Stylus Pen M2 for Surface, 4096 Pressure Sensitivity & Tail Eraser & Tilt & Fast Charging, Microsoft Surface Pen for Surface Pro X/9/8/7/6/5/4/3/Go 3/Studio 2/Book 3/Duo 2, ASUS VivoBook Flip

Looks quite good. I lost the MS Slim Pen that I had bought to go with my Surface Laptop Studio 2. I didn't use it very often and really did not want to pay the very high price for the MS original, so I decided to give the Metapen a try. It feels decently built and is comfortable to hold. Also seems to work fine on my laptop - decently responsive and positioning seems accurate. As some others have suggested, the tip is quite hard. I was concerned that prolonged use might mark the screen, so this has prompted me to fit the screen protector that I have always intended to buy. Oh, and, despite various reports on the web, it does fit well enough in the "pen garage" on the Laptop Studio 2. Obviously, it will not charge there - that is for MS pens only - and the magnetic attraction is a bit less than I remember from the MS Pen, but it hangs there well enough.

This is the first stylus pen that I have ever used. I had recently bought a used surface pro which I am liking very much, but the price of a stylus pen is far too much, almost the same price or more than I paid for the surface pro. There were a few cheaper ones than this but in general you get what you pay for so I went with this as it seemed to be generally better than the others in most regards and being rechargeable. It worked straight away with no set up required. I charged it first which only took ten minutes and as soon as I placed the tip near the screen it was working. Firstly it feels good in the hand and has a nice weight. It isn't light but I like that. It feels solid. Writing on the screen feels okay, at least I can write my signature with it and it actually looks like my signature. It also feels responsive enough, not too laggy. I've only been used to using graphic tablets, writing or drawing onto a black slate. Being able to draw directly on the screen is far better. The tilt function is new to me and I like it very much. I have been using it lightly as I have this fear of scratching the screen but it's been fine and haven't seen any marks other than fingers and some keys from the keyboard. It fits snuggly to the side of my surface pro where it has remained and not budged or fallen off, it looks like it belongs there. Overall it is easy to use, feels good and does the job.

The pen is excellent, much better than the Asus pen that came with the laptop and it is rechargeable. It is fast and responsive, with good ergonomics. The only reason it has 4 stars, not 5, is that it does not attach very well magnetically to the Asus laptop, it keeps dropping off.

Lovely little pen, feels nice in the hand. USB C charging and linked immediately with my Surface Pro. Magnetic also. Nothing to dislike.

Love this! Bought as a bit of an impulse buy to go with my Surface Pro so I could use with Photoshop. Compared to MS pens, this was way cheaper and got on discount so really good value for money. Feels great, is easy to use and highly accurate on the screen. First time I’ve seen anything like my natural handwriting on a screen and converts to text with a high degree of accuracy. Works really well and suitably weighted to feel like a normal pen. Not used it for drawing, but can’t envisage problems for those who would need to. Lovely bit of kit and would highly recommend.

Was very apprehensive buying this as its always a risk with Microsoft products - but I was really impressed. It worked immediately and has zero lag. My son uses it for school and its robust for him to use. He uses it on a tablet in art (so on a tilt) with no issues. It dosent have any lag and works so well. It charges very quickly (1 hour). Its lasted a whole day so far and hasnt run out of charge as yet.

Excellent stylus pen, does exactly what l need it to do. The battery life is superb and it was so easy to setup up with my laptop. Excellent quality for the price.

I have no idea how this pen receives so many stars from people!....I purchased it because many said it was good for sketching, etc...NO its not, the nibs are like solid plastic and it struggles to make a straight line on the smooth screen. If you have a paper feel screen cover, it may be a little better but the new pen I purchased .MM2 STYLUS PEN, has nibs that have the same end as WACOM ones, and have like a rubbery feel to them, are so much more responsive and a pleasure to sketch with..also half the price!

I just received my metapen M2 and my Kobo Libra Colour and it matches very well only the controls are switched in comparison with the Kobo Stylus because your eraser will be with the button and highlight with the pen tail (that would be the eraser in Kobo Stylus) but so far it’s been smooth and good experience for the price and fast delivery. You have to charge it at least 10’ before you pair it with your device.

Es perfecto, funciona muy bien con Microsoft surface!

Koppelt makkelijk met mijn kobo libre color. Reageert snel op aanraking met scherm. Snel opgeladen. Zeer tevreden over prijs kwaliteitverhouding. Losse tips gekocht omdat ik 'm van de trap had laten vallen (lekker handig) en tip was krom. Werkt nog steeds! Niks mis mee.

The stylus feels really good in the hand. It's made of a metal, so it's a bit heavier than a usual pen or pencil. Nonetheless, the quality of this pen is on top. You don't have a feeling of possessing cheap product, it feels really good on touch. I had not any issues with drivers or connectivity, it just works out of the box. I'm using OneNote for taking notes and Photoshop sometimes. And the pressure detection works good in both applications. As I said there is no need for drivers, and here is a disadvantage though, you can't configure the pen for your needs, I mean to re-assign a different command on the button or edit the pressure curve as you want. But it's not that essential, just keep this in mind. Overall, I love it, it is worth every penny. Don't hesitate to try it out!

I've been using this pen for several months now and I can definitely say this is a VERY good pen. The M2 feels quite comfortable in hand much like an apple pencil and writes with no lag. The nibs are solid plastic, but not too hard where it'd damage the screen and they rotate on the head of the pen to "roll" across the screen to reduce friction. However, using a "paperlike" or textured screen protector REALLY wears down the nibs fast, so stick with a bare screen or regular glass protector if you'd like to have some longevity to your pen nibs. Switching nibs is pretty easy, just pull em out and pop them in. The M2 also has a stronger magnet than the normal Microsoft surface pen to keep it attached to the device (mine usually stays mounted firmly on the side when not in use). No software or drivers needed to get things going, just hover it over the screen and it's good to go. While it would be nice to have some software to adjust things like pen pressure or remap the eraser/side button, it overall functions just fine for my needs. It charges via USB-C and I typically top off the battery between drawing or while taking a break, typically less than 15-30mins at a time. I typically use my surface for drawing and animating on the go rather than just taking notes, so having a good pen is very important to make the experience more comfortable and to maintain decent workflow for art purposes. One thing I CANNOT stand from most non-wacom styluses is lag and poor accuracy, so the responsiveness of this pen is notably very good for an MMP device. Attached are a couple of doodles I've made with the M2 and my "set up" with the Go and M2 for size comparison. While tools don't make the artist, they certainly can help and this pen makes my drawings on my travel device near indiscernible from quick sketches made on my wacom display tablet and desktop set up. I'd argue this pen is even better than the standard surface pen, especially for the price point. Bonus, it comes with a few extra nibs and some metapen stickers lol
