Writing for The Verge , Vlad Savov declares“Samsung ’s Staedtler stylus is or so 5,000 times more awesome than the Apple Pencil . ”(Tip o ’ the antlers toPhil Heywood . )
Roughly . Look , this is n’t an exact scientific discipline . In fact , it ’s not a scientific discipline at all . It ’s more of an nontextual matter . Well , it ’s not that , either . It ’s pap , is what it is .
Samsung introduced some tablet at Mobile World Congress last nighttime . I was there , I listened to the whole thing , and I ca n’t really tell you much about them other than they exist and they ’re technologically innovative .
Whoa , whoa , whoa , slow down , Perfesser .
[ write down ] techno - ma - logically advanced
Okay , go ahead .
What broom me up in material emotion …
… was this video of dogs being reunited with their military owners after returning from deployment that ’s typeset to a Regina Spektor song .
Actually , no . That would be graspable .
… was the Korean company ’s peck with German pencil Creator Staedtler to issue an S Pen title to calculate like a Graeco-Roman pencil .
Eh . The Macalope ’s more of aBlackfeet Indianguy .
The Steadtler Noris Digital for Samsung
But , that ’s it . That ’s the whole Southern Cross of Savov ’s argument here and the only financial backing for the headline ’s contention that the Noris digital is 5,000 time more awesome than the Apple Pencil : It looks like an old pencil . Do n’t go looking for specification in the article , there are n’t any .

Why ca n’t they make a smartphone that looks like a rotary dial phone ? At least youcanconvert a typewriter into a USB keyboardfor your computer or tablet . Thank God forthat .
The Noris digital is gloss bootleg and green , to distinguish it from the traditional black and gold Staedtler colour dodge .
So much for genuineness .
Look , if I ca n’t labor your digital pencil in a sharpener and have it leave shaving , then where is the joie de vivre ? Nowhere . That ’s where .
Other than that and the obviously unlike bakshis …
The Macalope will await review of the summit ’s lickability .
… this thing ’s identical from an honest-to-goodness school day , plumbago - and - Sir Henry Joseph Wood pencil .
So much better , right ? I mean , a ashen digital pencil ? What am I , a moonlight man from Mars ? !
Samsung has yet to discover specifics like pricing and availability for the Noris digital , but …
Well , since the Apple Pencil costs about $ 100 , we can calculate that the Noris digital only has to come up in at $ 500,000 or less , since it’s5,000 time more awesome . That ’s just math .
The crazy thing is , the Noris digital could really be right smart good than the Apple Pencil . We only have no room of knowing from this clause .
