Rated 5 out of 5 by from NOT for Yoga 11e, 6th generation as requested! I ordered this pen for my Yoga 11e 6th generation small laptop. I ordered it at the suggestion of an online Lenovo salesperson. When it arrived I found that this pen was NOT the rechargeable pen that stows inside the laptop base. I have returned it and reordered what I hope is the correct pen. The return process isn't Amazon, but it was timely and without drama.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Unexpected Surprised I was skeptical at first but ordered it anyway. I was pleasantly surprised at the ease of use and it’s authentic feel. I use another prominent tablet and pen. This one is comparable. I’m very happy with this purchase.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy and comfortable to write with Great pen, I use it with my Thinkpad X1 Yoga. Definitely prefer the Pen Pro over the much smaller pen that comes with the Yoga. Pen Pro is easier to grip, and much easier to not accidentally press the buttons. Just keep in mind the red back of the Pen Pro does NOT function as any kind of button - idk why I thought it would work as an eraser.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Decent, solid pen with not-great button design Does the job. Feels solid and I like the USB holder it comes with. My main complaints are that the buttons are very hard to feel when using so it's hard to find them and click them, and there's no top button that can be used as an eraser or an extra button. The second complaint's minor, but the lack of tactile feel for the buttons strongly impact the pen's usability.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great pen The pen feels good in the hand, connects quickly, and works well with my Lenovo laptop. They even provided some spare parts ! I also prefer the use of easily replaceable & easily found batteries. No downside to the pen I can see, just have to be sure and pick the correct device and carrier/sleeve to be sure it's handy when I need it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A good pen This pen works great and it's compatible with every function. I wish that you could plug the pen into your computer to charge it (A feature that exists with "other" pens). It would also be convenient if the pen could be stored internally in all compatible Thinkpads because it can be a pain to carry around separately.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Few glitches I bought it in the middle of September and been using for school with one note. It’s very reactive and the weight feels like one of those heavy, expensive pen feeling (expected since this pen is expensive). I notice a glitch in the pen when placing it onto the screen. It would think it’s touching the top of the screen and either drag the current window down or draw a line from the top to where my pen actually touched. But I think it’s a glitch anyone can disregard. All in all, I enjoy this pen.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works fine on my Thinkpad Yoga 14 ( 20DM008UUS ) It works fine with my Thinkpad Yoga 14 ( 20DM008UUS ). It came with one plastic holder for the pen that connects to the USB port (just for holding). Check your Thinkpad to see if it has Pen support on the PSRef books: http://psref.lenovo.com/Book

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice pen, lacking support Of course, it is a 'simple pen', so what the heck could you possibly need to know? Well, it is battery powered, so if my use model is on the road, all over the USA, in and out of meetings where the pen will be used then stored for the next meeting, it would be great to know if there is an auto shut-off function (not documented) or some combo of button pushes that turns it on or off (not documented). Several calls to the Help Desk folks, not a single person could tell me if either of the above features are present in this object. Other pens provide and off/on function. If this pen does, it is not documented and no one on line can tell me a simple yes or no. Aside from the whining, the pen works well with my Lenovo ThinkPad 11E Yoga. Using it to take notes in OneNote, then use the 'Drawing to Text' functionality to convert my scribbles into text. Pen functions perfectly in this use-model, I just have to carry a 48 pack of batteries with me every where I travel.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to use and integtates well with applications I bought this immediately after I found that the Lenovo X! Carbon Extreme would work with pen technology. Once I got the pen, I was able to use it to mark up Adobe PDF's as well as integrate with the Write-It program which puts a canvas over any screen so that you can add notes or highlight areas of the screen, then save it, and share with others as a jpd or png file. I use it daily to mark documents up and send to my team to show them my concerns, thoughts and actions I need them to focus on.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Waste of time. Don't purchase for passive pen. This pens description said it would work with my Thinkpad Yoga 12. After wasting hours updating drivers and programs, a call to Lenovo tec support(who couldn't figure it out and referred me to a store) and a trip to Micro Center I found this pen won't work! Thank you Micro Center more knowing more about Lenovo products then Lenovo them selves.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good but not great I bought pen for my x1 thinkpad to improve the feel of the skinny pen that comes with the computer. Am disappointed that there isn't a softer tip available and that the top is not an eraser as it was on my x200 and x230 pens.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Pen, But the Buttons Have Placement Issues I really love the pen. It's so convenient with my schooling the way it is. I take all my class notes on my computer and use the pen for drawing and adjusting my notes. The only hang up I have is that I accidentally click the buttons on the pen when I'm taking the notes. It does get frustrating at times, so I ended up disabling the lowest of the buttons because that's the one I usually have issues with. Overall it's great and perfect for note taking and drawing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Used for ThinkPad X1 Yoga (Gen 1 - 2016 I bought this for my X1 Yoga to use so I could mark up PDF files and word documents for studying for school. While the original included pen gets the job done, the increased size of this pen and the fact that you can write at more of an angle with it makes it worth the price. I can't speak to how good it is used for drawing, as I'm using it for taking notes, but for the aspect I use it for I love it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pressure Sensitive Pen Is Great For Drawing, Notes I bought this pen about a year ago for my Thinkpad Yoga 14. Make sure that your computer is compatible with the pen before buying, as not all Yoga 14s are. Digital ink flows smoothly from this pen, and it is pressure sensitive. However, I found it was a little hard to make very light, thin lines with this pen compared to some other digital pens and tablets that i've used. You need to be extremely light, which makes it difficult to draw or write accurately. Otherwise, it works really well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sleek Pen Design An excellent complement to my new X-1 Carbon Extreme, allowing me to sketch on top of documents shared in a variety of Teams/virtual meetings. Too new to understand battery life. I would recommend a "false slot" on Lenovo laptops/desktops to receive the plastic holder, which consumes a USB slot (both of mine are already in use.)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good product It works with my Extreme X1 Gen 3. It is very sensitive. The pen is sensed even it is 1cm above the touch screen, so you can do some operations without touching the screen. But it could be annoying when you want to control the writing precisely. The erase button is useful.
