Super helpful. I bought this to use on my HP Envy 360x for school and it has been wonderful for saving paper and taking notes. Writing with it in Adobe is a pain because the strokes don’t come out smooth so the writing ends up all jacked, but I think it’s just the program because my OneNote notes look just like my paper notes do handwriting-wise.
Of course, the stylus is weighted a little differently than a pen or pencil, but not so much that it’s awkward to write with.
I bought a 2-pack of extra AAAA batteries for it from Best Buy (they’re a weird size and you can only get them from certain places), but I haven’t had to replace the original yet. I also bought the replacement tips directly from Wacom (I bought two styluses, one online, the other in person, neither came with nibs, and other reviewers have given mixed results). the proper nibs are also something that are hard to find outside of certain suppliers, but I haven’t had to replace mine yet.
I don’t use the extra features buttons very much, so I can’t comment on how helpful they are.

This pen works perfectly with my laptop and is very responsive. Writing feels smooth and accurate with no lag, which makes note-taking and studying so much easier. It’s comfortable to hold and connects quickly every time. Definitely worth the purchase.

Purchased to use with my HP envy x360 touchscreen so I can write notes. It works well. I don't keep the battery in it so not sure about how long the battery could last. Gave a 4 star due to the placement of the erase , right click button. It is easily clicked when you hold the pen and can be activated too easily when you don't want it to be.
Kind of pricey for a stylus but better quality than others.

It has some glitches and the button is in an akward place so if you are not careful it gets pressed while writing.

I'm a big fan of the sleek siliver design. I'm even more of a fan of the price. This is a great product if you're looking for a stylus that works but is also affordable!

Constant lag of the Wacom universal Bamboo pen

This pen is awful. I'm an artist that uses Clip Studio Paint and I needed a pen badly. I bought this pen in October of 2020 and once I started using it lagged. I searched multiple times on tutorials for how to get it working just in case it was only mine, but nothing useful came up. I thought that it needed a battery, and its battery wasn't easy to find. Once I got a new battery for it thinking the problem would be solved, I was wrong. The pen still lags and stops. Nothing I did could fix the lag. I have to sometimes unscrew the top, shake it, and lightly hit it to work. I will say it is a waste of 50 bucks, not worth buying it if it's going to act like that. The only good thing is that it is actually compatible with CSP. Other than that, it was a waste of money.

I purchased this for my daughter who is an Architecture student. She has used it for a summer class and said that it was better that the stylus she misplaced. When I used the stylus, it had smooth and fluid strokes. It paired well with my Asus computer. It's not heavy or bulky. It is a great smart stylus that can be used for so many projects. I highly recommend.

Honestly... we have had this pen for 11 months now and gosh darn it... have not had a reason to use it nor have we figured out (haven't attempted to) figure out how to even use it. Therefore, as much as I thought it'd be a cool thing to use on the tablet or laptop, we have not even taken it out of the box. Sorry that we can not give an honest review of it's performance. :o(

This pen works really well. I've used it with my computer and has worked okay so far. The pen does not have direct compatibility with my pc so I can't connect it through Bluetooth which means it probably is more accurate if it does connect. In any case, this is a perfect pen for someone who's looking for something that would work on any computer that allows windows ink workspace.

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.

Love this stylus. A little tricky to use in the beginning but super great when you get the hang of it. It does take the weirdest batteries in the world tho but the batteries last a while.
