Metapen Stylus Pen M2 for Surface (Premium, 4096 Finest Control, Eraser End) - Compatible with Surface Pro 7//8/9/X//10/11/Book 3/Laptop 4/Studio 2, ASUS VivoBook Flip 14, for Creators,Students,Doers

I've been using this pen for several months now and I can definitely say this is a VERY good pen. The M2 feels quite comfortable in hand much like an apple pencil and writes with no lag. The nibs are solid plastic, but not too hard where it'd damage the screen and they rotate on the head of the pen to "roll" across the screen to reduce friction. However, using a "paperlike" or textured screen protector REALLY wears down the nibs fast, so stick with a bare screen or regular glass protector if you'd like to have some longevity to your pen nibs. Switching nibs is pretty easy, just pull em out and pop them in. The M2 also has a stronger magnet than the normal Microsoft surface pen to keep it attached to the device (mine usually stays mounted firmly on the side when not in use). No software or drivers needed to get things going, just hover it over the screen and it's good to go. While it would be nice to have some software to adjust things like pen pressure or remap the eraser/side button, it overall functions just fine for my needs. It charges via USB-C and I typically top off the battery between drawing or while taking a break, typically less than 15-30mins at a time. I typically use my surface for drawing and animating on the go rather than just taking notes, so having a good pen is very important to make the experience more comfortable and to maintain decent workflow for art purposes. One thing I CANNOT stand from most non-wacom styluses is lag and poor accuracy, so the responsiveness of this pen is notably very good for an MMP device. Attached are a couple of doodles I've made with the M2 and my "set up" with the Go and M2 for size comparison. While tools don't make the artist, they certainly can help and this pen makes my drawings on my travel device near indiscernible from quick sketches made on my wacom display tablet and desktop set up. I'd argue this pen is even better than the standard surface pen, especially for the price point. Bonus, it comes with a few extra nibs and some metapen stickers lol

I bought a MS Surface Pro 11 and put a screen protector on it. I tried 3 different pens on it: the MS Surface Pen Slim, which was $100 on sale, and the HP Active Rechargeable Tilt Pen MPP 2, which is normally $70, but I got for $50, and this one, which I got for $34. Both the HP and the MS pens felt VERY rough when writing on the Surface Pro with a screen protector, to the point that I hated using them! The Metapen was smooth as silk! And the functionality is seamless; there is no setup! You just start writing on the screen and it works! Flip it around and it works as an eraser! The button is used as a "right click". WAY cheaper AND better user experience! It's a no-brainer!

- Works with Omnibook X Flip - Has built-in magnets that allows you to stick it on magnetic surfaces - Rechargeable - the button requires a high amount of pressure making it a bit inconvenient to use for some but not a deal breaker - Good battery life but may need to be reviewed again in the next 6 months which is the usual lifespan of - Replaceable tip - The built-in magnet MAY cause your laptop to go in stand-by mode if you stick it at the side laptop that has a magnetic switch that trigger the stand-by mode. Not a deal breaker for me nor it will affect the stuff i'm working on. Annoying? maybe. I just make sure i dont place the pen at the right side of the laptop - For the price, it is great pen to use. - Why not 5 stars? Because of the quirks namely the hard to press button, the annoyance of magnet (both a plus and a minus) - if there is a 4.80 i'll give it a 4.80 - I wish the pen has a wireless charging capability.

This stylus has been a fantastic addition to my setup. Writing feels incredibly natural and responsive, which has made it so much easier to keep up with fast-paced notes during class. The battery life is equally impressive; it lasts a long time on a single charge, so I rarely have to worry about it dying mid-sentence. If you're looking for a reliable pen for drawing and writing but don't want to drop a ton of money on the name-brand version, this is a really solid choice.

Works perfectly and no setup needed!

This pen instrument is svelte, smooth and beautiful. It feels solid in the hand, has a premium feel to it. The finish is flat matte with barely noticeable, discreet branding. I've used this with HP, Asus and other brand products, it works beautifully with pretty much anything. For Kobo users: Seriously consider this, it's just over half the price of the Kobo pen. I believe they are made & come from the same factory. Other than the color (the Kobo pen is black), they are identical. Charging ports, button and even the Nibs are identical. The erase function is reversed (on the other end) which I think was intentional in order to create a distinction between the two. I show them together to demonstrate this. I bought the dedicated Kobo pen as part of a package quite awhile ago. After receiving this, I seriously wish I'd have not bought it back then. So yeah, the Metapen M2 is excellent & it works with just about everything under the sun. ...

I acquired a used Microsoft Surfacebook2 and would like to use the pen functions. The OEM version is quite expensive, so I decided to get one made by 3rd party. There are quite a few of compatible pens available on Amazon. Most of them has good reviews. I asked a friend of mine for his recommendation. He told me to go with this. And he is right. This pen work pretty well with my Surfacebook2. It has a decent weight and feel pretty good. Nothing needs to install. It just works after I charged it. It has a USB-C charging port which I already have plenty of charging cable laying around. I bought a 2nd one later when I got my kid another Surfacebook2. And he uses it a lot for drawing. Overall, I am happy with this Pen and as I mentioned, I will buy it again if I need it. For the price, I think it worth it. However, I wish the pen has an indicator that tells you the battery level, so I can charge it when the battery level is low.

I pencil seemed promising, but felt lacking and not 100% satisfactory. The weight of the pencil is rather light, making it not feel “quality” as I’m used to in a stylus pencil. When using it, there were moments where the input didn’t register while I was drawing. Also, the dot that appears when the pencil is hovering over the screen is laggy, making the experience less favorable.
