Hello, I checked the product compatibility page for the Active Pens and I noticed that only a certain HP Envy x360 13-ag000x (or something like that) was listed. Does that mean that all HP Envy x360 support an active pen, or only that certain type?
A more specific question is, does the HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-ar0601ng support any kind of Active Pen?
Thank you very much!

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
To get the answer to this question, The stylus or pen works by touching the screen digitizer. As long as the pen is Windows-compatible, you can use it on your laptop PC. But remember: Just because your laptop features a touchscreen doesn't imply that a digital pen works as an input device.
A passive stylus (also known as a capacitive and inductive stylus) functions the same as your finger on the screen. Passive styluses do not require batteries, do not have any configurable options, and do not have specific pen software. Passive styluses work on any touch screen device.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
