I got a Note 10 Plus from my dad but the Spen won't connect and I'm thinking that the pen isn't the original one. How do I know if it's a genuine spen?
It’s kinda hard to tell if it doesn’t work since replicas look identical to the original one. I would suggest purchasing one from a well known store.

Or maybe, considering the Note 10 Plus has not had a security update in over 2 years, and any Android system updates in over 3 years, maybe it's nearing its end of life and that could be the problem?
No, it doesn't work is new because the S Pen doesn't work. So is it an S-Pen problem, or is it a phone problem? My original answer still holds, the phone is so outdated that it's probably starting to lose functionality.
I've had note 10 plus 5g for 4 years and have gone through 4 s pens ... they almost need replacing yearly... new ones are 12 quid from ebay and have Bluetooth.. and hey you can even choose the colour.. my original was black but I got nice blue one. Also buy large pipe cleaner and brush down the pen slot. I wrap mine in a alcolic wipe with tape at the bottom
Also I found they last a bit longer to if you just leave air actions on... I think if you keep it charged to stimulate that capacitor inside the s pen less likely to die. Just my expereience
