Product Review: Fosmon Stylus for your iOS and touch devices
Tags :Product Reviews Targus Fosom stylus
I had the chance to review the Fosmon Trio Capacitive Stylus pack (it's a touchscreen stylus for your devices). This comes in packs of three colors. Here is the review for the Fosmon Stylus.
I have been lucky (and unlucky) enough to test a few different stylus. Here is how this one compares:
Weight: These are light, almost too light. I like pens and a stylus with a bit of weight and I found myself having to grip these a bit more. Also the end with the rubber tip is heavier so it makes it slightly unbalanced.
Clip: The clip is two part on these which I did like. The normal pocket type clip worked well. It actually came loose on my other Targus stylus after much usage so I will update this later after more time with it. It also has an optional little plastic part that ties to the hole in the stylus top. This allows you to stick it into the earphone slot on the device to keep them together when you are storing or mobile. I liked that idea but the stylus then just swung freely and I am worried about it damaging the earphone port if it ever got pulled or if the tiny plastic broke off inside it.
Usage: It worked just as well compared to the others. It never lost contact nor did I have trouble getting it to swipe or draw. Just like the others it has hard times drawing very thin lines, but that is just the design of them all with the large rubber tip.
So overall I like that it comes in a pack of three or the cost, which makes it a great option. Having spares for these is important as we get more touch devices. If the weight and balance issue doesn't bother me long term I may get more of these. Otherwise take a look at the Targus Stylus I use daily as an option.
I often overlook all the product reviews I do for Amazon so I will publish them here as well from now on. I recommend the Targus Stylus linked above as my first choice.
Disclosure: The link for Fosmon Stylus and others are Amazon affiliate for the reviews I do but are not paid product endorsements (as seen by how I often don't like them)
Also, make sure you keep up with all the product reviews from Spiked Studio on YouTube.
