An IPad stylus is best for designers or people who use their iPads to takes notes, as using a stylus to type is much faster than with fingers.

Good stylus devices have great sensitivity, and sensitivity is most affected by the quality of their tip. Rubber nibs are preferable over fabric and mesh nibs as they last longer.

You probably need Bluetooth styluses. They are very expensive and not worth that cost for just a few extra features.
