Review on BoxWave Capacitive Venue Stylus Black by Larry Blanco

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Hit or miss: computers and accessories

If it works, it works, but if it doesn't produce the expected response based on stylus usage, it doesn't work. I may not be used to using it yet, so I'll keep using it in hopes of getting more positive feedback as we move forward. The stylus feels good in the hand. I'm an ambidexter, so I don't notice a difference using the pen with both hands. At the same time, I will store it with a case and use it until I get bored. It was so cheap that I don't consider it a waste of money at all, even with the random aspect mentioned at the beginning. None of this means the product is faulty, it just might understand the Dell device and accept input from the stylus in my attempts to use it. While the Dell Venue 8 Pro (64GB) is still happy about the lack of apps, it's very obvious. Yes, I knew Windows was lacking in this area, and while I'm not a fan of X-Box or Playstation games, I'm not overly excited or interested in the games available for the device. From time to time I enjoy a few quick games of chess. Unfortunately, I play them on my iPhone and iPod rather than my tablet, but it has some value in working on it. I admit, it looks like the iPad Air or the Samsung Note tablet will be in my future. Although I'm in no hurry.
