Metapen Stylus Pen M2 for Surface Premium 4096 Finest Control Eraser End - Compatible with Surface Pro 7

I've been using this pen for several months now and I can definitely say this is a VERY good pen. The M2 feels quite comfortable in hand much like an apple pencil and writes with no lag. The nibs are solid plastic, but not too hard where it'd damage the screen and they rotate on the head of the pen to "roll" across the screen to reduce friction. However, using a "paperlike" or textured screen protector REALLY wears down the nibs fast, so stick with a bare screen or regular glass protector if you'd like to have some longevity to your pen nibs. Switching nibs is pretty easy, just pull em out and pop them in. The M2 also has a stronger magnet than the normal Microsoft surface pen to keep it attached to the device (mine usually stays mounted firmly on the side when not in use). No software or drivers needed to get things going, just hover it over the screen and it's good to go. While it would be nice to have some software to adjust things like pen pressure or remap the eraser/side button, it overall functions just fine for my needs. It charges via USB-C and I typically top off the battery between drawing or while taking a break, typically less than 15-30mins at a time. I typically use my surface for drawing and animating on the go rather than just taking notes, so having a good pen is very important to make the experience more comfortable and to maintain decent workflow for art purposes. One thing I CANNOT stand from most non-wacom styluses is lag and poor accuracy, so the responsiveness of this pen is notably very good for an MMP device. Attached are a couple of doodles I've made with the M2 and my "set up" with the Go and M2 for size comparison. While tools don't make the artist, they certainly can help and this pen makes my drawings on my travel device near indiscernible from quick sketches made on my wacom display tablet and desktop set up. I'd argue this pen is even better than the standard surface pen, especially for the price point. Bonus, it comes with a few extra nibs and some metapen stickers lol Read more

I bought a MS Surface Pro 11 and put a screen protector on it. I tried 3 different pens on it: the MS Surface Pen Slim, which was $100 on sale, and the HP Active Rechargeable Tilt Pen MPP 2, which is normally $70, but I got for $50, and this one, which I got for $34. Both the HP and the MS pens felt VERY rough when writing on the Surface Pro with a screen protector, to the point that I hated using them! The Metapen was smooth as silk! And the functionality is seamless; there is no setup! You just start writing on the screen and it works! Flip it around and it works as an eraser! The button is used as a "right click". WAY cheaper AND better user experience! It's a no-brainer! Read more

Really great stylus. It makes me wonder why there aren't more competitive options in this price range. I've been using it on my HP Omnibook X Flip for a couple weeks now. While this laptop isn't officially supported, it uses the MPP protocol and is therefore compatible. There are just issues with magnet alignment, so I can't securely attach the pen to the side of the laptop like usual. (this laptop has so many magnets that I could slap it anywhere though) As for the pen itself, it works wonderfully. I havent had any issues with drawing or notetaking apps struggling to recognize it--pressure sensitivity, eraser, and all. Battery life has also been fairly reasonable. The only time I've had to charge it was when I first got it, and I'd say it's gotten a good 20-30 hours of use so far. It's hard to give an exact estimate because it automatically turns off. Also, I think the side button requires a bit too much actuation force. It's not a big deal, but it means I have to tense my hand more often than I'd like. My only feasible gripes are the lack of included nibs and how easily the paint finish gets chipped by metal. It already has a couple of scratches on the ends from sitting in my bag with my laptop, which isn't the end of the world, but it stands out against the dark gray color. Either way, this was a way better deal than HP's $80 pen or whatever. Good stuff, please keep it up. Read more

Worked well! I use Ubuntu 25 and have a computer with touch screen. Doesn’t take Bluetooth and is pressure sensitive. I use a framework computer so finding something that will connect is hard. I recommend for a cheap but good stylus Read more

Good quality stylus. Works great with my surface. Read more

Works great with my Asus Zenbook! Charged it up and worked quickly. Easy to install, and the erase button function on the back is quite a nice little feature. Read more

Works great connected with no issues. Read more

I pencil seemed promising, but felt lacking and not 100% satisfactory. The weight of the pencil is rather light, making it not feel “quality” as I’m used to in a stylus pencil. When using it, there were moments where the input didn’t register while I was drawing. Also, the dot that appears when the pencil is hovering over the screen is laggy, making the experience less favorable. Read more
