Review on Wacom Bamboo Ink Plus: The Ultimate Smart Stylus for Windows Ink Enabled 2-in-1 Devices by Charley Martinez

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Wacom has put too much effort into this pen

I've been using this pen for a few months now and I have to say I'm very disappointed. I wanted this pen because it had to be the best. After some use this is one of the worst pens I have ever used. USB charging seems convenient at first, but I literally have to charge it every time I want to use it. The charge also lasts only a short time and disappears without use. I also find it different than "enable" when I want to use it. Most of the time I can't tell if he's dead or if I'm just doing something wrong. Diagonal lines are not straight, but zigzag. There's also no way to program any of the buttons to erase, like most less expensive active pens do. I might not notice these issues if it could magnetically attach to my laptop. This was the last straw as to why this is the worst pen I have ever used. The only reason I bought this stylus over Dell's premium stylus was the replaceable nibs, which is honestly a nice touch.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • I'll write back later
