The Surface 3 (and Pro 3) Pen - How it works and a look at what is inside

whats with the glitches, were you streaming?

Hi!
I have a question:

if I use the surface pen in another screen (not a surface device, I mean, an HP convertible laptop) it works well? I need to find some stylus to use it in StaffPad app (to write music).

Thanks for the info!

Cheers!

Thanks! That helped me fix my surface pro pen.

Wacom has been and still is the marked leader for a good reason. If the Ntrig pen technology is so much better, then why am I unable to slowly drag a smooth diagonal line on the Surface (Pro) 3? It ends up all wobbly and messed up, only the horizontal en vertical lines are good, or you have to swipe the pen fast over the screen. Never had this problem with Wacom

Great video! REALLY well done.

Very nice video!! I need some help, i have the same pen but the lowr part (powered by 4A) doesnt work at all, only the bluetooth buttom works. I already changed the batteries, any solutions?

I'm starting to think I don't have a surface pro 3... I mean, i know i bought it on amazon but my surface pro has a very big difference of what i see on surface pro 3 videos, for example, the 'eraser' of my pen is not purple, and when i press the home button, it is layed out differently; for me it pops up from the bottom left corner, and for other people it's a full on screen with gadgets and apps, i looked at the other surface pro's and none of them seemed similar to my computer. If you know what type of surface pro i have, please tell me :)

This was a very informative video. Thank you for taking the time to show us this.

If you need a AAAA Battery in a pinch you can just get a standard 9V and open it to find 6 AAAA batteries...

Hey Brett, thanks for the video. I have a couple of questions:
1) There doesn't seem to be any noticeable lag while inking in the video. Does pen work just as well with the Surface 3?
2) Is the pen accurate enough for thin, small writing, like you would write in a ruled notebook?
Thanks!

Can you change the eraser button to open a different program? Also can you use the eraser button to erase things when it's rubbed against the screen in onenote? That would be cool.

Hello! Does this pen work with the Surface Pro (the original)?

do you think it's quiet enough that you can use it during lectures, without bothering the person sitting next to you? And do you know if the surface 4 pen is quieter?

Hello oztabletpc, I appreciate your videos, they've made me finally decide to buy the Surface. My only question I have that I haven't heard anyone say anything about is while writing with the pen, if the side of your hand touches the screen will the screen respond? or do you just have to write carefully.

Will this work with a 2 in 1 hp laptop?

Really helpful video, cheers!

Anybody else a 'left hander'? I find my hand always hits the 'Start button' so makes the pen pretty difficult to use as the start menu pops up or the apps move about

Hello, does the surface pen work with any other application other than One note?

How do you like the Samsung S pen for their Galaxy Note devices?

Oztabletpc Would this pen work on the Asus TP500LA-AS53T? i am trying to find a pen that will work with this computer any help?
