Review on πŸ–ŠοΈ Deep Blue Stylus Pen for 2018-2020 Apple iPad: No Lag, High Precision, Palm Rejection by Michael Hudson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best alternative to Apple Pencil

This product is amazing! It fulfills every promise it advertises. It's easy to hold, it has precise input, there's no lag that I see, and it feels premium. In terms of battery life, it lasted around six hours on heavy use (I actually didn't turn it off). As a photographer, I was very concerned about decent battery life. Thankfully, the battery is up to the task. If you're concerned about that, however, I'd recommend getting a reversible USB-C cable that you can use for on-the-fly charging, but that's only if you plan on using it for around six to eight hours a day . For me, this is more than what I normally use. On average, I train four to six hours. To test accuracy, I edited a few photos; it worked great. The pen is extremely responsive and you literally feel like you are writing in oil. Also, the palm rejection software and slanted writing is an added bonus as not all Apple Pencil alternatives have this. Now let me also point out that although this pen contains a piece of metal, it is not magnetic. That said, don't attach it to your iPad's magnetic strip unless you plan on using it in the near future. If you plan on using it to travel the iPad side, don't. You may need a new pen. But it can come in handy when you're switching between apps and just need to check your email before continuing editing or drawing. several instruction manuals. Thanks also to the packaging design team because while it was simple, it was a joy to open. All in all I am more than satisfied with this purchase. Not only does it have all the features I need, but it costs four times as much as an Apple Pencil. I think that just goes to show that not everything has to have a huge price tag to be valuable.
