AL-Star EMR Black (PC/EL tip) - Stylus Pen for Many Android Devices - Touchscreen Pen with Ergonomic Grip - Precise Writing & Drawing on Digital Media - with Function Button

As a dedicated user of the LAMY Safari fountain pen, I was thrilled to try the LAMY AL-Star EMR stylus, and it does not disappoint. If you love the Safari's design, this is the digital writing tool for you. Familiarity and Build Familiar Great Grip: The triangular ergonomic grip is the signature Lamy feature I love, and it translates perfectly to the stylus, making long writing sessions comfortable. Size is on a larger side, but that's what makes it comfortable and well balanced in the hand. Solid Feel and Build Quality: The aluminum body of the AL-Star gives it a premium, durable, and reliable feel, just like its fountain pen counterpart. There a some choice of colors to select from and because it is Lamy, there is an option to buy Lamy ballpoint pen in the desired color and just screw the EMR part on. Writing Experience Good Writing on Screen: The stylus provides a very satisfying and smooth writing experience on my device. Good Precision: I found the precision to be excellent, making handwriting and detailed drawing accurate. The Eraser Button (A Minor Quibble) The only small issue I found is with the eraser function: Button Location: The side eraser button is sometimes hard to find by feel when I'm focused on writing. Sensitivity: When the button is pressed, the eraser function is **not as sensitive** as I would prefer, occasionally requiring a firmer press or more deliberate motion. Device Pairing I am currently using this stylus with my Viwoods aiPaper mini, and the pairing works flawlessly, providing a consistent and enjoyable digital paper experience. I enjoy that with EMR pens there is no need to charge, or pair - device is ready out of the box and easy to use. Overall Recommendation I highly recommend this pen for its familiar, excellent ergonomics, solid build quality, and enjoyable writing experience. It's the perfect stylus upgrade for any LAMY Safari/Al-Star fan looking for a high-quality digital writing tool. It might be on an expensive side by there are deals on Amazon.

I had just lost my SECOND Movink pen, and decided that I didn't want to pay $130 for another one, so I came looking on Amazon for a replacement. I can attest that this pen works PERFECTLY on the Movink...I've been a fan of Lamy's pens for awhile, so this is just the best of both worlds. I'm using ZBrush on a Mac...I'd recommend this pen highly. It even has a nice "rubbery" feel on the screen. I got the smaller diameter one (not the POM). It says that the EMR one is for shiny surfaces, but my Movink has a non-glare surface and it feels fine.

The good: This is an exceptionally good Wacom-compatible stylus. It tracks well, it has a button, and it's comfortably lightweight. The cap is a wonderful touch. It protects the nib when not in use and makes using a stylus loop a breeze. Despite some reviews saying otherwise, the pen barrel is, in fact, interchangeable with (at least fountain pen, possibly rollerball) Safari models. The plastic ring at the base of the grip is fixed to the barrel on the Al-Star and to the grip on the Safari, but it's easy and non-destructive to swap the Safari's ring over to the Al-Star grip. With that done, the barrel's threading is the same between the examples I have handy so the Safari barrel screws right on. The cap from my safari does fit when the barrel is swapped over, but loosely. I don't have a rollerball Safari handy, but the cap from one may fit better. The fountain pen cap seems to be subtly different inside and out. The bad: The Al-Star DMR stylus is in nearly every way identical to the Al-Star rollerball pen, including a distinct difference in the grip when compared to the Safari and Al-Star fountain pens. The fountain pens have two flat sections at the top of the grip, with a rounded bottom. The rollerball pen and DMR stylus have three flat spots. It's a seemingly minor change, but it produces a feel in the hand that's utterly alien to a regular user of the otherwise-identical fountain pens. Personally, I'm really not a fan. The fountain pen grip has a very small contact patch on the supporting finger, which focuses its (light) weight enough that it feels substantial in the hand without actually being heavy. The flat-bottomed rollerball design spreads its weight out much more, and as a result feels like it might float away at any instant despite actually being noticeably heavier (11.9g vs 9.2g for the safari, both without the cap posted) than the Safari fountain pen I'm comparing it to. I suspect this is a significant contributing factor to the many reviews questioning whether the barrel is actually aluminum (it is). In short, if you have no experience with a Lamy fountain pen or like their rollerball pens, you'll probably love this stylus. It's great. If you use a Safari or Al-Star fountain pen regularly, don't expect a perfectly matched writing experience. The rollerball-derived design just can't deliver.

De stylus schrijft prima op mijn Boox Note Air 3C. Hij is minder stroef dan hte schrijven met de oorspronkelijke Boox stylus en maakt geen krassend geluid. De gladheid van het schrijven is even wennen. De pen ligt prettig in de hand tijdens het schrijven en schrijft heel erg precies. Een bijkomend voordeel is dat ik de korte pauze niet meer ervaar die de bijgeleverde Boox stylus wel vaak heeft. Als je begint te schrijven dan is het vaak dat de eerste lekker niet op het scherm geregistreerd wordt. De Lamy pen heeft dit veel minder, eigenlijk heb ik het nog niet gezien. De eerste bewegingen worden direct geregistreerd. Nadeel is wel dat de pen niet magnetisch is en dus los meegenomen moet worden. Maar dat was bekend.

I was a bit frustrated with the pen that comes with the Onyx Boox Note Air. The software is great, but the pen was a bit slippery and it's magnets were too weak so it often fell off the side of the tablet, ultimately getting damaged. The Lamy seemed like a good alternative, and it is. Pros: - Better nibs: the Lamy has a better feel on the glass screen of the Note Air. It feels like a felt-pen rather than a slippery piece of plastic. That makes writing easier. - Better sensitivity: the Lamy can register very light strokes as very thin lines, and heavy strokes much thicker. The standard Note Air stylus has maybe half the sensitivity range in practice. - Erase button: the button on the Lamy is well positioned (if a little hard to find) and works perfectly as an eraser, making the Note Air's note taking software even smoother to operate. - High Quality: the aluminium body of the Lamy is light (I initially thought it was plastic) and strong, and the lid protects the pen when you're not using it. The pocket clip is also very strong. - Comfortable: the thickness of the Lamy body and the sculpted shape of the nib area of the pen is all nice and comfortable in use. Cons: - Storage: without magnets, and very chunky, the Lamy has no natural storage place on the Note Air or its case. Fortunately, the clip is strong enough to clip the Lamy to your bag or shirt or whatever, just like a normal pen. - Price: I think the Lamy is decent value, but it's more than $0 extra, which is what the standard pen costs you. Having said that, I think the Lamy is a decent investment for its usability across multiple platforms, including Chromebooks, Samsung phones and tablets, other e-notes, and WACOM pads. Conclusion: If you have a Note Air and you use the pen at all for note taking or sketching, this is worth buying: it will certainly improve your experience of the Note Air.

This was an investment, as it's expensive for a tablet stylus. However, from experience I think it's worth every penny. Two reasons: a) It's by far the best stylus I've used with my re:Markable2 tablet. It actually feels like using a pen on paper, and you can write at normal handwriting speed with it, unlike the many cheap £10-£15 stylii out there. This alone makes it worth it, as it actually makes writing on the re:Markable a pleasure. b) It's WAY more comfortable to hold inthe hand than the thin "stick" stylii that fill the chap end of the market. Not a big deal for a few scribbles, but using those things gets tiresome if you're writing out a brain dump over many pages. Infact it's like writing with a decent rollerball pen, such as the ArtLine's, which are particularly pleasurable to write with. If I had one minor criticism, it's that the clip is a bit too big to fit on the side of the folio case I have for my re:Markable. However, that's a personal preference as I travel a lot, and if I used it only at home, or I had a case with a place to clip it to, it's not a big deal, and can be remedied by buying a case that has this (I bought my case before buying the stylus). On the bonus side, it also comes with two replacement nibs, which is even better as I chose this because I'd already read that the nibs are long lasting. Summary: Expensive, but worth it. If you have a re:Markable2, you'll enjoy using this stylus with it.

クアデルノ2nd用に使用。付属ペンは細いので、このペンに変える事でかなり書きやすくなりました。芯を金属(チタン)性のに変えると、更に芯を変える手間が無くなりいい感じです。

Buon prodotto, fa il lavoro per il quale l'ho acquistata per sostituire penna del Surface vecchio modello. Soddisfatta!!
