Review on πŸ–ŠοΈ Apple Pencil Accessory Set: Grip, Holder, Cover, and Protective Nib Cover - Blue by Octavius Webster

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pencil sleeve Not good, pencil tips Great!

Assembly problem: very difficult to assemble. Because silicone has high friction and it's almost impossible to move the pen sleeve up when the pen sleeve reaches halfway up the pen, I gave up on the first try and decided to return it. During the night I made a second attempt and with great difficulty managed to fix it. This sleeve will die with your pencil, you cannot remove it without damaging the sleeve (hopefully just the sleeve and not the pencil). First impression: I liked the feel, the pencil feels better in the hand, more comfortable. Kudos for the included pencil tips!. If you don't have paper-like screen film (which I've heard affects screen color and sharpness), these tips will make note-taking a lot easier. The Apple Pencil's tip is hard and almost doesn't rub against the glass, which doesn't contribute to the most comfortable and accurate writing, not to mention the annoying nib noise of the nib when the glass and nib come into contact. These tips solved the problem and I didn't experience any of the lags or similar things mentioned in other tips reviews. More about the sleeve, the pencil is not charged. Someone wrote that while the iPad didn't signal that the stylus was charging, it did end up charging. Well not my case, I left the iPad charging overnight with a stylus on it, no charge, no charge. Not suitable for 2nd generation pencils. :(I'd love to keep this, I like the smooth feel when holding a pen, but it's useless if the pen can't be charged. I need to take it off and if I can do it without damaging the case, I will return it, otherwise I'll take the loss and leave the tips!These silicone tips definitely improve noting.
