Pen, because the biggest credit for the development of science goes to a book.
At the end of 20th century the world got sucked inside the computer. To write and draw digitally, we used keyboard and mouse.
Because digital pen has not gotten up-to the mark.
Today, the technology of digital pen, display and software has developed to the point that it feels as natural as using a real paper and pen.

(Remember: A digital pen is unlike the normal stylus of touchscreens; traditional stylus works by mimicking our finger. While digital pen sends signals to the special digitizer built inside the screen. Resulting in a precision equal to that of a real pen, plus if you press harder it will recognize that too, causing the strokes to become darker and thicker.)

Digital pen input hardware comes in two types. One is an accessory for your computer (Pen Display) and other is a standalone tablet computer (Pen Computer).

The ‘Pen Display’ is a secondary display for your computer, so you can use your existing computing power.
While tablet computer offers portability as it can easily be kept in your backpack, ready to be used wherever you are!
(In the next article insha’Allah, I will help you choose the best tablet available.)

Used World-over

Innovators all over the world, since antiquity, have been using the power of pen to grow their ideas and bring them to life.

In the digital age, engineers use pen to draw using CAD software

When I came to know about this awesome input device, and not having one made me feel so unhappy whenever I opened a digital book. Because hard-copy had only one benefit over the digital copy, that was, you can write and doodle on it with pen.

The same pain was felt when the need to doodle or type in script other than roman; comes up, when using Microsoft OneNote.

So what are you waiting for? Buy a digital pen and start achieving your goals!
