It needs less pressure than any rollerball, capillary drawing pen, calligraphy pen, soft 4B pencil, charcoal or paint marker or brush I've used. I've done calligraphy off and on for decades since learning it at school. I've made rook quill pens (the word pen comes from the Latin for quill, and the predecessor of the pencil case was for quills & ink and called a penner).

Despite being soft plastic so as to not scratch the screen I think the tips are longer lasting than quills. Also I've never had to wipe tip residue off the Sage screen. The buttons mean it needs much less wiping than the Elipsa.

Hi, maybe you’re just trying to work out why my experience is so different than yours, but I need you to stop explaining my experience to me. I used Wacom styluses for years and never needed to replace a nib. You can’t authoritatively state I was using the Kobo Stylus wrong since you haven’t watched me use it. Let’s just agree that our experiences weren’t the same and let it drop.
