The stylus was such a good idea that I came back for the second one.
I misplaced the one I had and I didn’t want to think about not having one so I bought another and wanted to be sure it was the same one. Now if I can’t find one than I have one to use and eventually I run across the other than that’s good but I don’t have to sweat it.

Great stylus at an excellent price. I use it for a job where i'm outside in the cold and it works better than taking off a glove to use smartphone. Highly recommended. The charge holds well too for the battery

I tried this product and it does not have palm detection so everytime your hand hits the screen that is marked as an input. returned it and went with an adonit.

If you can't afford/use the Apple Pencil, buy this

I have an iPad Air 2. I want to be able to draw. This stylus does the trick! It works with several apps on the iPad and it's fairly accurate. I say fairly because it isn't the Apple Pencil which is the most accurate stylus. Sadly, it won't work on a non-Pro iPad. Buy this stylus. You have two weeks to try it out. If you don't like it, return it. But I think you'll end up keeping it. Enjoy!

I used this in photoshop on my phone, much easier to get precise control than a regular stylus. It feels comfortable in the hand.

Not bad if you don't need precision, not worth $$.

It seems to be a good stylus if you want a product that will actually work when used. However, this was purchased for an art program that required precision and detail, which it did not deliver. It does eventually do what you need it to faster than a less expensive stylus, but the lag and lack of precision is still an issue. For the price, you should expect the pride of owning a high end stylus, but I really don't think you are buying much more.

I’m happy with this purchase though I’m still new to digital drawing. I’ve been able to pick up short cuts and the learning curve is pretty easy. Overall I believe this was a good investment and I look forward to making cool designs!

Great pen. Was purchased as an alternative to the Apple Pencil. We only needed it to capture client signature on the iPad and this met the need. Battery life is great.

I was so glad that I got this for my iPad Pro. It works perfectly. The one con was it didn't fit in the compartment in my tablet fir safe keeping but other than that glad I didn't spend the extra money on the other ones.

Purchased this so I could have fun with my new iPhone X and be able to take notes of inventory items. Works good but only drawback is the apps to choice from are the best and none of them get great reviews plus not all are free

I love my new stylus. Battery seems to last long, haven't charged it in 3 days and still works fine. I'm using it for my IPhone 7, and Surface Pro 4. Works well. Haven used it for drawing, but for everything else it does the job.

This works really well better than expected but still not as well as the Apple Pencil it is precise enough but not as pressure sensitive, overall still worth the purchase as long as you're not using it on an iPad Pro

The size of the stylus is great however it does need to be charged for use. It would be great if the stylist did not require charging and you could simply pull it out and use it whenever you need it.

It was difficult to find a fine point stylus that worked with Apple devices. The regular rubber tip styli were wide point, which didn't work for smaller screens or for tasks that required more accuracy. This one is great for everything we need to use it for. Also has some other functionality that we haven't even gotten to. Only caveat is that it's expensive for a simple device.

Ok stylus buy APPLE PENCIL

I have an Apple Pencil that I love however I was looking for a secondary stylus that wasn't white and had a clip on it. (The only shortcomings to Apple Pencil in my opinion)
The Bamboo Fineline is an adequate writing instrument however the battery life is lacking, ergonomics are clumsy and it couldn't match the speed at which the Apple Pencil operates.
My 2 cents - just spend the extra 20 bucks and get the real thing.
