    Overall I really like the surface pen. However, I’ve only had it roughly a month (with light use) and I already need to replace the tip. This really displeases me! When I say light use, I’m talking a handful of time to try it out. I’d really like to be able to use it to take notes etc without having to replace parts so frequently.

    This is my first use of a Tablet Pen and I am still getting use to this. It feels good in the hand and my limited use so far leads me to believe it can have some great benefits. One point I would like to make. This was part of a promotion for a Surface Pro 8 keyboard with a charging and storage section. The pen included is not Surface Pro 8 rated and does NOT fit in the holder/ charging section of the keyboard.

    I really enjoy the weight of this tool and it is perfectly synced to my surface pro. No lag or extra lines popping up any where. You can use the regular tip or the "eraser" portion (if it where a traditional pencil). Easy to take notes as a student and convert to typed messages.

    Works great!! Very easy to set up. I just purchased this for my new Surface Laptop 4 and the set up was a breeze. Literally just held it to the screen and it pairs right up. Writing with it is a bit awkward as the screen isn’t a tablet but I imagine I’ll get used to it. The pen itself fits great in my hand. Overall would recommend.

    Love this pen. Took me less than a minute to sync it to my computer and it works so much better than a mouse! Worth the money. So happy I bought it just in case because I use it so much more than I ever thought I would have to.

    I was a little resistant in purchasing this product, for the fact that I was unsure of how often I would use it. Upon getting it, I prefer to hand-written notes on my Surface, rather than writing them out on paper or typing them. The experience is rather full of satisfaction and enjoyment, and I've absolutely loved having this as a companion to my Surface.

    Works Reasonably Well w/Only Minor Glitches

    The surface pen works reasonably well. However, it doesn't write EXACTLY where you aim. It's very close, though. One very nice feature about the Surface Pen is that the battery lasts forever. I use the Surface Pen for 4 hours per day, 4 days per week, and at that usage rate, I have only had to change the battery once in 1.5 years. One small complaint is that the color is not really "ice blue" as it appears in Best Buy's photo. The actual pen is just plain silver/gray.

    Writing appears at an angle

    The pros are the colors and ease of functionality. The cons are its compatibility with Microsoft Office (i.e. Word, Excel). I've noticed that when I write with this pen, the text would appear at an angle, even if I change the Microsoft certified tips. I still don't know if the issue is with the pen itself, the software programs, or both, but as long as I am able to write my notes and complete my projects, I am still satisfied.

    I had to purchase this Surface Pen to replace one that stopped working. Even after replacing the batteries and trying to repair it, I still could not get my previous pen to work. I read where quite a few users experienced an issue with their previous pens stopped working. Hope this one lasts. These pens cost too much money to not last as long as they should.

    Works really well with my Surface Go. It’s almost like writing pen to paper but only with the right apps. I’m a little annoyed that it picks up my hand touching the screen when I’m using the pen. I feel like if the pen is smart enough to switch the QWERTY keyboard to handwriting mode when the pen is actively detected that it should also be smart enough to disable all other things touching the screen. I don’t know if that’s a software issue of the Surface or the pen. Either way, that’s the only thing that doesn’t give the pen 5 stars.

    When I got my surface I decided I didn't want this product and I was going to go after market. Although the aftermarket one works well, the small things such as flipping over and erasing and smaller lines made it a great addition. Now this has some cons. Non rechargable less open but there's work arounds for everything. Had to add this to the art tool set
