I still use a Note 9, it's so far the biggest phone before they start getting smaller in the "newer" versions, and also has my mandatory stylus built in.

However it's starting to get slow and old now, and replacing parts is about as expensive as just the entire phone. What was it like moving from Samsung to the stylus24?

I really only ever use my stylus for the smart select and swipe to text, so I'm curious how the Stylus 2024 works

Honestly, not much of a difference. Default android is a bit more annoying, and the secure folder is inferior. The cameras are decent. It's a solid phone, and the stylus is pretty decent for notetaking. I use my stylus for grocery lists. The headphone jack and SD card is awesome. The screen and processor are great, and the battery is way larger AND charges faster than my s9 or my z fold 4. The stylus is about the same as the z fold stylus.

The phone is pretty solid as an all-arounder. For $250-450, it's hard to have any complaints.
