I heard the accuracy is slightly off for the 2014 ed.
I have the spen with eraser and I can confirm that it's slightly off centered.
I filled the tip down to have it more precision.

Filling the tip down will do absolutely nothing. Don't believe me? Get yoru spen out, press it into your finger and then slide that same finger over the screen (finger nail touching the screen). The pen will still write. It's the depression and location of the pen, not the "tip"

There is another thread here where several users found that filing down the other end of the nib (not the bit that touches the screen) brought the pen closer to the screen. When the S Pen is vertical this makes no difference and all the alternative pens seem to work fine. However, when the pen is held at an angle, the slightly different length means the digitiser registers the location of the tip offset from where it really is.
It's true that it doesn't matter where the actual tip touches the screen but it does matter where the electronics in the pen are in relation to the tip.
No other thoughts. I got an S-Pen with Eraser off of Amazon for about $15. It works fine, is a much better size in the hand than the included S-pen. It is similar to a bic pen in both size and quality.

According to this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2484014 thread, none of the 3rd party styli really works properly. Only the genuine Note 10.1 2014 Edition seems to work without an offset.
You may not care about a 1mm difference between where the tip of the stylus is and the point where the touch registers, but it would drive me mad.
