How to find replacement pen for Surface devices? (List of official & 3rd party Surface Pro, Surface Laptop, or Surface Studio pens)

Looking For The Most Suitable Surface Pro Pen? Here’s An Aggregated List Of Them

So you probably lost your Surface device pen, or the one you have stopped working. Maybe you still have your pen working, but you’re looking for an additional pen. There are all sort of pens you could buy that work for the various Surface device. To make it easier to find the most suitable pen, I aggregated a list of them. Along with a features for each pen, as well a list of the compatible surface devices. The lists contains both official & 3rd party pens. It may be best to always buy the official one from Microsoft, but they tend to be way more expensive for some, especially for those using an older Surface device. The listed pens are not for Surface Pro devices only, but for Surface Laptop & Surface Studio, as well.

You can use CTRL-F (Command-F on Mac OS) to find your device. Many surface models are compatible with many pens, so you can pick a pen based on your budget, desired features. Also, be aware of the incompatible pens listed under some of the pens.

If your surface device isn’t listed under any of the pens, you can try finding a used one in eBay using this link below:-

General Terms You Need To Know

Here are definitions of some of the terms you will encounter in many of the pens listed below. These terms apply to both drawing tablets and Graphics Tablets in general.

  • Pressure Sensitivity?:- Pressure sensitivity is a feature that makes it possible to create thinner or thicker lines based on the amount of pressure you apply on the pen while drawing or writing. It helps us do the same things we do with traditional pencils. Pressure sensitivity could also be used to control brush opacity and other Settings, depending on your art program features. You can read more about Pressure Sensitivity in my post here.
  • Tilt Sensitivity?:- It’s a graphics tablets, pen display & tablet computer feature that allows you to control your brush strokes by tilting your pen. It’s so similar to how calligraphers control their lines with brushes by tilting them.
  • Battery-Free Pens:- This means the pen doesn’t need battery to run, and is likely powered-up from the tablet itself.
  • Palm Rejection:- Prevents touch from being triggered while you’re drawing or writing with the pen, which makes it possible for you to rest your hand on the tablet while at that.

What Features Your Surface Device Support

Some of the pens listed below support certain features, like tilt sensitivity, and some don’t. Before you pick a surface pen, please make sure your device supports the feature. You can use the table below to help you with that:-

I am an anime artist, and huge fan of digital art. I love drawing with pencils too. But I rarely do that anymore nowadays. Since some aspects of digital art can be tricky, I try my best to explain the concepts as easily as possible.
