I bought this because I lost the stylus that came with the tablet. Since receiving the new one I found the original. It’s now my backup/travel stylus. I like the new one significantly more. The nonslip grip is great for control. I did notice it’s slightly warped around the button but hasn’t presented any problems with comfort of functionality. The original pen felt like a toy and was hard and glossy. This one has a matte finish that drastically changes the feel. The tapered design is more comfortable for long sessions. Still fits in the original stand as well. Awesome purchase.
