Good Product

I'm a fan for writing digitally on the screen to take notes instead of using a paper notepad. I've been doing it in the iPad for years before the iPad pro came out with the pen, using all sorts of digital pens. I was excited about the Surface pro computer and using the pen. First thing is that the cost of the pen is too high considering that it is not a premium looking pen. The feel of the pen on the screen is quite good, with some resistance which helps to feel that you are not writing on glass. The precision is very good though not perfect: for drawing digitally this would probably not be enough for professional work. But to me he topic that bothers me the most is the writing recognition tool that Windows uses which is not very effective and it requires corrections. I wouldn't use that to take notes, it's just too slow. In the iPad I use special programs, that allow me to write with my hand writing and then convert that into text once I'm finished. That works well, specially Notes plus which has an excellent recognition software.

Working good

Amazing product worth the money

As I already have a surface pen, I knew what to expect. Unfortunately, I expected a darker shade of red as in the photo. The actual colour was closer to a rusty red than a poppy red.

I bought a $5 one and a $30 one for my windows surface wanting to save some money , they just don't do the job. Very high quality, uses AAAA battery that is easy to find. Very good build quality and feels good to write on. Perfect weight and feels nice in the hand. A must have for artists to get the 4000 pressure points. You can make nice shades and really acts like a pencil when drawing. In terms of the style, I really like how it looks. Looks very nice with the windows surface and matching. I also like how it attaches well to the side of the windows surface. This works by magnets and it works on both the right and left side of the surface which is very nice. You feel like you are writing on a very smooth surface with the nice pen tip material. It doesn't come with any case but I just put it in the pen pocket of my surface bag which is very common in surface bags. Order the AAAA batteries from Ebay 2 months before you need it, its cheapest there.

Es original. Tenía uno genérico de marca Metapen que me daba muchos problemas para escribir o hacer trazos. Por ahorrarme unos pesos me salió caro y con grandes disgustos. Pero este es original. Se siente completamente de calidad y cumple muy bien. Eso sí, asegúrate de conseguir pilas AAAA ya que la que viene con el producto está descargada 10/10

This review applies to the Platinum Surface Pen in use with a Surface 2017 model. The official Surface Pen has proved excellent in use. It is comfortable in my hand, feels natural against the touch screen, writes with no lag, has flawless palm rejection and attaches firmly to the magnetized side of the device. My only problem with the hardware was that it failed to pair automatically with my Surface as the enclosed instructions stated it would. Though far from expert, I'm comfortable with technology and was able to pair it manually in seconds. I suspect my experience was atypical so I did not subtract any stars because of this. Although I use my Surface primarily as a laptop with the Type Cover, adding this Surface Pen definitely expands its functionality. When precision mousing is required, such as in photo editing or using OneNote's drawing tools to make a garden plan, I can be more accurate using the pen's mouse buttons than using the track pad or a conventional mouse. Thanks to the programmable eraser button, with one click I can open a OneNote page to quickly jot something down without hunting for pen and paper even if I'm in the middle of doing something else with my computer. I am no artist, but I have poked around in my amateurish way with drawing apps that support direct on-screen inking and the conventional kind of program that would be used with a graphics pad and stylus. In my non-expert opinion, the Surface Pen would be an invaluable tool for any real digital artist. Finally, a tip for the thrifty: the platinum pen, the least expensive color option, matches the metal casing of the Surface. It won't match your Type Cover, but it won't clash with it either. So unless you're bent on making a fashion statement, pick the platinum model and save a few bucks.
