Dell PN579X Premium Active Stylus Pen

The Dell PN579X is an active stylus that delivers a premium writing and drawing experience on select Dell 2-in-1 laptops and other Windows Ink-enabled screens. It lets you jot quick notes, sketch detailed ideas, and annotate documents with the familiar feel of pen and paper.

Because the pen understands three major protocols—Microsoft Pen Protocol 1.51, Wacom AES 1.0, and Wacom AES 2.0—you can move between compatible devices and keep the same reliable performance. Text stays crisp, lines follow instantly, and pressure sensitivity feels consistent from one screen to the next.

The barrel is crafted from aluminum and weighs just 19.5 grams, so long brainstorming sessions never feel tiring. At 5.94 inches in length it slips easily into a laptop sleeve, backpack organizer, or shirt pocket.

A tip made from rubber offers precise control whether you are handwriting notes, outlining a graphic, or tapping small interface icons. Pairing over Bluetooth 4.2 takes only a moment, and a single AA battery powers the pen for up to 12 months, letting you stay focused on your work instead of hunting for replacements.

Students who annotate lecture slides, designers who sketch on site, and professionals who sign digital forms on the go will appreciate its dependable performance and the peace of mind that comes with Dell’s one-year limited hardware warranty.
