For When You Need A Stylus
Featured Topics
Despite being the most popular tablet computer ever produced, Apple’s iPad has a key flaw: it lacks a stylus for when your finger is either too tired or inappropriate for the work at hand. It’s easily remedied because there are dozens of third party pens available that work with it and other tablets. The ideal tablet stylus is responsive, mimics the feel of pen on paper and works equally well for drawing a map as navigating the system’s software. Some go a step further with a way to tether the stylus to the tablet and a clip for a shirt pocket to make it harder to lose. While they are vastly different beasts, these pens have one thing in common: they can make using a tablet much easier. For a more in-depth look at a few of the pens mentioned in this article, you may want to read this.
There is 1 issue with a stylus, done use one if you don't have a screen protector as they will scratch the screen. (happened to a friend who has a capacitive touch screen smartphone but needed something finer tipped to click on small links on some pages)
They also cant be made as thin as a resistive touch screen digitizer as the capacitive touch screen is not a high enough resolution to detect a very small tip.
Guessing the Crayola one does coloring...
It's not useless for people who take notes on tablets.
I bought the Wacom Bamboo pen three months ago and I have been using it quite a bit with my tablet. My inspection software is tablet based so there is a lot of box checking that I do in the software on a daily basis. My nib is now cracked and the metal is starting to come through the thin walled rubber. I will be heading back to the big box store I purchased it from and purchasing something else. Thank you for your review.
