Although this week is a week to talk about Microsoft Software and its famous BUILD, it seems that not all Microsoft employees agree and recently, through Twitter, they announced a bomb of which we had some intuition. Apparently Microsoft and Wacom have signed an agreement to launch a stylus on the market.
This new universal stylus has nothing to do with those shown so far by Microsoft but would be a universal stylus compatible with all types of screen. This means that with the Wacom and Microsoft stylus it will be possible to write on the Microsoft Surface, on the iPad Pro or on a Samsung Galaxy Note 5, in any of them it will work without damaging the screen.
Forgot something big! We are working with Wacom to create a pen that will work across a huge number of pen enabled devices !!!! # Build2016

As far as we know, which is still little, Microsoft will be the company in charge of designing the technology and will be Wacom who brings it to fruition, materializing the project, but we do not know the launch date, the price, etc ... elements that every user wants to know.
Wacom will manufacture this universal stylus from Microsoft for all displays
Wacom is one of the leading companies when it comes to graphics hardware development. Your tablets and your stylus they are famous among graphic designers although some of its sales have been lost to the fact that everyone has a good resolution camera or new software that can do much the same as their graphics tablets.
Personally, I expect a lot from this union and I know that I will not be the only one who expects great things from this union, but we must be honest, the announcement through Twitter is not something very official and it seems that this universal stylus will have a lot of work, although Microsoft seems to have already started that job What do you think?
