How to choose a stylus pen

1. Active or passive?

  • Active styluses, like the Alogic iPad stylus pens and the Alogic Clarity active stylus, have a battery and a fine tip for precise handwriting and drawing.
  • Passive styluses, like the Targus magnetic stylus, have a soft tip and no battery. They work on any touchscreen, from phones to tablets and kiosks, for tapping and navigating.

2. Check iPad compatibility. Active iPad styluses work with specific iPad generations. Look up your iPad model in Settings > General > About, and confirm it's listed on the product page.

3. Look at charging and storage. The Alogic iPad stylus pens support wireless charging, and magnetic models snap onto the side of your iPad so the pen is always with you.
