I could not agree with GreyFox7 more. - There are so many choices out there regarding a Stylus - As for myself, I usually like to select a stylus that has more than one purpose. I ran across a stylus the other day that had a Pen, laser-pointer, phone holder & flashlight combo. Go-Go-Gadget! As for my personal choice, I tend to purchase a stylus that I can easily clip to my shirt or computer bag which makes it easier to keep track of and I don't lose it a week after getting it. For a laugh - take a look at this Stylus. The "NERD" in me actually wants one.............
Multi-Purpose Stylus Pen, Phone Holder & Flash Light
The ONLY reasons I ordered a separate stylus for my Surface devices in the past is -
1) I wanted 1 for my Samsung devices as well, until I bought the Note 8 which has its own built in stylus - Woo-Hoo - Bliss!
2) Surface Devices would not allow the Pen to utilize "flick" gestures to scroll elongated windows up or down. By obtaining a separate stylus, I of course could use it to navigate elongated windows.
However, as we all know (& I am very elated) - Microsoft fixed this issue and we can all use the ever-so-costly Pen to scroll without having to grab that annoying scroll bar. Yayy!!!!!!
Happy Stylus Hunting! Let us know what you landed on.
