Stylus Surface RT

Hello !
I'm looking for a good quality pen for my Surface RT, which is accurate, finely written, and without make stripe/scratching.
I saw this product which has good performance
Any advise ?
Regards

RT uses a capacitive screen, and has no stylus digitizer. Any stylus that works will basically be something that imitates the capacitive characteristics of a fingertip. Accuracy will be as good as it is with a finger, no more and no less. Precision will be pretty low, though - maybe better than you can get with a finger, but not hugely. Fine writing isn't really going to be an option (due to the precision problem); by their very nature, capacitive styluses have somewhat bulbous tips. They should not have a scratching problem though, especially not on the Surface's Gorilla Glass screen.
Also, be advised: "advise" is a verb ("can you please advise me?"). The noun you're looking for, "advice", is spelled with a C ("does anybody have some advice?").

I got this one while it was on sale (~$12)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0064L8Q0K/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
got good reviews. Nice as it works as a regular pen as well. However, I do not believe it works much better than the full aluminum stylus I used to have for my HP touchpad. Those are now much cheaper also. I wouldn't spend $20 for the Incipio.
Because I often give presentations I needed a presentation remote so I got the Kensington Presentair, which also works as a stylus.

I thought about that a while back but then read the reviews on Amazon. It looks like hit or miss to me.
I suggest you buy it, try it and if it doesn't work return it.

I got a pen from my local supermarket that's very similar to the pen/stylus linked a few posts above.
It's great. Highly recommended.

Zoom Lense

Love my camera on my phone and the sheer number of photos I take proves it. From time to time I have seen advertisement for smartphone "Zoom Lenses" and i was wondering if anyone had any or had any recommendations for them or even against them.
I'm sure you all know what I mean but i'm referring to this.

If you are actually going to BUY a lens for your phone... Spend the money and get a real camera.
you use cam phone because it's portable and you can pull it out for a quick shot... once you put a lens... you lose both. + you end up looking like an idiot when you missed the shot.

Have a real camera, it's at home. This i can throw in my backpack. i'm obviously not going to use it for rush shots, but things like the view from my office etc. Besides 40 dollars for the zoom, 1400 (give or take) for a good DSLR.

Right, and my 6d, which was 2000 takes much better pictures then s5. But who am I to say anything I buy anything that I find mildly interesting.

Thank you for your opinion I will take it into consideration. I'm curious if anyone has had any practical experience with them.

If it works a a regular telephoto and not a zoom lens you will experience a black circle around your shot until you zoom in to only the telephoto area. Here is someone else's experience with adding a telephoto to a camera:
- Install the lens.
- Turn on the camera.
- Oh my God, it's just a big black circle. What's wrong?
- Zoom in.
- As you zoom in, the circle gets bigger and bigger until finally the entire picture is visible in the viewfinder.
- Ah, that's better.
- Turn off the camera.
- Turn it back on.
- Oh my God, it's just a big black circle. What's wrong?
- Repeat.
- Then you decide you want to take a picture of something that is nearby.
- Zoom out.
- Oh my God, it's just a big black circle.
- Remove the lens.
- Can take your close up picture.

Thanks. The one i'm looking at is only 30 bucks so, just gonna try it.

Share and Discuss your best GS7E photos!

I have to admit, while I like the camera, I feel like my S6 Edge runs circle around the S7 Edge's camera.
However my mind completely changed once I went into the back of my complex with no light and took this shot. Long Exposure.
1st and 2nd Pic is from GS7E

I am pleased. A little more work, and the photos should come out great on this phone.

S7e

I would also say that I don't see any major improvement form the s6. Maybe it's just me.

Mooooo

Kinda low light

The watch cow

Uploading to xda degrades the quality alot

Camera seems to do just as good as my Note 5 in regular light, maybe a slight bit more grainy when zoomed in. The difference is all in low light and capturing shadows and such. Big improvement.
If the Note 6 can retain the 16MP from the N5 , and also keep the dual pixel from this, it will have a lot of potential.

Scanning documents in artificial light is a big improvement. Especially with optical image stabilization. My barcode reading app finishes decoding before I finish getting the phone in position to read it.

Coming from the s6 edge to the note 5 and now to the s7 edge there are some improvements. Biggest comes from low light pictures. A lot of pictures I use to take in artificial light or low light would always come out grainy now it comes out much better and pics at night, you can actually tell what you are seeing in the pictures. Also the speed of the shutter seems faster or at least the auto focus speed. Makes a significant difference when trying to get a good shot in a pinch.

completely unedited. Amazing camera almost as good as my DSLR.

Took this while driving on the expressway/highway/whatever you call it where you live, going about 85 mph.

I took these pictures at the AZ Desert Botanical Garden a few nights ago... no flash. They have a special exhibit going on right now with all this special led lighting at night. No filter or effects on any of these pictures...

Very nice!

I put this on my computer and viewed it at actual size, and it looks horrible.

My puppyyy

The zooming in is lacking. But only had to take one photo. Shows what I need. Even the rain drops.
Of course uploading through app is crap =/

I think I saw last time I saw this come up the general consensus was that this is just ordinary lens flare. Its a reflection of the light on the lens. Its annoying but completely normal.

Probably yeah, the sun was really bright but i never thought this would happen..
It's plausible that it could be the situation here lol
I'm not used to have such a good phone and think everything it's a problem [emoji23]
I wanted know if other people experienced the same and it was not a camera problem for the good of my heart lool

I understand. The phone is a huge investment for a lot of people so they tend panic at anything that they perceive to be "not quite right".
I wouldn't worry to much about it though mate. These phones are made to ridiculously stringent standards so the likelihood of there being something legitimately wrong with your phone is slim unless you're insanely unlucky.
You'll see a few complaints here and there about any phone online but you have to remember that for every person who writes about a complaint or issue, there are tens of thousands of others out there with a fully functioning device who are never going to post about their positive experience.

Yeah that's completely true and it might be just my mind tricking lol
Thanks very much, I'll try to be more "calm" and enjoy the machine

[Discussion] Are 48MP rear camera plus 25 MP Selfie Camera the best KSP of View20?

One of my friends asked me how about Honor View20, what is the 48MP+25MP, Is it worth buying? What's your opinion?

Ofcourse if he can afford it. Its real 48 MP and front cam is amazing too

There's a video review from Ben's Gadget Review, and the photos look really impressive, especially low-light photos when using "pixel binning".

Used this phone during Honor 10 lite launch on 15th. Camera is amazing

Been using the phone for 2 days now, given the price, it is absolutely mind blowing. It is easily at the same level of phones several hundred pounds more expensive.
The camera quality is amazing, and the AI focus/item recognition is great. The only thing I don't like about this phone is the lack of a baked in dark mode, but there are plenty of themes that fix that problem with a few taps.
The processor the phone comes with is currently the fastest on the market until snapdragon release a new chip I believe, and it really shows. I haven't hard closed a single app since turning the phone on for the first time (just keep them in the background) and it's not impacted it at all.
Magic UI can take some getting used to, but the non-Chinese versions of the phone allow launcher changes with no hassle if you want to use something else.
The phone doesn't have built in contactless charging, but at the asking price, there has so be some sort of downside (if contactless charging is an advantage, it never works well for me)
So far there's absolutely nothing bad I can say about this phone other than I wish it supported standardised expandable memory, but I got the 256GB model, so it's not a big issue for me. There are rumours that the phone might support Huawei's proprietary SD card, but no confirmation.
It's got a beautiful design (I'm sticking with the clear case that comes in the box), it's amazingly fast, it has one of the best camera sensors available on the smartphone market and the battery life is fantastic (4,000 mA). If you aren't a brand loyalist and are looking for a phone upgrade, there's no reason to not buy this phone unless it's out of your price range (buy on contract!!)

It's balanced smartphone, it check lists every users needs & fulfilled the demands without spending too much money! It's a win-win for Manufacturers as well as for the Consumers. Honor View20 is one step ahead in Camera, Performance, Design.
