Microsoft's official option is an elite pick that has a few advanced features that the Renaisser Raphael 520 does not. However, it costs a lot more, and many may not find the bonuses worth it.

The Raphael pen can do everything else as good as the surface slim. One exception being that I can hold a button and erase vs always flipping the pen to erase on the surface slim.
I would like to know everyone's opinion.

]]>R520 is the best MPP pen.
The slow diagonal line wobble is almost imperceptible and as good as Wacom AES wobble.
The cursor accuracy is very high.
Rechargeable, no fussing with batteries. Charge lasts days on a few minutes of charging.
I tested the pen on a slow (60Hz) MPP digitizer, so it didn't handle fast short strokes well like Wacom AES or EMR (100Hz) or Apple Pencil (120Hz-240Hz) and missed dotting "i"s when writing very fast and so on. I haven't tested the pen with the fast MPP digitizers.
The side buttons are excellent, they're flush with the pen so no accidental clicks and pressing them is very comfortable.
The nib is probably the best I've ever used, very nice friction on glass displays that makes writing a lot more comfortable than Wacom's or Microsoft's standard hard or soft nibs. It comes with two extra nibs.
This is now my go-to MPP pen for purchase recommendations.
