I have a HP spectre x360 brand new which I used this e-pen and it constantly doesn't detect the pen strokes which makes it barely usable.

I bought this to replace the Dell Active Stylus that I had been using with my HP Spectre X360 13t. The Dell stopped working, so I bought this one. It works decently well. Tracking is good, and pressure sensitivity is decent. It's no Surface Pen, but it works well. I'm happy with it.

The tip is spring loaded and we find it too stiff. Hoping it will smooth out over time but after 1 month, it is mainly an unused accessory. The x360 we purchased it for also does not have a place to store the pen. I would only recommend if a pen is needed.

It's a great bag. I wish it had more interior pockets for my specifics, but that's just me. Most users would probably think it has plenty. Nice and light weight too. Hopefully it stays "clean" in the long run.

Good but loose nib

This is decent addition to HP spectre accessories, but it's an incomplete product as its nib is loose and sometimes it does not detect the writing. Also, I had hard time in easily finding AAAA batteries for this pen.

Only really for a tablet. Writing not any better than your finger, drains the battery way fast, not magnetic to my pavilion 360

Good for only X360. If anything I blame Microsoft for some of the short comings these pens might have. Either restart the application or the computer to get everything back on track.

I bought stylus to use with my hp hybrid pc tablet. So far it works great. It started working on its own straight out of the box. Use it for drawing and some writing.

This is a new tool for us. Just a beginner using the stylus. Best Buy linked the products together, and we are ginding it easy to use... Even for a "non-geek" guy like me!

The pen is convient when I want to be in tablet mode and not touch my screen with my fingers. However, as someone who is not an artist of an sort, the pen is kind of useless.

This product was recommended to me for a new laptop. To my dismay, the laptop we bought doesn't support this stylus. So, I have no idea if it's any good.
Sorry

Did as much research as possible to determine which pen would work with my recently purchased HP Pavillion 360. Although the HP chart online shows this pen as compatible, it did not work. Returned to Best Buy for a full refund. Currently, penless...

Set up is easy and it writes very nice. The only thing I wish it would do is let you know the battery level. It is still worth the purchase and encourage you to try it, you will like it.

The stylus works great. It really gets the detail. My daughter uses it for her digital art and loves it. Cons, it is a little bulky and heavy in the hand. The battery is hard to find.

I am using this with a Surface Pro. As indicated in the description, it allows me to "write", highlight, draw etc. on the screen. I find that a stylus is more responsive than a mouse.
