▲ ▼

description Adonit Stylus (Basic Model) Overview

This entry-level Adonit model serves as a solid, affordable stepping stone for users transitioning from fingers to styluses. While it doesn't boast the advanced EMR technology of the top-tier pens, it offers better tracking and a more defined point of contact than pure capacitive pens. It is perfect for users who need reliable functionality for schoolwork without investing heavily in a premium ecosystem.

help Adonit Stylus (Basic Model) FAQ

Does a basic Adonit stylus need Bluetooth or charging?

A basic capacitive Adonit model such as the Pro 4 is designed to act like a finger on a touchscreen, so it does not need the Bluetooth pairing used by Adonit's advanced Pixel line. Confirm the exact model because Adonit sells both passive and powered styluses. [Adonit Pro 4](https://d2u9b8dfeugwgn.cloudfront.net/pro4/)

Will the basic Adonit stylus work with Android, iPad, and Windows?

Adonit describes the Pro 4 as compatible with capacitive touchscreens, including iOS, Android, and Windows 10 touch devices. Compatibility with a specific app can still vary because passive styluses send ordinary touch input. [Adonit Pro 4](https://d2u9b8dfeugwgn.cloudfront.net/pro4/)

Does the basic Adonit stylus have pressure sensitivity or palm rejection like Apple Pencil?

No, those are active-stylus features rather than normal capacitive touch input. Adonit says Pixel needs an iOS device with Bluetooth 4.0 for pressure sensitivity, palm rejection, Pixelpoint features, and shortcut buttons, with up to 2,048 pressure levels.

How precise is an entry-level Adonit stylus?

A basic stylus gives a more defined contact point than a bare fingertip, but the catalog entry does not state a tip diameter or tracking technology. Adonit's Pixelpoint system uses a 1.9 mm fine point, so do not assume that figure applies to this unspecified basic model. [Adonit Pixel support](https://www.adonit.net/pages/pixel-support)
