Excellent stylus - takes practice

This stylus is GREAT - once you get the hang of it. I start with packaging and accessories. It was packaged like one of those expensive pens they use to sign graduation papers or something. I'm a presentation fanatic, so I was already impressed. The pen came with a small cloth, pen cap and charging cable, as well as a small thank you note. The box also serves as a storage box. And I didn't have to pry a hacksaw out to open it - a plus. Next is charging. The first loading process only took about ten minutes. I'm one of those horrible people who charge devices overnight, so after day one I did just that. But I wanted to give a detailed rating, so I haven't calculated it since. I've been using this pen for several hours a day for three days in a row and it hasn't shown the slightest bit of fatigue. Now for accuracy. The tip of the pen is just a hair's breadth. And if it's rotated multiple angles, then it's buggy. This means that if you write a script and go deep into the lettering and hit at an angle, the entire stroke will disappear if you lose contact. At first it was very uncomfortable, but I found a way out. PRACTICE - and an old sock. yes sock The main problem is that the palm does not recoil. To counteract this, place a thick cloth under the palm of your hand so you can move freely as you work and stay in that beautiful place of continuity and control. Another point is the lack of pressure sensitivity. My drawing style consists mainly of clean, solid lines, so I don't miss any pressure. Overall I like this pen. I've had a few other more expensive active styluses and they either sucked for accuracy or just gave me dotted lines because I missed so much. Not this one. Meko has gained a loyal customer. TLDR; This is a great pen, especially for the price. It just takes a little practice to get the most out of it.
