Nice pen for touchable laptop and tablet ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wacom, often hailed as the only option for artists who want to draw. Unfortunately they've not had a great track record for me and if you look around at artists on who have the big 22/24 inch display tablets that cost thousands- you'll see they have a consistent problem. Or their mobile studio pro's that self-destruct with battery bloat, nice for a $2-3k device. I've had 5 products by wacom, each with their own problem. One tablet just died. Another the power switch slipped and customer service answered zero emails. Here we are again, problems. ANYWAY, about this pen: So, this pen then. My cousin got one it was defective. Medium speed, straight lines write like a seismograph. He returned it and got one that worked. Cool. I tried it out and liked it more than my current pen so I figured I'd grab one for myself. How does it work? It writes like a seismograph when doing straight, medium speed lines. Before you think "Well maybe your hand is shakey, try some stabilization!" Nah, I got the gen 1 version of this and it draws fine. I do fine on several tablets with various pens. Even when stabilization is applied with this pen? It's still unusable for art. It's clearly defective, I'm not sure how bad the spread is, but 2/3 pens is not a great sample size but it's also not a fun experience. So, basically if you want this pen or you need a Wacom stylus & this is the option you got? Bring your laptop/tablet to the store, test the pen after buying by doing a few slow/medium speed lines and if it works, grand! You'll probably be set as when it works it feels really nice. But I'm seeing 2/3 bad pens. So I'm not about to say this is something you should bother buying from any website but rather from the store. A working pen: I liked trying my cousin's pen that actually worked. It had low activation force so you could draw very lightly & it's nice. The buttons feel nice, it feels solid. With my own pen, AAAA battery lasts a long, long time. A year roughly. One thing that might make you not want this is, there's no extra nibs included and it's a smooth nib inside. Which some people don't like. I think smooth is the way to go since the rubberized ones feel like you're fighting to drag the pen across the screen.

Wow works like a charm. Really easy to use and I can sign documents without software

The nibs on this stylus gets detached too easily. This is the 3rd stylus I've had to buy for school. I have purchased replacement nibs and they did not fit. I expected a better quality for the price.

Pros: •Works instantly in Windows 11 after putting in the battery and pushing the button. The pen icon is visible in the task bar and right clicking shows menu and settings. In the menu, there is Whiteboard and 2 others. In the settings, you can add Word and One Note and Bamboo Print by checking them. I opened Adobe Photoshop app and I was also able to use the pen in finely selecting/deselecting the subject. There could be more functions to discover. Cons:●On notetaking, you need a constant pressure for the write to be completely consistent or fluent. The Wacom website recommends installing the Wacom driver so you can adjust the pressure sensitivity of the tip which I haven't done yet. But the pen works right out with pen support in Windows 11. Also, the pen docks to the HP at the right side quite stably while you are on the desk. It appears to hold not quite reliably if you are moving your laptop or if you're using your laptop in other positions like you would when sitting and leaning on a tree and your laptop on your knees. It also seems not to have a battery indicator even on Windows to warn you if the battery is already weak so it pays to have a schedule to change or charge the battery. The site says over 5 months with Wacom AES mode and over 2 months in MPP mode. Overall, it is a great pen or stylus short of being perfect.

I’ve been using the Wacom Bamboo Ink (2nd Gen) for a few weeks now, and overall, it’s a very capable and comfortable stylus for Windows Ink-enabled devices. ✅ Pros: Great Compatibility: Works seamlessly with most Windows 10/11 touchscreens. I used it on my Surface laptop and had no pairing issues. Natural Writing Experience: The pressure sensitivity feels responsive, and the pen glides smoothly across the screen. It's great for note-taking, sketching, and annotating. Comfortable Design: The hexagonal barrel feels good in the hand, like a traditional pencil. It’s well-balanced and lightweight, making it easy to use for long sessions. Customizable Buttons: Two side buttons can be configured for shortcuts, which is handy for productivity and creative tasks. Replaceable Tips: Comes with multiple nibs, so you can swap depending on your writing or drawing style. ⚠️ Cons: No Bluetooth or Eraser Function: Unlike some other styluses (like the Surface Pen), there’s no eraser on the back or Bluetooth functionality. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting. Battery Powered: Uses a AAAA battery instead of being rechargeable. Battery life is solid, but a rechargeable option would be more convenient. Bottom Line: If you're looking for a reliable and affordable stylus for a Windows Ink device, the Wacom Bamboo Ink (2nd Gen) is a solid choice. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of premium models, but it gets the job done well, especially for writing, sketching, and general productivity.

Nice pen. Fun to use. Set up with my Lenovo Yoga. When I first connected it, my touchscreem didn't work after I stopped using it. Had to uninstall and reinstall app to get it to work correctly again. No issues since.

I got this stylus to replace a first generation Bamboo stylus. The set-up was incredibly easy - just insert the included AAAA battery and start writing on the screen. No pairing required. This was a vast departure from the first generation pen that required syncing via Bluetooth and often times needed repairing because my laptop stopped recognizing it. The design on this pen is also better because it doesn’t have the flimsy button on top of the cap anymore. The first gen did have a more luxurious feel with the slightly rubberized grip and texture and triangular shape to prevent rolling off a table. But the ease of use of the second gen pen highly outweighs the aesthetic differences. I was debating getting the Plus Stylus for the added features and aesthetic upgrades, but I don’t think it would’ve been worth paying double for those couple things. This stylus seems more than capable for my use. Writing on screen is smooth and precise. It makes my school laptop so much more functional because I can now annotate, highlight and write notes directly on my lectures. I would highly recommend this Bamboo stylus for anyone who has a touchscreen laptop.

I recently picked up the Wacom Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus (2nd Generation) in Gray, and it has been a welcome addition to my digital toolkit. This stylus is designed specifically for Windows Ink, and here's what I've found so far: Design & Build: The Bamboo Ink stylus boasts a sleek and modern design in a stylish gray color. It's lightweight and comfortable to hold, making it easy to use for extended periods. The build quality is decent, though it feels a bit plasticky compared to some premium stylus options. Compatibility: One of the standout features of this stylus is its wide compatibility with Windows devices. It's designed to work seamlessly with a variety of Windows Ink-enabled devices, such as 2-in-1 laptops and tablets. The setup is straightforward, and I had no trouble connecting it to my Windows device. Performance: The stylus provides a responsive and precise writing and drawing experience. With a variety of pressure levels, it can accommodate different drawing and writing styles, making it suitable for a range of creative tasks. The palm rejection feature is effective, ensuring your hand doesn't interfere with your work. Button Customization: The Bamboo Ink stylus features two customizable buttons that can be programmed to perform specific functions or shortcuts within Windows Ink. This is a handy feature for streamlining your workflow and making the stylus work best for your needs. Battery Life: The stylus is powered by a replaceable AAAA battery, which is included in the package. Battery life is quite good, and I haven't had to replace the battery frequently, even with regular use. Overall Experience: The Wacom Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus (2nd Generation) is a solid choice for anyone looking to enhance their Windows Ink experience. It offers precise performance and compatibility with a range of Windows devices, and the customizable buttons are a practical addition. In conclusion, while the build quality could be improved, the stylus does its primary job very well, and the compatibility with a wide array of Windows devices is a significant advantage. If you're looking for an affordable and effective stylus for your Windows Ink-enabled device, the Wacom Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus is definitely worth considering.

The bamboo Ink Smart Stylus is verry handy for various functions. First of all, it looks good. secondly, it can be used handily for touch screen functions. it can also be used for doing artwork, which is the primary reason I picked it up. It is easy to use.

Great for my Lenovo laptop. The stylus that came with the laptop was very small and required inconvenient repeated docking to restore connection (which was lost frequently). This stylus is less easy to lose, has a better feel in the hand (think Apple pencil), and the assignable buttons are a time saver. Using this for data entry in an electronic health record software has real advantages over a mouse because of the ability to instantly touch the relevant area on the touchscreen rather than having to mouse around to the correct area before clicking. I recommend it.

I really like it for drawing, my only problem would be accidentally clicking the button while I’m drawing but there’s an option in the settings for the button to do nothing so it’s not a big problem unless you’re actually using the button for something else.

I’ve been using the Bamboo Ink 2nd Gen for a few weeks and it works really well for note-taking and light sketching. The pen feels solid and comfortable to hold, and the pressure sensitivity is smooth once you adjust the settings. Setup was simple, and it connects quickly with my Windows laptop. My only small complaint is that the tip feels a bit slippery on some screens, and it takes a bit of practice to get the pressure just right. Overall, it’s a great stylus for everyday use — accurate, well-built, and reliable.

I was sceptical about purchasing it however it Works great on onmi laptops has percise drawing and writing tip.

Great pen. Has a nice weight so it feels natural when writing. I love that it has a built-in button for an eraser, so I don't have to keep changing my pen type to "eraser" constantly. The battery on this is super long lasting as well. The only problem I'd say it has is that it uses AAAA. These are pretty hard for me to find; I can only find them at Target, and they are kinda expensive ($9 for a two-pack).

Works well. Is comparable with HP 2 in 1 laptop. Wish it was chargable instead battery operating.

This is a cheaper alternative to the Microsoft Surface Pen, but I will say that the Surface Pen had a more intuitive erasing feature (turning the pen upside down to erase). The Bamboo Pen doesn't do this but it is otherwise accurate on the device and is stylish and feels good in the hand. A good purchase if you think the Surface Pen is too expensive (as I do)

I've had the pen for a few weeks now (Got the Wacom pen with an HP 360 Envy) and it's been working really well. However, there are sometimes where it doesn't pick up the input. I'll click something on the computer with the pen and it will just decide not to work anymore. I've been able to resolve this every time it has happened, but I'm not sure if the tip has worn down already (which would be odd since it's only been a few weeks, but it's not really an issue since the tip can be replaced easily for a cheap price) or if that's an issue from the pen itself. (Could also be battery, but idk) If it is a battery issue that can also be fixed. FYI, I've been using the pen for digital art, writing, and "quality of life improvements," like clicking and scrolling. The pen works very well for all of these tasks. It is also very easy to set up with the computer.

This was an easy pen to link up to my laptop I have the lenovo yoga 7i and it works perfectly with it my only issue is I wish the button to connect it and erase was higher up or something I'm constantly pressing it while using it since I write with my fingers further down but other than that great product.

Best pen for our new ZenBook laptop. Works fantastically for our windows whiteboard. Very easy
