Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good technology for all computer users highly recommended.

Bought for my daughter to use with their tablet, she loves it!

Really like the pen. IT is just what I needed. I like the magnet on the side of my book holding my pen.

This stylus pen for the Amazon Fire Max 11 is immediately ready for use as no pairing is required. Simply unscrew one end, insert the battery and one is ready to go. The quality and weight of the stylus feels very good. It's a good color match to the available keyboard cover and the Fire Max tablet itself. The stylus pen easily attaches magnetically to the side of the Fire Max tablet. I would have some concern that it could get knocked off inadvertently so separate storage might be a good idea if one is traveling or storing the tablet. Responsiveness is good whether it was scrolling and navigating the screen, or taking notes or drawing. A button on the side of the stylus allows one to delete text that one strikes through or scribbles over. I appreciate that the stylus comes with an extra tip and removal tool. Battery life is stated to be six months and is prolonged by a sleep mode feature. The price for this stylus is minimal and represents a good value as does the Fire Max 11 tablet. Those with children would surely find uses to bring out their creativity and learning while using this stylus.

Works ok for writing not the great drawing response.

Very nice to use especially when your trying to limit fingerprints.

Excellent Stylus!! Works anytime anywhere with out any issue connecting.

Bought the whole bundle as a Christmas gift for my wife. Seems very happy!!

We bought these for our grandchildren and they have not put them down.

No problems at all. Very precise and efficient. Works great.

IT not good as it should be but can not blame for 35

Tip too slippery................................. M

Item works well but is pricy. That's why I rated it 3 stars.

The Amazon Fire Max 11 tablet is Amazon's largest tablet, and a step up in the overall quality of the Fire tablet line. Because of it's 11 inch size, it is now at a point where other tools can be quite useful with it, in this case a stylus. The stylus is of good quality, not cheap feeling at all. It has a little bit of weight to it, especially with the battery, which I find makes it easier to feel as though you have good control of it. Using the stylus was not as great of an experience to me. I am accustomed to the Apple Pencil on my iPad, so this probably sets my expectations a little high. I didn't feel like this was a problem with the stylus itself, but rather the Amazon Fire Max 11 tablet and software. My biggest problem was how often my palm would interfere with the app when trying to use it, including causing a "swipe up" motion that would trigger the bottom toolbar where I can all too easily exit the app. In full-screen drawing apps that accept input from my fingers, I would make marks with my palm while trying to place my hand where I wanted to draw. I am not an artist and I generally just use a stylus to doodle or when using a coloring app. I also use it as a pointing device (going back to the old Palm device days), or for jotting a quick note or signing a digital document with my signature. However, I do work with creative apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity Photo, and Affinity Designer), so I find a stylus helps me have better control over detailed editing, and I use a Wacom tablet for these situations on my computer, and am accustomed to doing this on a tablet. The first time you use the stylus, the tablet will give you a tutorial about handwriting. However, it failed to cover a lot of techniques, and as a less experienced stylus user, I was left trying to figure out how to put a period at the end of a sentence and add a space where I needed one. The handwriting recognition was impressive however, and I also downloaded one of the suggested apps for artwork and was impressed with the accuracy and flexibility that the stylus had. Be aware, however, that the stylus uses a replaceable (not rechargeable) AAAA battery, so not something you are likely to have sitting around the house. It is supposed to last months with normal use. It also comes with an extra tip and a tool to help you remove it. The stylus is designed to be stored magnetically to the side of the Fire Max 11 tablet. As both the tablet and the stylus have a magnet, this makes for a very strong connection, but even with that, it can be easily knocked off it gets caught on something. There is also a button on the side of stylus. This is introduced in the software tutorial as a means to "backspace" when using the handwriting feature - it deletes out the character to the left of the cursor. I suspect this button can be used for other applications as well, but as such, you need to hold it according to your need to access it in order to avoid pressing it unintentionally. Overall, I rate the stylus as very good, but I think it's performance is a bit limited by the software experience on the Fire Max 11 device. This is something that can be improved on to make the stylus a much better experience.

I was excited that Amazons cheapo tablets had added support for a dedicated stylus, but it doesn’t cut the mustard.

pen does not work. i have to go to all the trouble of returning it. while i am fighting for my refund on a tablet order that was cancelled for delivery.

Works great when it works, but randomly disconnects at inconvenient times. Tried it with a new battery and the problem persists.

It uses (2) AAAA batteries. I could not have it recognized by my Fire 10 HD. I was told that it was compatible so I gave up and returned it.

Was tol by employee this would work on hp laptop it did not

This stylus pen for the Amazon Fire tablet is a fun an useful accessory. From doing fun little doodles to signing a document, I have enjoyed using the stylus pen with my Fire Max tablet. The stylus uses a replaceable AAA battery, which can be good, unless you are out and can’t get to the store for a replacement. (You can always use the Fire Max tablet to order more at Amazon.) So far several hours in and I haven’t needed to swap batteries out as of yet. Once I put the battery in the device, my Fire Max tablet saw the stylus right away and walked me through a quick tutorial process on how to use it with the tablet. I found that to be so helpful! The stylus uses a magnetic connection to the Fire Max tablet to help with storing it when not in use. (I personally find the magnet isn’t too strong and I routinely knock the stylus off the tablet.) This stylus is quite nice and sleek looking on the side of the Fire Max tablet. It has enough weight to it when writing it feel natural and not cumbersome at all to use. I am not any type of artist, however I do find the stylus to be responsive enough for my small general usage. I think this stylus is a good addition to your Fire Max tablet!
