Customer Ratings & Reviews

This worked great as it works with both my iPad Pro 13” 5th gen and iPad mini pro A17. This eliminates the need for two pens and came in handy as one of my Apple pens was broken. While it does have the magnetic snap to both devices you do have to charge using the provided cable.

I like the Zagg Pro Stylus Pencil. It works well with my Ipad and Procreate app. The charging device is a little weird. You lay the pencil on this long cradle that has a C connector to plug in to a box or possibly your ipad. The stylus will attach to the magnetic strip on the ipad top, which is a good place to keep it unless you are taking it someplace. You should store it somewhere more secure then. Not sure if it charges up on top of Ipad but that is worthy of trying out. It is definitely a good value in comparison with alternatives.

[Employee of bestbuy] I am going to keep this short! This product is so much better than other similar item sin the market because of the fact that it includes a stylus on the back! Apple got rid of the home button and switched to gestures to do things like get to the home screen or access the control panel and with other pencils in the market for Ipads, they cannot do these things because they do not include a styles. Only the pen/pencil tip. With the Zagg pro Stylus, you can do those gestures with the flip of the pen instead of having to switch back and forth between using your fingers and then the pen. It offers fluidity and efficiency and that is why I love this product! My entire setup for my Ipad is Zagg now and I have not a one regret about that!

A fine pen when its working good weight but leaving it on my iPad drains the power and its palm resistance is kind of weak. It doesnt hold when you need to slowly and carefully select something. Got it on sale, still disappointed.

This made Lightroom on my iPad Air 3 simply amazing!! I am saddened that I did not get this sooner! Good battery life! Just be mindful that the tips aren’t made for fourth graders!!

zagg stylus - good alternative to the apple stylus very light weight

[Employee of bestbuy] Worked good initially but when you connect it to charge it keeps closing out windows on the tablet or if you black the tablet out it turns it back on and I couldn't figure out how to prevent this...no settings helped. Then both tips broke just from dropping it on the floor because they are plastic tips instead of a rubber-like material that most of the others are.

Sucks! Stopped working. The charger is to short and useless.

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly Apple Pencil alternative for note-taking, casual drawing, and general iPad use, the ZAGG Pro Stylus is an excellent choice. It offers a premium feel, solid performance, and great compatibility across various iPad models. However, if you’re a professional artist or someone who relies on pressure-sensitive drawing, you might want to invest in the Apple Pencil instead.

I have used the April pencil so I was concerned that this would be a disappointment but that is not the case. So far so good with the zagg stylus. I have used for about 2weeks and have not had to charge yet. It works perfectly with my iPad and the nub stylus on top is a nice little bonus stylus. It attaches to side of iPad just like the Apple Pencil

Eh not anything too crazy, i think it’s a decent product but Im too hard on my things. It broke pretty quickly like a couple days after purchasing but then again I just throw my items in my backpack and hope for the best. I will say my Apple Pencil and my Logitech crayon have lasted my abuse and still holding strong. I got this because of the stylus back so I could scroll too and it’s handy when answering multiple choice questions but it didn’t last. It was a heavenly couple of days though while it worked.

Connected easily with different devices. We were exploring this as a lower-cost alternative to Apple Pencil for our school staff and students. It's not as precise as the Apple Pencil, but its performance is more than adequate for educational purposes. The comfort and ease of use make it a great, budget-friendly alternative for both staff and students in a classroom setting. The only major drawback for student use is the small extra adapter for charging that is likely to be lost by younger students.

Half the price of an Apple Pencil. Attaches to the iPad and charges just like the Apple pencil. Has just as many features and comes with a charging dock in case you have an older iPad. One of the better devices from Zagg! I'd buy it again.

I was skeptical about the compatibility...wrong! This item was half the price of the Apple Pencil, but I bought it and am ever so pleased. It is awesome!

It works great with 3rd Gen iPad Pro 12". I will tell you it does not charge on the iPad. However, it does attach with the internal magnet. It comes with a separate charging "dock", it is a thin strip that attaches magnetically to the pen and indicates that it is charging with a light. However, it uses a USB-C charge cable but does not come with a plug. So, you will need an extra plug or have a usb-c connection that supports charging. It does come with one extra tip. This works great with all my programs including Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.

[Employee of bestbuy] The best overall thing about this stylus is that its half the price and dies the same thing as the Apple Pencil. It connects magnetically, connects via Bluetooth, shared across other ipads too. It can also charge just like the Apple version too which is a plus. Definitely recommend if you dont wabt to spend $130.00.

Pen takes a little time to get use to turning on and charging but overall good.

Has been a great purchase for me to use in construction to make me better.

incredibly similar to an actual apple pencil, and writes well, good battery life.

[Employee of bestbuy] 10/10 recommend. I use this one every day on my iPad mini 6th gen. I love the ease of use and it’s very comfortable to hold. I even recommend this one over the Apple Branded Pencil. It charges magnetically if your iPad supports that and also has a C port as an alternative charge. If it dies in the middle of use, you can flip it over and use the soft rubber stylus which is very convenient.
