This is especially true for styluses that don’t support palm rejection, which means you have to keep your hand upright over the pen. Balance and weight: A stylus’s weight should be distributed evenly along its body-a stylus with most of its weight at the nib and little at the other end (or vice versa) is uncomfortable to hold and difficult to control.

If it’s too sticky, you might make erroneous marks or get sore hands from gripping the stylus more tightly to drag it across the screen. If the nib is too slick, you don’t have the line control that you might get with a pen on a piece of paper. Resistance: A good stylus offers the right amount of friction between the nib (drawing end) of the stylus and the iPad’s screen.However, since there was still debate, I decided to go ahead and try out both applications to determine for myself which application was the most useful. However, if a stylus cramped a tester’s hand or dug into skin, we dropped that model from consideration, and if we found it impossible to grip a stylus without dragging a hand on the screen or contorting our fingers, we eliminated that contender.
