Looking for a thin and fine tipped Apple iPad stylus? Adonit Jot is your answer. Most tablets these days use capacitive touchscreens. Capacitive type screen respond to contact points of a certain diameter, about 3 to 4 milimeters. That is why most tablet styluses have fat rounded tips which is too big for finer writing or sketching.

The Jot stylus has a very fine heavy metal ball-point tip surrounded by a clear and transparent precision disc. The sharp tip allows for very fine and accurate contact. The thin and clear precision disc covers the minimum contact point width for the iPad capacitive touchscreen to respond. That’s how Jot work around the precision limitations of capacitive touchscreen.

Adonit designed the Jot stylus to feel as close as possible to writing with smooth ball-point pen. There is hardly any friction felt between the tip and surface when writing. The precision disc at the tip is very flexible. You can hold and write with the Jot stylus comfortably at any angle.

Made from aluminium and steel, it looks and feels like a fine quality writing instrument. Replaceable precision discs and caps are available for purchase. Compatible with all capacitive touchscreens: iPads, iPhones, MacBook Trackpads, Magic Trackpads, HTC, Samsung, Nokia, Motorola, Blackberry.
