Pros & Cons
Pros
The grip is nice and squishy, the eraser and side * are easy to press. It's justlike using a pencil and closer to the traditional tools i'm used to.
This is a fantastic gift for anyone who uses a wacom tablet. Always have a reserve pen.
Cons
The chip is right at the tip where it holds the nib, allowing the flimsy nib to flex and wobble. It also uses weird nibs that are very flimsy compared to older nibs.
Not compatible with earlier wacom screens such as intuos. Seems like it was intentional by the company to not make them backward compatible. Too bad the drivers are no longer supported as of 2015 or so. Moving to an ipad pro.
Highlights
Quality
Works just like the big boi that comes with the cintiq 22, but is more comfortable for me to work with.
Really big quality of life improvement if you sharpened your teeth with mechanical pencils.
I have purchased this exact pen several times and i seem to have trouble with the tip casing chipping or breaking!
The tablet is only fifty percent of the equation.
Price
Price is steep but worth it if you have issues gripping the larger pen.
Packaging/appearance
Probably a great pen though, loved the packaging, storage, and hand-feel.
Came with packaging instructions, different ring colors, and the pen holder.
Competitiveness
It is a good pen for cintiq drawing.
Bought this to replace the pen that came with my cintiq 16 pro (2021).
Only get if you lost or damaged your current pen that came with cintiq 16 and up.
Guys please make sure that if your buying it, that you have a intuos pro 2!

I hold my pens in a standard tripod pen grip and the larger pen would cause strain after prolonged use
