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

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.

I have been using this pen on my new Kindle Scribe 2024 for a number of hours only (received it this morning) and I do like it indeed. The unique thing about it for me is that it has a 0.35 mm tip, compared to the regular 0.70 mm. The built quality seems good so far, but it's too early to judge, isn't it? The Function Button is convenient and responsive, the grip is also good and comfortable. As far as I know, this is the only digital stylus with a classic pen design out there, which is also unique. Only issue with this pen is that its brand name will always remind me of our spineless Foreign Minister.

My Onyx Nova Air pen broke and I needed a replacement, I chose this because of the cap, as I’m hoping to protect the pen in the future. It’s a very well made pen, writes beautifully, but it is a lot thinner than my old Onyx Boox pen. The erase button is very useful.

I absolutely love this stylus! I should add that I have been a user of Lamy fountain pens for as long as I can remember, mainly the Al-Star or Safari, and have built up a reasonable collection of them over the years. My 14 year old son also loves Lamy's fountain pens and uses them all the time at school. As such, when the time came for us to try an e-ink tablet, mainly for note-taking, my big fear was that the included Styli'i would be terrible, and so they were. I tried a Kindle Scribe and a Boox Air 2 Plus, and tried the included stylus which shipped with both. Apart from being far too thin for my chunky paws, they really didn't write that well. Given that Kindle and Boox both use Wacom EMR tech for writing which allows any compatible stylus to work on any EMR device (not iPads though which are not EMR), I tried the Boox stylus on Kindle and vice versa and in each case the result was sub-optimal. I was about to send back both tablets and consign digital notetaking to the 'it was a good idea at the time' category of dismal failures, when I happened across the Lamy Al-Star EMR on Amazon, and bought it for a really reasonable price compared to the (overly expensive) OEM options which had shipped with the tablets themselves. Inside 18 hours (a super fast delivery), I had the reassuring heft of at Lamy in my hand again, and I completely fell in love with digital writing. It is completely compatible with both devices, and as I then chose to keep the Scribe and return the Boox, I then configured the Lamy button (which is beautifully positioned for me at least) within the Kindle settings to provide me with the eraser function. Other functions seem to configure just fine too. The writing experience is excellent, far superior to Kindle's own stylus, it is brilliantly well made, and compatible with other Al-Star pens if you want to give the body and cap a colour change, however I see that a widened range of EMR's is coming soon from Lamy. It feels like my old faithful has had the digital transformation it needed to see us happily working together long into the future, and so for me the Lamy is super highly recommended. My 14 year old loves it too, which worries me as I think he now has designs on my Scribe...

The pen has a good thickness to it so it feels good to hold. I previously had the remarkable pen which feels very light in comparison. The pen feels solid and it works well with the remarkable nibs. I actually do like the nib it came with which has a pointy tip. I'm interested to find out how long the Lamy nibs will last in comparison to the remarkable ones. Having tested just on the remarkable tablet RM1, I can only give feedback that the pen is just as good as the original rekarkable pen. There are no delays or weird hapoenings. It works the same. The only difference is the feel of the pen and the quality of the pen. I purchased this pen because my Remarkable pen had a bit chip off by the nib which stopped itnfrom working and super glue brought it back to life for a short period but the plastic was weak. The Lamy seems a lot stronger and it is cheaper than buying a replacement Remarkable pen (marker). 1 thing that is a bit annoying (On Remarkable) there is a button where you hold the pen and sometimes, i press that button and on the Remarkable it created a straight line away from where you was writting. A bit strange but annoying at times. It depends on how you hold it but after a lot of writting insend to move my grip on the pen, i can probably adapt but i wished the button just did nothing.

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.

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...

Great for my remarkable!

Works great, really feel like a pen, very light also.
