It is also compatible with all subsequent Surface PCs, which uses the same basic technology. Unlike the previous pen, this version can be stowed away by sliding it into a self-adhesive felt loop which can be attached to the Surface Type Cover (optional extra). The pen is included with all Surface Pro 3s but is also compatible with and available as an optional accessory for the Surface 3. Unlike the Wacom-powered Surface Pen, it requires two batteries: one AAAA battery for stylus operation, and two size 319 coin cell batteries for the top button. A third button, located in place of the eraser tip, sends a Bluetooth signal to a paired Surface PC which instantly opens OneNote, even when the device is locked (although advanced editing functions are disabled in this case).
Based on technology developed by N-trig (a separate company at the time, though subsequently acquired by Microsoft), the Surface Pro 3 version lacks the eraser tip present in the previous generation erasing is done by drawing over the ink strokes while holding down one of two physical buttons on the side, above the button used for right-clicking. Second generation Surface Pro 3 Ī new version of the Surface Pen was launched in 2014 with the Surface Pro 3. Although the technology was deprecated with subsequent generations and is now branded as "Pro Pen", it can still be purchased as an accessory for the Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2 as well as other Penabled-compatible devices such as those from Lenovo ThinkPad lineup. The button on the pen doubles as a magnetic clip which can be used to attach the pen to the Surface charging port (although not while simultaneously charging the device). It was bundled with the Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2, but is not compatible with other models. It features one physical button on the side to simulate a right-click when the pen comes into contact with the display, as well as an eraser tip at the top of the Pen that removes ink strokes when it comes into contact with the display.
The first Surface Pen was introduced in 2012 alongside the Surface Pro, which uses Penabled technology designed by Wacom.
