I recently purchased a Windows Surface Book 2 from beefholio (great unit- very happy with it), and am looking at a pen to use with this.

 

Has anyone experience of compatible pens from Aliexpress/Temu/Mighty Ape/ ???.

 

I know I am probably being a cheapskate but I do not want to pay 75% of what I paid for the Secondhand Surface Book 2 for a pen.

 

Thanks and Regards

If you want something reliable and somewhat integrated with the intended device experience, get a Surface Pen. The older (light grey, not flat) ones are still floating around inexpensively.

Otherwise, any capacitive stylus will work. How effectively they work depends on the build quality and your expectations. No need to import when all the $2 shops have already done it for you, grab any of their tablet/touchscreen capacitive styluses.
