![MEKO Universal Stylus,[2 in 1 Precision Series] Disc Stylus Touch Screen Pens for All Capacitive Touch Screens Cell Phones, Tablets, Laptops Bundle with 6 Replacement Tips - (2 Pcs, Black/Black)](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51Qsv55CITL.jpg)
My husband had a Samsung Note 4 for work at one point, which I would commandeer to draw on the awesome sketch program it had on it. The S pen is a wonderful thing. He left that company and had to return the phone. I recently got a Galaxy Tab A 9.7, but sadly without that lovely little docked pen. I then went on the search for a precision stylus and spent several weeks searching for form and function that was also a reasonable price. I read countless reviews of Bluetooth battery powered styli, and the non-battery counterparts. All claimed to be the best until I got to the reviews and often enough the hype and the price just didn't seem to pan out for them. Then I happened upon this little sparkly gem in the similar products section that Amazon so smartly includes on product pages. I was actually about to purchase a completely different stylus and by chance looked down. The price was in the range I was looking for. This was my first try on precision styli and didn't want to break the bank on something I may not like. Then I read the description. Then I got down to the reviews and I was sold. I too am beyond ecstatic about this purchase. These are FANTASTIC! They have an excellent weight in your hand which leads to a luxurious feel along with the nice padding on the precision end. The ease of changing from one type of tip to another is lovely and the protection that this gives the tips is equally as nice. Then you notice that you get 2 styli with tips already installed AND 2 fabric wide tip replacements AND 4 precision tip replacements. It is a deal that would be foolish to overlook, even if you were skeptical of something. They also throw in this neat little velvet screen cleaner that gets all the gunk off the screen so your lines don't skip around as you write or draw. Oh, and that little bonus can be washed for extended use! I could not be happier with this purchase.
It's pretty awesome! I love it, it's smooth and precise. I use it with a Samsung Tab4 7.0 and it works great. I use the stylus to draw and to write on my tablet and im impressed with the precision of the tip.
I've been using the Galaxy Note phones for a few years. I use my s-pen daily, but I'm switching to a Galaxy S8... no s-pen.
Galaxy S-Pen, nothing compares to it but these come close. Although, I wish they just had a tip at the end instead of that clunky disc. One of the stylus came scuffed, not sure how with that nice packaging but it's nit a huge deal for me.
It comes with extra tips. It's hard to believe the price is so low.
Update.
I've been doing some testing with this stylus as well as with the amPen and my Galaxy Note 5 S-Pen. Hands down the S-Pen is the best, but if you don't have a Note you can't use it. The Meko having 2 options are nice. The sponge end is smaller than on the amPen. The disc seems to provide a smaller tip but it's difficult to control, especially when hand writing, since you have to write slowly and make sure to completely lift to tip far enough from the screen or it leaves a trail. Also, the disc tip doesn't work for the back button. The sponge end works fine for it.
*I know my penmanship is terrible.
I feel like I’ll have to be more gentle with the disk as it’s held on by thin rubber. However, this comes with 4 disk replacements (in addition to the 2 already installed in the pens) and 2 mesh replacement (in addition to the 2 already installed. Also, there’s a “cap” that is perfect for keeping it safe on the go. I do wish that it was a “click” secure cap instead of a screw on, but it doesn’t take too long to uncap anyway.
I’ll update when I’ve used it regularly for a better review.
Love it!

I've been in the market for a fine-tip stylus pen for quite a while and now that I'm back in school, I thought it was time to finally buy one. This set was on my recommended list, so I checked the reviews and most were positive. I am pleasantly surprised by how well these styluses write! I tried out a few little drawings and they came out decent. Better than by finger or the stylus that came with my phone. Unfortunately, they do not seem to work on my Windows 10 Insignia tablet. I'm disappointed, but I have another tablet and a smartphone that can use them.
I decided to see how these styluses compare to the stylus that came with my android phone. While they both write clearly, it's obvious that the MEKO is a little more fluid and precise. The phone stylus was more difficult to control the curve of the letters. The letters appear more bloated in the second example. I'd definitely recommend this stylus to anyone looking for something for writing notes or drawing. I'm pleased that so many replacement nibs were sent with the set. Definitely worth the price and it came with a screen cleaning cloth. A plus for someone that tends to lose them!
Updated review
I'm updating my review because I have returned from my three day convention and on one day alone I took five "pages" of notes. This stylus is pretty consistent and I'm pleased, it still skips a little (I'm still using the bent tip) and the slippery mesh tip squeaks. I keep my screen very clean the cleaner the screen the louder the squeak, it's a little irritating! No product is perfect so I won't hold it against the company. Would I buy this product again? Yes, until my conscience will allow me to pay a ridiculous amount of money for an Apple Pencil, that's not going to happen anytime soon!!! This stylus is affordable and does the job.
****************************************************************************************
Since I purchased my tablet (2 years ago) I have been using two separate stylus, one stylus was specifically for taking notes and the other was for everything else (scrolling, tapping, games, etc.). When I found the Meko stylus I was excited about the chance to have one stylus that fits my needs. For note taking purposes I have been using the Notier Musemee and I'm a big fan but what I like about this stylus is that it is comfortable to hold and write with, it didn't feel like it is slipping out of my hand. It is also quieter than my other stylus, I could not hear it gliding across my screen protector. Sunday was the real test when I took notes during a 30 minute discourse. I did find that durning that time the stylus skipped 6 times. It may be human error as I have to get use to the feel of it, time will tell as I take extensive notes every Sunday. The mesh tip was interesting as I'm used to using the low end Tagrus stylus that break after a few weeks. It felt a little slippery on the screen and requires a lot more pressure than the rubber tip but again I'm not yet use to it. I have a three day convention coming up so I may update this review.
What I don't like about this stylus is that already my precision tip is bent, that may be why it is skipping. I'm still on my original tip with my Notier (2 years of use), I'm not heavy handed so I wonder if this is a defect. I gave the black stylus to my husband so if it hold up to his heavy hands then I will know it's a good product his last stylus lasted about a week.
These are precisely what you expect from an above-average stylus for your tablet. I'm so tired of shoddy options: rubber nibs tear or degrade, the plastic tip brakes, conductivity is minimal, OR it's difficult to vary "touch" from "press". I have purchased (and returned) two different brands of styluses within the last year, that were supposed to be of higher-than-average quality (and in the same price bracket as the Meko).
After this I had resigned to finger my devices from hereon, but something about that ugly-flattish metallic orange Meko stylus caught my attention. They were Prime purchases, came with a total of 2 pens, and included additional tips/caps. I've been using my favorite orange-stylus for almost two months now and I'm happy to report it is still physically fit -- no replacement tips and no repairs needed! Yes, these stylish styluses show-off the recent trend of "trendy" apple-esque packaging. They come in black, svelte box that I will keep and array of parts, THE STYLUS WORKS WONDERFULLY!!!
Both ends can be used as a stylus for touch screen interfacing. (Let's refer to these as Broad and Fine ends) I have used these pens easily with the Microsoft Surface 3 tablet as well as various (old & new) Apple devices that I own. To use the Fine end, you must first remove the screw-on cap. (but WAIT! Someone on their design team should get a promotion for this: the cap screws ONTO the Broad, opposite end so you won't misplace it while you're using the stylus!) The interchangeable caps are fast, simple and secure.
I would classify the overall precision as >good< (for the Broad end) and >excellent< (for the Fine end). Admittedly, I'm not a graphic artist and thus my classification of this attribute could be way off.. be forewarned! But for the casual user these tips will easily fill the pixels they wish them to travel.
CON - I'll go ahead and describe the only negative item I can come up with: If you affix the caps too snugly on either end, the replaceable tips may Unscrew along with them. Easy to undo and refasten. This CON could just as easily fall under "user-error" as well...
The casing is metal. NOT PLASTIC. But actual metal (or a metal alloy, I didn't chemically examine it). Which means the stylus has some weight and is very solid feeling. It is, however, well balanced. (No one wants their stylus getting top-heavy as they drift off to sleep playing Hearthstone - ever elusive once they slip under the mattress...)
That's it for my review -- I don't leave a ton of feedback, and this may be my first POSITIVE one on Amazon. [I'm beginning to have second thoughts on my choice of color. I keep peeking on the item page for the PINK-metallic colored stylus and I can't get it out of my head, ugh!!)
I'm happy to respond to questions or comments about my review or the Meko stylus pens I own.
Thanks!
I was very impressed with the quality of these pens. I was worried after reading some reviews that they may not work on my IPad with a screen protector, but I have no problem at all and I do not have to press hard for the pen part to work through the glass protector. The wire end, one does have to press harder than the pen side, but it didn't matter if the protector was on or off of the IPad.
