This post has been updated to reflect the availability of Surface Pen. Now, available for Pre-order.
In addition to the launch of new Surface Pro and (Alacantra) Signature Type Cover, Microsoft also introduced the new Surface Pen for Surface fans. The new Surface Pen is better than ever, with precision ink on one end and a natural-feeling rubber eraser on the other.
One of the major highlights of the new Surface Pen is Tilt support. This feature lets you tilt the tip to artistically shade your drawings just like you would with a graphite pencil. The new Surface Pen is also the fastest digital pen with virtually no lag or latency, no matter how fast you write or draw.
Also, you can now sketch, shade, and paint with artistic precision and finer control with 4,096 pressure points that respond to the lightest touch.
