The pen sleeve is peeling off

After 4 months of less than moderate use, the pen sleeve started to have small blisters and started to peel off. I don't like the fact that I will now use the stylus without a rubbery feel, it's very frustrating to have such an expensive product from Dell.

Pros
  • Amazing
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Terrible design on Computers & Accessories

One of the worst products I have ever bought. The eraser is on the pen where my fingers hold it, so I kept erasing while trying to write. Also, the connection was bad. Returned it to Revane and told the technician at the local computer shop - she confirmed it was an ongoing problem.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Nothing here

Worth the money: Pens

I have a Dell Latitude 9510. This is the only pen that works and it works GREAT! I was very insecure and didn't really want to spend the money. but it does exactly what it's supposed to. Considering I've only had it for about 1.5 weeks, but as a student I take LOTS of notes, this pen hasn't had any issues. If other pens give you trouble, try this one.

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • No performance

Mostly happy.

I really like this pen, but sometimes it skips/writes "wavy", I don't know why. When this happens, I try switching programs (by holding both sides of the button) and programming again. Sometimes it works, mostly not. Doesn't happen often, but can be annoying. I don't think the battery is low, but it's also confusing. My laptop says it's 87% charged, but then I get a notification that the battery isn't low and the pen starts to jump. Then when I turn on the computer, disconnect and reconnect the

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Some flaws

Broke on day 1 best in Computers & Accessories

Probably my fault but the tip was pushed into the body of the pen when unpacked and there is no way to pull it out. I then read in the Dell User Self Support Forum that the tip of the pen can be unscrewed (left-hand thread). I could move. I tried to lay the case with soft rubber pliers and ended up crimping the medal. Further web research shows that springs often break or wear out. It surprises me that Dell would charge $90 for something that would fail fairly easily. I also have an HP Specter…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Socket required

Great feature; Peeling Skin

Five stars for accuracy, functionality and other technical aspects. It can be a regular pen (I don't want to name the name) or a pen with a vinyl/plastic sleeve. The shell peels off like a snake or an anthropoid peels off its skin. I don't know if new film is starting to grow but my son and I have been patiently waiting to find new black film. Nothing so far. Will I buy again? Good question, because it was the pen with the highest ratings. I average 3 ratings (5+1+4 = 10) and divide by 3 to get

Pros
  • Computer and accessories
Cons
  • Slightly torn
