2 x Universal Capacitive Stylus Pen for iPad 1, 2 & 3, iPhone 4, HTC, Tablet pc, Asus Tablets, Advent, Samsung Galaxy, Mobile Phones, PC, Blackberry Playbook & Phones, Android and all other Capacitive Screens Devices - Universal Stylus Touchscreen pen with STRAP - Assorted Colours

I unashamedly bought these to play games like 'Draw Something' without having to drag my clumsy fingers across the iPad screen! For this, the stylus works a treat.There's two in the packet supplied of assorted colours. They include a 3.5mm headphone attachment which is a nice touch, though I have not found myself using it very often - I just keep the stylus with my other pens.The only criticisms I have (which I believe apply to all styli of this type) is that firstly the head itself is quite large - this makes it tough to see where you're pressing on the screen when compared to a much finer nib like would be found on a biro. I believe there are transparent nib styli available if this is a big problem, however for my use it wasn't a huge issue.Secondly, there is no pressure sensitivity built in, it's an all or nothing style approach when writing on the screen. Again for most people including myself this is unlikely to be a huge problem, but worth considering when comparing these to more expensive alternatives.Overall for the vast majority of people I can't see the reason to get a more expensive stylus than this - they work well on all types of device and my Draw Something performance has significantly improved. Result.

UPDATE: 5/5/13: The seller got (really) greedy & this item has now gone up from £3.99 to £19-99!!! That's a 400% price increase & there is no way that these 2 styluses are worth anywhere near that!!! Im leaving my review as is (as they are good styluses), but would not advocate anyone buys the unless they get to below (say)£3 each (thats £6 for the pair)....UPDATE: 25/5/13: The seller has relented & this item is £4.99... Well worth that amount...I had originally bought five very cheap styluses (should that be "styli"?) from a four letter word auction site for a couple of quid...This was a big mistake, as although they worked (just about), they were very hit & miss as to whether they actuated the screen and scratched my tablet screen in no time at all... The silver coloured cusp above the rubber pad just kept skimming across the screen causing damage & because it was so hit-or-miss, playing game apps were just a total nightmare.Soon binning them, I decided to try for some better quality ones. I chanced upon these ones on Amazon & ordered some as the price was very reasonable but the reviews were also very good. There was no way I was paying £10 or above just for a stylus (my Tablet only cost £40)!When they arrived, although I was impressed with their slightly heavier weight & quality feel than my previous ones, testing the rubber pad on them with my finger I just couldn't discern any difference at all.Happily, when I tried them, the hit-and-miss nature had just disappeared & the responsiveness was at least as good as using my finger (and perhaps even better). I really like the earphone plug that attaches it to the Tablet too.As you never seem to have to frantically scratch away with it in the hope that it actually activates the screen, it does not seem at risk of scratching your tablet screen either.I really cannot understand why it works so much better than my first (extremely cheap) ones... The rubber end feels EXACTLY the same, but thankfully they are miles apart in their capabilities.I am sure that you could get better if you spend more money, although I cannot really visualise how it could possibly be worth it just for general surfing & gaming.I didn't expect much, but am very pleased with this product.

Not the best nor worst quality item. It's not always able to get a device to change app or scroll but that may just be the device working beyond its processor's ability to perform more than two tasks without making a glacial progress through updates, and not a fault with the stylus.All of which can be frustrating; Moral of the story - don't by a cheap tabletMine stylus came with the dummy 3.5mm plug, so fitted into the headphone socket on my tablet; the plastic used is quite soft so wears quite quickly.I now have to check that the stylus is attached to the tablet as the dummy plug falls out for a pass time.I'll end up using the clip to fix it to the carry case if I don't loose the stylus first...Not a major issue but a different quality plastic might have earned an extra star.

I bought these mainly to use in drawing on a tablet computer. In fact I use them for virtually everything on the tablet and also my Android Phone. The pens are nearly always more accurate than my finger and it almost completely prevents those nasty smear marks. I wipe the tablet, the phone and the pens with a damp cloth followed by a dry cloth each day. I try to use a light touch and so far there is no sign of wear on the tips (used for 1 month). In practise I am not doing much art work on the tablet at the moment so can't comment on wear for this application. Really very satisfied with this purchase. Delivery was next day. Colours were red and black (not what the ad showed), but because of other reviews I was expecting this. The colours sent are very pleasing and the pens are good quality. I have removed the fitting which anchors the pens to the headphone sockets because I'm good at not losing things and the retainers are a bit annoying when fitted. Can always put them back if you want to (providing you haven't lost them!)Update: Now had them for three months and both still going strong.
