Out with the old, with the new
With the Surface Slim Pen, you will turn your Surface device into a powerful creative tool, allowing you to draw and interact with various parts of Windows. The rechargeable battery with wireless charging only makes it easier to use, since you don't have to carry AAAA batteries. If you plan to make some notes or scribbles, the classic Surface Pen may be the best option with considerable savings.
In addition to the visual changes in the design, as well as the battery and wireless charging, there is no big deal option that separates the classic Slim Pen. Both use Microsoft's N-trig technology and are incredibly accurate. Do you really want a wireless charging and a built-in rechargeable battery? The Surface Slim Pen is for you. The classic Surface Pen is for anyone who is not interested in the above features and wants to save some money.
