    Apple Pencil is great. The Bamboo Stylus: Not sure

    Wearing begins the first day using it to do artwork. Exactly what the first Bamboo stylus DID not do. Apple Pencil is great, for sure. It doesn't seem to break down in any way, and it is actually the best tool for artwork where precision on the Anatomically correct drawings is necessary for when giving directions in medical notes, etc. but this is only useable on iPad Pro. The bamboo solo that DOES work is the short one with the cap. It's the only one I don't wear out over night. It could be the fact I need to place a screen protector on my iPad Air 2 ; because the box includes the fact it may NOT work with this kind of cover.

    The stylus is poorly made. The mesh that covers the tip wore out 2 weeks after I purchased it. A few days later the cover around the tip came off. It was able to be pushed back on, but I’m disappointed in Wacom. I purchased it because I have the bamboo drawing pad and it’s excellent. All of their products are not made with the same durability.

    No. Get a real pen. Or use your pinky.

    Good price I guess. But, just get used to your finger, pinky if need, or get the Logitech crayon (which I don’t like but half the price of the Apple Pencil).

    Nice looking stylus that worked great for two weeks until the tip broke. Unfortunately Best Buy does not sell replacements so had to order online. Two replacement tips almost cost as much as the stylus itself. Not good quality!

    I gifted this stylus to my 11 year old brother. Within the first few hours of him drawing with it the nib or tip started to tear up.I would suggest getting a rubber tip not this woven-style tip.

    My bamboo stylus worked great. I love the way slides on the screen is great, but the fabric on the tip doesn't last and the replacement tips cost a small fortune.

    stylus is a nice size and weight, but the tip is too soft and fat would like a much smaller and firmer tip

    I think it wasn't that great at all because after a couple of uses on the Stylo pen end of it just fell apart there should be replacement and that go on there and there wasn't any that came with it for that much money there should have been.

    Didn't know how it works, but it didn't work with an ipad which was really disappointing. I hope there was more detailed information on it before placing the order

    This pen isn’t worth the price. I mean, if you want something better than those cheap styluses from the dollar store go on ahead. However, was expecting the tip to be more precise than a cheap 1 dollar stylus.

    Bought this to use on my 2 in 1 Laptop. Thought I could use it like a pen, NOT. It worked just about half the time and I found the generic $2.00 stylus works better.

    I bought this pen for digital graphic drawing. But it is not so great performance. I can't control easily. I need more detailed sensibility.

    Stylus is not effective on many surfaces. I have 2 other units at half the price. I expected more due to prior experience with the Wacom product line.

    When I use the stylus on my iPad Pro, I have to do it a few times before it recognizes it.

    Have always been a "Bamboo" fan but the covering came off the nib within a few weeks. Replacement nibs for this model are costly.
