Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have tried a good 1000 dollars worth of styli. I abandoned the rubber tip long ago, although they are - well the Bamboo is, none I repeat none of the rest - good for utility such as jotting notes. I have tried every "artistic" stylus available and love some - the Sensu is the best - brush types. I now own a complete line of useless "enhanced" styli, average cost 80 bucks, with Adonit being the best of the worst and Haja being absolutely the worst iStuff accessory I have ever encountered. I was an early adopter of the Pogo Jot stylus and liked it, but found the tip too fragile and too fat to do precision work. In desperation I gave the Adonit line a try. I liked tip idea, but in practice disliked the feel and sound of the stylus crunching across the screen. Later versions addressed this but it just did not satisfy. I liked the Go Smart but the spring end was a little weird and if it out of alignment, getting it back was… well, just what you'd think; like pushing around a very fine and malleable spring. And then I found this one. The Musemee device seems to have taken in all of the lessons learned from their predecessors and competitors and their own first effort and put them together in the V2 device. It is smooth on the touch surface, has never skipped and feels good in my hand. It has the heft and balance of a decent fountain pen. It has the obvious advantages of being able to see where the tip is in space. Other tools now feel kind of like a trying to pinpoint a location with a GPS with 10 or 15 foot margines of error. Yes the tip is fragile if dropped, (replacements are cheap - packs of four for six bucks) and there is nothing worse than dropping one in the middle of a project, having no replacement and having to return to the Adonit device. Going back to it makes the superior nature of the V2 even more choice but to go back to the Adonit tool. Doing so puts the quality of the V2 tool into stark relief. If you need to do precision work on a capacitive screen, this is your tool. Ignore the haters. Buy one, buy 2 or 3. Use them. Be happy. PS. Speaking of buying, the V2 is available on the company website at prices quite a bit lower than on Amazon.
