I have just begun to use the Bamboo, but it works well with Microsoft ink and has a natural feel.

This brand is easily the best. Works great with my new HP Spectre. The added functionality it allows through Windows Ink is awesome! Even at a higher price point is very much worth the cost.

I highly recommend this stylus. It's light and ergonomic. It's shortcut buttons are programmable and very useful. It also comes with 3 additional tips that can be easily changed. The only down side is that the tips seem a little hard and worried me that they may mark up my screen, but I had bought a screen protector for my laptop to be safe and so far they have not scratched or marked that up at all

I like this pen, it is easy to use on my HP Spectre x360. The only problem is the design. I broke off the top switch when trying to open the pen to install the battery. Some duct tape fixed it, but the design is flawed when something as common as changing the battery can break the pen that easily.

The stylus has a good build quality, good hand feel, and decent design. The triangle shape feels good in the hand and the 4 different tips feel good on any screen I've encountered. The Build quality gets a B- from me because the soft touch paint on the outside is already coming off, 1 month after purchase, and the battery holder screws in at the top and is impossible to put on without feeling like I am taring up the guts of the stylus. The design is OK but I wish the eraser was at the top of the pen like on the surface pens. I can definitely say that the side button eraser is easy to get used to but i find myself spinning the stylus around in my hand looking for it when i really need it or not pushing hard enough or pushing the lower button and selecting rather than erasing. Overall I give it a B.

Easy to get started with this, worked right out of the box. Using with a Microsoft surface, have had for a few weeks and no issues with anything to date.

This is a great stylus. It’s responsive, feels good in the hand, and has a bunch of options. But it isn’t the greatest available across all platforms. The Apple Pencil is a better experience on my iPad, which is pretty disappointing since they cost about the same, and the Pencil is rechargeable.
Still, it’s the best PC option, and it’s not bad at all.

I really enjoyed the flow of the stylus and how it relates to a real pencil or Pen including the diffrent nibs to it.I enjoyed the clip on it so i could easily place it on diffrent places.Although i gave it four stars was not because of the quality but from the nibs,since there were no slimmer nibs to make it feel like a sharp yet slimmer feel but i do still enjoy the other choices of nib.I also really disliked haveing to take out the batterys everytime i finished using it since the first time they were left in and the battery had died out,so we bought a pack of two batterys but supriseling costed a lot more that a pack of other batterys.I hope there will be many more features in the future!
Thank you

Honestly, I didn't know this product existed until today. To my surprise this is a Wacom Active Stylus with 2046 levels of pressure sensitivity, meaning that all AES and MPP Windows devices are perfectly compatible. I purchase it for my Lenovo Thinkpad 14 and it worked perfectly out of the box; however, the user's manual recommends pairing your device with the stylus through Bluetooth. This active pen includes a set of three different nibs and one quadruple A battery. I'm really happy with this purchase and I recommend this pen to all the note takers and artists out there looking for an excellent stylus for their Windows tablets and 2 in 1's.

I have to go to training once a year for my job and I always take notes in a notebook and then type the notes to have them in my laptop. With this Bamboo pen, I can write directly in my laptop and then transfer the notes to typed text. The pen works great. The only reason for the 4 star and not 5 star, is the pen takes a 4A battery, and at the time the pen needed a new battery, Best Buy didn’t carry those batteries. Why would you sell a product and you don’t carry replacement batteries for the product you’re selling? Had to find a specialty battery store when I was traveling for one of my training events.

Decent pen for windows applications. I have an Apple Pencil for my iPad Pro and I think the Apple Pencil is a superior pen/Pencil but definitely gets the job done. I have experienced some glitches with the multi function buttons but not a problem for me as I don’t really use these.

This pen works great and is everything it is supposed to be when using. I really like that I can use with almost any application. Works well with my HP Specture x360. Only downside is the battery life. I put it in my backpack with all my other ink pens. I guess from other reviews I have read is that whenever there is pressure on the tip or button on the back, it turns on the pen. So I started to take the battery out when I am not using it and we will see if that helps.

It was a little tricky at first in trying to remove the pen nibs but after a little trial and error and reading the instructions (over and over) finally got it. Like writing with it on the laptop and using it for general clicking with laptop in 'tablet' mode
