Surface Pen

Fact Sheet

May 2017

The new Surface Pro1 provides people with the most responsive and natural digital inking experience
thanks to the new Surface Pen. Writing and drawing on your new Surface Pro with the new Surface Pen
feels like writing or drawing on paper, with features such as tilt for shading, increased pressure sensitivity
levels and faster inking. The new Surface Pen not only helps you express your thoughts, ideas and
drawings on screen, it reflects your personal style with four new color choices.

Top Features and Benefits

 Most accurate inking. The new Surface Pen has been revolutionized to deliver the fastest, most

fluid and accurate digital inking experience we have ever created. We’ve made it more sensitive
by quadrupling the levels of pressure sensitivity to 4,096 and reducing the activation force,
making inking easier and more natural. Tilt the pen just like a graphite pencil to shade your
sketches, using one of three different tips. 2 Experience tilt, low-latency inking and improved
pressure sensitivity for better note taking in Microsoft Office 365, designed to work best with the
new Surface Pen on Surface Pro.

 Surface Pro and Surface Pen, optimized. The new Surface Pen is designed to shine on the new

Surface Pro. Custom silicon in both the pen and device helps drive instant, fluid and accurate
inking, so no matter how quickly you’re writing or drawing, the ink flows from the tip of your pen
to your screen. The new Surface Pen more than doubles the accuracy of the previous version, and
with latency so low it is virtually imperceptible to the human eye, making it twice as responsive as
the Apple Pencil. 3 And the new Surface Pro’s hinge now extends to a full 165 degrees for full
Studio Mode, so you can immerse yourself in your writing and drawing with the new Surface Pen.

 Beauty and style. Not only does the new Surface Pen provide an exceptional digital inking

experience, it looks and feels like a real pen, and complements your personal style. Choose from
four colors4 — Platinum, Black, Burgundy and Cobalt Blue — that coordinate with the Surface Pro
Signature Type Cover1 and Surface Arc Mouse.1

 The best of Microsoft hardware and software. The new Surface Pro ships with Windows 10

Creators Update and is fully compatible with the programs you need to be productive. Microsoft
Office 365 subscribers will be able to take advantage of the new Surface Pen’s tilt support, low-

latency inking, and improved pressure sensitivity for better note taking, comment writing,
drawing and more when using the new Surface Pen in Office apps on the new Surface Pro. Now
you can work, connect and create even more in the most widely used productivity suite.
