will the tip on this stylus scratch a touch screen that is not gorilla glass and does not have a protective cover (i.e., I have a Lenovo Yoga 2 pro w/ nothing protecting the screen - nor do I want to have to put a protector on)?

All I can say for sure is that, after using this type of stylus on my iPad 2 for several months, it has caused no damage whatsoever. It is super smooth and never even hints at sticking to or grabbing the screen. And I don't have a screen protector on my iPad. My first couple of styli had rubber tips, and they quickly started sticking and grabbing. Totally useless in my opinion.

I have had one of the early versions without the dampening tip for about 2 years now. I do not notice that it put scratches on my iPad screen, and I do not have a screen protector. I use it for taking notes on a daily basis.

It's just a stylus - as long as you have a light touch when it comes to sliding the rubber tip across the screen it will do just fine. I noticed that when I applied a lot of pressure it caused the tip to drag which was quite annoying.

It he tip is angles at a writing angle. You do have to keep the tip in contact with the iPad screen. I wouldn't suggest buying this though. After about two months of use (drawing and light writing) it scratched my screen. I am super particular about not wanting scratches on my screen. Check out the Adonit Jot Script. It has a pen sized tip and the tip is not made out of a metal, though it is metallic in colour for effect.

Wow, I havn't heard of scratches from normal use. I do get small plastic rub marks from the stylus's nib. But I wipe it down with that microfiber cloth it comes with and they all disappear. I have been using it for about 9 months and still havnt worn the nib down. Is it possible there is something stuck to your pen or some solid dirt on your screen that is getting rubbed around?

Hi Jose R! Reina here from The Friendly Swede! I do apologize for the tardy reply! Our thin tip stylus pens usually work well even if you have a screen protector. Though if you find it unresponsive or need further assistance, please email me at our storefront customer service link here:

I'm sorry but I cannot be of any help with this question. It's for my sisters ipad and she doesn't use a stylus. That is weird though, I know my grandma uses a stylus with hers, but she has different screen protectors.

I'm using a glass screen protector. Been using it since end of December, no scratches. The tip is metal with a plastic cover.

I use this on my Kindle Fire and Samsung Galaxy Light. My Kindle has no screen protector but my phone does, and this stylus works just fine on both. I haven't noticed any noise when using these, and the more narrow tip is good for the keyboard. Also includes replacement tips, to last for a while. Good luck!

Not sure on the answer to that question, because I don't use a screen protector, but I would imagine that if the screen protector works when using your finger then it should work using the stylus... also... If I were you I would remove the screen protector, the stylus might make the screen protector "bunch up" and or tear, because of the material on the tip of the stylus. I my opinion: the stylus "replaces" the screen protector because you will no longer have any finger prints on your iPad. And the screen protector makes more sense being on a cell phone.

it is like the tip of your finger; your finger is not a fine point. I don't profess to know the science behind it, but I know that all styli have wider surfaces. Probably because the touch screens are programmed to respond to surface areas the size of fingers. Also, not sure if this is valid, but this prevents scratching I assume. I wondered the same thing, but bought it anyways. Rest assured, you can write very precisely with this! There is a tip covered by the disc, but your tablet/phone should always use the center of the disc (i.e.: where the tip of the pen is) to see where you're writing, so it works out.

I am using the stylus on a Kindle Fire HD and a Samsung Galaxy S4 phone, neither of which have a screen protector. While I have only been using it for less than a week or so, I have seen no evidence of damage on either device so far.

No. The rubber tip is soft, flexible like skin. My touch screens easily and accurately respond to it, using very light pressure. Also, I can't feel any friction moving across the screen protectors. Add quality manufacturing and I just don't think I will have a problem with the rubber tip for a very long time. I use this stylist daily because it outperforms all of my other ones, that cost so much more, for one pen. Hope this helps!

Oh it totally works fine with a stylus... Both the rubber tip and fiber tip:) it's a really good screen protecter...

It's capacitive just like you touching the screen, so if your fingers work through the screen protector, so will the stylus.

I have used rubber tipped stylus in the past and this style is far better. It glides across the screen without grabbing. I can't speak about the tempered glass. I have a life case on my ipad and the stylus works great.
