Reviews: Styli

TrueTip

First Impressions -
    I was very interested when I heard that there was another brand of Finger Styli out on the market, so I was happy to get some to try out.  The packaging is really quite neat for such a simple product, and also servers to be a great place to keep your extra styli and not lose them (which has happened with some of my others).  Upon opening the package, I was a little surprised to find that the styli are not adjustable (though they are not "one" size).

Pointing and writing -
    This finger stylus is much easier to put on then the Stinger.  There is nothing to adjust or fit before putting it on.  One thing I quickly found out, was that you could use it either by pressing on the small part at the bottom, or turn it around and press on the piece that connects the stylus and "the ring" together.  The second way seemed to work better for me, but the first way is how they show to use it on the package.  Really either way, the stylus works well.  Since it is more pointed, it is more accurate for writing then other styli that might have large or flat tips.  

Overall Worth -
    If you are looking for a finger stylus, this would be the one I would recommend.  If you are willing to pay a little more, it may prove to be more effective for writing and general use, not to mention reducing headaches cause by the Stinger when trying to put it on your finger.
