Lamy AL-star EMR Digital Stylus Pen Black

This is very good

Product not advertised properly - its very poor use

If you really liked holding a Safari when writing, sure go for it, else I can't say it's a strong buy. Even the EMR/Ballpoint switching didn't do it for me, mostly because 1) I prefer having an eraser and 2) I prefer a more pencilly feel when writing and drawing with my EMR tablets.

J'avais déjà le Lamy Al-Star EMR qui est parfaitement compatible avec le ReMarkable et procure une excellente expérience d'écriture avec les embouts ReMarkable. Malheureusement le Twin PEN ne fonctionne pas avec les embouts ReMarkable et les embouts POM de Lamy sont trop souples pour être précis.

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.
