HiPen Stylus Windows Issue

[indask8]

It looks like many people have the same issue with their HI12 Dual boot, including me, I have received the stylus today, works but yeah it’s not very sensitive and require some pressure.

I suspect this is a touch firmware issue that might be resolved by an update, as this problem affect too many people to be a bad batch/hardware defect IMO.

I don’t understand, ItzikB says that in windows you can write with “no pressure”, indask8 says that it requires too much pressure. Is this caused by different units/pens or by subjective judgments?

[ItzikB]

I meant – there is randomized fake pressure points at windows OneNote platform

I say i did it with no-pressure to test it

While android OneNote maybe a little laggy bu pressure is accurate while i draw from no pressure to high pressure

I said “some pressure” not “too much pressure”

I tried again this morning, using one note, and I’ve compared with my n-trig pen on my old Vaio Tap 11 tablet.

For both pens when applying no pressure (just letting the pen tip rest on the screen with it’s own weight) nothing is written, N-Trig pen is detected as a cursor tough.

With around 10-15 grams of pressure from my hand, the N-Trig pen starts writing the line is very thin.

With around 15-25 grams of pressure the chuwi Hi Pen starts writing, line is thicker but still pretty thin (I guess this stylus is not as good as an N-Trig one, price is not the same).

So far I haven’t been able to reproduce those randomised pressure points.

I have exactly the same problem :/ I hope, Chuwi will release a driver update soon

Same problem here. The pen is very bad, the screen recognizes it intermittently and in OneNote this results in a series of blobs.

Another issue: in OneNote using the pen, sometimes the pen is recognized as eraser (it is set as pencil instead) while drawing and it unintentionally deletes the lines I’ve just drawn. Does it happen to someone else?

[ItzikB]

Yes. Same here. Exacly simptoms you describe.

 

Maybe is the maximum we can acheive from hi12 pen

[Alessandro Pino]

I’ve tried Bamboo Paper, OneNote and Google Keep on Android and the stylus works way better than on Windows. No random eraser, no random disconnecting, fewer blobs, better palm recognition. That’s unfortunate because the stylus is more useful on Windows! But now I suspect a driver/software issue. In Windows, it seems as it detects a button click even if I did not press it, while Android does not support pen buttons (I think?) and thus does not show that odd behavior.
