it is too early to say if it is robust or not, but I am gentle with it, again no tapping, just light strokes on drawing apps and I hope it will last a few years.Just received my Dagi P602 stylus and it is great! I'm a Sketchbook Pro and Inspire Pro user and it works perfectly with these apps. The pen comes with (1) spare tip and 5 stick-on protectors. The pen glides over my iPad screen. Very silky, not tacky at all. Almost feels wet. Having the ability to see through the tip down the fine point is a bonus. Great for detail work. I like the extra length compared to some of the shorter rubber tipped stylus. Very happy with this purchase.After doing some research and mental debating on which stylus pen I wanted to purchase, either the Dagi or Jot, I ended up purchasing the Dagi because it was cheaper. So far, depending on what App I use, the precision of the Dagi can vary, but I've enjoyed my experience with it.
Pros
it's cheaper
the end of the stylus is made of a flexible spring that can adjust to any angle the iPad is positioned at
it comes with an extra spring and covers for the tip
it marks pretty well
it has a black ink pen on the other side, just in case you want to take notes on paper
the shaft is made out of metal (doesn't feel flimsy)
comes with a plastic cover to protect the stylus end
Cons
The tip looks cheap (made out of a thin, transparent rubbery material similar to rubber glue)
the spring can be a little fragile
it isn't super precise, but it worksThe design is very clever. Capacitive screens require a larger area to be touched for them to register position. This stylus accomplishes this with the plastic tip, but feels like an actual pen with the pointed precision. Unfortunately, the capacitive screens aren't really responsive enough for this. There is lag and a noticeable lack of resolution. It also skips and isn't very pressure sensitive. I've tested this on the Droid X, the Droid 2, the Ipad 2, and the Archos 80 G9. I'll be returning mine. The capacitive touch screen technology, while economical, just isn't ready for pens yet.
