Active vs Capacitive Styluses for Drawing
Vložit
- čas přidán 11. 02. 2017
- The perfect stylus for your tablet really depends on what you're using. Capacitive styluses generally work the same across different tablets or touchscreen devices. Digital styluses usually support only the OS and products they are made for.

Finally someone who's not using apple ipad
Yessss
😂😂🤣🤣🤣 you too fed up with over marketing of iPad?
@@krutarthpujarar word gen z and their status flex yet they are trying to be anti capitalist 😂
palm rejection = wear a glove
drawing diagonals = rotate the paper 45 deg and draw.
vertical or horizontal fix = rotate paper 90 deg
Budget palm rejection = get towel and wrap around hand
permanent palm rejection : cut off the part of palm which touches your screen often.
@@Ashley-vr4qf cut off entire hand
Put pen on bloody arm
Put towel as a replacement hand
Ez palm rejection
Better option, ask the iPad nicely if he can draw for u
Better option - Don't draw at all ? 😂😂😂
And i'm here searching up how to make styluses.
Lol same XD
Same 😂
Yep
Handmade stylus is actually very good and works perfectly once you know how master it ..
Same 😂 last time i searched was over a year ago and now i remember why.. i think im just gonna wait until i can afford a proper working stylus
Man thank you for doing your best to clear up this confusing mess. The stylus market is one of the most CONFUSED line of products I've ever seen. Trying to make a decision is soooo difficult for some reason
i'm still confused about what to buy
@@mcdongalemployee man honestly I am too, but after all the research I've done, I know the man has truly done his best to explain 😆😆😆 this is an absolutely terrible line of products that companies have very little interest in improving for some reason 😅
Man same, I wanted to get one for my phone and still have no idea what to get
@Roborav D Same
@@kaojaicam all I want is to figure out if a stylus is compatible with Ibis Paint X on my Oppo android because I wanna learn digital art😭
Why does this gotta be hard
THERE ARE STYLUSES WITH A BRUSH TIP? WTH, I THOUGHT THAT WAS MY IDEA, AND IT BECAME TRUE A LONG TIME AGO?
Loop Is Dedz should have got a Patent
I thought that was my idea lol😂
It happens. Once I had thought there should be an in-ear earbud for earphones becoz flat earphones used to hurt. This was in 1998. And it became true when I grew up...
Scrolling through comments in the begining of the video and OMG THOSE ARE REAL?!?!
You're gonna be a successful stylus developer. Please send me one soon
Over 3 years later and I've found this very informative! There is not a lot of information about the terminology between the two types out there. Thank you very much for clarifying. This will help me find the right stylus for creating art. Cheers!
if there's no palm rejection, use a glove
Too bad that'll be uncomfortable also actual advice the thinner the better although if they're too thin it won't reject your palm at all
@@bland9876 there's artist gloves specifically made for it. They are comfortable and designed for tablets that you want to use use your fingers for, but also want palm rejection
@@lemmontree6638 that's pretty cool
It's even easier to make a diy version of it if you can't afford the cheap ones.
@@bland9876 there’s special artist gloves :)
This is exactly the video I've been looking for! After using a Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 for the past 3 years, I've become used to have a stylus that just works without charging and is very accurate.
I just recently bought a Lenovo Yoga 6 and just found out the plethora of options before me. I so badly needed direction on which to look at. Thank you for this video.
i bought a 4€ touchpen
_it was a pen_
That’s why I watch reviews first
Infected Animations **choking on my wheeze**
Rest in peice
I feel so bad for you...
Same 4 pound from eBay...
This is one of the best, most informative tutorial reviews I have ever read or watched. Masterfully done, thank you!
This was the most useful video i have seen about stylus pens, because it not only compares different products but also explains why they work this way.
I don't know about these things and now everything is clearer. I'm going to read the blog to understand it much better. 😊👍👍👍
This has been one of THE MOST HELPFUL videos I've found online regarding the different stylus pens. Thank you for digging deep into the details of function and practicality for each pen type!
Wow, people are so rude and cynical!
Thank you for a very clear and easy to understand explanation for anyone less experienced with using styluses!
He gave some helpful info, but I don't understand why he often shows a pen and what it can do, then doesn't tell us the brand and model of the pen.
very clear, concrete, practical advice -- thanks so much!
I got Adonit Pixel for Christmas and I love it. I decided to take this styles because of comment conversation about it with you.
so THANKS!!!!
+KobaJ Jakob That's great 😁
The Lenovo tablets/computers (ThinkPad 10, Yoga, X210t) usually come with Wacom digitizers (sometimes called Penabled), so I have been able to use the pen from the ThinkPad 10, the ThinkVision LT1423p and Wacom Bamboo Stylus Feel... and all Bamboo tablets pens (and older Graphire 3 pens) without an issue. So far, they can also use the standard Wacom drivers
+Quentin's Family Show Thanks for sharing. I've not used those before.
I love that you provide a document of this as well.
Thank you for taking the time to explain this stuff.
Thank you for your wonderful presentation I really enjoyed it, this video really helped me to decide what I needed and eliminated confusion.
Finally the quality content I have been searching all day. Thanks Man, for this amazing description.
thank you for your time spent on this product .. I now understand more
Superb video. Even if it was 6 year old video for me, yet it cleared so many questions that I had. Thumbs up for the good work man. Much appreciated.
I got very comfused with all the styluses. do you have a good hard tip smooth universal active stylus around 30 dollars to recommend?
There's no universal active stylus. Only universal capacitive stylus. And it depends on what you want to do with the stylus. E.g. writing or drawing. For drawing, get Adonit Jot Pro, for writing Adonit Dash 2.
Teoh Yi Chie , thank you very much, are they palm rejected?
Teoh Yi Chie I found a universal active stylus for 5 dollars it works great!!!
TimeLapse King what's the name? Any link?
i bought an active stylus the other day for my iPad pro and Note 8 and it really works well with both of them . it even comes with a stylus pouch which wraps around your tablet, i am happy with it , here is the link , you may consider www.amazon.com/Android-Samsung-Notebooks-Adjustable-Rechargeable/dp/B073RFGV4C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1506093362&sr=8-1&keywords=slim%2Bpro%2Bactive%2Bstylus&th=1
Soo... long story, short: I should have bought an IPad Pro
Maybe a drawing tab would be better
They have drawing tablets for androids if you have one
I actually found one in the lost in found & found out the ipad stylus has no pressure sensitivity soooooooo
@@ANlMOSlTY what? It should have pressure sensitivity?
@@Twollsy long story short my dumb-dumb ass didnt notice the case was messing up the screen XDDD
Thanks Teoh. You answered a lot of questions for me. I appreciate your experience about these pens.
+martynsnan Thank you 😊
I actually watched the whole thing without pausing or skipping which is very rare 😅😂. Thank you so much for making this detailed comparison, I find your explanation very helpful & easy to understand without sounding obnoxious to those who are clueless on this sort of stuff. Excellent work 👌👍
thank you so much for the information. It really helped me to decide what type of touch screens I should buy,
im looking for a cheap stylus that's presice
Disk stylus or active stylus. Cons with disk stylus is you will loose the disks
Wait...I just bought a $1 stylus and I thought that it was a pen.
Lol Productions// Fart Heads lol... i buy a laser thar i randomly found in store and realized that it has stylus at the end....
how lucky lmao
🤦🏾♂️
Actually me too but i didn't see the rubber
Lol
I’ve been drawing for so long now, But I’m not quite sure which one would be good for an artist who likes to draw on apps, and can easily glide across the screen. Also, something that the tip is less bulky. Overall, something that would give a great and comfortable result for art.
This dude hearts your comment but never tells u which one 2 get
Which tablet are you using? For Android, unless the tablet advertises pressure sensitivity, there will not be any pressure support. If so you can just get those disc tip styluses (Adonit Jot) which are more accurate compared to those smaller fine tip which usually has parallax. You can check out Adonit stylus reviews at www.parkablogs.com/tags/adonit
Very helpful, thanks. I didn't know there were two versions of the Samsung tab A. That's very sly that they don't tell you.
12:50 can you say the model with pressure sensitivity for any Android? Some kind of Samsung stylus, but I can't found the name.
Edit: Ok! I found it. Samsung Galaxy Tabpro Pen - only for Windows Ink for Galaxy TabPro device
Excellent work. This was really helpful in choosing which products I should go with. Thanks 🙂
what is the brand of that silver pen that worked on sumsung?
my samsung is glaxy 10 guess 2018 hope it works on it?
Actually on some phones you can use a 0.5mm automatic
pencil as capacitive stylus thanks to the sensitivity of the digitizer.
Very informative. Thank you. I just ordered the Capacitive Pen with the disk. I was worried that my tablet wont be able to use it. I'm at ease now. Thank you
So how to get the pressure sensitivity on capacitive screen? Which pen to buy? I'm cool with Bluetooth pen.
Agus Sugianto ok
Excellent review, thank you, very informative.
Great video, super informative!
For iPad (OS 14.8) which stylus pen do you recommend (iPad not for art at all, work only & mostly just as alternate to finger)? Thx!
So I have one of those fine point capacitive styluses with the clear disc, and I don’t know if it’s just the pen I bought or if it’s me, but it stopped working sooo quickly! Within a few hours, it won’t work properly at all, but it was working just fine when I first got it. Please, I need help! Am I pushing it too hard or something? I just don’t get why it wore out so fast, any help would be appreciated :,(
What is the name/make of the last capacitive stylus you used, the very dark grey/black one? It seems to do exactly what I am looking for, as it appears my HP Envy x360 does NOT support a pen. What is a rough price also, please? Thanks.
hello what is the name of that samsung digital capacitive stylus with pressure sensitivity? I am trying to find it and cant lol
guestion about Adonit Jot Pro Fine Point Stylus,does it have palm rejection? I read your blog,good rewviews but I didnt see if it had palm rejection or not.
+SuperHappydoggy There is no palm rejection
Congratulations and thanks for the precise information!!
Does anyone have stylus recommendations for a touch screen chromebook laptop? I need a fine point stylus for art
Valerie Martinez same
Hi ! :) If I have Samsung Galaxy tab S2, for writing notes for school , did should work ? which one is the best for my tab ?
I just wear a gloves, it keeps my palm from interacting with the screen. If you don’t have gloves at the time, placing a folded up a paper towel under ur hand will do the same.
Hi I really hope you can help me out. You mention that bigger tips will work better on a capacitive screen (like the rubber tip) How come for example the apple Ipad (which is also capacitive i thought?) come with a stylus pen with a very small tip (like a pencil?) How does that work?
That was so informative! Thank you very much! I was completely lost with so many different types of pens... Any tips on styluses for Lenovo IdeaPad? I think I like the active ones better
So I just bought a Brillar tablet. How do I know if it supports and active stylus?
What is that Samsung branded one? Does anyone know the model of that? I didn't know they had made a capacitive stylus. And it looks slightly wider, so it might fit my larger hands.. I'd like to research that one some more..
Thank you! I am interested in getting into art via my Samsung Galaxy S7 but had no idea what I was getting into!
What is the best pen for a Dell 17 inch monitor, for marking up essays? It says it takes an active pen but none work.
Not sure if you're seeing this after three years but is the one with disc will break? And will it scratch my screen? Can I unattach it? (Not the one with a rubber thing thing in the other video but in this video which is the common ones)
Hi thanks for this great explaining video 👍, but can y maybe tell what alternatives I have with a mate book e (windows 11)?, Because I have trying the Elzo 3 in 1, the Meko Kapazitive, renaiser, just the Elzo work with only some apps now after this video I am confused why only this worked in some apps?😱😇
I have an capacitive cheap stylus but I have never had a problem with drawing diagonal lines, you think this is more a problem with the apps?
To my understanding
- Active Stylus will have a cursor when in close proximity to supported screen. Like that 3:05
- Capacitive Stylus is rubber tipped but there is also capacitive stylus with pointy ballpoint like tip and usually has disc, like in 5:41
- Now this 3rd type is what confused me , an ACTIVE CAPACITIVE STYLUS, it has rechargeable battery too. Is it more sensitive and easier to register on the screen ? or what ? I don't understand this one, I found quite a lot of this in online stores and it's quite expensive.
I am currently using capacitive stylus with pointy tip with disc like in 5:41 for playing Nintendo DS emulator (Drastic), but it's not very sensitive sometimes it doesn't register the tap, but it is not that bad I can even use it for playing Trauma Center, the surgeon game on DS and do surgery using this stylus, it's just sometimes it won't register so I can't aim for better rank when racing against time doing the surgery. I hope it's usable for later chapter with harder and time critical missions
Funny thing when I was playing the real DS back in the days, I often used my finger nail to tap, but now that I use emulator+android where finger is the main supported touch input , I miss the use of stylus. Using stylus is much more accurate than finger. and it can pinpoint tap to a very small area on the screen like maybe 3mm x 3mm maybe even less. Both stylus and finger supported should be made more common and cheap, it's the best of both world.
i may be a little late but the 3rd type of capacitive stylus the one with the battery uses the battery power to generate an electric field in the tip to fool the device into thinking a finger is on the screen which allows it to have a fine tip and no disk
Any recommendation for a Lenovo yoga 730 apart (and cheaper) from the Lenovo active pen 2?
What is perfect fine tip stylus for Alldocube iwork 10 pro? Not finding a single review or answer anywhere..!! 😔
Hi. Is that lenovo flex 20? I have that and cant find a good stylus for art. Any recomendations??
I have a Huawei t3 7
Can you please tell me the right stylus for my tablet
Nice video! :)
By the way, which styluses do you recommend for RCA Voyager 3 that supports Android?
Hi there, anyone know which digital pen is suitable for asus zenpad z10? I was using active stylus pen and it only worked smoothly with my nokia, not asus zenpad although they are using the same android system?
I'm using Huawei phone and I am finding a stylus pen that I can easily take note by handwriting on it. I like a stylus pen which has small tip like Microsoft pen. Could you please recommend a pen that matches my need?
Thanks a lot!
Check out Adonit Snap or Adonit Dash 3
Hi! Thank you for the explanation. Do You recommend some pen for android with pressure levels?
Only one I know of is Samsung S Pen that works on selected Samsung tablets.
I bought a asus laptop with stylus. my stylus is not working on oneplus 9pro. is their any other way for this to make it work
I have microsoft surface RT. Witch stylus pen i should use???
what stylues i can use for a huawei medpiad t5 tablet for drawing plz
Hi, I am new with writing pens for tablets. As my need is an ipad, what pens would be suitable for writing and signing? And are there alternatives to the ipad pencil?
If it is the iPad 6 (2018), Apple Pencil is best. If not check out Adonit Pixel.
Theoretically, does a stylus work on a black screen? My phone has black screen and I need to "draw" the opening pattern to unlock and access data...
I thought you'd say *" Hello everyone this is your dailydose of internet "* lmao
Can someone help me? Which one of these Styluses will work with my Lenovo Xiaoxin Tablet TB-8804F?
Great video; I learned a lot. Looking for a good writing type stylus so this video helped.
Hey Teoh. I have a chuwi hi12 dualboot with its designated stylus the hipen H1 - an active and pressure sensitive pen working with the tablet digitizer. very bad performances. noisy tip, vibrations when trying to draw straight lines, resting the palm on the screen makes sudden line strokes and more... any idea what pen might work with the chuwi digitizer??
+Yakir Ben ari Usually such digitizer tablets are compatible with their own brand styluses. So for accuracy, it would be the Adonit Jot Pro or rubber tip styluses.
Hi
I want to know if the Electromagnetic Active Stylus Pen for cube i7 will work on my HP pavillion 360 touchscreen. Thanks
REPLY
+*Dreamtube* Not sure about that working.
So I got an iPhone 6, I used to have a note 4. And what I love the most was the S pen. Anyways, I was looking for a stylus for my iPhone that I can draw with and doesn't feel too big for the screen. I like the Adonit Pro 3 but I think its gonna be too big for the iphone 6's screen. So, What do you recommend?
+Sara Fernández Maybe check out Adonit Snap
My mom just bought a set of stylus for RM 10 and I thought it won't work like the other styluses I used before but this works
(there were like 12 styluses and the stylus is the rubber tip)
Can you tell me compatible active pen with HP pavilion x360 dh1178tu
What is the white Samsung tablet ure using around 12min?
Thanks for making the effort to make the text version of these videos. Videos make me sleepy. Appreciate it man.
How to you turn on hover mode on Android devices?
I want a stylus to play June’s Journey - a “find it game”- my Apple Pencil doesn’t work well and cheap rubber non electronic pens are stodgy. Do I need an active stylus? I have an 2020 IPad Pro Max
your apple pencil already is an active stylus
All I'm looking for is a video that shows which stylus pen is good for whatever screen or android. I don't have a tablet nor do I plan on buying one. Help...
Thank you! This explained so much. Now I know what I am looking for
Hello, how about motoG stylus, does it work on iphone 14 screen?
Which stylus should I use for Dell Inspiron 13 convertible 5000 series, for writing profound content in MS Word? Please answer, genuinely in need
If you only want to write using MS Word, you can do with the Adonit Jot Pro, Wacom Bamboo or..... the HP Active Pen or Microsoft Surface pen. If you want to draw or paint too, the active range of pens are recommended. I just ordered the MS Surface Pen.....
I don’t think it has pen support so a capacitive stylus would be the only option
Im not sure if this is quite the right way to ask this question, but does anyone know if there is such a thing as analog drawing tablets?
Y'know like it has infinite pressure sensitivity and infinite drawing/pen accuracy like irl drawing but in digital?
Mr.SomeDonkus have you looked at iSkn? You use actual paper and drawing tools and it gets digitized.
What about resistive touch screens the ones that are always came with the stylist for example the Nintendo DS how good or bad are those for drawing
Excellent info! I'm just now realizing how difficult it is to find a good fine point stylus for use with multiple devices. I love the SPen on my Galaxy Note 5 and am trying to find something comparable for my mom who has an iPhone 7 Plus and an older iPad Air (not the Air 2). Which would you recommend?
+GForceFitness1 If you need pressure sensitivity and palm rejection then it is the expensive Adonit Pixel. If not, check out Adonit Dash 3 or Adonit Snap. I have reviews for all of them.
Excellent video! Can you please do a review on the EasyPencil Pro from SwitchEasy?
I would like to know if they’re worth it or not! Thank you 💕
I just want a fine point capacitive pen - but I hate that transparent plastic disk on the tip.
Is there *ANY* alternative or a way to have it work with that off?
I'm attempting to doodle on my S9+
Maybe Adonit Dash 3
Thanks for the very helpful video, did you try any kind of stylus on a standard touch screen laptop? I'm looking at the 2017 version of the dell xps 15 inch touch screen and I'm wondering if there is a stylus that would work well on it. Any recommendations?
+Bob Whiteside Touch screen laptops (not those foldable 2-in-1) may not work well with stylus. There might be broken lines when drawing with stylus. That's because they are design for touch and tap. I've used a stylus on XPS and had that broken line issue.
i need a pen for my galaxy S7 Fe phone... i want to draw on my phone but i cant finde the right pen. I bought one on amazone Active capacitive stylus superfine Nib pen its workin on my phone and on the apps (IbisPaint, sketchbook and so on.) BUT When I draw the lines are not straight but shaky or wavy. I have tried every setting but nothing works...
It's now 2021, is the jagged diagonal line problem still an issue with the latest tablets like ipad pro etc?
Jagged lines will depend a lot on the stylus used. E.g. Apple Pencil does not produce jagged lines.
I'm looking for a Stylus that I'm afraid doesn't exist... I aim to use my laptop's touchpad (which is reasonably good) as a rudimentary graphics tablet (of course, not for professional drawing, just for adding handwritten notes on PDF files, to highlight important parts, draw little diagrams, etc, when I study). I have thought to acquire a capacitive active stylus so that my precision is higher. However, when I want to write or draw instead of only moving the cursor, I have to tap twice on the trackpad to click, which is annoying... Is there maybe a stylus with a button you can press as the left-click of the mouse? Or maybe another solution...?
Trackpad does not work with such styluses
Just a tip for the people who do not know this solution: If you don't have a palm rejection option or the one on your device is shit, just make shure your palm does not touch the screen by placing something between it, like a cloth. I always pull the sleeve of my shirt over my palm, works everytime on my acer switch.
I think buying an artist's glove will solve this problem.
Mon Siri-Utsahakul i thought i was the only one making this xd
Which one will work if any with the Samsung Galaxy tab A T580. When I bought it I didn’t realize it was the one without the spen and I need a good stylus. Thank u!
Adonit Jot Pro, the one with the disc tip
I am buying the samsung galaxy tab a 10.1 as a present for someone, they are an artist ans have asked for a s pen with it but I see you have said that unless it the tablet orginially comes with an s pen, an s pen bought separately will not work, there is no options to buy the tablet and the pen together in the uk, what would you suggest I do?
+Laura Boyle Maybe go online and search? Try Amazon UK or other online retailers. You have to get one bundled with S Pen
Thanks for the orientation: i'm going to get a capacitive stylus as a gift for my dad, who use an iPad (i think ipad 2, or not a recent model as well), so he will use it for handwriting and not for drawing. What stylus do you suggest to buy? I've seen the adonit jot pro, or the adonit dash 3, but i'm a little bit confused if the parallax problem of the dash 3 would be a real problem in terms of accuracy. Can you help me please??
Thank you!
There's going to be parallax or offset if you use those battery powered stylus. Jot Pro (disc tip) is most accurate. I prefer that because I prefer accuracy.
Teoh Yi Chie but what about durability? Is the disk so fragile? Are the differences in accuracy so noticeble between the two models?
Hey Teoh, love your videos! Just wondering what pressure-sensitive capacitive stylus you used in this video at about 13:00? I've been looking for one that will work on Android, however all the stylii I've seen are Ipad only. I read that some capacitive stylus use Blutooth to communicate the pressure...
That's the Samsung TabPro stylus. Some capacitive styluses do use Bluetooth to communicate pressure because the screen has no digitizer to detect pressure.
Thanks for your reply! :) Was half hoping there was finally an android stylus for non-digitizer tablets, like on the old ipads via bluetooth. I guess I'll just have to get another tablet afterall. Looking forward to more of your product views!
