What customers say about "Features"
Google Pixelbook Pen Stylus Pen with Google Assistant
  • Combined with a program such as Digital Painter, and folding the keyboard back, it turns your Pixelbook into a good art tablet.
  • The assistant button is handy. Highly recommend.
  • Well built and easy to use. Amazing pen.
  • It has no replacement tips.
  • No way to turn it "off" when in your laptop bag.
Apple Pencil Stylus Pen
  • Using it with the 2018 iPad 9.7 inch, it does work beautifully.
  • Great addition to the iPad for fine precision artwork and illustration.
  • Pretty low battery life and fiddly to charge.
  • This works well on the new iPad Air. Perfect for me!
  • Not the most comfortable pen to write with as it's quite slippery.
