Review on ๐Ÿ–Š๏ธ Apple Pencil Accessory Set: Grip, Holder, Cover, and Protective Nib Cover - Blue by Matt Norwood

Revainrating 4 out of 5

not recommended for artists/heavy use

I bought this because I tend to hold my pencil very low and most other cases I've seen don't cover the area the I need. the greatest discomfort. I also liked that it has a top coating. At first I wanted to buy a tip coating because I'm worried my pencil tip will wear off from using the matte protective film. So I was glad this case came with two. However, when I received my package I was very disappointed with the writing experience I had with the nib and one of my nibs had a hole in it. As I wrote on the screen, it seemed like rubber was being driven across glass. There is a lot of friction, which makes it very uncomfortable and not suitable for artists or students who often use it to write notes. I am very happy with the actual case. Writing with a bare pencil was very painful because it pressed into the bone. case solved my problems. However, it hasn't even been a month since I've been using it and I can already tell the case is diminishing. If I write for a few minutes (e.g. 20 minutes) I notice that the cover starts to slip and I have to keep tightening it. Now when I press the stylus you can hear the silicone make contact with the stylus. it didn't when I first got it. However, I use my pencil for a few hours every day (I'm in high school and use it to take notes), so my needs may be different from yours.

Pros

Cons
