LAMY 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

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.

I took a chance and picked this up after having a better than expected experience with the Norris Stadler EMR stylus. I really didn’t think it would be much better than the Kindle scribe basic stylist but I was wrong. Now I’m trying to be careful not to go nuts with aftermarket styluses. Anyway, the Lamy stylus feels great in the hand, looks nice and the side button functionality, which I don’t get on my basics Kindle stylus, is a big improvement. When you’re writing a lot, you need a quick way to erase rather than using the on screen command bar. So I will never go back to a basic stylus. I had a Lamy fountain pen already and I would say the quality is there for this brand. Obviously it does not fit into a typical Kindle scribe protection case, but it is totally worth it to have around. I do agree that the Lamy stylus nib has a unique feel and I actually swapped the nib out for a Kindle nib Which I absolutely prefer more. This is the kind of thing that is hard to explain. Certainly you should not let that stop you from buying the Lamy because you can easily swap out the nib for one that has a feel you prefer. The overall body is better and more comfortable. I happen to get mine when there was a price drop so I feel satisfied with the value for money, though I do think a lot of styluses are overpriced at the moment. Hopefully we will get a much better range of EMR styluses in the future as the fountain pen industry has gotten better priced fountain pens overtime.

If you like Lamy pens you will love this device. It works across all e-ink devices (Remarkable and BooX). The only reason I'm giving this four out of five stars when it comes to value for money is that the nibs that are included feel kind of slippery and not nearly as good as those that are included with the pens that come with the remarkable or onyx tablets. Once you put the remarkable nibs or the onyx onyx in it it feels fantastic, the best stylus I have tied. The good thing about this is that this pen is cross compatible so you can use your preferred nib, and the eraser function works on all devices, except the remarkable. But that seems to be a problem with the remarkable, as it doesn't seem accept eraser on any third-party pens. This pen is not cheap, but in comparison with the competition it is good value for money, although that's not the reason why I bought this. I thought this because I a bit more "substantial" pens than those that come with the tablets. And since I know the shape and quality of this particular brand I decided to try it and I really like it. This is a quality built and the only thing I regret about this purchase is not having bought two of them. And if there was a choice of colours I would probably buy one or two more. If you're in the market for a stylus just get one.

Works great!

Shipping and delivery was relatively quick. I bought a Remarkable 2 and I have been trying to find the best after-market stylus. After some research I tested out 3 different ones. Staedtler Noris Jumbo, Lamy Al-Star, and the Tab 7 SPen (already owned). I ended up keeping all of them. The Lamy Al-Star has a real quality feel and a comfortable ergonomic handling. There is a good weight to the Lamy and it does not feel as thin in my hand as the SPens, allowing me to write or draw longer. The pen came with additional nibs but the Remarkable 2's nibs fit in the Lamy Al-Star perfect, it truly becomes my ideal writing tool for the Remarkable except for one thing. The responsiveness, accuracy, and durability all seem great but the Lamy does not fit in the pen holder for the case I have, the Staedtler does. Both are great but one may work better depending on what you need.

Five stars because it does feel good in the hand. The writing experience on the Supernote Manta and the Viwoods AI Paper is excellent. In fact, I like it a bit better than the Lamy pen with ceramic tip (which is a standard pen choice with Supernote). I will say that the balance takes a few moments to get used to. The black Lamy, which is the one I’m reviewing, is taller than the Supernote Lamy. If the pen could push in a bit more into the cap, that would be nice. At first, I was put off. But, now I don’t notice it. I like the softer tip on the black Lamy, but that is user preference.

The Goods: - Weight is solid as I'm quite the heavy writer - Tip Size is right where it's perfect for precision and writing. - The comfort of this stylus is unmatched than any other EMR stylus I have used, it's fantastic. The Bad: - Despite the cost of the pen it began to fall apart for me. I have lost the button and the clip is alot more loose than it should be. - I keep the pen in my tablet case, which does get thrown around like a punching bag so I'm unsure how this damage occured. I wish my pen didn't get beat up, as I brought this only a few months back. It didn't even last a year in my hands.

I still have to get find a better pen. Works perfectly with the tab s11 Samsung. Easily fits various tips including the metal ones here from Amazon. And the plastic ones.

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.

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

J'ai choisi ce stylo au lieu de ceux proposés par reMarkable et suite à mon expérience mitigée avec le Staedtler Noris Jumbo pourtant équipé d'une gomme. Avec le Lamy j'ai vraiment l'impression d'écrire avec un feutre sur du papier ! La pointe fournie est extrêmement précise au point de permettre la reprise d'un trait exactement où on l'a interrompu, cela sans trace de reprise ; un exploit avec de l'encre électronique ! Et le fait qu'il ait un capuchon de protection compense l'absence de gomme. Astuce pour gommer beaucoup plus précisément qu'avec l'outil gomme standard : choisissez dans le menu un mode stylo puis sélectionnez la couleur de trait blanche. Vous pourrez ainsi effacer vos tracés avec la finesse d'un trait de stylo, ce qui est pour le moment impossible avec l'outil gomme ! Et certains ont trouvé le moyen de hacker l'OS pour utiliser le bouton du stylo et l'affecter à un second stylo ce qui laisse entrevoir l'idée...

Funciona muy bien en la libreta de tinta digital
