Whether you want to create art on your iPad or Android tablet, or just do some quick sketches, what's the best way to commune with your touchscreen? Some go with a basic, bog-standard stylus; others prefer to just use their finger. But for some designers, the stylus is a crucial buying decision, reflecting their personal style as much as the clothes they wear - at the very least showing that they take the act of drawing very seriously.

It’s at the latter group that the Jot Flip is aimed. The $40 stylus is a piece of honed engineering, with a pleasing robustness and style to spare. The mix of steel and rubber is exquisite; the fine-point ink pen that appears from the barrel when you twist it is a touch of class. It’s not just a stylus: it’s a statement. But for artists who use their iPad or Android tablet as a daily sketchpad, what counts is the drawing.
