Clicking the mark as good answer button helps us highlight the best answers.
The tip is plastic and clear so it slides easily on the screen and you can see exactly where you're drawing (unlike with a finger or most styluses which cover up the actual point you're drawing at).
Build quality is amazing, it feels great in your hand, and it's got magnets for "storing" it on the edge of your iPad 2 when you're not using it (I think this is the Pro one only).

It's a bit dated but the stylus have not changed that much. I tried the Kensington one but didn't like it at all, at least from the perspective of writing. The rubber nub on the end of it didn't make the writing experience easy.

Apple retail sells a thinner pen whose name I have forgotten, but it was too sticky to use for long. Nib feel seems to be a problem lots of brands are trying to work out.
The best stylus I've tried so far is the Wacom Bamboo, which has a nice screen feel and is small enough to read as you're writing. The only problem with that pen is that the nib has a tendency to wear out quickly; you can buy new nibs, fortunately, but they're out of stock at the moment.

I can recommend the XGR5 by XGear

It is very useful, because it not only is a stylus, it also provides a regular pen, so you only need to carry one pen around for iPad and paper.
Kind regards

The tip was a bit finer than any other I tried, and its weight and size felt good.
