Review: Very good value basic pencil compatible with the latest iPad Pro and iPad Air (2025 versions) - I found this little Apple Pencil clone via an online review, which has proven very useful. As both of us have new iPads, I thought it would be good to try something new but as I've never had any form of electronic pencil before, I was wary of buying the new Apple Pencil Pro at £129. What if I just wasn't a pencil person, or had no artistic talent with a drawing programme? Now I'm not going to worry about the extra functionality the real Pencil Pro has and because I don't have an artistic streak I can't comment on how well it draws, or not. I also bought this because I thought it may double as a pointer for my wife, one whose pointy end won't fail after a few weeks of use (as her cheap, disposable ones do consistently). This may not be designed as a pointer but she finds it works very well with the 'point to paint' artwork she likes to complete. In fact, I haven't really had a look-in since I asked her to try it. She says it is much easier to be accurate with this pointer's end, which makes me happy. In fairness I must say when she's using it to tap-tap on iPad Air, it is noisier than a conventional fabric tipped pointer. I think it has a good weight in your hand and looks as if it will last a reasonable time (it has a spare pointy end). It charges quickly enough, the USB-C port is convenient and the 'tap-tap' action on the pencil-end to start using it and turn off works well. As does the auto-turn off after 5 minutes. From our use, I'd say it was fit for purpose and, at a fraction of the cost of the real Apple Pencil, warmly recommended. I may even buy one for myself!
Review: Best budget alternative to Apple Pencil - If I could give this 6 stars I would. I bought this 6 months ago and have used it every day since. I really like the ‘official’ Apple Pencil. It is expensive, one version doesn’t always work with the next generation iPad and it has more feature than I need. So I thought I’d try this as an alternative. It’s absolutely brilliant. Metapen is a very practical design, charges v quickly - Metapen made a design compromise with the usb-c charging point - The pen does everything I want. It seamlessly connects, very easy to switch on and off. It is very responsive, fits comfortably in my hand, and I don’t worry about losing it… I write very few reviews and I have not received a free pen or any incentive to write this review. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, affordable and does what it’s supposed to!
*by L***N on 3 November 2025*

This pencil is great! Response time is perfect and I love using it to colour in on my iPad. It seems very durable, easy USB-C charging port and has a charge indicator on it so you know when you have to charge it. The battery life is also pretty good, I’ve only had to charge it once since I got it 2 months ago. It’s a good size, length, thickness, I wish it was a touch heavier. Comparing it to my actual Apple Pencil it is very similar, my Apple Pencil feels quite heavy in comparison, I’m used to my Metapen now and much prefer it.
