    The Surface Dial is a very useful tool when going through long documents and using it when I am drawing. Although there are a limited number of applications that it can be used with, if you are able to get used to those apps you will greatly increase your work efficiency.

    The device is sturdy, but likes to slide around. even with the sticky pad. because of this the device ends up not turning about half the time since the bottom just slides around. I have even tried cleaning the pad and nothing works.
