Perfect 👌🏼
Really, really good! It works exactly like the original Apple Pencil, and the quality is amazing. The price is absolutely fantastic for the quality you get. Honestly, such a great value for money!
User
nice dupe!
great apple pen and it comes with extra tips and a usb-c charger, has good palm rejection no delays, however the reason im giving this 4 instead of 5 is because the magnetic attatche,nt to ur ipad isnt so amazing, its strong enough for it to keep hold stationary but if u move ur ipad a bit it may fall down or lose its magnetic field. but its actually a really good dupe! i recommend
User
AMAZING product
Compared to any other digital pen, this is the best one since it’s not lying about anything like 2x faster charge or pixel precision while also having a good price. If your looking for a good digital pen to draw or write or pretty much anything this is one to pick

Very good value basic pencil compatible with the latest iPad Pro and iPad Air (2025 versions)
I found this little Apple Pencil clone via an online review, which has proven very useful.As both of us have new iPads, I thought it would be good to try something new but as I've never had any form of electronic pencil before, I was wary of buying the new Apple Pencil Pro at £129. What if I just wasn't a pencil person, or had no artistic talent with a drawing programme?Now I'm not going to worry about the extra functionality the real Pencil Pro has and because I don't have an artistic streak I can't comment on how well it draws, or not. I also bought this because I thought it may double as a pointer for my wife, one whose pointy end won't fail after a few weeks of use (as her cheap, disposable ones do consistently).This may not be designed as a pointer but she finds it works very well with the 'point to paint' artwork she likes to complete. In fact, I haven't really had a look-in since I asked her to try it. She says it is much easier to be accurate with this pointer's end, which makes me happy. In fairness I must say when she's using it to tap-tap on iPad Air, it is noisier than a conventional fabric tipped pointer.I think it has a good weight in your hand and looks as if it will last a reasonable time (it has a spare pointy end). It charges quickly enough, the USB-C port is convenient and the 'tap-tap' action on the pencil-end to start using it and turn off works well. As does the auto-turn off after 5 minutes.From our use, I'd say it was fit for purpose and, at a fraction of the cost of the real Apple Pencil, warmly recommended. I may even buy one for myself!

👌👌👌
I’ve been using the Metapen A8 for a while now and I’m honestly impressed with its performance. The writing experience feels smooth and responsive, very close to using an original stylus. It connects quickly and works perfectly with my iPad—no lag or interruptions.Battery life is also a big plus. It lasts for hours on a single charge, and the fast charging feature is really convenient when you’re in a hurry. The palm rejection works well, so I can rest my hand naturally while writing or drawing.Build quality feels solid and lightweight, making it comfortable to use for long periods. For the price, this is definitely a great alternative to more expensive stylus pens.Highly recommended for students, artists, or anyone who uses their iPad daily!

Won’t need the Apple Pencil (90% of the time)
This stylus is fully compatible with my iPad Air 5th Gen (10.9”). It charges very quickly, and the battery lasts long enough for extended use. It feels comfortable for writing, simple sketching, and everyday navigation on the iPad.One thing to note is that it does not support wireless charging. However, it does have a built-in magnetic side, so it attaches securely to compatible iPads, making it convenient to carry and store.The product looks exactly as shown in the listing photos. If you want a protective case or replacement tips, the accessories made for the Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) appear to fit, as they seem to have the same dimensions.If you’re not willing or able to spend the money on an Apple Pencil, this is an excellent alternative at a great price. For about 90% of everyday use, it performs exceptionally well, offering smooth writing and impressive accuracy. I would definitely recommend it.

Nice premium feel.
Works as advertised. Aluminum and has a heft to it but not too heavy - adds for the premium feel. It can attach magnetically to the iPad Pro 11” M4 without charging. Recommended over generic brands with many obviously overpriced.

Ottima alternativa all'originale!
Ho preso questa penna per il mio iPad 8 consigliato da recensioni sia su Amazon che sul web, come alternativa all'originale che si, sarà più precisa e con qualche feature in più, ma ormai superata dalla versione 2 (non compatibile col mio dispositivo), molto più costosa e soprattutto scomodissima nella ricarica.Ho provato sia questa penna che la versione più ergonomica e con qualche caratteristica in più, ma ho fatto il reso dell'altra in quanto la trovavo scomoda e senza particolari migliorie. Questa invece è molto più simile all'originale, ha una forma che ben si impugna e si può inserire nei vari portapenne integrati in alcune cover, con la ricarica usbc estremamente comoda!La penna è piuttosto minimal, dal design lineare; ha le punte intercambiabili di ricambio, la porta usbc di ricarica è sul lato con i tappini per poterla chiudere e si accende e spegne con un doppio tap in testa. E' presente un piccolo led di stato che indica con i vari colori la carica residua, la quale è piuttosto ampia di parecchie ore. Io l'ho scelta nera come ipad e cover, ma è disponibile anche in altri colori.Non ha particolari feature (le versioni più costose hanno la percentuale di ricarica ed alcuni tocchi che attivano azioni), quindi non cancella o altro se capovolta, ma riconosce l'inclinazione modificando il tratto. Non viene riconosciuta come originale per cui non si vedrà la carica nell'ipad, però una volta abbinata inizialmente si connette all'istante una volta accesa. Il tratto sul tablet è preciso, non c'è ritardo e la scrittura così come la colorazione viene naturale, indispensabile per sfruttarla al meglio in queste due modalità.L'ho testata su pellicola effetto carta, la più famosa e recensita, ma oltre ad avere un effetto a mio avviso strano, ha consumato la punta in appena 2 ore di utilizzo, per cui la sconsiglio non essendoci punte dedicate più resistenti, ed ho fatto il reso immediatamente della pellicola per evitare altri danni. Fortunatamente il segno era lieve e comunque in dotazione ci sono altre 2 punte di ricambio.Consigliata vivamente a chiunque abbia un ipad non recentissimo (controllare prima di acquistare la compatibilità!) come valida alternativa alla Apple Pencil prima generazione, dal costo purtroppo eccessivo. La seconda generazione ha effettivamente un sacco di feature che possono giustificarne il prezzo, ma la prima proprio no, e parlo da utilizzatore di Apple da anni con molti dispositivi della mela. Fortunatamente esistono queste alternative super funzionali dal costo nettamente inferiore, che comunque sono efficaci e cambiano totalmente l'uso dell'iPad nella scrittura e disegno rispetto al tocco del dito.
