The Dell Premium Active Pen (PN579X) is a lightweight black stylus designed for use with Dell 2-in-1 Windows Ink compatible displays. It supports multiple protocols — MPP 1.51 (Microsoft Pen Protocol), Wacom AES 1.0 and AES 2.0 — enabling broad compatibility across Dell 2-in-1 notebooks. The pen offers Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity, magnetic attachment on supported devices, an included lanyard option, and up to 12 months of battery life with a one-year limited hardware warranty.

Advantages

Customizable top and side buttons let you launch OneNote, take screenshots, erase, or open context menus. Palm rejection reduces accidental input when resting your hand on the screen. The pen is lightweight (approx. 19.5 g) and attaches securely via magnet or lanyard on supported notebooks.
