Is there a compatible pencil for apple pencil 1st generation with palm rejection?

[@gelaigurl]

You should’ve demonstrated using each pencil 😕

[@ms.carlawong]

well, just my suggestion, that would be nice to see how the result on each pencil on writing or drawing rather than just talk about the pencils. Who cares how tall the pencil is or how thick the pencil is, etc ....

[@gundampharmacist7348]

Part of me hates I'm being pulled further into the Apple ecosystem but the iPad Airs have been so good to me as a student - and even with the base options, I'm happy considering I built myself a NAS to not have to worry about storage. That said, I feel like a shill - I knew there were cheaper styli out, but I felt I needed the Pencil 2 and Air 4 because of that magnetic charging. I've lost precious time on quizzes because my Pencil died on my Air 3 and I had no other way to write. I know the Air 4 is questionable given its price point but I really don't need a Pro, and the Air 4 literally solves the few problems I have with the Air 3.

[@minusthesparkle]

Thank you! I have a 2019 budget, bought summer 2020; with the first gen pencil. Loving it but I think I’m going to get a budget pencil for outings.

[@gr8ride411]

Good review, I enjoyed the comparisons and now I'm comfortable with my purchase of Pencil #1.👍🏽 I bought pencil #1 shortly after getting the Apple pencil 2 for use with my newly acquired iPad Air. It does everything I need it to do for me as I'm a non-artist, and primarily use it to highlight reading passages, sign pdf's, and draw diagrams. It works fantastically well and the touch on & off button at the top hasn't been a problem for me. The Apple pencil is being returned this week and I'll save $90. in doing so. Also, Amazon has a version of this exact pencil called the Switch Easy Pro, which is the one I bought. Great features as well. 💰

[@TheFelie6]

Pencil 1 is really great. I’ve used it for abt 2 months now and the palm rejection is so great! The only thing missing is just pressure sensitivity but for a notetaker it’s not a huge dealbreaker

[@xray364]

I’m surprised no comment was made on which did or did not support palm recognition. Seems to me like an important feature. Maybe they all didn’t support it but would have been worth mentioning.

[@Ellie-vm2tc]

for those of you wondering, they changed the way Pencil #3 charges. it now charges with a USB-C port instead of the weird way Harris was talking about. however, as of 12/17/22, the pencil is unavailable.

[@peterxyz3541]

This review is irrelevant because: IF all clones function identically or “close enough” then price is the only factor. The holy grail of clones is pressure sensitivity

[@xray364]

I don’t believe there is any clone that supports pressure sensitivity. Not even the Logitech Crayon supports this feature. Obviously Apple kept this feature to itself and didn’t share the technology with Logitech.

[@CatJMarshall]

Totally. Pressure and tilt are essential if you’re comparing functionality to Apple Pencil.

[@samsantana]

@@CatJMarshall not necessarily, unless you are using the pencil for illustration/photography then those functions are not an issue, for example if taking notes is the main/only need then any of the clones is a better option.

[@TheRealMK67]

Hi Harris, good review. Life seems to be treating you well! I like how you're showing more of your personality & mannerisms to these videos. 👍🏽 My 15 second ramble -> These 3rd party options are all good, especially for the every day note taking user. The price point, compared to the Apple Pencil is great, but compared to a box of #2 pencils (you can get 150 for $12.99 on Amazon), you quickly see how extremely expensive these things are "I just need something to write with". Sure we can debate that it's not an "apples to apples comparison" (no pun intended) but I believe the price point of these accessories (and many other accessories in general) need to be much better.

[@HarrisCraycraft]

Yep, I don’t think anyone disagrees that these are premium writing devices. The iPad is obviously thousands of times more expensive than loose leaf paper. For some it’s way overkill, and for some it’s a justified luxury 🤷‍♂️

[@egel7736]

A serious advantage is that you won’t have to use tons of paper when using an iPad for note taking, which is a lot better for the environment!
