Spigenfor Apple Pencil Pro Holder, Apple Pencil 2nd Generation Pencil Holder, Compatible with Magic Keyboard, Smart Keyboard Folio, Smart Folio, Magnetic Cases for iPad, Black

This product really helped to solve a problem that I didn’t anticipate having in the first place!My husband was so sweet and surprised me with a brand-new iPad Air and the (crazy expensive!) accessories of the Apple Magic Keyboard, and the Apple Pencil Pro to go along with it. I was super stoked, right up until I realized that the magic keyboard case/keyboard for the iPad didn’t come with any sort of storage option to secure the Apple Pencil Pro to the iPad to make sure it doesn’t get knocked off and/or lost.We won’t get into the fact that for the combined price point of these items, that’s pretty crazy that Apple didn’t think about it during their product design, but instead, let’s focus on the awesome solution that this affordable little Spigen gizmo brings!First, here’s the specific products I’m using it with:- Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Air 11" (M2) - White- Apple Pencil Pro - White- Apple iPad Air 11-inch (M2) 256GB - PurpleWhat I liked:- Easy to attach the holder to my case, and to put the pencil in/out of the holder. And as long as you’re intentional about how you position it, the pencil will connect with the iPad and charge, while secured with the holder.- Both the holder and the pencil are secure once placed together with the case and iPad. I can shake the case around, turn upside down, toss in my purse, etc. and they remain attached as intended.- It’s a good color match between the Apple products’ white color and the white of the holder, making it feel like a seamless part of the case visually.Less than perfection elements:- To be clear, this is a great product and overall I have zero complaints!! As far as a few tiny areas for optimization I thought it was worth noting the minor imperfections for fair comparison.- The actual mechanism to attach this holder relies on a thin metal piece that is able to interact with the existing magnets within the apple case to hold it in place. This also means that the magnetic charging strip down the side of the Apple Pencil is attracted to the metal plate, which can cause a little extra effort to make sure the pencil is oriented to connect to the charging strip on the iPad, versus the metal piece on the holder.- The holder is very secure when the iPad and case are sandwiched on either side of it, but in the event that you take the iPad off of the case, the holder isn’t able to stay in place in its intended position due to the fact that the main magnets to hold things in place are just slightly right and left of its metal plate. So in order to keep the holder with the case without an iPad, you have to scoot it to the right or left of center, which means that the pencil won’t automatically be in the correct position to charge when you put the iPad back on, and you have to remember to reposition it. It’s not a big deal, just something to make note of.

Love this little accessory. It's just the addition needed to help make my Apple Pencil a tad more secure than the magnet alone. Highly recommend for anyone whose pencil likes to detach itself in a briefcase, tote, or other. Also, around the house, it keeps everything together nicely and prevents the pencil from getting knocked off. If not needed at any point, it just slips out from between the case and the iPad and you're good to go.

This is the ONLY accessory I have bought for the Magic Keyboard so far I have liked. It annoys me beyond belief that Apple could not figure out how to do this on their $350 dollar keyboard! I am not thrilled about what I payed for this little piece of magnetic plastic so I took a star off for the ridiculous price, but it holds my Pencil Pro in place, so I don’t lose it and keeps it charged (unique among other offerings-this allows charging). It does what it is supposed to do and so far no issues but I am annoyed it was so expensive!

Excellent fit and quality. Best solution ever to keep your Apple Pencil handy and prevent losing it.

Perfect for iPad Pro 12.9 “

Universal truth: Apple products are amazing, but they are not cheap. I love that my Apple Pencil 2 recharges by magnetically. I also love the Apple Magic Keyboard for its functionality and design. Unfortunately though, the design of the Magic Keyboard leaves the Apple Pencil vulnerable to drops or even outright loss. Frankly, I’m surprised Apple didn’t offer a solution of their own.But that’s where this product comes saves the day. The design of this product combined with the magnetic hold of the iPad/Pencil secures the Apple Pencil and protects it from accidental drops or loss. Since I made this purchase, I haven’t yet dropped or dislodged the pencil. It is consistently safe and sound, charging on the edge of the iPad, exactly where it’s supposed to be.The design of this product is strong, light, and sturdy. This was a purchase well worth the money. I enthusiastically recommend it!

Magnets didn’t work on my iPad Air 13 m2 (tablet and folio), but the quality of the product looks nice.

Excellent product. Fits perfectly on my new iPad 11 Pro (Gen 3) case. Should be available thru AppleStore!
