The new circuit boards have a large-size switch with an improved eject mechanism to let users safely eject the S Pen when it is inserted in a wrong position.

Previously, if you were taking notes from your S-Pen accessory and you inserted the accessory back into the device incorrectly (incorrectly means inserting the flat head first with the tip sticking on the outside), that function might no longer work for you.
Phablet owners will finally be able to put away their S Pens without worrying about them getting stuck. Samsung is all set to introduce two new features which will change the way we perceive it – Vivid Photos to counter the Live Photos, and Pressure Sensitive Display to counter the 3D Touch. The company already changed the packaging to remind consumers the proper way to insert the Galaxy Note 5. In doing the latter, the pointing device would typically get stuck, which upon managing to wriggle it free, would invariably break an internal component necessary for detecting the when the stylus is and is not stowed inside. Said to be a true productivity enhancer, the Galaxy Note series has multitasking abilities and has enhanced S-Pen capabilities. Given this prominent placing, there’s no way that a customer could say that they weren’t forewarned about the possibility for damage to their Galaxy Note 5.
But then again, Samsung might also choose to sell the older Note 5 variants at a lower price, with the warning included, while the newer Note 5 models go for a higher price.
As always, readers are advised to take the reported Samsung Galaxy J1 2016 specifications and release date with the proverbial pinch of salt as the South Korean tech giant has not confirmed any information so far.
