CommunityĪ more in-depth version of the rules can be found here Weight in general is also important: A stylus that’s too heavy cramps your hand over time, and one that’s too light suffers from the same problems as a slicker pen nib-you don’t have the same control over your lines.Welcome to r/Apple, the unofficial community for Apple news, rumors, and discussions. This is especially true for styluses that don’t support palm rejection, which means you have to keep your hand upright over the pen. Balance and weight: A stylus’s weight should be distributed evenly along its body-a stylus with most of its weight at the nib and little at the other end (or vice versa) is uncomfortable to hold and difficult to control. (Image credit: Wacom, Logitech) The Apple Pencil is a lovely thing for scribbling and sketching, annotating and illustrating.If it’s too sticky, you might make erroneous marks or get sore hands from gripping the stylus more tightly to drag it across the screen. If the nib is too slick, you don’t have the line control that you might get with a pen on a piece of paper. Resistance: A good stylus offers the right amount of friction between the nib (drawing end) of the stylus and the iPad’s screen.However, if a stylus cramped a tester’s hand or dug into skin, we dropped that model from consideration, and if we found it impossible to grip a stylus without dragging a hand on the screen or contorting our fingers, we eliminated that contender. Comfort: Recommending a single stylus design and grip for everyone is difficult some people prefer a thicker body, for example, while others want rubberized grips or angled grip surfaces.Advanced features: More advanced stylus models include features such as palm rejection, tilt support, and pressure sensitivity, which make for a better drawing and writing experience.While you’re drawing, the stylus should ink over the same line precisely and repeatedly, and the line on the screen should closely stick to the stylus’s tip without noticeable lag. Precision: A stylus should write consistently, without overlapping letters or inconsistent vertical spacing.
