Can I use a stylus and how well will it work? null

You can use only a Capacitive stylus, but NOT a digitizer stylus. The Capacitive is the one with the sponge thingy, not the plastic tip. It's the one thing that I am very disappointed with for this computer. If you want to use a stylus, I get a Think Pad instead of an idea pad.

I tried a couple of different ones I have and they both worked. I feel pretty safe in assuming that your's would work too. Take it into Best Buy with you and try it on the display model to be sure.

You can use a passive stylus (it basically acts like a finger but a little more accurate). There's no pressure-sensitive stylus like the Surface has.

You can use a standard capacitive type stylus to replace your finger like you might use on a smartphone or tablet. It does not use the type of stylus you might use for fine drawing or like the stylus pen that comes with the ThinkPad Yoga.

I just grabbed a stylus I use for my Android Tablet - Universal Capacitive Stylus Pen. It tracks and reacts well to the stylus. It is not set to register different pressures - That's the Yoga Pro 40 coming 1Qtr 2016.
