hard daily use. The guide to the product and reassurance that it still works is amazing! Thanks 😃

My s Pen had worn out pretty quickly so I bought a replacement kit.
I was surprised by how easy it is, pull the old tip out, slide the new one in, and then it's done, works perfectly even though it is indeed a little more slippery than the rubber tip but nothing you can't get used to.
( I got my tips of Amazon for 9 euro : pack of 5 tips)

Thank you. I have a S6 Lite and now that I started school again, I finally use the S pen more often, and the nibs came to mind. Just ordered. Thanks a lot.

OhthankGod
I've only had my S6 Lite for about two weeks and I noticed the nib in the S-pen was further out than it was when I first got it..Turns out it's also splitting...thank you so much for making this video!

[ahmedmohsin]

....finally, its nice seeing a practical video of the s6 lite pen replacement.
I suggest u share this video also in the samsung table reddit.
Might help someone over there and get more views traction

Thank you brother. I use Samsung S6 lite and was scared while using the S-pen more often.
Now my problem is solved.

[Celldweller]

I'm a little disappointed by Samsung... no replacement tips in the box and it wears out so quick! I drawed 6 to 7 pictures and the tip was done... I didn't press hard nor did I used it wrong... disappointed!

I broke the tip accidently but didnt find replacements in the box. i went to the store i bought the tab s8 from and they couldnt help and said u have to buy a new pen. I went to samsung store and no nibs. Thanks for this video, very weird that samsung doesnt sell nibs or doesnt consider that the nibs can wear out or break... used to like spen more but now after all this apple pen is more reliable

[bwedges]

OMG YES. thank you so much for this video. Mine started fraying on the tips when I look at it with a macro lens on day 3. I draw on it a lot as an artist and even wacom pens sometimes get destroyed by me. This video gave me a huge peace of mind, Im going to order the nibs right away.

[LeighBogdany]

Thanks for the assist! I ordered a replacement, which came with additional tips. I was able to use one of the tips on my broken S-Pen and now have a spare!

[thesillyinme]

Thank you for this tutorial. I was able to replace the broken tip of my daughter's S6 Lite pen. More power to your channel!

[djigi]

If anyone is facing a problem like a tip is broken and the back is still stuck in the pen itself. Then get a safety pin, heat it, and then insert the safety pin in the pen and hold it for some seconds and slowly pull it out, the broken tip will surely come out.

This video is such a relief!
Thanks mate!
Getting my s6 lite next week!

[bbybackfat.dragoaloubeat]

Thanks for this! You saved me over $50 saving my s pen. :)

[sumaiya]

OMG thank you much for this video ! i litreally have been contemplating about whether my purchase of the S6 lite tab was worth it or not due to my high note taking activities and S pen not having replacement nibs, which i did not know before purchasing :)

[OllieBurtonMed]

Hi everyone, thanks so much for the positive response. I'm getting a lot of questions asking whether different tips from different S-pens will work with different tablets. The short answer is that I have absolutely no idea - the point of this video was to demonstrate that THIS SPECIFIC combination is possible. I cannot answer questions relating to any other combination of S-pens, phones or tablets.

[theprogrammersworld]

Do you use any screen protector? Does the s-pen leave some scratch on screen?

Replacement s-pens, nibs, and tools are readily available on ebay, reasonably priced. But... be careful to get the nibs for your s-pen. Not all s-pens, and not all their nibs, have been the same. I've been using s-pen since the Note 10.1 2014 version. Samsung *really* needs to up their game tremendously when it comes to their s-pen and nibs replacements. It's up to you to search, and have some trials and errors. Customer Service is utterly zero help in getting nibs. Sometimes new s-pens are available from Samsung; I've never been able to find nibs from them. And old s-pens are unavailable. It's easy, as well, to be sold "original Samsung" via third parties, and find that they are knock-offs. I really like the Samsungs and s-pen features, but the lack of certain, easy s-pen and nibs replacements has gotten to be very close to a deal breaker for me at this point in time. Hate sayin' it, but iPad pencils, tips, and decent knock-off pencils are abundant and reliable.
