Returned after many attempts at customization (Dell Venue 8 Pro)

I couldn't use this stylus to type or even scroll a web page. Each time the stylus touched the screen it resulted in multiple clicks leading to incorrect password entry, unwanted zooming and opening links, and unwanted files and programs instead of scrolling. Last but not least, the included headphone strap was too short to be useful. Instead, I settled on The Friendly Swede(TM) universal capacitive touchscreen stylus (set of 6 for $8.99). I am delighted with their accuracy and have had no…

No, the other user was right. Venue 8 Pro? Don't waste money

Another user pointed out that this doesn't work on his Venue 8 Pro, you are right. I've tried the stylus with many different uses and it just didn't work - I've tried all kinds of grips, grip angles and pressure and it just didn't work properly. When using the Paint app in Windows 8.1, the pen kept "breaking" lines while "painting". Like another user, I've tried using the stylus on other devices *WHERE IT WORKS GREAT. * So to the potential buyer of this product. If you're like me, you've been…

Pros
  • Perfect for cold days when you don't want to take your gloves off
Cons
  • Empty

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…

  • Works on all capacitive touchscreens
