New generation Bamboo™ styli with lifestyle flair

Wacom’s digital styli broaden appeal for everyday use with mobile devices

Today Wacom introduces a new line up of Bamboo styli. Bamboo Stylus solo and Bamboo Stylus duo are second-generation, improved versions of the popular range of digital styli first introduced in 2011. The Bamboo Stylus solo is a stylus for touchscreen devices like the iPad® and has a protective cap added in the new version. The Bamboo Stylus duo is a two-in-one solution offering both a stylus for touchscreens and a ballpoint pen for paper use. Additional to these second-generation models, Wacom offers the Bamboo Stylus alpha as an affordable entry addition to the range, which looks and feels like a pen.

Styli with style
Bamboo Stylus solo and Bamboo Stylus duo offer the best-in-class pen-like experience in an elegant, premium design. The soft touch paint-on-pen body with the colour-coordinated, polished anodized aluminium cap sets these styli apart from others on the market. Both versions come in a range of funky colours, which add a touch of fun and flair to everyone’s tablet or smartphone. If you feel heavenly blue, wear pink coloured glasses or are as bright and yellow as the sun or want to express what it feels like walking through a fresh, green spring meadow – Wacom’s new generation digital styli offer something for everyone’s mood. Additional to the four colour variations, the duo and solo as well as the alpha come in a black and a white version. The design is modern and exudes the typical Wacom quality: premium materials, ergonomic and setting it apart.

Improved writing and sketching
The in-use experience of precision is improved by a now even slimmer rubber nib (5 mm) for the solo and duo. The body of the stylus feels solid and balanced in hand. Writing, doodling or navigating on a touch screen becomes even more natural and authentic than before. “While touch is still the primary input method on most smartphones or tablets, the stylus has now definitely found its place amongst users”, says John de Olde, Asia Pacific Marketing Manager for Wacom Co., Ltd... “Styli bring a more accurate and precise way of taking notes in meetings or classrooms, sketching out rough ideas while on the go or adding handwritten elements to visual messages with suitable apps – like our own Bamboo Loop, for example, or Bamboo Paper, which lets you capture ideas and thoughts anywhere, anytime”, he adds. “After all, Wacom now has 30 years experience in digital pen technology, and that shows.”
