Uogic Pen for Microsoft Surface, 4096 Pressure Sensitivity Palm Rejection Stylus, for Surface Pro (6th/7th/7+/8th/9th/10th/X Gen), Surface Go (1st/2nd/3rd Gen), Surface Book (1st/2nd/3rd Gen)

I was looking for an alternative stylus that might work with AAA battery, unfortunately this one does not (the typo in the description led me to the product, then I realized it might be a typo since everywhere else it says AAAA). But based on other reviews I decided to try a used one to test out the rest of its functionalities. It works on an old surface pro 5 that can run "linux-surface", and out-of-the-box it works fine in Krita. Hold the bottom button to erase, hold the top button to drag the view, so already it is more useful than the default single side button stylus. The palm-rejection is iffy, but I'll figure out a way to deal with it.

This pen has greater number of pressure levels than the original HP Pen.Palm rejection works well. Remember that it gets activated only after you bring the tip close to the screen when you start seeing the point under the tip on the screen. That's how these pens are supposed to work.The different shapes of the extra tips do not have an effect on how thick, light or dark the lines you draw come out, which is controlled by the application you are drawing in. So I don't know what purpose there is to have 2-3 different shaped tips.I only wish the pen was provided with a cap as the tips can break if the pen falls on a hard surface. I had broken the tip of the original HP pen this way. I'm going to use a cap from an old ballpen for this purpose.

It looks similar to the Gen 3 (Surface Pro 3 pen), but has no Bluetooth for opening apps. The top isn't clickable.The two buttons function as erase and right click, and is my preferred arrangement - the Surface Pen tip eraser is a gimmick IMHO, and is a faff to turn the pen around every time you want to erase something. The buttons are about 5mm closer to the nib than the SP3 pen.It measures 10mm in diameter, the same as the Stabilo analogue pen on my desk. For comparison, the Gen 3 and Gen 4 are closer to 9mm diameter. Weighting is good at 20g.Nibs are OK, not as much drag as I like from the Surface nibs. It comes with HB installed as well as a spare HB, 2x H and one 2H. My preference is for the H, from both Uogic and MS.This updated version boasts 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity, as well as Tilt function. Like the Gen3, it takes one AAAA battery which is claimed to last 1500 hours (it auto-shuts off when not in use). I like this arrangement as I rock the Surface Book 3 and the slim pen is a PITA having to carry the charging cradle - and the battery life can barely get me through a digital painting (I am a beginner and slow!).I also find that I accidentally hit the button on the slim pen all the time, not so with the Uogic.I really wanted an updated stylus with a clip - the SP3 pen only manages 256 levels of pressure, so the Uogic seemed a good bet. It doesn't have magnets in, but it will tenuously stick to the side of my SB3 when I'm not carrying it around.In use, the latency, jitter, and drawing experience is identical as far as I can tell to the Gen4 and Slim. I'm extremely impressed for the cost.This will be my Surface Duo companion pen, where I take notes but don't draw much. Well worth it and excellent value at a third of the price of the Surface Pens. If you're looking for an alternative to the MS stylus I can thoroughly recommend this one. At $30 you're not going to cry if you lose it.

I took a chance for the price, and purchased this to use with my HP 11" Windows tablet, as it uses Microsoft Pen Protocol pens like the Surface devices listed. It works, and works well. There is a bit of lag when drawing, but that may be due to the device itself and not the pen. Accuracy suffers as well, again, this may be the fault of the device, as it's a Celeron powered, low end tablet.This pen was half the price of HP's official pen. If you're looking for an MPP pen, don't want to buy the manufacturer's higher priced item, and willing to take a chance, this pen may be a good choice.

Bought this for my daughter that wants to start her a digital art business but her surface pins both died. Disabled and waiting on SSD money is tight so this was what I could afford for her. She LOVES them. Says that the sensitivity is better then the surface pen and this has a built in eraser function as well. Uses a standard battery is also a plus so you're not hunting down an AAAAA special batter that costs a kidney either. I'm going to get another if I can find a way to afford a 2nd for her

Have used it for a few days now. The right click button doesn't work effectively, so it's way faster to do the traditional right click with the trackpad/hand touch. Compared to the original Surface Pen, it works fine for writing and taking notes (at least until now). I don't do any drawing and sketching so I'm not sure about those features. It's not a perfect substitute for the Surface Pen, but with the price lower than half of the original, I think I'm quite OK with its performance, but need to wait until a few months to have a thorough review.The package of the pen says it can work on other Windows 10 laptops, but it actually isn't true (I tried on the touchscreen of an HP). I guess it only works with the Surface brand.

While I don't have a lot of experience with the best stylus', this one does everything I've hoped for, so far. I mostly use it for light drawing activity, and not so much for text. What little I've tried with text works pretty well -- very fluid, and not much lag, if any. I don't recall having any connectivity problems. If it stops working, I know it's time to change the battery!The only negative I have is that it chews through batteries in a month or less.
