Absolutely a key alternative to the Apple Pencil. One key difference between the Apple Pencil and the Logitech Crayon is that the Crayon doesn’t have pressure sensing the like Apple Pencil does. If that is a downside or necessity for you, you may want to get the Apple Pencil (2nd Gen). In addition, the Apple Pencil has lower latency than the Logitech Crayon that is noticeable, but not a deal breaker.

Thank you for your insightful review of the Logitech Crayon. Your detailed comparison of pressure sensitivity and latency between the Crayon and Apple Pencil is particularly helpful. This information will be valuable to users considering both styluses.

Got this for my daughter who loves to draw and she learns to write her traditional Chinese characters for school. So far, it has a pretty decent charge and immediately worked with her iPad.

This works as a substitute for the much more expensive apple pencil. I use it for note taking and annotations so I don't need the pressure sensitivity. My only complaint is that I have to turn it on for each use rather than having it paired all the time.

I have been using the Pencil for over 10 montés and really like it, it very practical and helps me to take notes in the iPad, some times due the shape can be a but uncomfortable but nothing to be alarmed of.

So seamless and easy to use. Charge lasts a long time. Wish it had pressure sensitivity but not a deal breaker.

Love this pencil. I like the way it charges more than the Apple pencil itself. It’s easy to write with and I don’t have to worry about my hand being on the screen while I write.

I bought this pencil instead of the apple pencil because it was cheaper and it had better reviews. I love how long the battery life is and that you are able to shut it off when you are done using it.

I feel like it doesn’t exactly capture my handwriting but I think it takes some getting used to! Really easy to charge and use. Use it for online notes, really great product! Cheaper than the Apple Pencil as well!

So easy to use with my 6 gen iPad. I had many issues with getting the Apple Pencil to work with my device and the Logitech crayon connected immediately. Battery life is great and it’s perfect for drawing/ taking notes/ etc.

The Logitech crayon is very nice and does a great job , It does basically everything but the Apple Pencil does but it’s cheaper it’s not round so it won’t roll away, and I think all around good buy !!

I purchased this crayon that works perfect on my new iPad. It might not have all the “features” of an apple pen, but it not only does the job, but it costs almost half of the apple pen, specially if you can get it at the student special pricing.

I bought this when I left my Apple Pencil at home during a work trip. I did not want to spend the extra on another Apple Pencil (especially considering that you no longer get Reward points at Best Buy on Apple products.)
This works exactly as advertised. I have had zero issues with functionality. In my opinion, it's just not as good, or comfortable, as the Apple Pencil. I prefer the "always on" function of the Apple Pencil and the fact that it automatically connects by plugging into the Lightning connector. With the Logitech, you have to set it up in Settings. Also, you have to Power on the Logitech to use it. I know those sound like silly gripes, but when you are accustomed to something working on its own, it just adds steps that are not needed with the Apple Pencil

Good value if you dont wanna spend on apple pencil and works great. Charges with lighting cable (iphone) so if you have a usb c ipad it might be an extra charger

Second one of these I've bought for my daughters' iPads. Cheaper choice than Apple Pencil. Only missing pressure sensitivity. Otherwise a solid stylus choice.

Works well it’s my iPad Mini.
I have any Apple Pencil for use with my 12.9 iPad Pro, but not wanting to remember to move it from case to case, (depending on which one I was carrying), I wanted a cheaper alternative to get a second digital pencil.
This works very well and is comfortable in the hand. While I occasionally take notes with it, the primary usage is transposing music.
The only issue is that the power indicator/charging light stopped working. I still get the red light when it needs a charge, but the green light that should come on when it is powered up or reached full charge has stopped working.
Overall I am pleased with the product.

Better design than the Apple Pencil as it’s flat and will not roll away and the cap stays attached to the pencil when charging… It costs less than the Apple option as well, which is even better!

Great Apple Pencil alternative for those who appreciate not having to plug into the iPad to charge. This is also more engineering-focused in terms of the design itself, so I like that as well.

Logitech continues to push the boundaries if you are not willing to pay the price for Apple. Intuitive, smooth, battery life quality. Works amazing for all the creatives and music production folks.

No pairing process; just power up and go. Very pleased with how it works. The only con would be the shape. A little awkward to comfortably hold. Wish there was a way to see remaining battery, other than the very general LED light.

A good alternative for Apple Pencil. Easy-grip but since it is flat, I tend to write harder. Little to less pressure sensitivity and sometimes skips a letter when writing.
