![]() Precision DiscĪdonit is a company that got into the stylus game early, debuting its first stylus way back in 2011. While it is certainly not as sturdy as the Pixel Pro, the design language is perfect for a lightweight stylus that’s meant for everyday usage. What’s more is that it is also available in a plethora of colors to choose from, such as Black, Silver, Rose Gold, and Midnight Blue. The slim 9mm body of the device is a pleasure to look at and use as well. This keeps the stylus right where you want it while sketching or taking notes. The Pro 3 features a textured grip etched onto the barrel of the stylus. Oh, and let’s not forget the grip of the device. There’s also a magnetic cap on the stylus, that just attaches to the rear end of the stylus while using it, so there’s hassle-free management. The solid aluminum stylus has a built-in clip so you can carry it easily. Also, the minimal things on the device are what make it so special. The body is made up of an anodized aluminum barrel with stainless steel details that just looks so stylish and sleek. Now, in 2017, here I am, holding the Adonit Jot Pro 3 in my hand, and I just don’t feel like keeping it down. ![]() Yes, it was functional and all, but the design language wasn’t that appealing. I remember using the S-Pen that came along with the Galaxy Note 3 back in the day, and boy did that suck. We’ve all seen those basic styluses that try to imitate the look of a pen, but then fail miserably. There’s no need for Bluetooth pairing or batteries that require constant charging. The Jot Pro 3, on the other hand, is a stylus that’s always on and works on every touchscreen device. While the company’s widely popular products such as the Ink and the Pixel Pro are great styluses, they are restricted to Windows Tablets and iPads respectively. The best part about the Adonit Jot Pro 3 is the fact that it is compatible with practically every touchscreen device out there. But if you’re out there on the hunt for a good stylus for your large touchscreen device, should you consider the Pro 3? Allow me to answer that as we take an in-depth look at the Adonit Jot Pro 3 in our review below: Coming with a price tag of just $29.99, the stylus works well across all touchscreen devices, and does so while looking absolutely exquisite. Seems too good to be true, doesn’t it? Well, luckily for you, the Adonit Jot Pro 3 is here. However, if you want a stylish, well-formed little pen/stylus to replace your finger for general browsing and app use, then this will do the job just fine.But what if you wanted a stylus that would just work across all devices, without the hassles of pairing stuff or charing it constantly? Yes, those features, along with an affordable price tag too. Basic note-taking and rough sketching are OK but could be a lot smoother ,with the stylus generally feeling a little clumsy for these uses. ![]() In the end, it depends on what you need it for. Adonit Pro 4 review: Should you buy it?įor a casual all-round, general use stylus, you could certainly do worse than opt for the Adonit Pro 4, but it is verging on the expensive for what it delivers in terms of performance, which is really very little. It could perhaps serve for very causal sketching at the most. The lack of pressure sensitivity really means that this stylus isn't an option for drawing, and the lack of palm rejection is always apparent. The stylus also seemed marginally more responsive to drawing lines in Adobe Fresco, though there was considerable wobble when drawing straight lines. This issue didn't seem to exist in Notes on the iPad, however, and there was good lineup there. It also makes writing a little more difficult than it should be. It's a small thing but more than a little off-putting, putting you slightly off-kilter if you're trying to concentrate. It’s not a great deal, no more than a millimetre or two, but I tried to highlight something in a written doc it highlighted just above the text, even though I had the nib in place. It seemed to suffer from a margin of parallax (tech term alert just nod and agree), meaning the nib and line don’t quite match up. However, when testing it out for note-taking and sketching on Notability and Autodesk’s Sketchbook, as Adonit suggests on its website, it seemed more than a little lacklustre in both respects. The Adonit Pro 4 is purported to be an ‘all-rounder’ i.e., for note-taking and even drawing. It’s a minuscule annoyance, but a constant one.įor general use, the stylus seems fine, at least for anything you would usually use your finger for. It's like setting a plate upside down on a table, and if that's an odd description, it's an odd sensation too. With every new point of contact, it has to re-adjust from its previous angle. Sticking with this disc for a moment as well as looking a little odd it feels a bit clumsy. Not the smoothest tool in the box (Image credit: Adonit)
