I was very interested in buying this device. It support Linux and comes pre-installed with a desktop-environment of my choice (cinnamon, xfce...). However, I couldn't figure out if it has stylus support or not. According to this youtube video, it does not. According to an answer on quora,
"A capacitive touch stylus [that] will work on any phone or tablet."
Whom can I trust?
Yes and no, depending on what kind of stylus you mean.
All capacitive touch-screens (the usual kind on phones) will "support" a stylus that emulates the capacitance of a human finger, with no additional components needed. It's not very precise, however – although better than a finger, but I'm not sure if it would be suitable for drawing.
What the video talks about is a different kind of stylus – one that does require a special screen with a digitizer that's just for the stylus (not necessarily a touch screen, although it can be both). For example, many Wacom drawing tablets are not touch-sensitive at all (for that matter, many of them are not even displays) – though, their page says that their newer devices use a kind of capacitive sensing that works with both pens and fingers, but apparently still more advanced than that of regular touchscreens.
There's essentially 2 kinds of touchscreens - most phones and tablets have capacitive touch screens and essentially, a 'capacitive touch stylus' has a conductive tip that your screen can pick up. Some capacitive screens also support 'active' styluses that do a better job at pressure sensitivity.
The other type is resistive, which will work on any sort of pressure and is generally inferior to capacitive touch screens. No one uses them these days and any pokey thing that won't damage the surface of the screen will work
If you want a stylus for art, the setup your device has probably isn't the best, you want an active stylus. If you want it to tap at things and do things like circle things on an image, its likely good enough.
