I got a HP Convertible x360 11-ab1XX from Officeworks a few months ago and was wondering if there are any known styluses (preferably HP branded) that are compatible with this product? I am an art student and want to be able to work on Adobe Photoshop using a stylus with pen pressure and touch screen compatibility. I don't want to use a tablet, as I'm used to drawing directly on the screen.
I've bought two styluses so far that said they had '2 in 1' compatibility but one had no pen pressure, and the other didn't work at all... I'm really disappointed and at a loss here. Did I buy the wrong laptop? 😞

"Wrong" might indeed be the case in this context.
Not every computer supports a Touchscreen and not every Touchscreen supports a stylus.
One of the many models in this series:
Find a Stylus for your computer
First, find the computer's exact Model name:
HP Notebook PCs - How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Active Stylus - Compatibility Document
Search the document for a compatible stylus and find additional information about stylus support.
HP PCs - Touchscreen Compatibility with Pen and Stylus
- If there is an HP Active Stylus available for your model, it should be included in the document.
- If you are unsure of the model series, click open the appropriate category (Consumer or Business class systems), peruse the list to find supported models.
- Pen(s) compatible with your computer are marked with a “check mark” to the right of your computer model, in the column(s) under the Pen name / description(s).
- Additional information can sometimes be found in Advisory Documents for your computer.
- The document is updated as new information becomes available.
Search for "11" to see the models of these "little" computers (11 inch screens) that support a stylus.
