The stylus is aluminum, has a rubber tip and is 1 5\/8\u2033 long, the tether is 1\u2033 long, and the plug is 3\/4\u2033 long. <\/p>\n<p>The plug goes into a 3.5mm audio jack, such as is found on many (most?) mobile devices. (Its Amazon page enumerates a score (20) of devices it is compatible with.) It easily pops out of its jack when needed. Using it doesn\u2019t feel as satisfactory as a regular-length (4.5\u2033) stylus. It lacks heft and it forces one\u2019s hand to move farther to do things like \u201cselecting\u201d a block of text, because it is so close to the screen. But I can live with it. And I\u2019m not forced to use it just because I have it plugged in: I can use my ordinary stylus \u2014 if I can find it. If I can\u2019t, I have an emergency backup. <\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t be deterred by the 2- to 3-week delivery time listed. Mine arrived in three days. I have Prime, but non-Prime buyers probably shouldn\u2019t have to wait more than a week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cheap stylus for tablet devices<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31301"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31301"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31301\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36732,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31301\/revisions\/36732"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
