# Xencelabs V2 pens notes
## Summary
These are good-performing pens with a good pressure range.
## Models
* 3 Button Pen + Eraser v2 (XMCPH35)
* Thin Pen + Eraser v2 (XMCPH36)
## Compatibility
* These V2 pens do not work with the earlier Xencelabs pen tablet model (BPH1212W-A) that came with the V1 pens.
## Appearance
* These V2 pens are slightly different from the previous V1 pens. The thing that visually distinguishes them most is a small yellow Xencelabs logo near the eraser. This is a nice branding touch. I wish other tablet manufacturers followed this pattern.
