5.0 out of 5 stars Best stylus for the iPad July 2, 2010

By Jason M. Stone

Color Name:Jet Black|Size Name:Single Pack

So, it seems like the iPad stylus getting all the attention and adoration is the Pogo Sketch Stylus. Having just spent a week using it, I can honestly say it's a piece of crap. The tip is overly soft and flops back and forth while you write. It also requires that you press entirely too hard before the iPad senses it. I now take all my meeting notes on my iPad, and the Pogo Sketch was too thin which, combined with the amount of pressure required, makes longer note-taking sessions actually a bit painful.

So, at my co-worker's suggestion, I ordered the BoxWave stylus. It's a thousand times better. The tip is more firm and rounded, so it doesn't move while using it. It feels more like a real pen, instead of a bad paintbrush. I suppose it costs a few bucks more, but it's worth it. Going from the Pogo Sketch to the BoxWave was like going from a Toyota Yaris to an Audi R8.

Actually, that's insulting to the Toyota...

4.0 out of 5 stars Better choice for writing on iPad July 12, 2010

By person

Color Name:Jet Black| Size Name:Single Pack|Amazon Verified Purchase

I was debating between the less expensive pogo sketch and this Boxwave stylus. I made the right choice. A co-worker of mine purchased the pogo sketch and we tested both pens on our notebook applications on the iPad. The Boxwave pen was easily registered by multiple different notebook programs on the iPad at a normal writing angle. The pogo sketch required an odd (almost perpendicular) angle to be picked up consistently. It is more expensive (at least when I purchased) but the Boxwave stylus is my clear choice since it is the more practical stylus for anyone who wants to use the stylus to write on the iPad on a regular basis.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the best stylus currently available for iPad July 14, 2010

By Dr. Girlfriend

Color Name:Lunar Blue|Size Name:Single Pack

My iPad was given to me as a gift. I hadn't asked for it and I didn't expect it -- so when I got it I was more than slightly baffled as to what I would do with it.

I'm an artist by trade. I already have a few Wacom tablets. So when it was suggested i give drawing on the iPad a try -- I scoffed. The iPad doesn't have sensitivity like the Wacom tablets do, so I couldn't conceive that it would be good for anything beyond hangman or tic-tac-toe. Of course I was wrong. Crazy wrong.

The lack of sensitivity is an issue, but another stylus manufacturer has developed an algorithm that mimics sensitivity -- hopefully Apple will embrace this tech and implement it later on.

In the meantime, i learned to love drawing on my iPad; i loved being able to do quick little doodles and email them off to friends or clients... and while it takes some getting used to, you are capable of some remarkable detail.

Which is where using a stylus comes in.

Since I was initially clueless as to what to do with my iPad -- it also hadn't occurred to me to use a stylus for drawing. Here I was honing my finger-painting skills and then I watched as my friend casually whipped out her iPad and Pogo stylus and started doodling away. My jaw nearly dropped; what a revelation!

I ordered the exact same stylus she was using, the Pogo Sketch. When it arrived and I started drawing with it I was less than pleased; the tip is sort of this prickled velcro-y like fabric that is stuffed with foam rubber. It's pliant, and I didn't feel very in control with it -- by that I mean I couldn't be completely precise in where it would make contact with the screen. I felt it was just too mushy.

Then I ordered Boxwave's stylus. This was a vast improvement.... The tip feels like a hollow rubber ball. It's definitely much more precise, and in my opinion -- superior for drawing. It's also a quality item, it's nicely made, the finish is nice, and it has a lanyard attached that plugs into the iPad's headphone jack.

Drawing on iPad is not like drawing on paper. There's a learning curve to it -- and different people will use different tools in their own way. In other words, a perfect stylus probably does not exist yet....but for me -- this one is pretty close. Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Game changer July 17, 2010

By Andy

Color Name:Jet Black| Size Name:Single Pack|Amazon Verified Purchase

I used the pogo stylus for two months before I lost it. Looking at the reviews on Amazon, I decided to check out the boxwave. Paired with penultimate, the best sketchbook and note taking app on the iPad, I no longer use pen and paper. It's that good. The tip on boxwave is far more responsive and the body of the pen feels substantial. Apple should adopt this as an official accessory for the iPad.

3.0 out of 5 stars Very Functional...but Overpriced and with Shortcomings August 15, 2010

By Tak-Seng Lodro

Color Name:Crimson Red| Size Name:Single Pack|Amazon Verified Purchase

Review Summary:
If you're really wanting a stylus for your iPad, I would recommend this one. Considering the limited number of iPad styli on the market, this one's pretty good but I do have a couple of critiques. It's definitely overpriced and could use a protective cap for the tip. Especially since the foam is likely to not hold up very well to sharp edges and rough textures. Despite being a bit shorter than a regular pen, it's comfortable to use/write with and has a decent weight to it (seems to be made from a semi-thick tube of aluminum). Due to Apple's iPad screen technology, you'll need to press a little bit on the stylus to ensure that there is enough surface area on the screen. My opinion: this will work for now but if you're wanting a really good writing device, keep an eye out for future iPad and styli developments.

Detailed Review:
Product arrived and looked exactly as I expected but also came with a short string that is hooked onto the top end of the stylus (see the photo I added to the product images). At the end of the string is a plastic piece that's meant to go into the audio jack. It fits nicely and is snug enough so it won't pop out. However and in my opinion, if you attach the stylus to your iPad the stylus is going to swing around like crazy. I'd only recommend using this if you have a notebook type case for your iPad or a sleeve that you're going to put it in. The incase sleeve for the iPad is roomy enough to accommodate this stylus without a problem.

The stylus is shorter than a normal pen (again, see my photo) but I've had no problem using it (I'm a 6' male with medium sized hands).... Another reviewer gave low marks on the writing quality of the stylus and I'm not so sure that it should be given such a low mark because I don't believe that it is a design or product flaw. The iPad is made for fingers and I don't believe that Apple designed the iPad to be used with a stylus and for people to write on it with such a device. Therefore, I find the stylus to be adequate but the device's accommodation of a stylus to be inadequate. When writing on the iPad I do need to press a little so that there is a larger surface area in contact with the screen. If I lightly touch the stylus then the iPad doesn't pick it up. I've use this on two apps: iAnnotate and Penultimate. It works better than my finger but the iPad still isn't quite built to support handwriting (hopefully not yet).

The tip of the stylus is made from a foam. It's density is in between that of a dish sponge and hard styrofoam. My guess is that it'll hold up pretty well as long as the tip doesn't encounter much friction with rougher surfaces (like the pockets inside of my backpack). Having said this, I'm quite disappointed that the manufacturer didn't think to or decide to add a cap to protect the tip. For 21$ I'd like a bit more bang for my buck. This is about the only shortcoming that I find with this product.

I'm glad I bought this but I'm going to be on the lookout for better styli or possibly some bluetooth type stylus/device. Read more ›
