    I recently purchased the Thinkpad Yoga 14 (Best Buy version of the Yoga 460) and looking to upgrade the active pen for something a bit bigger than the included stylus. Lenovo's Pen Pro is listed as compatible but I was also wondering about the Wacom Bamboo Smart for 2-in-1s. The Bamboo doesn't show the Thinkpad Yoga 14 or 460 but the entire list of compatible devices is also included on the Lenovo Pen Pro list. This would make be believe it might work since they obviously share the same tech.

    My understanding is other Wacom pens are compatible but which specific ones, I could not tell you

    I watched this review by Mobile Tech about the drawing capability.



    I believe the Lenovo being assessed is the precursor to the Best Buy model, and is 12.5" with a hard drive vs. the SSD.

    I just purchased the same one you have for my wife, and the only small disappointment is the weight. She is a teacher and the overall quality, capability and build of the Yoga 14 seems to be enough to compensate for that.
