Stylus Pen for iPad 2018-2026, Palm Rejection, Tilt Sensitivity

A couple years ago, I bought an Apple Pencil. At some point I forgot about it in a drawer. As I found out, this turns it into a doorstop due to the tiny battery, which is not replaceable (including by Apple). If it's out of warranty, you're out of luck. Frankly I find this INSANE, even from Apple. It's literal landfill merchandise, for $100. I didn't feel like blowing another Benjamin on a disposable piece of junk, so I went looking for options and settled on this one. So far I am very pleased. Even if it were priced on-par with the Real McCoy I would still probably buy this one–because I honestly think it's the superior product. Let's see: - Works every bit as well for my usage (mostly handwriting notes). Very pleasant to use, no complaints. - Noticeably lighter and better-balanced. Most people find Apple's offering to be a bit awkward and "top-heavy", and I'm among them. This one really does feel like a pencil - USB-C charging - I could buy *SIX* of these for the same price, and have a few bucks left over - Battery indicator - No pairing/BT dance: tap to wake it up, and it works Downsides so far: - The plastic is not *quite* as nice as Apple's. It doesn't feel cheap or bad, but it has a slight gloss and is ever so slightly slick by comparison. It's honestly pretty minor, and if I didn't have an Apple Pencil for comparison I wouldn't likely notice - That's really it. I can't speak to longevity yet, but it would be hard to do worse If Apple had made the battery replaceable and offered to sell me one for a reasonable price, I'd have done it. If I could bring the thing to an Apple Store and pay them to replace the battery, I'd have done that too. They deserve to lose sales for having deliberately engineered something that is so anti-consumer and bad for the environment.

I’ll preface by saying I have an iPad Pro and a 2nd gen Apple Pencil… I am definitely partial to my pencil. It is a dream to use, & if you have the money, I will always recommend it first. That being said, for Christmas we decided to get my kids each a 9th gen iPad and stylus, as I homeschool and it takes a long time to do our schoolwork one at a time on my iPad. My goal is for them to each have their books on their iPads and simultaneously do their work. However, my kids are still young and easily distracted/clumsy, or simply don’t quite understand the true value of such items yet. Thus my search for a good alternative began. I spent a long time looking at all the options here; reading a ton of reviews. I wanted as close to my own pencil in every aspect as I could get, even down to the nib style. This does all of what it claims to do. I paired it with my iPad Pro to give it a try in the meantime, and it worked great. After reading the instructions, it was easy to get it connected. I don’t notice any lag, and all of the features seem to work perfectly. I should note that you cannot close out of apps using the stylus. (As you’ll see in my video.) Please excuse the sound machine in the background, but if you listen closely, you can also hear an ever so faint ‘scratching’ sound. I am hoping it’s simply the way I was holding it, but I will be keeping an eye on that for sure. I did check the screen, but I didn’t see any scratches thus far. That will quite possibly be a dealbreaker. Also, I do miss the pressure sensitivity, but it seems as though only the pencil is equipped with that feature. It does magnetize to the iPad as claimed, though possibly not quite as strongly as the pencil, but I’m really picking here. As far as a size and appearance comparison goes, I am happy to say they are nearly identical. (Apart from the obvious charge port and battery indicator, which is honestly a welcome feature.) This stylus is maybe a hair thicker than the pencil and only a little bit longer. It is also shaped just like the pencil in that it is rounded with one beveled side which is where it magnetizes to the iPad. The pencil, however, does have a slightly more substantial feel to it, but my kids won’t notice a difference. It came with a charge cable & 3 extra nibs, but it did not come with a charge port cover; which is disappointing, but they honestly would’ve lost them anyway. I hope this was helpful!! I tried to think of all the things that mattered to me when I was searching for hours. Bottom line… definitely worth the purchase! For my kids’ needs, it’s the Goldilocks. No, you’re obviously not getting an Apple quality stylus, but you are getting a very good alternative at a very good price point. If my opinion changes as they are used, I will be sure to update! UPDATE 10/24: They’ve worked very well for our needs thus far. I will say though, that the other day my son dropped his from counter height and it must have landed directly on the nib because it completely broke it open exposing the metal tip. Thankfully I had the replacement nibs! Just be aware that they seem to be very soft & this is a risk to watch for. Still happy with the pens overall though, and definitely still recommend them. Side note, now I need to make sure I can order new nibs when I run out of the provided replacements!

I use my iPad for note taking for classes and work. I now have 3 different pens, all in what I would consider the knock-off category. Every one of them is great, charges fast, functions without problems. I thought I would need more than one in case I was using it so much that the battery would die. That hasn't happened with any of them, but I'm not using the actual pen anywhere near as often as I thought I would. To be clear, I was taking a single 90 minute class, then using the iPad throughout my work day in place of paper or typed notes. I can easily go a couple of days without even thinking about a recharge. I can't compare this to an Apple brand stylus, maybe there would be a difference, although I kind of doubt it would be enough that I would notice it. This stylus pen works great with my iPad, feels great in my hand, and has given me zero issues. Price is so inexpensive that I have backups.

The Stylus Pen/Pencil for iPad (9th & 10th Generation) delivers an excellent writing experience, making it a great addition for students, professionals, and creatives alike. Here's a detailed review: Key Features: Quick and Accurate Writing: The pencil responds with precision and speed, ensuring smooth writing and drawing on supported iPads. This makes it ideal for jotting down notes, sketching, or working on detailed designs without noticeable lag or skips. See my video for reference. Handwriting-to-Text Conversion: A standout feature is its ability to seamlessly convert handwritten words into typed text. The process is intuitive, and the recognition accuracy is commendable. Fast Charging: With its 10-20-minute quick-charge feature, this stylus minimizes downtime. I have only charged this pencil once, and the battery life seems to be quite long. The pencil also shuts off automatically after a period of inactivity, conserving power effectively. Convenience: The pencil magnetizes to the side of the iPad, keeping it always within reach. A flat edge along the pencil prevents it from rolling off surfaces, unlike the name-brand pencil, which I have heard can roll easily. Simple Operation: Activating and using the pencil is straightforward. A few taps on the top of the pencil, and it’s ready to go. You don't need to reconnect the device between sessions; simply tap the top, and you're all set. The only con I have noticed is this pencil did not come with a rubber charging port cover like some of the other alternative pencils have, not a deal breaker for me as I would probably lose it anyway. Summary: For a fraction of the price of the name-brand pencil, this pencil does everything I need it to do. It’s reliable, efficient, and packed with practical features, making it a great alternative. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a budget-friendly option.

I ordered an Apple Pencil to go with my iPad 10, and the first one I got didn’t work because the battery in the pencil went bad. Apparently the ion batteries in Apple pencils are so small when they go uncharged for long periods of time the pencil will not charge or hold a charge. I also didn’t like how I had to plug it in every time I wanted to use it to pair it. This meant carrying a cord and the Apple Pencil adapter with me anytime I planned on using it. Plugging it in was also the only way to check the charge because the Apple Pencil doesn’t have any indicator on the pencil itself. This product solves every problem I had with Apple. It automatically pairs when you turn it on. It has a double tap on/off feature that prevents accidentally turning it on and off. It has three indicator lights that tell you when the charge is good or low. It’s tilt sensitive just like the Apple Pencil, and holds a charge way longer. My favorite thing is that it comes at a third of the price of an Apple Pencil for a way better overall product.

I was surprised how well this pen worked with my iPad mini 6. The magnets line up well with my iPad (older gen pens don’t). I like the tilt feature of these pens, although there’s no pressure sensitivity. Great for a budget conscious artist.

I love this pen. it functions well and is compatible with my iPad. for some reason it's not compatible with my iPhone which is unfortunate . it's excellent value for money. the pen is comfortable to use and has good grip. Save $90!

I seriously don’t know why anyone would spend the money for an Apple Pencil when you can have this. It charges fast, doesn’t use Bluetooth, works like a dream and holds a charge even when it hasn’t been used for two weeks.
