Q: Will this stylus work with HP Envy X360 2 in 1 notebook 7th generation Intel processor 16 gigs ram 1 terabyte HD drive 15.6 display

A: No, this model is not compatible.

Q: From my understanding is that this stylus only works with the 2015 Spectre X360 and not the 2016 model, is this true?

A: I'm not sure about any other models but I bought it to be used with the HP pavilion x360. It's a Christmas gift for my daughter but I did try it out to make sure it worked before wrapping it. I am happy to say that it works!

Q: Would this be compatible with a Microsoft surface pro?

A: No, this product is not compatible with the Microsoft Surface PCs.

Q: Does this pen only work for HP computers or can I have it pair with my Lenovo Yoga 710? I recently bought the Bamboo Ink pen but it, apparently, doesnt work on the mentioned computer so im just trying to find a pen i can exchange the Bamboo pen for.

A: Thank you for reaching out! We have a few different pens... There are three main standards for pen support. This pen uses Synaptics technology. The bamboo is Wacom. The other main model and what is typically used on most newer models is Microsoft. HP makes pens that work with each of those standards.

Q: Will this stylus work with HP Pavillion X360 2 in 1 notebook 7th generation Intel i5 processor 8 gigs ram 1 terabyte HD drive 15.6 display model 15-bk193ms?

A: The HP Active Stylus is compatible with HP products that have the Synaptic touch controller. The HP Pavillion X360 2 in 1 notebook uses this controller as well as other models. You need to check your specific notebook to see which touch controller is installed.

Q: Does HP not make this stylus anymore? It is sold out on Best Buy and it is no longer on the HP Website.

A: The active stylus is still available from both hp and best buy. There are 2 versions on best buy and a few more from hp. I bought mine from best buy about a month ago.

Q: is it compatible with the spectre 360x 2016 versions?

A: Yes, this stylus is compatible with Spectre x360.

Q: Hello Will this stylus work in a HP Elite x2 1012 G1 under Windows 10 Enterprise (1709) Thanks :

A: undefined

Doesn't work as well as other styluses
I bought for use with the HP Spectre x360. HP has done an excellent job on the design and functionality of that laptop -- I am really pleased with it. :) Anyway, despite initially reading some negative reviews about the HP active stylus, I bought anyway since it was the HP brand. However, as other reviews mention, I had the same experience of requiring excessive pressure in order to write on the screen. As eluded by some other reviews, the Dell Active Stylus for Dell Tablets (750-AAGN - rev 03) worked much better on the x360. I bought one of these as well to compare, and the sensitivity was significantly better, and never cut-out like the HP stylus would. I ended up returning the HP active stylus (for store credit -- thanks Best Buy allowing past the 14 day return policy), and I am much happier with the Dell stylus -- model 750-AAGN. Palm rejection and variable pressure sensitivity all work really well on the HP Spectre x360 digitizer touch screen.

Works, but a bit expensive
I'm not sure why this stylus is quite so expensive. It does what you'd expect it to do and there are in fact active controls, but I sometimes felt like I had to push harder than I'd expect, and I still saw gaps in lines I drew using my HP Spectre X360. I'm not sure whether the laptop or the stylus is to blame, to be honest, but for this price, you'd expect it to work better with the machine it appears to be built for.
