Design & materials

The Digital Pen was inspired by our Meisterstück and is designed to complement the feel and aesthetics of your Digital Paper. This article covers the materials, physical features, and key design elements that make the pen both durable and intuitive to use.

Materials & build

The Digital Pen is crafted from high-quality resin, resulting in a lightweight yet sturdy feel. The surface is smooth with a matte finish, providing a premium grip that is neither slippery nor tacky.

  • Durable yet refined: Built to withstand daily use while maintaining a clean, minimal look
  • Matte surface: Prevents fingerprints and enhances tactile control
  • Balanced weight: Designed for long writing sessions without causing strain


Buttons & layout

Your Digital Pen features three customizable buttons, integrated seamlessly into the pen’s body.

  • Top button: Located at the rear
  • Upper tool switch: Lower side, near the tip
  • Lower tool switch: Slightly below the upper switch

Each button is discreet and positioned for comfortable, intuitive use with either your index finger or thumb, depending on how you hold the pen.


Swappable tips

The tip of the pen is removable and can be replaced with different writing tips. Each tip is designed for longevity, and the swapping mechanism ensures a secure fit while maintaining writing accuracy.



Care & handling

  • Avoid dropping the pen or exposing it to water
  • Clean gently with a dry microfiber cloth if needed
  • Always keep the pen charging on the left side of Digital Paper when not in use
