There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It came straight out of the manufacturer's packaging with a AAAA battery (needed for some of the features, and a loop - strap to stick on the Surface/keyboard to hold the pen. The red pen matches the same red on the red keyboard too (just in case someone was wondering). I've seen some complaints about the nub at the end breaking off. I've only had this pen for about 2 weeks, so I haven't had any problems, but if you go to Microsoft's site, you can request replacement ones so you don't have to buy a whole new pen. Happy with my purchase so far!
The Surface does not have built-in storage for the pen, but it comes with a little adhesive "carry loop" that you can attach to your tablet. The biggest "con" I see with the pen - other than the price - is that I don't feel that I can trust the clip. It is a perfectly flat "U", similar to half of a paper clip, with no little nub, like on a ball point pen clip, to deter it from sliding out of the attachable loop. This thing is way too expensive to be losing and replacing!
What I was not pleased with, however, was that none of the batteries in the pen worked. Now I'm not saying the seller had to include the pen with all new working batteries, but I would have preferred if they had told me that the batteries included were dead. That way I would know that I needed to buy new ones. Without that information I couldn't tell if my pen was busted or just out of batteries.
If it were the simple process of just throwing in a AAA battery then I wouldn't be so miffed about the whole thing. But both the AAAA battery that powers the pen and the two 319 coin batteries that power the Bluetooth connection were dead. Those aren't exactly batteries you find just anywhere. It would have been nice to know I should buy them in advance since hunting them down proved difficult and I didn't want to have to wait a few more days to wait for them to ship via Amazon.
When I did finally get all the batteries replaced the pen worked perfectly and I've been very pleased with it. But in the future I'd like it if Used sellers of this pen were to be more detailed about whether they tested the pen before shipping it and whether the purchaser will need to have new batteries on hand to use it. Just shipping it with dead batteries and no other information just isn't acceptable when the batteries needed are this unique.
I would have preferred if they had just shipped it with no batteries at all. At least then I'd know for sure I had to get new batteries to power it instead of wondering if the thing is busted altogether.
