Stylus Pen, Active Stylus Pen Compatible for iOS and Android Touchscreens/Phones, Rechargeable Stylus Pen with Dual Touch Screen, Stylus Pencil for A-pple/Android/Tablet, 16.5CM,White

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This pen is awesome. Nothing to download and it can be used on all of my touch screen devices. I got this for myself and now my kids want one too. Would make a great Christmas gift for all the tech lovers. Value for money:It was around 20 dollars. Not the cheapest not the most expensive. And it was my favorite color purple. I am a single mom and I want to buy things that are nice and going to so the job, but not break the bank. This pen does just that.

It arrived fully charged and worked immediately with my Samsung Galaxy A9 Plus tablet and my Samsung Z Fold 3 phone. Love that it powers down when not in use and touching the base wakes it up. The magnetic function doesn't work with the tablet case I have, but that is not a deal breaker. It is longer than the Galaxy S Pen I have for my Z Fold 3, and the circumference is thicker, which I like. Comfortable to use and responses on the tablet screen is about 98%. I did have a lag touching the home or back buttons, but that could be attributed to the pen needing charged. Overall, I am very happy with this product and would recommend it. Delivery was fast the packaging was on par. It does come with this weird 2-finger glove thing which I guess keeps your hand from interacting with the tablet touchscreen when using the S pen.ADDENDUM: This pen stopped working on a regular basis several days ago. I don't know how it works on IPads, but on my Samsung Galaxy A9 Plus it's hit or miss. When it works, it's great. Problem is, it doesn't work more than it does. Having said that, it works all the time on my Z Fold 3, on both the outer and inner screens. My Samsung stylus doesn't even do that. For this reason alone, I am keeping this pen.

TL/DR: Great stylus! Use time is about 8 hours per charge, standby power is 47 days and still counting. Eleven pros, 7 cons, original post and 2 updates. Bottom line, great android stylus!! I definitely recommend it and will probably buy again in the future.************************************4 STARTS - UPDATE 10/3/24This is my final update, and I still really like this stylus.PRO #11The stylus has an amazing standby time. I set the second stylus aside right after my update a month and a half ago. I gave it a full charge first. Every few days I turn it on and use it for a minute. As of last night, it's held power for 47 days. I have no idea how long it would last now if I started using it. I'm going to wait and see how long it can hold out first.UPDATE to CON #2The battery life is not what I hoped. I routinely get about 8 hours of use before the stylus dies (I timed it's usage multiple times). That's not even close to the 10-20 hours of use they claim.CON #5The stylus doesn't always recognize that it's being used if it's just light taps. As a result, it times out and turns itself off while in use. Not terrible, but mildly annoying.CON #6The low battery power light doesn't usually come on at all. Instead, it just turns itself off. I can turn it back on and do a single tap, but that's it.CON #7The full battery indicator light has a tendency to come on before it's actually fully charged. I have to go by time, instead.************************************4 STARS - UPDATE 8/15/24Two days after my review, the seller reached out to me and offered a refund or a replacement. The replacement arrived only a few days later - two of them! And both were clearly new. This seller stands behind their product and had great communication. I really like this stylus and more strongly recommend it. Added a 4th star for amazing customer service.Update on CON #1 (below):Change the keyboard long-touch delay to longer decrease screen sensitivity slightly, and keep the stylus completely perpendicular to the screen for smoother writing. It hasn't completely stopped the double taps or skipping, but it's helped quite a bit. It'd be nice to be able to use the stylus at more of an angle for wrist and hand comfort.CON #4Comes with a too short charging cord. (I suffer from a lack of power outlets.)Update on PRO #5 (below):The texture is quite smooth but stops short of being slippery.PRO #9Having one flat side makes it easier to grip and control.PRO #10Works while plugged in/charging.I'm going to charge both new styluses tonight. I'll do another update for battery life when I have a chance to test it.************************************3 STARS - 8/7/24I am using this with my Samsung Galaxy S23 FE.The first thing to note is that I was NOT sent a new product. It had clearly been opened and repackaged, so I think it was a product return. Not cool, Amazon! All the components were there and with no obvious damage or defects so I decided to give it a try.CONS:#1. Doesn't write using Swipe well, at least on my phone. It double taps some letters and has a tendency to skip.#2. The battery is only lasting a few days. The pen has had a total of maybe 6 hours of use since I received it three days ago. I charged it to full (overnight) before I used it the first time. Today, it died shortly after being turned on. Maybe that's why it was returned?#3. There's no clip on it, which would be really nice to have.PROS:#1. The tip is coated so no metal makes contact with the screen. Less risk of damage.#2. Charging port is on the side. It's easier to position for charging and there's no end cap or cover to lose.#3. On/off control is on the end, not the side. I don't accidentally turn it off while using it.#4. The bright color makes it easy to locate.#5. The grip is extremely comfortable. It feels like a pencil with a tiny bit of extra weight at the back.#6. It works without any setup or pairing, and switches between android devices seamlessly.#7. The indicator light isn't too bright and I don't find it distracting.#8. Totally uncomplicated function. Nothing to remember, no secret combinations, settings, preferences, profiles, subscriptions, incantations, pixy dust, tribal rituals, spells, voodoo, or most ridiculous of all - terms and conditions. It's on, or it's off. Easy.This is a great stylus and I really like it. I purchased it mostly to play games and for everyday stuff, which it's great at. I'm not an artist so can't share it's drawing capabilities. I'll be exchanging this one for a NEW one, and will update on the battery performance. This pen isn't perfect, but it's so much better than most of them. It was worth choosing over anything cheaper I saw.

I’ve been using this rechargeable stylus for tap-and-drag tasks, casual gaming, and basic note entry on my Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra. At $20, it’s certainly budget-friendly, and the tap-to-power on/off and auto-sleep features work flawlessly—after a full charge, I’ve easily gotten around 10 hours of intermittent use before needing to recharge.However, that’s where the positives end. No matter the angle, the tip often misses by a millimeter or two, resulting in often jagged lines and imprecise strokes. Even simple handwritten characters come out shaky. In fact, I sometimes found my fingertip more reliable for accuracy-sensitive tasks. If you have a thick shock-proof case or a plastic screen protector in place, this pen won’t register at all—its capacitive signal can’t penetrate the extra layer, so you’ll need to remove the protector or upgrade to a glass one.

Unfortunately, this product did not work for my older iPad. However, I'm giving it 5 stars because of the excellent customer service. I received an e-mail asking about the product and I replied that it did not work for my 10 year old's iPad (2017 iPad Pro model A1701). The following day I received a nice message and a refund and no need to return. This was especially wonderful because my 10 year old paid for it with their own money. Thank you!

After buying 5 stylus for my Daughter, this one works perfectly with her iPad. She loves the tip sizes, drawing is very easy, and great price.

Absolutely love this pen!! Didn’t want to spend tons of money on a true apple pen and this one works amazing!! It’s super light weight, a great price, has grips for your fingers so it’s comfortable to hold with out the stress of getting blisters or anything from lots of work!! The stylus tip is just the right size and even comes with extra tips in the package!
