Review: Works with Dell Inspiron 7445 and Microsoft Surface Laptop 6 - Works with Dell Inspiron 7445 and Microsoft Surface Laptop 6 I got tired of having constant problems with the Dell active pen. Someone in a forum mentioned that they gave up and tried the Wacom pen instead. Based on my experience, they were right. I can confidently say Dell's problem is their pen which is a shame. This pen is also compatible with my Microsoft Surface Laptop - you just have to hold both buttons to switch mode. The Dell pen and Microsoft pens are not cross-compatible, so that's a nice feature if you use both types of devices. The Wacom pen is far more responsive than the Dell pen. There's less lag time between bringing the pen to the screen and the laptop recognizing it and starting to ink. The tip has a bit less friction which I don't love, but that's a personal preference. The Pen doesn't come with any replacement or alternative nibs, but you can buy them separately. I don't see a lot of variance in pressure sensitivity, but it's there. Could be a configuration adjustment on my end. Generally speaking, I'm very satisfied. I have a couple nitpicks, although nothing that's worth lowering my rating: First, no bluetooth connectivity. That makes sense when you realize there's no shortcut button ("eraser" button). I feel that's basic functionality for an active pen these days, but alas, apparently not. Likewise, one thing that I liked about my Microsoft pen is that the top of the pen actually acts as an eraser. I have strong muscle memory of flipping a pencil, so it has taken me a little time to get used to the eraser button on the side, and not accidentally hitting that button while I'm writing. Last - The pen came with a recommendation to install software from Wacom. I installed that software and it broke my driver for my touch screen. I ended up having to remove the software and delete the device in device manager so that it would revert back to the correct driver after a reboot. Everything's back to normal now, but it's annoying that I can't install their software without them trying to install their own driver. Review: Great pen - It works great and I had no issues connecting the pen to my Omnibook, overall very happy with my purchase. ## Features - Write naturally: Bamboo Ink features a sensitive fine tip with up to 4,096 pressure levels - Compatibility with majority of Windows 10 devices with touch screen - Tap to launch Windows Ink Workspace – no pairing needed - Works with both Wacom Active ES protocol and Microsoft Pen Protocol (MPP) - Sturdy aluminum design to withstand everyday use ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B081LKC91V | | Average Battery Life (in hours) | 15 months | | Batteries | 1 AAAA batteries required.

I have the V60. It works great! I use it constantly! If it does not detect the pen at first, It is Microsoft surface mode. To correct, press and hold both buttons until the light between them turns on. **Q: Does the pressure sensitivity work for procreate app on ipad?** A: Don’t think this pen would on iPad anything. It’s a windows stylus. At least it doesn’t on any of my iPads. **Q: Will it work with Lenovo c740?** A: I have this model and it works on my C740-151ML **Q: Does this pen happen to be compatible with the samsung galaxy flex2 alpha??** A: Yes, this stylus is compatible with the Samsung galaxy note flex 2 alpha! I looked high and low for this answer. Samsung did not make it easy lol. But I eventually found a helpful youtube video review of the laptop that linked to some compatible stylus pens and this was one of them. I bought it and it works well! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with Dell Inspiron 7445 and Microsoft Surface Laptop 6 *by J***G on September 29, 2025* Works with Dell Inspiron 7445 and Microsoft Surface Laptop 6 I got tired of having constant problems with the Dell active pen.

I have the Lenovo Yoga 6 13ALC6 and my old pen, the Lenovo Lazarite M pen, stopped working yesterday out of nowhere. I rushed to buy this Bamboo Ink stylus because I found out it was compatible, and to my surprise, I liked it more than I expected. I bought it Used, like new and I think it was definitely worth it! It was MUCH cheaper, lighter, and even came with a AAAA Energizer battery compared to my old pen! Also, it connected to my laptop almost immediately. The only downfall I would say is that when using the stylus, the pen is a little laggy and because the pen is very light, it also feels a little tacky/ cheap. Nonetheless, it’s definitely worth the buy if you ask me. ## Frequently Bought Together - Wacom Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus for Windows Ink Second Generation CS323AG0A, Grey, Small - Duracell AAAA 1.5V Ultra Photo Alkaline Batteries, 2 Count Pack, AAAA 1.5 Volt Alkaline Battery, Long-Lasting for Cameras, Glucose and Blood Monitors, and More - ANVOW Smart AAAA Battery Charger with 2 Counts Rechargeable AAAA Batteries - Ni-MH 1.2V 400mAh 1200 Cycles Surface Pen Active Stylus Rechargables Battery --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/168796677-bamboo-ink-smart-stylus-for-windows-ink-second-generation-cs323ag0a](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/168796677-bamboo-ink-smart-stylus-for-windows-ink-second-generation-cs323ag0a) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
