Best Digital Pens of 2026

"I've been really impressed with how quickly the pen connects to my OmniBook X Flip 16-inch. The accuracy of the tip is spot on, and I love that the side buttons are functional right out of the box. Even when I rest my palm on the screen, it works flawlessly. I bought it in 'like new' condition and, for the price, I couldn’t pass it up. No setup needed—just works."

"After trying several alternatives, I found this pen to be far superior in quality for my HP Envy 360. While it does cost more, none of the other pens came close to its performance. It was worth the investment for me."

"With my HP Envy 2-in-1 360x, this pen was immediately recognized and ready to use—no setup needed. I liked that it came charged and included an extra tip. Adjusting settings in the MyHP app was straightforward. The screen sensitivity is excellent, though I did find the handwriting-to-text conversion a bit slow at times."

"I've had this pen for over two years and it's been incredibly sturdy and reliable. The build quality is excellent—no issues whatsoever. In my experience, it's clearly a great product for anyone looking for a dependable stylus."

"This is probably the best pen I’ve used with my Surface Pro 8. The convenient side button, programmable top key, and haptic feedback really enhance the writing experience. It connects instantly when I remove it from the dock, and the writing feels smooth and natural. The battery life is solid, and charging it for a few minutes in the dock is enough for extended use. The only thing to watch for is that it doesn’t come with a charger, so make sure you have a compatible charging method. Overall, I’d rate it a 10/10."

"As someone who uses this pen with both the Surface Laptop Studio and Surface Pro 8, I can say the magnetic connection is stronger than expected—it doesn't fall off easily. The accuracy is fantastic for drawing diagrams and office work, and setup is effortless. Just click the back of the pen to open the whiteboard and start working. If you have a compatible Surface device and need a pen for writing or sketching, this is the one to get."

"After using my previous pen for years, this new one has made my tablet feel like a brand new device. I really appreciate the solid build and the protective case it comes with, plus the color rings add a fun touch. Works perfectly with my Cintiq."

"I needed a replacement stylus for my Wacom Intuos Pro Medium and this one was an ideal fit. The pressure sensitivity is flawless, and the case with extra nibs is a great bonus. I tend to move around a lot, so having a sturdy case for travel is a big plus. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone whose pen is starting to fail."

"I lost my original Wacom pen and picked this up as a replacement. While I find the case a bit too bulky for my laptop bag, it's still well-made and keeps the pen protected. The pen itself works perfectly and feels natural to hold, but I do wish it was a bit more affordable."

"I've used this digital pen for a year through over a dozen college courses and the nib is still going strong—unlike others that wore out fast. The thicker, comfortable grip is a big plus for me, and the retractable click is super satisfying. Even with frequent fidgeting, the pen remains sturdy. While adjusting to the thinner nib took a bit, I now appreciate being able to write smaller and fit more notes. I do miss having a built-in eraser, but the consistency and durability totally make up for it."

"As a long-time fan of Dr. Grip and someone who enjoys large, comfortable grips, this stylus is a win for me. I wish it was heavier, but that's just my personal preference. I use it on my Supernote and Boox Tab X, and the writing experience is smooth with just the right friction. Compared to others, this is the one I keep reaching for. Really hope more people use it so the company keeps making them."

"This stylus is perfect for my Kindle Scribe. The build quality impressed me, and the bulkier design means I can write all day without hand cramps. I also like that it comes with extra replacement tips. Overall, it's been a great addition to my workflow."

"I'm genuinely impressed by the improved glide and comfortable flat shape of this pen. As someone who uses handwriting recognition all day, I appreciate the soft touch finish, magnetic attachment, and the convenience of USB-C charging. The dock is sturdy and keeps the pen protected in my bag. If I had to pick just one Surface Pen, this would be my choice. Highly recommended."

"After struggling with other digital pens, I found this one to be a game changer. It’s easy to use, feels great in the hand, and is much more reliable than previous models. I liked it so much that I bought a few extra, just in case I lose one while traveling or working. It's a bit pricey, but totally worth it for me."

"As an artist focusing on character design, this pen delivers excellent line art and smooth pen pressure. The rechargeable feature is a big plus over the older Surface Pen. If you're into digital drawing like I am, I definitely recommend choosing this one over the standard Surface Pen."

"I purchased this as an extra pen for my Kamvas 22 Plus, mainly to use it with the felt nibs and have a backup. The pen buttons feel a bit looser than the one originally included, but it doesn't impact how it works."

"After my Kamvas 13 stylus was accidentally thrown away, I got this replacement. It works perfectly and lets me draw smoothly again. Interestingly, buying it with the extra nibs made it even cheaper."

"After upgrading from my old Samsung Note, I was blown away by how comfortable and accurate this Surface Pen feels. It's almost like writing with a real pen, and the strong magnet means I never lose it. The battery lasts ages, which is a big plus since I use it daily for note-taking at work."

"I love using this pen for both artwork and quick sketches on my Surface. The weight feels just right, and it works beautifully for drawing. I do wish Microsoft would offer more color options, but overall, it's a fantastic tool for creative work."

"I've tried several cheaper alternatives, but honestly, nothing compares to the official Surface Pen. The line quality is noticeably better, and it just works every time. It's definitely worth paying a little extra for the real deal."

"When I first tried this pen with my Surface Pro 3, I was immediately impressed by its well-balanced feel and smooth pairing process. The new pen tips, especially those with higher friction, make writing and drawing feel much more authentic. I also love how the eraser works just like a real eraser and all the shortcut buttons function as expected. For anyone who writes, annotates, or takes notes on their SP3, this pen is an outstanding upgrade."

"Drawing with this pen feels extremely natural thanks to the friction of the new tips. The eraser at the top is fantastic—no more fiddling with menu selections in OneNote! While I hoped to attach the pen magnetically to both sides of my Surface Pro 3, it only sticks securely near the volume rocker. Still, with a simple magnet hack, it stays put just fine. Highly recommended for anyone using their Surface for writing or drawing."

"The pen paired immediately and writes smoothly on my device. I appreciate the inclusion of various tips for different writing styles. However, I was a bit disappointed that the product didn’t include the spare tip kit as shown in the listing, and the advertised pen clip was missing. Despite this, the pen itself is high quality and works as described."

"I've been using this pen with my Wacom One, and so far, it's performed flawlessly. I really hope it remains available for purchase in the future."

"The Wacom One Pen has completely changed how I use my Galaxy Tab S7. Paired with a matte screen protector, it replicates the feeling of drawing on a Cintiq. The weight and pressure sensitivity make the tablet a pleasure to use, and I highly recommend it to other Galaxy Tab users!"

"After months of heavy use, I can't stop relying on this pen. The nibs wear down extremely slowly, and the pen still looks brand new. Its ergonomics and material quality are unmatched, and the drawing experience feels like using a real pencil on paper. It's simply the best pen I've ever used for both writing and drawing."
