RELIABLE METAPEN STYLUS I’ve been using this metapen for about a year now and it has been excellent. It came with a couple of extra tips, but even after I accidentally lost them the one I have been using still works perfectly. It holds charge really well I can go days without charging, - and when I do need to plug it in, it charges super fast. I use it mainly with procreate on my iPad and it’s been completely compatible with no issue at all. whether I am sketching, journaling or working on digital designs. It performs smoothly. Great value and performance for the price. Highly recommend if you are looking for a reliable stylus.

I bought this stylus and another knockoff stylus to use with my 11th gen iPad because I was not about to spend $100 on the Apple Pencil. If you’re going to buy a knock off pencil, go with Metapen because they’re actually great quality for the fact that it’s a dupe. The other knockoff I bought, which was $10, stopped working almost immediately and there was no customer service or resources online to help fix it. The Metapen, for an extra 5-10 dollars, is really pretty, has customer service representatives, has no lag, great functionality, long charge, etc. I wanted 1-2 extra styluses since they’re only $20 and I’m great at losing things, and instead of buying another random dupe, I bought from Metapen and I feel pretty confident with my purchase. The purple one and green one really are designed so well, they’re metallic with a solid weight and matching stylus tips. Since the colored ones are heavier, the grip feels more comfortable and natural. I’m considering getting some pencil grips just for aesthetics sake, but for now, the fact that the colored ones have a nice weight to them makes writing feel super comfortable and natural. The white one in comparison is plastic and feels cheaper, but it IS cheaper so keep that in mind. As far as functionality goes, the white one performs the same, just feels more like plastic in the hand. I’ve attached a photo for further comparison. The purple, green, and white styluses are Metapen A8s, the pink one is another random Amazon dupe. The green and purple are metallic in texture and heavier. The white Metapen has the same plastic body as the pink dupe, but is a little heavier. The white one is also a little thicker than the colored ones, so if you have bigger hands maybe you should go with the white one. I’ve used the green one pretty much daily for 6+ hours a day. I’m in school and hand write my notes, and I also do a lot of journaling and doodling on procreate. I bought a paper like screen protector and the stylus works really well on top of that to make writing on the iPad feel just like writing on paper. I’ve been charging my pencil every morning when I drink my coffee since I know I’ll be using it for most of the day and it’s not lost a charge on me once. I really should have just bought one backup considering how well the charge holds, but I don’t think I’ll be returning the 3rd one because it’s such high quality for a $15 product.

I do not have a bad word to say about this pen. I used an Apple Pencil for about two years before switching to Metapen instead because Apple Pencil broke and the transition was absolutely seamless, if not better. First off, connecting the Metapen is a breeze. All you have to do is double tap the top of the pen and it's immediately turned on. With the Apple Pencil, I usually had to plug it into my iPad before it would even be connected. Metapen connects much easier than Apple Pencil. As for quality of writing and drawing, there is not a clear winner, but multiple pros and cons. Apple Pencil adjusts better to tilting the pen, so if you're writing on the side of the pen to increase line size (I mostly use the pencil for art), Apple is more sensitive to slant. Metapen, however, certainly reacts better to pressure. Apple can be wildly inconsistent with line size and pressure, whereas Metapen is more consistent with line size. Overall, there is not a difference in the writing and drawing functionality, and Metapen does the same things as Apple Pencil for much less money. As for durability, that is no contest- Metapen wins. My Apple Pencil was literally shattered by the time I had to stop using it- it had electrical tape on it and Silly Putty holding the tip on. It broke way too often. I dropped it once and the cap on the charger was immediately fractured. The Metapen does not break, however. It has been trapped under books, bags, water bottles, you name it, and it's still kicking just fine. Metapen is much more durable than Apple Pencil, if only for the fact that I don't have to watch it like a newborn the way I did with my Apple Pencil. As for charging and battery life, Metapen has its pros and cons. Battery life of the pencil is about as long as the Apple Pencil's, if not a bit shorter. I could often get a week or so out of my Apple Pencil, where I get 4-5 days from the Metapen. That said, with the amount you're paying for the Metapen as opposed to what you pay for an Apple Pencil, there's an obvious choice. I spend a lot of time with my pencil writing and drawing as well, so I probably use the pencil more than the average user. Additionally, the Metapen recharges faster than the Apple Pencil, and you don't have to stop using your whole device for it to recharge. You can just plug it into a cord instead of inserting the pencil into the device like you're broadcasting to outer space. It is also easy to see how much battery you have with the Metapen. With the Apple Pencil you can see the exact percentage, but the Metapen has a small light that changes color depending on how much battery your pencil has left. I have found this feature to be quite helpful. The overall pick? Easily Metapen. I have not noticed any cons that I'd trade for an Apple Pencil for, and the value was much more worth it. Don't blow your money on a fancy stylus from Apple, give your $14 to Metapen and move on. The Metapen is just as effective and even more functional.

No set up or pairing required, works directly out of the box. Charges quickly and comes with extra pen tips. Charge lasts a good amount of time with regular use. Definitely find that the pen doesn’t always respond when clicking on things or writing, requiring you to reclick or start over. But considering the price compared to the real thing, I think this is tolerable.

I’ve been using this digital pencil for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed. It works seamlessly with my iPad, with zero lag and excellent precision. Whether I'm taking notes, sketching, or editing documents, the performance is smooth and reliable. The battery life is outstanding a full charge easily lasts me a couple of days with regular use. I also love the magnetic attachment feature, which helps keep it secure when I’m not using it. Palm rejection works well, allowing me to rest my hand on the screen naturally while writing. It doesn’t have pressure sensitivity like the original Apple Pencil, but for the price, it’s an amazing value. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, high-quality stylus for your iPad, this is a fantastic choice.
