Key features:

PDF annotation
S-pen/stylus support
Sync (preferably NOT just via Nextcloud...looking at you, Saber)
Handwriting recognition is a plus, but not required

As mention above, Saber fits the criteria well, but I don't use Nextcloud and that is the only sync available in that app (unless something has changed in the last couple of weeks). I have a Galaxy phone and tablet that both support S-pen and Samsung Notes is excellent, and free, but they're not exactly privacy concious, so I'm looking elsewhere. I had considered the Excalidraw plugin for Obsidian, but I'm not sure if that works on the Android version of the app.

Consider dropping your built-in sync requirement, and use Syncthing instead. It opens up your options.

Fair point, do you have any in mind?

Orgmode?

It can do S-pen notes?

My Note 4 died last year so I don't have any android suggestions, sorry. On Linux I like Rnote, but it's fairly early in development and I last time I wanted to annotate a PDF I had to do so in Xournal++
