I was wondering the same. I just placed an order for the Galaxy Book Flex 2 Alpha and was looking for a stylus that would work with it. The Galaxy Book Flex 360 Pro comes with a Pen so I’m wonder if maybe Samsung left out stylus / pen support for the Flexbook 2 Alpha to maintain the premium stats and price for the Galaxy Book Pro. I think the biggest challenges with pen / stylus support with Windows machines are 1) palm rejection which few Windows 10 Touch Screens laptops are designed to support and 2) stylus compatibility where some companies like WACOM has the ability to toggle the pen / stylus writing protocols within the hardware but still isn’t compatible with many Windows 10 2 in 1 , laptops. The only two machines that I have owned and used that have had true pen and palm rejection compatibility are the Surface Pro and the iPad Pro which, in my own humble opinion and arguably , the iPad Pro exceeds the capability of the Surface for most consumer and maybe even a large percentage (not the majority) of business users. Unless the S pen protocols and drivers are built into the Windows OS or they can be downloaded from the support sections of the Samsung.com technical support services, I am going to favor on the side of not being able to find a compatible stylus for the Samsung Galaxy Book Flex 2 Alpha. I hope I am wrong and someone from Bestbuy.com or Samsung will see this post and update my own findings and observations. Otherwise, I still think the Galaxy Book Flex 2 Alpha still feel ultra premium and I think sets the benchmark for screen clarity, portability and probably one of the better overall values in the 13.3 inch laptop segment. Finally, In my own opinion, HP’s pens / stylus and laptop compatibility tend to be better integrated than many other 2in1 laptop vendor brands. Good luck with your search for a stylus.
