If you want a compatible pencil for your Galaxy Tab A9 or Galaxy Tab A9+ (A9 Plus) Tablet, both the first or second generation, these pencils that we are going to recommend in this post will help you take notes or draw drawings.
Please note that the Galaxy Tab A9+ tablet does not support palm rejection, as the screen does not have EMR-compatible technology, allowing it to be compatible with Samsung Spen pens.
Therefore, you cannot use a Spen on a Galaxy Tab A9+.
So, in this post I will recommend the alternatives to be able to write large texts, lines, marks, geometric figures, underline texts or use the pencil to manage system options, open applications and in some cases to draw using recommended applications.
1. Active Capacitive Pens
These pencils require a budget of around 30 dollars, they offer you a better experience to make all types of basic drawings or to get started in the world of digital illustration, as you see in the video at the beginning of this Post.
The Rechargeable Active Capacitive Stylus Pen for Touch Screen Devices does not require installing any software, it can be used directly!
If you want to use the pen to take notes, you should note that they do not support palm rejection, so you will have to write without touching the screen. Only the pen should touch the screen to write or draw.
Pros+
- With palm rejection compatible for iPad.
- No linking required
- High fluidity
- Very comfortable
- Compatible with iOS and Android
Cons-
- Requires charging
- More expensive price than capacitive pencils.
In the video test at the beginning of this post, these active capacitive pens work well for making basic drawings, since the tip allows you to see the progress being made as the lines are made, which allows for greater fluidity.

2. Budget option: Stylus Ballpoint Pen Capacitive Disc Tip Stylus Pencil
If you want a pencil to take notes and make notes, the most economical solution for your Galaxy Tab A9+ Tablet is the disc-type capacitive pencils. These types of pencils have universal compatibility with any Android cell phone or tablet, iPad or iPhone.
Pros+
- Very cheap
- Diferent models
- Compatible with Android tablets and smartphones
- No batteries or charging required
- No Bluetooth pairing required
Cons-
- No palm rejection
- Without Pressure sensitive
- Without angle sensor
- Poor precision
Keep in mind that these pencils do not have palm rejection, so to write or draw, you always have to have your palm separated from the screen.
After many tests, the compatible pens for an Android tablet or cell phone are capacitive pens or disc-type pens.
These are the best options that have worked:
Stylus pen Macgle PZ0186
Stylus pen Macgle PZ0193
Stylus pen Aieach 3rd Gen
You will also need to purchase an illustrator glove, which will isolate your hand from the screen to avoid leaving annoying traces and dots and will prevent the app from crashing.
We recommend this pencil and glove kit if you’re on a budget.

Antifouling paint glove
Digital Artist Drawing Glove
What are capacitive pens?
Styluses simulate finger temperature and texture. They do not require charging and have various models. They are the most basic to start using on a tablet.
If you’re looking to make your tablet (or phone) easier to use, making it less of a hassle to touch small buttons and on-screen keyboards, a stylus might be just what you’re looking for. While they are not as smart as an active stylus, they can be very useful.
A capacitive pen simulates a touch from your finger using a rubber end or tip that activates the touch-sensitive points on your screen, so it requires no expensive parts and will work with any modern tablet that has a ‘capacitive’ glass touch screen. (this includes all big brand tablets sold in the last decade).
The main thing to consider when choosing a stylus is the size, weight, and tip size, as you may want a shorter or longer stylus depending on your needs.
