What's The Best Tablet Stylus?


If you have a tablet, you may use it to take notes, or even do some drawing from time to time. If you do, a good tablet stylus can be a huge benefit. This week, we want to know which tablet stylii you think are the best, most comfortable, and most accurate.

Not all stylii are alike, and while we've talked about how to make your own in the past, sometimes there's no replacing a well-designed one if you're trying to take notes in class, annotate documents, or just do a little doodling to pass the time. Let's hear your favorites in the discussions below!

The call for contenders is closed! To see which of your nominees earned enough support to make it to the final five, head over to our Hive Five feature, the Five Best Tablet Styli! Don't forget to cast your vote for our all-out winner!

Let's hear your vote in the discussions below! To cast your vote, follow these guidelines:

  1. Follow this format for your vote, including the bold print. If you don't, it won't be counted:

  3. Vote: [BEST TABLET STYLUS]

  4. Why: Why is this stylus the one you think is the best? Maybe it works on the most screens, or it's the easiest to handle, or it's just affordable and easy to use. Make your case! Try to keep it to a single paragraph, maybe two.

  5. Don't duplicate nominations! Instead, if someone's nominated your pick, star (recommend) it to give it a boost, and reply with your story instead.

  6. Please don't leave non-entry, direct comments on this post. They'll just get pushed down. Save your stories for others' submissions!

If you're not sure what we mean, just check out the nominations by our writers below. We'll give you a head start, and they should all be in the proper format, so you can just follow our lead.
