Logitech has announced a new stylus and it’s called quite simply ‘Pen’. As apparent from its colorful and friendly design, it is aimed at students part of classrooms full of Chromebooks. It also uses the Universal Stylus Initiative standard, meaning it should work flawlessly on most of the recently launched Chromebooks, that too without the need for pairing.
Moreover, Logitech says that more Chromebook manufacturers have been moving forward with the USI standard, so more models can be expected to support the stylus pen in the future.
The design is quite minimal with a triangular shape and large build that makes it easier to hold. There’s even a silicon grip which should make it more comfortable to use, especially for longer periods of time.
Up top, there’s a USB-C port using which you can fill the Pen’s battery to last for a claimed maximum of 15 days of school use. If it dies, a 30-second charge should grant 30 minutes of usage. The Pen can also be used while recharging.
Durability has been given special attention too and Logitech says that the Pen meets the MIL-STD-810G spec for toughness, meaning it will be able to survive up to four-foot drops. The Pen is also spill-resistant and there’s even a three-year warranty.
That said, the Logitech Pen isn’t up for grabs for regular customers and will not be available in stores. Instead, it can only be acquired through Logitech’s site or education tech resellers, that too only in large orders. The price per piece regardless stands at $64.99.
