Question

Nabi Big Tab - Stylus that works?

May 23, 2015 1:31AM PDT

Bought a nice big Nabi Big Tab 20" tablet- but I want to draw with a stylus, not my finger. Their techs said their stylus would work if we bought it, but now each tech gives us different info on which stylus to buy. Their stylus for the Nabi Dream Tab doesn't work on the Big Tab. Any ideas? The last suggestion was a non connectivity stylus? What's that?

non-conn = stylus you see for all phones and such.

Those are under 10 bucks now. NO ONE WILL TELL YOU IT WILL WORK because you may want them to warrant it. In spite of that, you should try one.

--> THE HORRIBLE TRUTH is that touch screens are poor drawing tablets. Then again I am using to things from Wacom.

capasitive stylus for android devices?

Thanks Bob----the Nabi people said this would work? Wacom is the best of course- but we wanted some thing we didn't have to use with a laptop, like you have to with Wacom.

check locally

check local stores for a stylus and give them a try if available. if they do not work then you should be able to return with ease. I see them all the time in the different discount stores in my area.

just a fyi, some tables have wacom drivers so you can use the many different features a good stylus can offer. for example - the galaxy note series.
