Dell Active Stylus

A smart stylus for improved productivity

The Dell Active Stylus is designed to work with select Dell tablets* (See a complete list of compatible devices below), giving you better interaction, more precision and improved productivity. Whether you are taking notes or sketching pictures, the stylus gives you a more natural and precise way to interact with your tablet. The pen has also been pre-calibrated, meaning it is ready to perform naturally with your tablet right out of the box.

1mm tip with pressure-sensing technology

The Dell Active Stylus has a fine 1mm tip that lets you draw precise lines--without the jagged edges that some other styluses can create. The stylus also has pressure-sensing technology, allowing it to mimic a traditional pen by drawing a thicker or thinner line depending on the amount of pressure applied.

Built-in buttons provide easy access to functions

The stylus has two built-in side buttons that give you easy access to functions, including erasing, highlighting, and clicking.

Palm rejection for natural, comfortable use

An internal transmitter lets your tablet know when the stylus is in use, preventing accidental actions if your palm or wrist rests on your tablet while you write. This allows you to write on your tablet naturally, just as you would on a pad of paper.

Hover sensing for predictable landing spots

When the stylus is held near your tablet, the tablet automatically detects it. Your tablet even predicts and shows landing points for the stylus tip, so you don't accidentally write in the wrong spot.

Battery lasts one year with typical use

The Dell Active Stylus uses an AAAA battery that lasts up to one year of regular use.
