After using a few rubber tipped styli of various (name) brands and circumferences, I felt fed up with the skipping, inconsistent recognition, and too easily flattened/misshapen/broken rubber tips. I decided to embark on a quest for the "perfect" stylus. By perfect I mean: Comfortable to use; Consistent performance; Durable; Best for Drawing 1st / Writing 2nd; Inexpensive, and preferably, Attractive. After reading innumerable reviews and articles of advice, I decided that a brush stylus would likely come closest to my needs and desires. Many searches later, I discovered this little gem and ordered one with my new Kindle Fire.

Always skeptical of purchasing products without reviews, I took a chance on the Mediasonic MLG-6065TS, mainly because it looks nice, and it's priced 50 75% lower than comparable products. My gamble paid off. It's my new favorite (by far) stylus.

Though it is smaller in length (20 cm or about 4") and circumference than most pens, I find it comfortable for navigating my phone or Kindle Fire. [My hands fit medium sized women's gloves.] With a metal barrel, the weight is more than cheap plastic pens, and a little less than a metal Cross pen. Its performance is smooth (no skipping) and consistent. I very much enjoy using it for the Android app Draw Something.

To use, twist clockwise to reveal the bristles, or counter-clockwise to protect the bristles inside the barrel. That feature can also be used to establish a somewhat "finer" tip when needed. How many rubber tipped styli have built-in tip protection especially for under $10? Aesthetically, the chrome-like finish is quite attractive to me. Another feature I am most pleased with is the addition of a rubber piece on the tip to provide another buffer between stylus barrel and your screen. This is a feature rarely seen on rubber-tipped styli even though most (if not all) of them are notorious for eventually flattening out or breaking off. The only flaw with the rubber tip is that sometimes, when preening or reshaping the bristles, the rubber piece can come off easily, but it's simple to reposition it back on the pen. Under the cap an SD card removal tool is found, which I don't require, but if you ever need to poke something that you'd normally unbend a paper clip with which to poke it, you could just use this stylus! :-)

Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone interested in a stylus for casual use. Now if you really want a brush stylus, but you need to write or draw for extended periods and especially if you have large hands this stylus is likely too small. In such a case, I would recommend trying the PenGo BrushPen Stylus for iPad and touch screens. It has three interchangeable tips, one of which being a brush. :-)

[SEMI-UNRELATED NOTE: It took sifting through a lot of pages to find this stylus, and I'm unsure why that is when it is clearly similar to well-known brands of brush styli. One would think it logically listed within the top 20 of an Amazon search for "brush stylus," because there really aren't that many options for such, but instead, countless rubber tipped styli were listed ahead of it. Go figure.]

This is pretty nice! I was kind of expecting something with a point, maybe a rubber covered point, but this has a brush. It does a nice job with "Draw Something" and it's easy to use. I think I would recommend it.

I really enjoyed my kindle before but now i have twice the fun with this stylus. Only downside was my brush was a little bit uneven when it first arrived. I have since cut down the tip a bit to give it continuity. Great for anyone who has trouble or works a lot with touch screens!

Doesn't work on the multi-point capacitive touch screen of my tablet. Small and nice looking, but very minimal response from the tablet to it. The fibers are nice and smooth, seems like they will last long, but in the trash or given to someone with an iPod will be its fate. Maybe it will work on the iPod Touch screen.
