“You want to be realistic? You’re not. The Apple Pencil is not just a pen. If you get a regular pen stylus, the price is lower than what you are comparing for the Surface. The Pencil is far more functional, and the Surface does not have it. “
Let’s be realistic! More for less money!
“So, in conclusion, the top choice for digital stylus has to be the Surface Pro 4 Pen.”

This was written by a guy with a predisposition to conclude the Windows pen was better. . . it was obvious. He omitted many things about the Apple Pencil, such as the charging adaptor that comes with the Pencil, leaving one with the impression one is only allowed to charge it by either having it stick out from the iPad or buy an expensive additional charger, when that is untrue. Plugging into the iPad is a means of getting a quick charge in the field. 15 seconds to get a half hour? Not shabby. He is more impressed with the use of a battery in the MS pen. And, he is wrong about the Pencil using Bluetooth. It's a proprietary connectivity and all other users have found it far faster response than the MS Pen. He gives only cursory examples of the uses of the Apple Pencil, showing he does not have a clue how it is used. . . and concludes it is gimmicky and not easy to use, but waxes ecstatic about the exchangeable tips of the MS Pen to do things the Apple Pencil can do with out changing tips. . . all because HE did not know how to do them.
