Update: THIS CONTEST HAS ENDED. Thank you for entering!
All this week, we’re giving away an exclusive prize: the Hand fine-tip stylus. Five of them, to be exact — one each day. And here’s the best part: if you win, you get your hands on this hot new stylus before it’s available to buy!
Last week, we told you about the Hand Stylus, a brand new product with a rubber tip that’s just 4mm wide — the minimum required size to register on your iPad’s or iPhone’s touchscreen. It’s a very smartly-designed accessory, and we’re highly impressed by it.
Steve King, the Hand’s inventor, saw our coverage and offered us five Hand Styluses to give away to Apple Gazette’s awesome readers, and of course we jumped at the chance. So this week, Monday through Friday, we’re giving away a stylus a day.
Want to win one? Of course you do. (Did I mention that you can’t buy these bad boys yet? Steve’s Kickstarter project still has two weeks to go, and even supporters won’t be able to get their Hand Styluses until a month or so after that.) Here’s how to enter.
All you have to do is “Tweet + Link.” Like this:
1. Copy & paste the following, and then Tweet it:
I want to win the world’s first fine-tip stylus from @applegazette and @handstylus! Enter here: https://spm.me/winhandstylus #contests #giveaways
2. Leave a comment on this page (below) to let us know you Tweeted, and paste the link to your Tweet paste the link to your Tweet in your comment. Tweet links can be found at Twitter.com where it says how long ago you Tweeted. (Comments are moderated, so your comment may not show up immediately.)
Hot tip: Don’t use Twitter? Post to Facebook instead! Just use the rules above, but substitute Facebook for Twitter.
You may ‘Tweet + Link’ once for each day of the contest. Contest entries are applicable to the day they were posted. (Enter on Monday, and you’re entered for Monday’s giveaway only.)
Due to shipping costs, this contest is limited only to residents of the United States.
The winners will be selected at random from comments sometime after midnight EST each day this week. The winner will be notified via Twitter (or Facebook).
Good luck!
Day One Winner: Gary Gray (@LAMacGuru)
Day Two Winner: Anna (@annapsies)
Day Three Winner: Mario Madej (@madmari)
Day Four Winner: Ausencio Cruz (@chenchocruz)

The point is a fast as an eraser. How could this possibly be considered a fine point? If you want a real stylus, you should compare this one to a jot stylus. You can’t HAVE a fine point stylus on an iPad, it won’t recognize it. The people over at Adonit.net have the right idea:
https://adonit.net/product/jot-pro/
Anything narrower than 4mm, and the screen doesn’t recognize it. Until Apple makes a screen that can recognize a truly fine tip, this is the narrowest tip possible. Even the Jot has to have that miniature disc on the end to make it work. See this page for more: https://www.applegazette.com/news/the-search-for-the-perfect-stylus-may-be-over/
Done and done!

I just tweeted. This would be really convenient to have. It looks just like one of those pens with the rubber grip. Amazing and if I won, everyone I work with would want to have a fine-tip stylus, too.
I just posted it to my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/tammy.valley.5. I hope I win!
