Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the second stylus I've used with my iPad Pro; I've never used an genuine Apple Pencil because that price tag is too high. This Insignia Active Stylus is a great alternative. First, I love the simplicity in turning this device on and off, just two taps on top and you're off and running. The other pencil I used required additional steps to turn it on and to charge it. I'm not crazy about the battery life, as compared to my other second party pencil. However, unlike the other said pencil, this Insignia pencil charges much faster, so I'm back to tapping in no time. When I ordered this pencil, I didn't purchase the replacement tips right away in case I didn't like it, but after only a day of using it, I bought a pack of replacement tips post haste. This pencil is a great, less expensive alternative to the name brand version. I couldn't tell you if it's better or worse than the original, but I can't see the original being worth more than twice the cost of this product. Highly recommended.

Very good pen! Very easy to use and just flows right !

This stylus pen charges easy and lasts long. It also is easy to grip

This pen is a nice addition to my iPad and works easily via Bluetooth connection. Charges quickly with a standard USB – C plug. It fits my needs perfectly and a considerable class savings over an Apple brand it home.

Honestly, I'd buy this before the super expensive "Pro" model made by Apple. This is like 25% of the price when you buy it on sale, and it's easier. I personally don't care for the magnet charge on the side of the iPad Pro. It's too easy to lose, etc.

Have not come across any technical issues with this product. So happy that I have it now and do not have to try drawing/ writing on prints with my finger. I AM STILL IRRITATED that I could not buy anything else because the link disappeared after that one purchase. Would have been thrilled to get multiple pens for Christmas/ birthday gifts... or a different item... But the Indian people on the customer service chat told me it was a one day only sale (regardless of the 08/31/2025 end date in the message)!!! And it took over an hour to get that out of them after being passed around between 4 CSRs. Still tempted to cancel my membership regardless of "the benefits", and return the headphones too.

I got this thing for half the price of the apple pencil and it works on each of my multigenerational ipads. Unless you need the fancy features that only a very neiche market I would stick to this guy you can give him multiple of these for the price of an Apple Pencil. No setup required works right out of the box.

Works great. Easy to chap, use and maintain. Would buy again.

This pencil is very similar to the usb c apple pencil. I woukd recommend it if you dont have the budget for it. However i would say if you can just save for the better pencil go for that one because it will improve the experience by far. So either the gen 1 or gen 2 pencil woukd be great. If you have the newer ipad air or pro then you can buy the pro pencil. All in all, for the price its good enough.

Great pen for a great price. Have had no problems and works well with my daughters IPad. I also got a hard case for her that had a place for the pen so not to get lost. Works great and has held up for over a year now.

I love it! I purchased it because I lost my Ipad pencil pro. I wish I found this item before I purchased the Ipad pencil. This is sooooo much better and I like the fact that you can save battery by turning it on and off without attaching it to my ipad. The only thing I don't like is that there isnt a cover for the charging port.

Works amazing. Haven't had any issues. Charge last forever! Prefer this over the Apple pen!

Only had a short time but seems to work fine with an ipad and much more affordable. No way did I want to drop $100 for something my kid is inevitably going to lose or break. This was a good alternative

I went out of town and forgot to bring my apple pencil pro and didn't want to buy another one when I already had one waiting for me at home. This was a good purchase for the price. It gets the job done.

Purchased for drawing in conjunction with the Ipad A16. Works great and saved money vs buying an Apple pencil.

Took me a minute to get it to connect but it works great and so much cheaper than the Apple brand. Highly recommend

It’s inexpensive and has lasted me for a long period of time. It connects to several devices at ease. I mainly use it for my Calculus work. So I tend to use it for hours on end on the daily. I recommend this item.

Works better than I’d hoped and took literal seconds to set up and use. Charges very fast and lasts a long time!

Great pencil to use on your iPad. Easy to set up and charges up quickly. Easily fits into your iPad and easy to use.

Way more cost efficient than an apple pen and works just as well. Worth the purchase if in the market.
