    The first one I got may have been a lemon but good thing Best Buy was able to exchange it and it seems that the replacement was doing better holding the blue tooth connection where the first one was not. It's doing as designed. Good to use with computers having windows ink.

    I was skeptical about it's compatibility with HP spectre as I see all the mix reviews online. Surprisingly it works at 1st short right out of the box. Don't throw big money on OEM branded pens. This does all the job best way. I sketch and draw with this very easily.

    I bought this on a whim to see if it could work with my Lenovo Yoga. My Bamboo is incredible and has allowed me to have more freedom and creative expression. I don't have to type all the time and I can save my notes. It is also very easy to use and setup was a breeze.

    This stylus is a fun tool. I'm kind of new to using it. But I'm finding new uses for it as time goes on. It's very responsive and captures my handwriting accurately. The battery life is very good and it works well with Windows Ink apps like Sticky Notes, Sketch Pad, and Screen Sketch. I'd definitely buy it again. I also like to doodle but had gotten away from it in favor of keyboard input for most communications. But now I've re-discovered the artist in me. Pretty fun to experiment with the different colors, virtual pen and pencil tips, effects, etc. I'm glad I bought it.

    I have used other styluses. I find this one just a little laggy when I use it on my updated laptop. I have two years with my other stylist and I think it outperforms this one. Will be probably taking this back.

    Best buy recommended this product when I purchased my laptop, about one month ago. I did not purchase this stylus at first, but I did recently and it just adds so many more awesome features to my laptop! The accuracy is pretty good, and the point of the stylus (no idea what it's called) comes in different colors. Setting up the stylus was very simple. Make sure you keep note that this pen needs AAAA batteries. Great find!

    I don't know if my grandson figured out how to use this pen yet. I saw it demonstrated at store and it was great. If my grandson would of been able to get it to work for him I would of given 5 stars. I told him to call geek squad because I have the insurance too.

    Great product as expected from this manufacturer. Easy squeasy setup and Jimmy John's style of delivery. Up and running faster than a Jackalope with a coyote on his tail. Trying to get enough characters in this review. Hoping everyone is pleased. Highly recommended item.

    This is my first time using a pen and I love it. It is sometimes difficult to pair with my computer, but once activated it works great. Got it for my college math classes, but haven't had one to really put it to the test, but don't think I will be disappointed.

    This pen works and still works. It does the job. My only problem with the pen is its choice of button placement and battery life. I use the pen primarily to take notes (I'm a college student). The buttons on the side are a select and erase tool and the 'eraser' is a quick launch tool which you can remap to a select amount of apps on your device. Let me mention that I find the eraser button useless more times than not. With the limited amount of options to remap it to, it's not really convenient and subsequently useful. The side buttons are awkward to use. In order to click and hold the erase or select buttons, you need to curl your fingers in an awkward way that I find to be just uncomfortable. It's not deal-breaking, but just thought it should be known. Now the battery life: it's not great if you think a couple of months is too short. I haven't used enough pens for long enough to make a proper review about this, but the battery that came with the pen did not last very long. I would advise just investing in some (I forget which kind these take) batteries to last. There is no warning when the battery is going to die. It will start skipping streaks when writing which can be annoying if you don't have any spare batteries on hand. Some other notes: If you try to use the pen while charging the Surface, be careful if the Surface gets hot. The palm rejection gets all wonky and you start getting random lines when using the pen. Overall, it still feels nice to hold, the pen tip glides over the Surface's surface with ease (there's definitely less resistance using this pen compared to the Surface Pen by Microsoft), it has some weight to it, and is still ergonomically well designed.

    This Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus works great with the ASUS laptop that I bought. Easy to pair, and the click button on top is a nice feature to quickly access desired programs. It feels great in the hand and helps to keep finger prints off the screen.
