Crossing your T's and dotting your I's: they out a-donit! (updated)
This stylus let's you use your iPad for handwriting like you would a pen and paper. The precision is excellent but the writing isn't jagged and there are no line breaks, even with my Moshi Crystal Clear iVisor screen protector. In this review I will include comparisons the Jot Pro by Adonit, the other stylus I've found allows you to do that. So far this stylus writes better than the Jot Pro. Here are the details: I'll break the mold and start with the bad: - the body is not magnetic (something I really like about the Jot Pro), and - it doesn't quite have the heavy weighted feel of the adonit pen; slightly more hollow and less expensive feeling (also, less expensive :-)). The good: - A nice looking stylus. - Tip is protected by screw tight "cap" so there's no chance of it being damaged when not in use. - The cap screws onto the back of the pend when in use, so it's never lost. - A clever *twist* is that the "cap" forms a significant part of the stylus body so you won't forget to attach it or lose it. The brilliant: - Comes with a replacement disk for the tip, whereas adonit requires you to buy extras direct from them at something like $8/pair with like $7 s & h. - The most smooth, elegant stylus I've written with. While the Jot Pro has a higher quality look and feel to it, the quality of writing of the Musumee is superior to the Jot Pro. That, plus the extra writing disk put the Musumee at the top of my list, where it should stay unless the writing quality degrades rapidly. UPDATE: Been using the stylus for several months now. I wouldn't consider myself a heavy user-it's not like I'm a journalist using an iPad to take notes or anything-but I use it daily. I haven't had any issues. The writing has remained smooth and solid (no broken lines), nothing on the stylus has broken, and I haven't had to open the box with the extra tip that comes with it. I'm actually quite surprised at all the quality issues mentioned in other reviews; I guess there were some QC issues there. Nonetheless, if you check out the reviews for the silver version you'll see that experience and opinion isn't mirrored there. I suppose it's possible their grey and silver pens were manufactured differently; likely at different times, at least. So this update is just to let everyone know the stylus has held up well for me.
