The best stylus that you can buy

By far and away the best stylus that you can buy.
Usage:
I am manager by trade, so I am constantly taking notes. I also work in a technical industry, so I am constantly drawing technical diagrams and flowcharts. A while ago, I decided to break free from my shelf full of notebooks and make my iPad my one-stop-shop for all work related notes.
The Good:
The heft and balance of this stylus is second to none. I can say this as I have owned more than 10 different models. Most were cheaper in cost, though a couple were more expensive. A good stylus needs to feel good in your hand. You have to want to use it and not be hindered by it. This is my go-to product for note taking, technical drawing and even fun sketching.
I have countless hours using this stylus and the tip is the same as the day I bought it. Wear on the tip was my biggest complaint with other similar products.
The contour of the tip is perfect. Other stylus tend to have a fatter tip making it impossible to write or draw with any semblance of ease. This stylus fixes that. I am not sure how they decided on the shape for the tip, or chose the materials, but the research behind it is evident.
The Bad:
This stylus is a pricey option when compared to the competition, but the price is not prohibitive if you were to use it every day. The amount of money that I have spent on other, cheaper stylus that are not as useful is far greater than my investment in this product.
Final Words:
Do yourself a favor and buy this product. If you envision a future where you no longer have to lug around notebook after notebook and want to make the digital transition, you will be hard-pressed to find a better product to take you on that journey. Learn from my experience and save yourself a lot of money. Buy this stylus and avoid the competition. You won't be sorry with your investment.

Doesn't work

I tried various pressures to get the stylus to work using Sketchbookpro on an IPAD. But most times it did not create a mark until I had move the stylus over 1/2 inch. Sometimes I would move the stylus several inches without any drawing response on the pad. Conversely, when I used my finger to draw, there was an immediate line with no pressure required. So I am returning the stylus and will go to the store to find something that really works.

Tip ripped almost immediately.

Not bad, but not good. Within 10 hours of use practicing digital caricature, the silicon tip developed multiple tears.
It still worked, but I'm disappointed in the manufacturing and that no replacement tip was included. Also purchased the Kensington and have not had the same problem with that brand. iFaraday fabric tip stylus is my next trial. Bottom line, good for tapping, not so good for scribbling or drawing.
