    I'm and artist and I was looking for something I could use on the go. Based on the description I thought maybe this could be my answer, but honestly, you can do literally ANYTHING better with your finger than this pen. I tried every program, every tablet and phone in my house, and every setting or trick in the book. I drew the same drawing the same way, left with stylus and right with my finger on my samsung phone. This is what I got. The stylus makes it look like I have tremors. Terrible tracking and it's always off, but not consistently where I could possibly correct it in settings. I emailed Sahara first and asked what I could do to fix this (and attached the same image). They said return it to best buy. So I did. I'm sorry but it's way too expensive to be worse than just using your own hand. Only thing I can say is it really did "write" on all devices I have (except my actual Wacom tablet). But it showed the same issues on every device. Wish it weren't so. Was very disappointing.

    This stylus pen is exactly what I was looking for! It's lightweight, easy to use and works like a charm with my Samsung Tablet. I love the fact that it doesn't require pairing and I was able to start using it right out of the box. Another thing I love is that it comes with a storage case, so I'm able to take it with me while on the go!

    This stylus pen is amazing! My kid is an amazing artist and draws a lot and she got a tablet for Christmas and a stylus pen, but she didn't like it, so we got this one and it is perfect! She can draw, color, write, etc. and loves how well it works! It also works great on my phone (Note 8), so if I lost the one that came with my phone, I could use this one. It's very well made, durable, and easy to use! I would definitely purchase again!

    I am a fan of gadgets in all forms and this stylus is a great addition. It comes with a micro usb charging cable and a pouch for safe keeping while traveling. I found it very simple to charge and it worked well with my phone. I had no issues with sputtering or connectivity issues. I love the simplicity and ease of use.

    Works perfectly with my daughter's Galaxy Tab A! (2016 model) It also works (on or off) on her LG Stylo 4 and my Samaung S9+! It's lightweight and has a pencil feel. She is happily drawing now! So glad it works!

    I would say it is great and works to draw with but if you have a screen protector on your tablet, it is kind of hard for the tablet to pick up on the stylus. It doesn't do anything else than that and is a bit expensive for what it does.

    This pen does the job, and it does it better than the bargain brands for sure. It's slightly off in precision, but unless you're using it to make intricate drawings it won't be too noticeable. If you're an artist though... steer clear and opt for a slightly more expensive version that won't come with the headache of your lines appearing slightly in another place than where you touch the pen down on the screen.
