Probook 430 G8 : Which Stylus can work ? 

The laptop has a touchscreen that works with my clumsy finger and I am looking for a stylus to improve that. But the description of the many stylus on the market is so unclear that I am lost.

I'm shipping back my second one now that does not connect and work on this laptop.

I thought they would work with bluetooth connection but they don't. The last one is an HP MPP2.0 and does not work at all.

I tried a smartphone pen  that works on my phone like a finger  but the result on this laptop is very slow and disapointing.
Do you have recommendations on what kind of stylus to look for ?

Thanks in advance.

Exactly, even bluetooth does not work., usually only the active stylus (bluetooth) works on X360 laptop.

 

For sensitivity you should probably calibrate the display. Follow the steps of this link

Dear @FPAGL 

 

I'm sorry but your laptop does not support active stylus, you can only use passive stylus or finger .

Thanks for the answer, Even a bluetooth stylus won't function ?


By the way, I'm surprised by the poor sensistivity with my passive pen which works great on a phone.
