From what Microsoft had to say, Windows Ink aims to make the pen an integral part of the Windows experience. With this as its goal, Windows 10 will now require a powerful tool to bring the experience to life in the best possible way, which is why Microsoft has decided to partner with Wacom to make it happen.
— Bryan Roper (@broper00) March 30, 2016 Both companies will work together to create a universal stylus that will work on any Windows 10 device with a touchscreen. It’s a long shot but if it works, then Microsoft would be moving in the right direction. Both companies have worked together in the past: the Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2 relied on a pen designed and produced by Wacom. However, when it came down to the Surface Pro 4, Microsoft decided to work with N-Trig instead. We’re not sure if there was a falling out between Microsoft and N-Trig, although we do find it strange that Wacom managed to get a hold of this deal. We have to wonder if this universal pen will also work on non-Windows devices such as the iPad Pro or even some Android tablets. While we suspect it might, it’s safe to say optimal performance will only be achieved when paired with a Windows 10 computer.
