ChaoQ Stylus Pen, 4 Pcs Hybrid Mesh Fiber Tip Stylus Pens and Ballpoint Pens for Touch Screen Devices with 6 Extras Mesh Fiber Tips 6 Rubber Tips (4 Pens and 12 Tips) - Black, White, Red, Blue

Great as pen and stylus, apparently well constructed, a lot of nice touches I'd have appreciated at twice the price. ChaoQ are the first stylus-ink pens I've seen in the right form factor with all the features I want at a reasonable price. Highly recommended based on what I've seen today, but I just got them - details follow.I mislaid one of a pair of stylus pens I got about 5 years ago and have with me constantly, figured it was time for some backup. These ChaoQ pens ticked the right boxes for me - a pen that takes standard refills with a mesh fabric capacitive stylus on top and a pocket clip. At $10 for a set of 4 along with 4 refills each of mesh and rubber stylus tips, along with solid reviews, it wasn't much of a risk, and the variety color pack seemed like a fun option.I'll update this review if my opinion changes with experience using them, but I have to say, these really exceeded my expectations. The pens have a smooth, solid-feeling Cross-style twist action (kinda comes with the territory for pens using Cross refills, but there are a lot of cheap Cross-nots that get this wrong). They're quite a bit thicker than typical Cross pens, more like a Parker Jotter in cross-section, which I really prefer anyway; these feel great in the hand as pen or stylus (those who like "Cross skinny" may want to take note). The red and blue (near indigo) colors are rich-looking, with an iridescent-metallic appearance, while the pocket clips are neither too tight/rigid nor too flimsy. The ink pens write smoothly as well. There are about a half-dozen ways to disappoint me in a ballpoint pen, and these ChaoQ pens manage to avoid all of them; it's probably the nicest $2.50 pen I've ever had.It also seems to be a very good stylus, the fabric sliding easily across the screen while the tip is firm enough to tap check boxes or other selections without having to mash it into the screen. The mechanism for securing the tip to the top of the pen (push the tip onto a post in the middle of the threaded top, then secure with a screw-on collar) works well. I have hopes this will prove stable over time (capacitive tips on my old pens were a bit more elaborate, but tended to loosen themselves without a drop of LocTite on the threads).If this is the kind of thing you're looking for, I'd just grab these. If a family member could use a dual-purpose pen/stylus or two, these would also make great stocking-stuffers.

I search and search for the perfect stylus and this one comes pretty darn close! It has two different size tips and rests comfortably in my hands. It works very well. I only wish the pen portion was a little thicker as the smaller pens cause my hands to cramp.

Handy & Comfortable in Hand! Writes well also.I bought as have an Apple Watch & a Fitbit Versa 2 that are both picky about accurate 4 digit PIN entries.The device face on each = not small but also = not large.With 4 of these (home, office, car and in purse, I’m equipped to access easily and quickly.I also have an aging iPad which is very responsive to touch commands with these.And finally - the collective price for 4 with this quality is both fair and easily affordable.Note: this is now a few wks later and I am reordering another 4 of these tablet, and compatible f/Fitbit, Apple Watch convenience that both write well & w/fluidity in small spaces w/o being too fine point.I’m ordering more as I note I specifically now reach for one of these out of another small pile of pen function only that I also like.Kudos to this company that meets all criteria I seek.

As my review headline said, these are excellent pens with excellent mesh styluses (with replacement styluses) for an incredible price. In fact I challenge you to find a pen like this at almost any price, let alone for $2.50 each (and less with the volume discount for buying multiple sets). It has just enough weight to feel solid but light enough to be easily maneuverable. I am extremely impressed which is why I bought a few sets just to make sure that if they stop being made I have a stash for several years.

So much better than the rubber tips. Much easier to use !!
