Penoval USI2.0 Stylus Pen for Chromebooks - 4096 Pressure Levels for Lenovo, ASUS, HP Chrome Devices & Google Pixel Tablet

I’ve been using this pen for JUST a week, but the tip is already showing wear.:(

I’ve been using the Penoval USI2.0 Stylus for over a year now, and it’s still going strong. The battery still holds a charge, and it charges up fast, especially if you use a decent charger. I like the metallic feel. It feels sturdy and actually kind of premium in your hand. The silver finish looks good too. The wight is nice and not too heavy, it's a great value, the magnet is solid and decently strong, it's easy to hold. I mainly use it with my FireMax 11 tablet for drawing and editing, and it’s made things a lot easier. Palm rejection works really well, so I don’t have to worry about messing up my sketches just by resting my hand. It also has pressure sensitivity, which is decent, I haven’t gotten deep into painting with pressure effects, but it works fine for sketching and coloring. I’ve done photo touch-ups and even some basic graphic design with it, and it’s worked without any problems. It’s also handy just for general tablet navigation, like typing in passwords if you have bigger fingers. I actually bought a second one for my grandmother because she needed something easier for her tablet, and she’s been happy with it too. I haven’t had to change the nib yet (probably because I don’t draw constantly), but I’ve got a spare set just in case. After all this time, pressure sensitivity still works and nothing’s broken. Overall, if you have a USI-compatible tablet and you want a reliable, comfortable stylus that won’t break the bank, this one is a solid choice. I’d definitely recommend it for artists or just anyone who wants more precision and palm rejection on their tablet.

Dateline: A Lenovo Duet 5 Screen, Under the Cold Glow of a Thousand Pixels. The world of the stylus has long been a wretched hive of scum and villainy. A chaotic landscape of proprietary connectors, fussy Bluetooth pairings, and princely sums demanded for a simple stick that lets you draw on a screen. You were either locked into a specific company's gilded cage, paying their exorbitant fees, or you were lost in the wilderness. But a new standard has emerged from the ether, a universal language called USI 2.0. And the Penoval stylus is its finest missionary. This is not a tool you have to coax or persuade. There is no pairing ritual. There is no descent into the labyrinth of settings menus. You simply unbox the Penoval, hold its fine, metallic point near the screen of your Chromebook, and the two become one. It is an instantaneous, almost telepathic connection. A digital handshake that says, "Alright. Let's get to work." The sheer, unadulterated simplicity of it is a revelation. And the work… good heavens, the work. This is not some blunt, fat-fingered instrument for clumsy tapping. This is a digital scalpel. The tip is fine, the tracking precise. Where you put the point is exactly where the line appears. There is no lag, no parallax, no frustrating gap between your intention and the digital result. With 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity, it becomes a seismograph for your imagination. A gentle press yields a faint whisper of a line; a firm hand unleashes a bold, confident stroke. It feels intuitive. It feels right. The pen itself rests in the hand with a cool, comfortable weight. It’s a well-balanced instrument, designed for long, frantic sessions of note-taking, sketching, or simply navigating the digital world with a grace and precision your clumsy fingers could never hope to achieve. But the real masterstroke, the final, glorious rebellion against the old guard, is the battery life. This thing sips power with the discipline of a desert hermit. It lasts and lasts, a stark and welcome contrast to my memories of the first-gen Apple Pencil, a device that seemed to need a constant, life-sustaining tether to a power source. For the price, the entire proposition is ludicrous. You are getting a high-performance, professional-grade stylus that works seamlessly, feels great, and boasts an epic battery life, all for a fraction of what the big-name players demand. The Penoval USI 2.0 isn't just a great value; it's a statement. It’s proof that you don’t need to empty your wallet to get a tool that performs flawlessly. It is, without question, the smartest, sharpest, and most sensible stylus a Chromebook user could ever hope for. A five-star champion in a field of overpriced contenders.

I got this, used it, loved it, and apparently fell asleep with it -- and then one of my cats hid it somewhere. They're lucky they're cute. So then I got a much less expensive stylus, even in a cute pink color, and used that for about a month. That one worked, but once I was able to, I ordered a replacement Penoval pen. 1) It's heavier weight than the other one, which helps it seem more secure in my hand. 2) It's magnetic, so it sticks to my Google Pixel tablet for easy transport without the need for a case. 3) It automatically turns on. The replacement pen I got required me to tap on the top of the pen to wake it up -- and sometimes I had to wake it up after it was only inactive for 30 seconds. That's probably the most annoying part of the other one. 4) This one is super accurate, but also not so sensitive that my tablet thinks I'm pressing buttons when I'm not. 5) The charge lasts for DAYS, not just hours. The only downsides to this I see? 1) It's pricey -- but then again, you get what you pay for. 2) It doesn't come in fun colors That's really it. If you're in the market for a stylus and want one that'll last (until your cats hide it), this is definitely the one to go for.

Bought this stylus for use with my Pixel Tablet, which it does. It also works with my Lenovo C13 Yoga Chromebook, which I did not buy it for. My one and only complaint is the lack of physical "on" switch. It's activated by lightly shaking, which means that if it is in a bag or a backpack, or even just being walked around with, it's turning on, even when it's not intended to be used at the moment. Other than that, I have had no issues so far and am very happy with it. If I could have given it 4.5 stars, I would have because I don't think 4 stars is enough, but because it drains its power unless it is stationary, I can't give it 5

Great pen for use with my Chromebook. Works great for me
