Collection: Tablet Stylus Pens

Start with your tablet, because every tablet pen pairs with specific models only. On iPad, the Apple Pencil Pro works with the iPad Pro M5 and M4, the iPad Air M4, M3 and M2 and the iPad mini (A17 Pro). Line weight follows how hard you press, a squeeze opens a tool palette without leaving the drawing, barrel roll turns shaped brushes as you rotate the pencil, a light haptic tap confirms each gesture, and Find My shows where you left it. It pairs and charges on the magnetic side of the iPad and needs iPadOS 17.5 or later.

The Apple Pencil (USB-C) fits the widest range of devices: the iPad (A16), the iPad (10th generation), the iPad mini and many iPad Air and iPad Pro models, plus both displays of the iPhone Duo after an iOS update. It keeps pixel-perfect precision and tilt for shading, and it pairs and charges through the USB-C port under its sliding cap. It has no pressure sensitivity, so if you draw and want the line to follow your pressure, choose the Pencil Pro. The Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) attaches and charges magnetically and switches tools with a double-tap on earlier models such as the iPad Air (4th generation).

Android tablets use pens made for their own screens. The Xiaomi Focus Pen Pro reads 16,384 pressure levels at a 240Hz sampling rate and has no physical buttons: you pinch, double-press or slide along the body to switch tools and brush size, and a haptic motor confirms each gesture. It works with the Xiaomi Pad 8 series, the Xiaomi Pad 7 series and the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro 12.4. The Xiaomi Focus Pen covers the Pad 7, Pad 7 Pro, Pad 6S Pro and POCO Pad X1 with 8192 pressure levels and up to 150 hours per charge, and the Xiaomi Redmi Smart Pen is made for the Redmi Pad Pro, with 4096 pressure levels and USB-C charging.

For a MatePad, the HUAWEI M-Pencil (3rd generation) connects over NearLink, reads more than 10,000 pressure levels on supported models and charges on the top edge of the tablet; some MatePad 11.5 models need the M-Pencil charger, as its product page explains. The HONOR Magic-Pencil 4s (USB-C) weighs 10 g, comes with soft and hard nibs and writes for up to 10 hours on the HONOR Pad 20, and the Honor Magic Pen is made for HONOR foldable phones. On Samsung, the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra comes with its S Pen in the box. The tablets themselves are on our tablets page, and a case or a tablet keyboard is in tablet accessories.
