Wacom Bamboo Tip: The BEST Stylus for ALL Phones and Tablets!

Wacom Bamboo Tip review! There are still plenty of times where someone might want finer control than what a fingertip can deliver. Wacom now offers a universal stylus for all capacitive screens, and best of all, it's rechargeable!

Why didn't you write something with the stylus? Using it to point and click a cursor is 10% of what a stylus is used for. I need a stylus to write notes, not play games.

I swear for a second i thought you were going to say "but steve jobs is dead".

Dude, you're talking way too much. Show me how it works.
I need to know how accurate the Bamboo Tip is, before I buy it.
But all you show is pictures and movement on a game.
What's up with you?
Nobody buys it for playing top-down-games. It's for writing and drawing - so please go on with a real review!

Tried it on a Galaxy Note 4. It was the closest stylus that could match what was practically built in to the Note itself. Considering that Wacom digitizer technology drives every Sammy devices that responds to a S Pen.

It would have been nice (just for completeness) if you had mentioned that neither of the styluses in this video supports pressure sensitivity.
And the only rechargeable batteries that should be bought, are Panasonic Eneloop. Before first use, charge them to full capacity (if needed at all) and do write down the date and time that you inserted them in your gadget. It’ll take months before a recharge is required. Almost a full year in my Logitech mouse+keyboard with 10+ hours daily use (AA size). And the mouse feels much more responsive (up until the battery runs out).

Get at least a blister or box of Eneloop with a mid 2017 manufacturing date to have the latest incremental Eneloop update (a.k.a. even better charge retention) included.

Unfortunately the digitizers in most smartphone and tablet screens are too low-resolution for the fine tips on the pens to be useful for precision drawing or handwriting. The non-Pro iPads have a resolution of *41x30*, which is 1/50th the resolution of the screen. It's decent enough for human fingers but nowhere near enough for fine-tip pens.

Been looking for ages for an active stylus and this one seems to tick all the boxes. A good test is to try to *slowly * draw diagonal lines. Most active stylus(es) can't properly handle diagonal lines and makes them very jaggy. Have you had any luck with this one?

[yashbutno]

When you say 'all' capacitive touchscreens, do you really mean all capacitive screens, or only the devices that support styli?

I'd like one of these but Amazon doesn't ship to my country. So many products I like but still can't purchase

5:05 what app are you using to edit the videos on your phone?

[leonardgallion]

BTW I think the pronunciation of Wacom consensus is "wah come" - the name is a mashing of the Japanese words Wa (harmony or circle) and Komu (the "com" part of "computer") ワコム

Great video as usual. I'm going to stick to the passive stylus. I can see the use for an artist or someone like you that has a clear benefit to using this device, but $50 is a lot for occasional use. I have a pen/stylus that's working for now, but I might look into a new one with a fine tip and wide tip in the future.

Will this work with Dell Inspiron 2 in 1, please? I'm struggling to find a pen that will that I can use for drawing:(

[stellaqaustralia]

Thx 👍 Battery vs Environment issue is a high priority for me too. Good on you.

My friend Jordan is giving me this phone Sunday! Jordan if you are reading here your the best

'Oh I think I'll get one of those' - *looks at price....*

Apple: All you need is your finger, but we won't put a touch screen on a MacBook.

Apple: All you need is your finger, but iPad pencil is a thing.

Obligatory apple rant aside.

I was about to ask why do you need a battery... But I guess it creates a electromagnetic field so pressing it against the screen is not needed?

[Mobile_Dom]

Interesting product, I wonder could you use this on the trackpad of a macbook (or, any laptop with a capacitive trackpad) for uses like PDF signing etc

[frankmckinley]

Just got this video on my feed. Great information thanks for the video.

[shrikantbadal]

Does it work with OnePlus 6T phone? Can you confirm from somewhere to me. Thanks bro
