Aggregate ratings are generally favourable, with most ratings in the five-star category, but a smaller one-star share shows that experiences are not uniformly positive. Ratings alone do not explain the reasons, so they cannot establish how the pen performs on a particular tablet. Compatibility remains the key practical consideration.
