It’s not quite as good, but for me it falls into the “good enough/pretty good” category. I write quickly so for me latency is very important; the latency on version one is pretty good, and so if they’ve improved that on version two, even better.
What about pressure on the pen while writing as compared to regular styluses with small tips?
My best comparison would be to a fine-tipped rollerball pen (like the Pilot Precise), on rough paper.
I don’t tend to press down very hard, but I don’t really think about it as I’m writing.
