Magnetic stylus

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Summary:
For what it is, it works great.
For what it is, it works great.
I have been using the stylus for a couple weeks with an iPad Pro. Now to be fair, it is NOT a bluetooth Pencil--it does not have any of the additional functionality that is specific to a bluetooth Pencil. So expecting the iPad Pro to behave as if it was would be unfair.
That said, for what it does it fits in well.
It has a nice solid feel in your hand. The iPad Pro's magnets it has on the side to hold (if not secure) the stylus. The iPad Pro case I use has a slot against the magnets to hold the bluetooth Pencil and it fits perfectly in that slot. That's really handy.
In your hand, it feels like a drafting instrument and I really like that feel.
It does not have a clip at the top to be secured in a pocket, but I think that would just get in the way of it being held against the iPad. So that's a positive for me. It does have a hole drilled at the end without the style so you could put a lanyard on it if you wanted to.
The stylus tip itself is soft, compresses when pressed down and I have no problems using it. However I have seen it happen where those kinds of tips, when used constantly under heavy pressure can start to crack. Though to be fair I haven't used it for long enough to get a sense of if that would happen here. Additionally, on the iPad, there's no need to press that hard anyway.
Overall I have been very happy with the stylus and find it works great with the iPad Pro as a substitute for your finger. For example, I had a situation where my right index finger was bandaged for a week, and the stylus worked fantastic.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not bad!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this stylus to work on some coloring and designs apps. It’s the perfect size and glides across my screen fantastic with no issues. It works smoothly with no “bumps” like I’ve had issues with in the past with other brands. I like that it’s larger height than many so it’s easier to hold. The only thing I wish was different is the magnetic hold. I keep a case on my tablet and phone and with the cases on it doesn’t hold, but taking the cases off it stays perfectly. But I won’t keep them off just to hold the stylus. If it would stick through the case I would give this 5 stars. Being it doesn’t i only give it 4.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this stylus pen. It easily allows me to navigate my tablet with a light touch of the pen. It’s lightweight and I love that it’s magnetic and easily sticks to the side of my tablet. This pen isn’t one I would necessarily use if you are an artist as the rounded point isn’t meant for sharp lines. Overall it’s still a great stylus pen.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been wanting a stylus to use with my iPad but didn’t want to spend the apple price, this is a great alternative. It’s very functional and makes using my iPad so much easier. I love that it’s magnetic and attaches to my iPad with ease

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this magnetic stylis. I can just stick it to something next to me and bam it's there and I won't lose it. I can find it super easy instead of having to look under blankets,couch or in a small child's hands running around. Works with my cell phone and my laptop so that's a good plus. Thank you

My fingers were tired!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A bit of joke, but I was tired of causing using fingers and thumbs to navigate my ipad, so picked up this stylus for easier browsing and responsive commands. I love it! Its feels heavy enough, but not overly heavy. Its great that it is magnetic, because it easily attaches to the device. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never thought a stylus would be so useful to have. It helps me when clicking on small buttons, typing and drawing. The soft tip is gentle on the screen and the magnet body lets me stick it to the side of the tablet, so I don’t loose it. My son loves to draw with it. I’m happy with this product.
