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.

Excellent Apple Pencil Substitute

After I lost my Apple pencil, I was wondering whether to buy the same model replacement, or buy a newer model. However, since I am only using an older ipad version, I could only use the same model (Pencil 1). Since I was thinking of upgrading my ipad soon (for higher storage), I couldn’t just stick with the older Pencil 1, because it may NOT be compatible with the new ipad. So I looked for alternatives, and Insignia active stylus was a cost-effective substitute. It was a bir confusing in the beginning to set-up and pair, but eventually, I got it to do just that. Today, it has been an amazing pencil.

Honestly, for the price, and its purpose I can’t complain about the quality of this pen. When it’s clise to death it will lag across the screen; the tips are easy to replace as best buy sells them dirt cheap as well. The lags from this pen are mainly from wrist contact with the screen. However good substitute for an apple pen, Apple sucks.

Great Apple Pencil Alternative

I have been pleasantly surprised with how well this Apple Pencil alternative has worked out. The dimensions are identical to the Apple Pencil and it writes very well. Battery life has never been an issue. I will say the the only reason I knocked it 1 star is because the magnets do not align with the 2024 Apple iPad Pro models so make sure you have place to store the pencil when not in use. Also, Apple Pencil replacement tips do not work with this alternative version so the design is close but exact. So far, I have no regrets with going with a non-Apple branded accessory.
