Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

So recently, my apple pencil for my 6th generation iPad started fizzling out, then just stopped working. It's finals week and a lot of my notes go straight into my iPad, so I ordered this one immediately. Was pleased to see the price tag under $40 when an apple pencil can be above $100. It took me a while to get the pencil working. It doesn't connect with bluetooth, and I had to make sure my iPad had forgotten my old apple pencil, then turn on this pencil by touching a sensor on the top. A blue light will glow telling you its on. So far, its held up really nicely. Writing is equivalent to the apple pencil in terms of smoothness and accuracy. I feel like this pencil is slightly wider and more substantial feeling, and has a solid plane where your thumb rests which adds a little comfort and control. The only big difference as far as writing goes between this and apple is that, as far as I've so far learned, you can't use the pressure sensitivity feature that an apple pencil can use, so no calligraphy writing or anything. A small sacrifice to make in my opinion for such a drastically different price tag. I managed to drop it and noticed the tip is now flattened a bit, but it hasn't stopped it from working. All in all, this is a good substitute for an apple pencil at a much lower cost. Just make sure you have a compatible model iPad!
