Hi,
Does anybody know if Microsoft New Surface pen is compatible with HP Spectre 13-ac000? Old pen seemed to be with 1024 pressure levels, new one is claimed to have 4096 pressure levels: https://www.windowscentral.com/new-surface-pen-now-preorder-microsoft

Hello, @PinJan - Greetings!
Thanks for your continued participation in HP Support forums! I'd be glad to be of your assistance 🙂
I understand that you are checking the new Surface Pen compatibility with your HP Spectre. I checked the Microsoft store for the details and it seems that the Pen is only compatible with these products:
Surface Studio
Surface Laptop (no tilt functionality)
Surface Book
Surface Pro
Surface Pro 4
Surface Pro 3
Surface 3
Hence, it looks like the pen is not compatible with the HP Spectre. Check See Compatibility of Stylus for details.
I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!
Good luck 🙂

I have the Microsoft Surface Pen which was for the Surface Pro 3. It is silver with a purple top that clicks and two side button. It not only works with my Spectre x360 13-ac023dx, but has better functionality than the included stylus with Windows Pen & Ink because the click top can be used to open programs and apps.

I have the new HP Spectre 13 inch x360 - AE010TU - the late 2017 model.
I also have the new surface pro pen (for the new surface pro without number). The pen is is Burgundy in colour.
The Microsoft pen works perfectly well with the HP laptop for my purposes. But I am only using it to take notes, not for art.
