I have an iPhone 4. I wanted something compact for a hand-held device. This stylus is amazing! It took me forever to find it but I'm SO glad I kept digging. It's great for typing and games (and everything). It's smooth, sleek, stylish, comfortable & functional. Extended it fits perfectly in my hand, though it can be used unextended as well. Both the lanyard connector cap & extension cylinder snap firmly into place. This is a REALLY solid unit. I am amazed it's under $10. I feel like I should have paid at least 2x as much. The tip is rubber "bubble" so it actually behaves like the skin on the tip of your finger! Brilliant. I have only had it 1 week & I'm already getting super fast @ typing with it. I can't say enough to recommend this product to iPhone users. PLUS there is a slogan printed on the side: "Design is Improvement" I am into art, design & web so I love the concept. The only thing that I don't like is that the slogan is starting to wear off already :( Thank you Elago! Great job.

This is my first stylus so I have nothing to compare it to. From reading comments on other styluses the two main things that make a good stylus is how much pressure is required to get the screen to register and how easily it glides across the screen. This does both those to my complete satisfaction. The stylus unextended is 2 5/8" long; extended it's 3 3/4". I use it unextended holding it up against my index finger most of the time. I use it with my iPad.

This stylus is very nicely made- probably of 400 series Stainless steel which is highly polished. The extendable feature is smooth
and convenient. Unfortunately, my sample has a VERY VERY tight cap- so tight that you have to pry it loose
using two very strong finger nails or a knife blade. When it comes off it doesn't fit on the other end like a pen cap
would! This is unfortunate because it would give the cap a place to park and also would extend the 3 3/4 inch (extended)
length by about 1/2 inch to make it a bit more comfortable to use. The cap has a short cord to a semisoft plastic plug that
fits (poorly) in the headphone jack. This means you cant use the headphone jack unless you put the cap in your pocket.
These design flaws are surprising given that the Manufacturer's slogan printed on the stylus is "Design is Improvement".
I think I will re-machine mine to correct these design flaws and then I might have a really nice stylus.
Follow Up- I fixed it by turning a bit off the working end to make the cap release easier and turned a bit more off
the sliding end to let the cap park there. I also found a pocket clip that fit the barrel- it's now 4 1/4" long
with the cap parked in place while using the stylus tip- and it has a convenient pocket clip.
Now it's perfect.
PS What do you do if you don't have a Lathe? Perhaps wait until elago "improves the design".
PPS- the metal parts are plated brass- not Stainless as I first thought
