Thank you for your response. But the product which is mentioned in the pdf is ‘ HP Active Pen (Synaptics) J4R51AA (CAN/ENG, APJ)’, which I’m not getting online to buy. How could I buy this product in India.

  • Items accompanied by a tiny box in the Add-to-Cart column are available for purchase
  • N/A means the part is not carried / offered for purchase by HP.

Parts marked as available for purchase might be available from:  HP Parts Store

OR

Use your search engine to find the part number at your favorite online store.

 

 

 

If you would like to do so, contact HP in your region and ask the question.

 

Start with HP Sales (online store).

 

Example

HP Computer Store / Laptop Store | HP® Official Store

https://store.hp.com/us/en

 

  • If necessary, scroll down and click to change the Flag / country
  • Contact phone numbers are usually at the top of the page
  • Some regions also provide the Chat Option.

 

If Sales cannot help, consider contacting HP Support (in your region).

 

Reminders

  • Use the serial number of the device to submit the case (do not post that information on the Community).

 

  • Chat is not available in every region. In those areas where Chat is an option, Chat service hours are likely restricted.  In the event that Chat is not available in your region:  Call the number provided in the HP directory, else submit your case online (to receive phone contact information)

 

  • HP will advise you there is a fee for phone support and / or other services when your computer / device is no longer under warranty.  This is normal business practice.

 

  • HP may tell you that certain services are not covered under warranty.  This is normal business practice.  Standard Warranty typically covers specific hardware issues as explained in the Warranty contract. Care Pack coverage and warranties differ by package.

 

  • If the HP Contact (phone) number is not immediately provided:  Contact information is displayed on your screen after you submit your case online.  

 

  • HP websites are the only ones allowed to use the HP copyright circle/logo.  Look for the copyright on any website claiming to be HP. If in doubt, scroll to the bottom of the Website to find HP copyright logo.

Thanks a lot, that is really helpful. 

As per your view, the first stylus is not better than another one?

HP Recommended

@Adeshgupta 

 

You are welcome.

 

Discussion (not to be viewed as "fact" or an official HP response)

 

Hmm..  "Better" is subjective (at least to some extent).

 

"Pen Works = Good Pen"

 

A pen came with the Elitebook x360 1030 G2 - nice pen and I use it occasionally.  Is it "better" or worse than would be different model of pen?  I am not the one to judge - my "pen work" is primitve and requires only the most basic features. 

 

My Opinion

 

If you can purchase a pen that works on your computer, then you are ahead of the game.  Understand:  this is a personal opinion from someone who does not consider a pen to be a vital piece of equipment.  For example, I am more interested whether the machine can kick backside in the performance arena.
