Just to be up front, I've never used a stylus, so I have nothing to compare this to. That being said, for me this stylus is very nice. I love the light pink color, it's retractability, and the fact that it fits into the headphone plug (though if you plan on using headphones, then you have to find a place for the tip since it doesn't fit on the end of the stylus like a pen). It does need a fair amount of pressure in order to use it on the screen. The tip is soft, smooth rubber or plastic of some type this is very flexible and not firm at all. Overall sleek and very nice looking as well as functional.

Update May 20, 2011: I've only had this stylus for a short while and have hardly used it, and already the soft tip is fraying near the base. It still functions, but I've seriously barely used it so I'm not sure if this is a quality issue or an isolated problem or what. Just be aware if you plan on using this stylus extensively. I'm taking away 1 star for this reason.

I had been looking for a stylus pen for my Samsung Moment but didn't take it to serious until winter came. I was sitting in my car letting it warm up and had to take off my gloves to use my phone. My hands were cold and it was awkward. So when I got the Evo in March I decided to get the pen. I did my research and found that this little stylus had the best reviews. Now I know why. It's a cute retractable stylus but it's great at doing it's job. I have used it to play games, go to my gallery and look at pictures. Dial on the phone. Anything I do with my fat little fingers I can do with this slim stylus. It hooks onto the phone in the 3.5 earbud jack, so you never have to fish around in a pocket or purse. The cover is connected to the string that holds it in the jack so all you have to do is click off the stylus and it's ready to go. You can either use the pen without retracting it or if you need it a little longer then pull the bottom of it up. The tip that touches your phone is soft and rubbery so it doesn't scratch. I have a screen protector on my phone but would feel fine using the stylus on my naked screen. It holds it's self in retractable mode well so it's sturdy. When you're done, it clicks right back into place and you can be on your way knowing that it's secure. I like the fact that the color I chose is a soft pink, the color of bubble gum. I've shown this to other people while they were using their phones and they really liked it. I'd say you can feel confident about your purchase of this stylus pen.

I absolutely love this pink stylus! It's retractable, and it sits right in my iPad when I'm not using it. It makes typing so much easier and you don't have to worry about fingerprints on your screen!
