USI 1.0 vs USI 2.0: Understanding The Difference

[@PCGLAW]

I was hoping this would explain the technical differences between the pen versions instead of just a description that USI 2 pens work on both USI 1 and USI 2 screens, while USI 1 pens only work on USI 1 screens.

same, this felt more like just a ad for that brand.

The Main Differences Between USI 1.0 and 2.0: 1.USI 2.0 supports in-cell panels, whereas USI 1.0 does not. 2.USI 2.0 typically includes tilt functionality, which is absent in USI 1.0. 3.USI 2.0 introduces "Fast Pairing," which can enhance performance but may cause compatibility issues with some devices. 4.USI 2.0 defines a wireless charging standard, including specifications for contact-based methods. USI 1.0 lacks this feature. 5.USI 2.0 supports true-color functionality for stylus colors (1.0 only 8bit colors). However, due to the lack of operating system support, this feature currently has no practical impact. -- from a Stylus R&D

Thank you for posting.

I have the USI 2.0 for the Pixel Tablet and sometimes it writes on the Tablet when i'm only hovering above the screen. Nothing fixes it other than waiting for it to go into Standby mode, it's very unreliable. Have you noticed something like this too?

[@SimonBauer7]

is usi that energy inefficient? my lenovo precision pen 2 (mpp, aes, wgp) lasts for literal weeks at a time with 10+ hours daily use.

What is a premium design Chromebook like Pixelbook Go or Pixel Slate?

[@juancierva6298]

May I ask what that device with the bigger screen is?

[@basharalmaraziq]

I think it is Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5

[@ianoulton177]

That big screen looks like one of the Samsung S9 series.

[@basharalmaraziq]

@@ianoulton177 yes it is OLED

Just bought myself the ASUS Chromebook Plus CM34 Flip. (sale $499 CND) Thinking about getting the Penoval USI 2.0 Lite. Will it work on this model? I also have the Samsung tab S6 stylus ...will that work also ? Thank you!

[@DavidHarding-0-]

The question I can't get answered is, does a USI 2.0 pen on a USI 1.0 tablet act like USI 1.0 pen? Meaning, USI 2.0 is more advanced than USI 1.0. Do I get those advantages from the pen itself, even on a 1.0 device, or only if paired with a 2.0 device?

[@AyraWinla]

It's a six months old post so I'm pretty sure you got your answer by now, but just in case! I own a USI 1.0 device (Duet 5) and both a 1.0 and a 2.0 pen. The 2.0 pen works better in pretty much every way for me, but it's not the same brand and I don't get the 2.0 Tilt (as expected).

Does USI 1 or USI 2 work with a pixelbook go? WHat pen would you recommend for a pixelbook go? Thank you

[@hreedwork]

Thanks! 👍

I have a feedback about handwriting tests in your channel. I think you could actually lean on and write something while filming it with focus on the screen. You know, real notetaking. It would be more useful then just scribbling something.

[@4zims]

This is my first time learning about USI pens; I thought Wacom was the only option.

[@ianoulton177]

Great video, as always. I bought a Penoval 2.0 pen. But I also got an Asus pen thrown in with my CX5601. So I'm all penned up. 🤣

[@krazmokramer]

While I appreciate the info you are conveying, and the need to earn a living from these videos, a 2 minute Penoval ad in a 6 minute video seems somewhat excessive. That's 30% of this video devoted to advertising. And the video itself is somewhat of an ad. Just my opinion though.

[@weirdogames8957]

meh, though the same, i'm disappointed

This is why I have SponsorBlock by ajayyy.

5min video starts at @2:00 and is actually only 2min of content 😔

[@svenbjorn9700]

This is the worst video you've ever made. You didn't explain ANY of the differences, you just spent 2 minutes talking about nothing and shilling a Penoval stylus, and 3 minutes saying "USI 2.0 is backwards compatible." WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES? LOOK AT THE TITLE OF YOUR VIDEO.
