Over 3 years later and I've found this very informative! There is not a lot of information about the terminology between the two types out there. Thank you very much for clarifying. This will help me find the right stylus for creating art. Cheers!
This is exactly the video I've been looking for! After using a Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 for the past 3 years, I've become used to have a stylus that just works without charging and is very accurate. I just recently bought a Lenovo Yoga 6 and just found out the plethora of options before me. I so badly needed direction on which to look at. Thank you for this video.
@@bland9876 there's artist gloves specifically made for it. They are comfortable and designed for tablets that you want to use use your fingers for, but also want palm rejection
The Lenovo tablets/computers (ThinkPad 10, Yoga, X210t) usually come with Wacom digitizers (sometimes called Penabled), so I have been able to use the pen from the ThinkPad 10, the ThinkVision LT1423p and Wacom Bamboo Stylus Feel... and all Bamboo tablets pens (and older Graphire 3 pens) without an issue. So far, they can also use the standard Wacom drivers
This has been one of THE MOST HELPFUL videos I've found online regarding the different stylus pens. Thank you for digging deep into the details of function and practicality for each pen type!
This was the most useful video i have seen about stylus pens, because it not only compares different products but also explains why they work this way. I don't know about these things and now everything is clearer. I'm going to read the blog to understand it much better. 😊👍👍👍
I actually watched the whole thing without pausing or skipping which is very rare 😅😂. Thank you so much for making this detailed comparison, I find your explanation very helpful & easy to understand without sounding obnoxious to those who are clueless on this sort of stuff. Excellent work 👌👍
To my understanding - Active Stylus will have a cursor when in close proximity to supported screen. Like that 3:05 - Capacitive Stylus is rubber tipped but there is also capacitive stylus with pointy ballpoint like tip and usually has disc, like in 5:41 - Now this 3rd type is what confused me , an ACTIVE CAPACITIVE STYLUS, it has rechargeable battery too. Is it more sensitive and easier to register on the screen ? or what ? I don't understand this one, I found quite a lot of this in online stores and it's quite expensive. I am currently using capacitive stylus with pointy tip with disc like in 5:41 for playing Nintendo DS emulator (Drastic), but it's not very sensitive sometimes it doesn't register the tap, but it is not that bad I can even use it for playing Trauma Center, the surgeon game on DS and do surgery using this stylus, it's just sometimes it won't register so I can't aim for better rank when racing against time doing the surgery. I hope it's usable for later chapter with harder and time critical missions Funny thing when I was playing the real DS back in the days, I often used my finger nail to tap, but now that I use emulator+android where finger is the main supported touch input , I miss the use of stylus. Using stylus is much more accurate than finger. and it can pinpoint tap to a very small area on the screen like maybe 3mm x 3mm maybe even less. Both stylus and finger supported should be made more common and cheap, it's the best of both world.
i may be a little late but the 3rd type of capacitive stylus the one with the battery uses the battery power to generate an electric field in the tip to fool the device into thinking a finger is on the screen which allows it to have a fine tip and no disk
I just wear a gloves, it keeps my palm from interacting with the screen. If you don’t have gloves at the time, placing a folded up a paper towel under ur hand will do the same.
@@cleriknotomni2980 In India we get a stylus for 199rs or nearly 3 dollars which has a stylus,a ball pen ( for paper writing) , emergency torch,compass, two different types of screwdrivers and a phone/i-pad holder all features in a single pen which is a lot cheaper than normal stylus 🤭 it works on every device
There's no universal active stylus. Only universal capacitive stylus. And it depends on what you want to do with the stylus. E.g. writing or drawing. For drawing, get Adonit Jot Pro, for writing Adonit Dash 2.
i bought an active stylus the other day for my iPad pro and Note 8 and it really works well with both of them . it even comes with a stylus pouch which wraps around your tablet, i am happy with it , here is the link , you may consider www.amazon.com/Android-Samsung-Notebooks-Adjustable-Rechargeable/dp/B073RFGV4C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1506093362&sr=8-1&keywords=slim%2Bpro%2Bactive%2Bstylus&th=1
I’ve been drawing for so long now, But I’m not quite sure which one would be good for an artist who likes to draw on apps, and can easily glide across the screen. Also, something that the tip is less bulky. Overall, something that would give a great and comfortable result for art.
Which tablet are you using? For Android, unless the tablet advertises pressure sensitivity, there will not be any pressure support. If so you can just get those disc tip styluses (Adonit Jot) which are more accurate compared to those smaller fine tip which usually has parallax. You can check out Adonit stylus reviews at www.parkablogs.com/tags/adonit
I searched active vs passive stylus on google and clicked on this video thinking that it probably is a tech channel but ohhh it's our lord and saviour Teoh. Thank you for the review 🤗 It is still helpful after 5 years
I sold my MacBook for an iPad. I needed a tablet for study and portability. I was confused after my decision. I used my iPad for a week or so but still I was double minded. But after buying a rubber tipped stylus the other day, I am quite hooked to my iPad now. I am not confused anymore about selling my MacBook. I mean to say is it is so convenient to use iPad with a stylus than using your fingers all the time. The typing feels so easy. It’s just a different and exciting experience altogether. I have Joyroom DR01 (rubber tipped) Passive Capacitive Stylus. The only gripe I have with it is the grip, it’s not that comfortable to hold. I am now looking for a rubber tipped stylus which is comfortable to hold. Can you please tell me what’s the name of the last one to the right most side in the start of the video? And can you or anyone please recommend any good brand rubber tipped stylus? I don’t use it for drawing at all. Just for touch, typing and occasional notes.
I'm here searching for the perfect stylus for my samsung a7 tab coz unfortunately this tab doesn't support stylus. But I still wanna buy that will work / compatible at least. I bought a cheap one cost me around $10. Its kinda working but not accurate & sometimes the lines are cut, thus my search continues. I wanna go for a bit expensive but I'm scared it wont be compatible putting my investment to waste. This is very helpful. Thank you!
What is that Samsung branded one? Does anyone know the model of that? I didn't know they had made a capacitive stylus. And it looks slightly wider, so it might fit my larger hands.. I'd like to research that one some more..
Excellent summary. Great communication foresight, e.g. when you used the ruler right after I thought "but his hand is shaking". I came here trying to figure out what I should get to replace my new Spectre x360 laptop's stylus, which is kind of junk. Unfortunately, I didn't get from this video technical information / specs that I need to look for to decide that. Still a great video.
Thank you. My HP x360 15T does indeed have an active display. The pen requires a AAAA battery, and digitizes with about 1/4" air gap. However, the default operation requires quite a bit of pressure to actually draw, which makes it really inconsistent, even completely unusable in any application that doesn't have pressure sensitivity. Even if I can solve this, it only has 255 pressure levels, so I suspect it will never truly deliver an intuitive tactile experience. I'm not certain if I can use other pens with this display though. Wish me luck.
I know that the "capacitive" stylus of Samsung, it's not capacitive, but it's a wacom compatible pen and it has a "passive" technology, used in most of the wacom tablets ;) So I think it's not an active neither capacitive stylus
All I'm looking for is a video that shows which stylus pen is good for whatever screen or android. I don't have a tablet nor do I plan on buying one. Help...
i need a pen for my galaxy S7 Fe phone... i want to draw on my phone but i cant finde the right pen. I bought one on amazone Active capacitive stylus superfine Nib pen its workin on my phone and on the apps (IbisPaint, sketchbook and so on.) BUT When I draw the lines are not straight but shaky or wavy. I have tried every setting but nothing works...
I have a capacitive stylus. it has no switch or plug port. It has no instructions which is damned dumb. It has a 1/2 round full R end. The 1/2 round only works if I grip the sides of the stylus hard. What's it for? The 'pen' has 2 replacements included, each has a disk attached. I won't take a disk off it to see if it IS a pen; I fear of destroying it. That was NOT enough detail about passive capacitive units. 👹
and im here searching if my normal smartphone supports non capacitive stylus, im still searching for the answer also, if someone knows if those would work with the xiaomi redmi note 7, please let me know
12:50 can you say the model with pressure sensitivity for any Android? Some kind of Samsung stylus, but I can't found the name. Edit: Ok! I found it. Samsung Galaxy Tabpro Pen - only for Windows Ink for Galaxy TabPro device
So I have one of those fine point capacitive styluses with the clear disc, and I don’t know if it’s just the pen I bought or if it’s me, but it stopped working sooo quickly! Within a few hours, it won’t work properly at all, but it was working just fine when I first got it. Please, I need help! Am I pushing it too hard or something? I just don’t get why it wore out so fast, any help would be appreciated :,(
Hi thanks for this great explaining video 👍, but can y maybe tell what alternatives I have with a mate book e (windows 11)?, Because I have trying the Elzo 3 in 1, the Meko Kapazitive, renaiser, just the Elzo work with only some apps now after this video I am confused why only this worked in some apps?😱😇
Well, there are always pro and cons to everything. For a Spen, it can always convert my handwritten notes/scripts to a file and I can always edit it later!! No Brainer about this feature.
I was buying a normal pen in my school and i got a stylus and i didnt know what a stylus was so i got it from the depths of my closet and imtyping with it blame me for hating fingerpint marks .-.
Hi I really hope you can help me out. You mention that bigger tips will work better on a capacitive screen (like the rubber tip) How come for example the apple Ipad (which is also capacitive i thought?) come with a stylus pen with a very small tip (like a pencil?) How does that work?
Not sure if you're seeing this after three years but is the one with disc will break? And will it scratch my screen? Can I unattach it? (Not the one with a rubber thing thing in the other video but in this video which is the common ones)
Just a tip for the people who do not know this solution: If you don't have a palm rejection option or the one on your device is shit, just make shure your palm does not touch the screen by placing something between it, like a cloth. I always pull the sleeve of my shirt over my palm, works everytime on my acer switch.
Hi Great video but I am still confused , i have a tablet and phone and am using a touch pen , the one with the round soft touch , i am wondering if there is a touch pen with the same soft touch but more pointed to make using for photograpy apps or colouring . Thanks
@@teohyc thanks for you teply , its not a rubber tip i was looking for the one I have has the round mesh tip i was after a smaller pointy one with a mess tip , so you can get to edges of images you cut out on photo apps. I am not sure if a rubber one would work .
@@catsaway1 The thing with those small pointed tips is, sometimes they have misalignment. It's not too bad but sometimes it happens. If you really want accuracy, go with the disc tip. Disc tips are accurate but they aren't as good for writing.
What is the name/make of the last capacitive stylus you used, the very dark grey/black one? It seems to do exactly what I am looking for, as it appears my HP Envy x360 does NOT support a pen. What is a rough price also, please? Thanks.
: 0 . The right-click could almost sell me on an active stylus (which I didn't know existed), let alone 'eraser mode'. The preview-cursor is both awesome and kinda annoying looking, I can't decide. . I was just trying to find a fine-tip stylus because as you note @ 4:40 the stylus tip often blocks my vision of the area I'm trying to work on, and got overwhelmed with the sheer variety of options when I found your video. . As I finished typing ^ the above, you got to the pdonut part, and the disc-tip stylus = YES! I *knew* someone had to be the same kind of nerd as me (but more educated and experienced) and would want to solve this problem so other frustrated nerds could benefit from their troubleshooting! . Thank you for this clear and detailed but also well-paced (not slow!) video! I sure hope you didn't spend too much on these products, but that you got to borrow them or they were sent to you for review. But if you took the hit to your wallet, I am even more awed and grateful for your sacrifice!
I want a stylus to play June’s Journey - a “find it game”- my Apple Pencil doesn’t work well and cheap rubber non electronic pens are stodgy. Do I need an active stylus? I have an 2020 IPad Pro Max
I just wanna remove stuff from my pictures. Background. I cant find an app that does it automatically. You have to color what you want to stay in the picture (using a stylus )
I just received a samsung galaxy tab A 10.5 I can't find any info on it (especially for what stylus will work) I'm feeling hopeless, I just wanna finally turn my art digital 💀😭 help!
who knows a stylus that has pressure sensitivity and would work on any phone. basically it could be an active pen that connects throught blutooth. does stylus like this exist?
I'm looking for a Stylus that I'm afraid doesn't exist... I aim to use my laptop's touchpad (which is reasonably good) as a rudimentary graphics tablet (of course, not for professional drawing, just for adding handwritten notes on PDF files, to highlight important parts, draw little diagrams, etc, when I study). I have thought to acquire a capacitive active stylus so that my precision is higher. However, when I want to write or draw instead of only moving the cursor, I have to tap twice on the trackpad to click, which is annoying... Is there maybe a stylus with a button you can press as the left-click of the mouse? Or maybe another solution...?
I use the free small StraightTalk rubber stylus’s Here are the problems with this product (as you would expect since they’re free) They are so small that you can’t exactly get a grip. The rubber tip is so thin that it makes a hole after 3 hours of use There’s a pen on the other end and if you accidentally take the pens cap off, it won’t be put back on right and will move profusely as you draw, eventually you have moved it so much that the whole stylus body is taken off. Of course all you have to do to get it back on is to twist it on again. The rubber tip seems to be painted black because the paint comes off from the friction and will cover your tablets screen with it. I’ve tested this with my finger and it rubs off with just a tap! Even new stylus’s that are warmed by only one degree for 3 minutes have the same paint problem.
I would give anything for that Samsung Pen, EJ-PW700, I can't find another pen to use on my Samsung Tab Pro S, and I am now offering my gamer HP for a Surface Pro with Pen, I'm so desperate, and devastated over not being able to do my art, and digital painting!!!
I used the rubber tip. Yeah don't use it when your device overheats. I don't know if its because of quality since it was like $1 but it smudged onto my phone. Thankfully it was easy to get off but I don't suggest it.
Hi everyone..😅 I have a doubt.. We get a passive stylus along with all the graphics tablets like wacom, xp pen, etc. Would these work with our touchscreens as well? And do they have palm rejection, if they work?( got this doubt as these pens work on pressure sensitivity and they come with buttons 😖😖)
The stylus from Wacom, XP Pen, etc are active stylus because there's a cursor that will appear when the pen is near. These stylus MAY not work with other touchscreen devices.
Finally someone who's not using apple ipad
Yessss
😂😂🤣🤣🤣 you too fed up with over marketing of iPad?
@@krutarthpujarar word gen z and their status flex yet they are trying to be anti capitalist 😂
palm rejection = wear a glove
drawing diagonals = rotate the paper 45 deg and draw.
vertical or horizontal fix = rotate paper 90 deg
Budget palm rejection = get towel and wrap around hand
permanent palm rejection : cut off the part of palm which touches your screen often.
@@Ashley-vr4qf cut off entire hand
Put pen on bloody arm
Put towel as a replacement hand
Ez palm rejection
Better option, ask the iPad nicely if he can draw for u

Theoretically, does a stylus work on a black screen? My phone has black screen and I need to "draw" the opening pattern to unlock and access data...
Does anyone have stylus recommendations for a touch screen chromebook laptop? I need a fine point stylus for art

I know that the "capacitive" stylus of Samsung, it's not capacitive, but it's a wacom compatible pen and it has a "passive" technology, used in most of the wacom tablets ;)
So I think it's not an active neither capacitive stylus
Actually on some phones you can use a 0.5mm automatic
pencil as capacitive stylus thanks to the sensitivity of the digitizer.
All I'm looking for is a video that shows which stylus pen is good for whatever screen or android. I don't have a tablet nor do I plan on buying one. Help...
i need a pen for my galaxy S7 Fe phone... i want to draw on my phone but i cant finde the right pen. I bought one on amazone Active capacitive stylus superfine Nib pen its workin on my phone and on the apps (IbisPaint, sketchbook and so on.) BUT When I draw the lines are not straight but shaky or wavy. I have tried every setting but nothing works...
I have a capacitive stylus. it has no switch or plug port. It has no instructions which is damned dumb. It has a 1/2 round full R end. The 1/2 round only works if I grip the sides of the stylus hard. What's it for? The 'pen' has 2 replacements included, each has a disk attached. I won't take a disk off it to see if it IS a pen; I fear of destroying it. That was NOT enough detail about passive capacitive units. 👹
Excellent work. This was really helpful in choosing which products I should go with. Thanks 🙂
Thank you! I am interested in getting into art via my Samsung Galaxy S7 but had no idea what I was getting into!
and im here searching if my normal smartphone supports non capacitive stylus, im still searching for the answer
also, if someone knows if those would work with the xiaomi redmi note 7, please let me know
If ur looking for that just get a rubber tip stylus
10:01 there are some stylus that have a disc head
After watching 100 diy stylus videos, I finally decided to buy a real one. It's only for $2 too
Where?
where did u find a 2 dollar good stylus please please please tell me your ways
Oh really? What is it called?
WHERE
12:50 can you say the model with pressure sensitivity for any Android? Some kind of Samsung stylus, but I can't found the name.
Edit: Ok! I found it. Samsung Galaxy Tabpro Pen - only for Windows Ink for Galaxy TabPro device
So I have one of those fine point capacitive styluses with the clear disc, and I don’t know if it’s just the pen I bought or if it’s me, but it stopped working sooo quickly! Within a few hours, it won’t work properly at all, but it was working just fine when I first got it. Please, I need help! Am I pushing it too hard or something? I just don’t get why it wore out so fast, any help would be appreciated :,(
Hi thanks for this great explaining video 👍, but can y maybe tell what alternatives I have with a mate book e (windows 11)?, Because I have trying the Elzo 3 in 1, the Meko Kapazitive, renaiser, just the Elzo work with only some apps now after this video I am confused why only this worked in some apps?😱😇
Pen and paper is still number 1.
Ever and always
Yes I too love the undo whenever I mess up..... Oh wait........

And zero EMFs. 😊
Well, there are always pro and cons to everything.
For a Spen, it can always convert my handwritten notes/scripts to a file and I can always edit it later!! No Brainer about this feature.
I was buying a normal pen in my school and i got a stylus and i didnt know what a stylus was so i got it from the depths of my closet and imtyping with it blame me for hating fingerpint marks .-.
Excellent review, thank you, very informative.
Hopefully after this video you will know how difficult it is to find the perfect stylus.... well. I was there to begin with
Hi I really hope you can help me out. You mention that bigger tips will work better on a capacitive screen (like the rubber tip) How come for example the apple Ipad (which is also capacitive i thought?) come with a stylus pen with a very small tip (like a pencil?) How does that work?
Not sure if you're seeing this after three years but is the one with disc will break? And will it scratch my screen? Can I unattach it? (Not the one with a rubber thing thing in the other video but in this video which is the common ones)
Just a tip for the people who do not know this solution: If you don't have a palm rejection option or the one on your device is shit, just make shure your palm does not touch the screen by placing something between it, like a cloth. I always pull the sleeve of my shirt over my palm, works everytime on my acer switch.
I think buying an artist's glove will solve this problem.
Mon Siri-Utsahakul i thought i was the only one making this xd
Thank you! This explained so much. Now I know what I am looking for
Hi Great video but I am still confused , i have a tablet and phone and am using a touch pen , the one with the round soft touch , i am wondering if there is a touch pen with the same soft touch but more pointed to make using for photograpy apps or colouring . Thanks
Most rubber tip has to be a certain size that’s why you don’t see smaller ones. You want to consider those plastic disc tip styluses
@@teohyc thanks for you teply , its not a rubber tip i was looking for the one I have has the round mesh tip i was after a smaller pointy one with a mess tip , so you can get to edges of images you cut out on photo apps. I am not sure if a rubber one would work .
@@catsaway1 The thing with those small pointed tips is, sometimes they have misalignment. It's not too bad but sometimes it happens. If you really want accuracy, go with the disc tip. Disc tips are accurate but they aren't as good for writing.
@@teohyc Does the disc not scratch the screen ?.
@@catsaway1 It should not since it's plastic against glass
What is the name/make of the last capacitive stylus you used, the very dark grey/black one? It seems to do exactly what I am looking for, as it appears my HP Envy x360 does NOT support a pen. What is a rough price also, please? Thanks.

The right-click could almost sell me on an active stylus (which I didn't know existed), let alone 'eraser mode'. The preview-cursor is both awesome and kinda annoying looking, I can't decide.
.
I was just trying to find a fine-tip stylus because as you note @ 4:40 the stylus tip often blocks my vision of the area I'm trying to work on, and got overwhelmed with the sheer variety of options when I found your video.
.
As I finished typing ^ the above, you got to the pdonut part, and the disc-tip stylus = YES! I *knew* someone had to be the same kind of nerd as me (but more educated and experienced) and would want to solve this problem so other frustrated nerds could benefit from their troubleshooting!
.
Thank you for this clear and detailed but also well-paced (not slow!) video! I sure hope you didn't spend too much on these products, but that you got to borrow them or they were sent to you for review. But if you took the hit to your wallet, I am even more awed and grateful for your sacrifice!

I want a stylus to play June’s Journey - a “find it game”- my Apple Pencil doesn’t work well and cheap rubber non electronic pens are stodgy. Do I need an active stylus? I have an 2020 IPad Pro Max
your apple pencil already is an active stylus
what is the brand of that silver pen that worked on sumsung?
my samsung is glaxy 10 guess 2018 hope it works on it?
I have an capacitive cheap stylus but I have never had a problem with drawing diagonal lines, you think this is more a problem with the apps?
Great video; I learned a lot. Looking for a good writing type stylus so this video helped.
I just wanna remove stuff from my pictures. Background. I cant find an app that does it automatically. You have to color what you want to stay in the picture (using a stylus )
You can use art softwares with magic wand tool like ibispaint
I bought a asus laptop with stylus. my stylus is not working on oneplus 9pro. is their any other way for this to make it work

Check out styluses from Adonit.net
who knows a stylus that has pressure sensitivity and would work on any phone. basically it could be an active pen that connects throught blutooth. does stylus like this exist?
very informative and helpful
+Taynan Nataly Thanks 😁
He said fine point styluses dont work well with capacitive screens, I've been going a while with mine and it works great tho.
Which one is it
It's a Meko stylus, it has a disc tip but the writing part is only in the center
Thank you for this video it answered many of my questions
What is perfect fine tip stylus for Alldocube iwork 10 pro? Not finding a single review or answer anywhere..!! 😔
I had the exact problem, What pen could be used with the samsung galaxy tab A 10.1 (without stylus)...
I need to know to...
i dont have to worry about the palm rejection cause i draw on a phone :) .... :")
hello what is the name of that samsung digital capacitive stylus with pressure sensitivity? I am trying to find it and cant lol
Thank you so much❤. I’ve learned a lot.
I'm looking for a Stylus that I'm afraid doesn't exist... I aim to use my laptop's touchpad (which is reasonably good) as a rudimentary graphics tablet (of course, not for professional drawing, just for adding handwritten notes on PDF files, to highlight important parts, draw little diagrams, etc, when I study). I have thought to acquire a capacitive active stylus so that my precision is higher. However, when I want to write or draw instead of only moving the cursor, I have to tap twice on the trackpad to click, which is annoying... Is there maybe a stylus with a button you can press as the left-click of the mouse? Or maybe another solution...?
Trackpad does not work with such styluses
I wish I saw your video before I purchased my laptop. I bought a touchscreen laptop but it is not compatible with digital stylus :(
im writing this with my glove.
It would have been great to name the pen model.
Very informative though, thanks.
I use the free small StraightTalk rubber stylus’s
Here are the problems with this product (as you would expect since they’re free)
They are so small that you can’t exactly get a grip.
The rubber tip is so thin that it makes a hole after 3 hours of use
There’s a pen on the other end and if you accidentally take the pens cap off, it won’t be put back on right and will move profusely as you draw, eventually you have moved it so much that the whole stylus body is taken off. Of course all you have to do to get it back on is to twist it on again.
The rubber tip seems to be painted black because the paint comes off from the friction and will cover your tablets screen with it. I’ve tested this with my finger and it rubs off with just a tap! Even new stylus’s that are warmed by only one degree for 3 minutes have the same paint problem.
I would give anything for that Samsung Pen, EJ-PW700, I can't find another pen to use on my Samsung Tab Pro S, and I am now offering my gamer HP for a Surface Pro with Pen, I'm so desperate, and devastated over not being able to do my art, and digital painting!!!
Hello sir,I want to buy a Samsung tab a 10.5 that does not support s pen,is it compatible with stylus
The capacitive stylus yes, but not the active one
I used the rubber tip. Yeah don't use it when your device overheats. I don't know if its because of quality since it was like $1 but it smudged onto my phone. Thankfully it was easy to get off but I don't suggest it.
Bit confused but I was just looking for a stylus that would work with my iPhone 7 and won't gave the disk on the tip.

Hi everyone..😅
I have a doubt.. We get a passive stylus along with all the graphics tablets like wacom, xp pen, etc. Would these work with our touchscreens as well?
And do they have palm rejection, if they work?( got this doubt as these pens work on pressure sensitivity and they come with buttons
😖😖)
The stylus from Wacom, XP Pen, etc are active stylus because there's a cursor that will appear when the pen is near.
These stylus MAY not work with other touchscreen devices.
@@teohyc ok... thanks for the clarification and the quick reply😊
How good a simple capacitive stylus can be for making pixel art / anime art?
