Cheapest BoxWave Capacitive iPad Stylus (Lunar Blue)

Over All Rating Reviews :

My iPad was given to me as a gift. I hadn't asked for it and I didn't expect it -- so when I got it I was more than slightly baffled as to what I would do with it.

I'm an artist by trade. I already have a few Wacom tablets. So when it was suggested i give drawing on the iPad a try -- I scoffed. The iPad doesn't have sensitivity like the Wacom tablets do, so I couldn't conceive that it would be good for anything beyond hangman or tic-tac-toe. Of course I was wrong. Crazy wrong.

The lack of sensitivity is an issue, but another stylus manufacturer has developed an algorithm that mimics sensitivity -- hopefully Apple will embrace this tech and implement it later on.

In the meantime, i learned to love drawing on my iPad; i loved being able to do quick little doodles and email them off to friends or clients... and while it takes some getting used to, you are capable of some remarkable detail.

Which is where using a stylus comes in.

Since I was initially clueless as to what to do with my iPad -- it also hadn't occurred to me to use a stylus for drawing. Here I was honing my finger-painting skills and then I watched as my friend casually whipped out her iPad and Pogo stylus and started doodling away. My jaw nearly dropped; what a revelation!

I ordered the exact same stylus she was using, the Pogo Sketch. When it arrived and I started drawing with it I was less than pleased; the tip is sort of this prickled velcro-y like fabric that is stuffed with foam rubber. It's pliant, and I didn't feel very in control with it -- by that I mean I couldn't be completely precise in where it would make contact with the screen. I felt it was just too mushy.

Then I ordered Boxwave's stylus. This was a vast improvement. The tip feels like a hollow rubber ball. It's definitely much more precise, and in my opinion -- superior for drawing. It's also a quality item, it's nicely made, the finish is nice, and it has a lanyard attached that plugs into the iPad's headphone jack.

Drawing on iPad is not like drawing on paper. There's a learning curve to it -- and different people will use different tools in their own way. In other words, a perfect stylus probably does not exist yet....but for me -- this one is pretty close.
