Responsive and accurate. Just a ticket for OneNote. No need for drivers.

I bought this pen for the Lenovo Miix 700 64GB/4GB version. I uninstalled Windows 10 Home and reinstalled Windows 10 Enterprise. The stylus was recognized immediately without having to install any additional Lenovo drivers (stupid bloat) and works great in OneNote. I did some amateur sketches in AutoDesk SketchBook and it was responsive and accurate. The nib has a very pleasant weight, which gives it an excellent look. Both apps I used the pen with had automatic palm recognition and provided a great writing experience. I intended to use it to take notes in class, but haven't used it for that purpose yet. It's currently used for simple note-taking on my desktop. I also use OneNote to highlight and annotate PDFs. Cons: 1) I can foresee that replacing the tip will cause some problems. Tip replacement instructions are extremely vague. I tried replacing the tip (just as a test) but couldn't, so it might cause a headache later. 2) Nowhere to put the pen. This isn't really a disadvantage of the stylus, but rather a disadvantage of Lenovo and the Miix 700 in general. There's no room on top of the leather case, and there's no room inside the device either, making for a bit of bulkiness. Summary:->No Drivers Required->Responsiveness and Accuracy->Auto Palm Rejection in Microsoft Apps->Premium Feeling
