Review on πŸ–ŠοΈ Fintie 3-Piece Silicone Bundle for Apple Pencil 1st Gen: Soft Protective Cover, Cap Holder, Nib Cover, Cable Adapter Tether - Blue by Caleb Olsen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good at first, loses grip quickly

After about 4-5 months the material of this item became too loose to function properly. The cap holder no longer sits snugly on the Apple Pencil's stem or cap, meaning the slightest touch will cause it to slip off one, the other, or both, and you'll have to crawl across the floor to find them all pieces. Charging The tether cable adapter suffers from the same problem. The noose that allows it to remain locked no longer holds and it periodically falls off. Finally, the pen cap is too long, meaning it doesn't fit well with the Fintie's silicone grip holder. You either have to slide the grip holder up too far on the Apple Pencil's stem for it to be comfortable or usable, or position it in the right place, which means the pen cap won't fit far enough into the Apple Pencil to stay thereon. The cost is good, but you'll need to replace it within 6 months of regular use, maybe less if you use your Apple Pencil on a daily basis.
