metapenPencil A11 for iPad 2018-2025, (Quick Button), 0.1mm Pixel Precise, 2X Faster Charge Stylus Pen Compatible Apple iPad 11 A16/10/9/8/7/6th Gen, Pro 12.9/11/13-inch M4, Air 3/4/5/M2/M3, Mini 5/6

I bought this for my daughter‘s birthday back in September. She got a new iPad for her birthday and he’s always been into art so I wanted to get her one of the Apple pens but to be honest paying the price for one didn’t seem justified maybe for the amount of use that she was going to use it. I opted for a cheaper version of the pen one with half decent reviews and I have to say it’s worked perfectly fine. I don’t think there’s any difference in this pen or the Apple pen if I’m honest charging is nice and easy comes with a small little charging lead which can be charged from the iPad comes with easy to use instructions and some cool little extras on the side of the pens that we didn’t realise for taking screenshots and such. My daughter is 11 finds it very easy to use really likes it and I think it’s worth the money quite honestly even if it lasted a year for the money it really is worth it compared to the expense of an Apple pen would definitely definitely recommend recommend is compatible perfectly with the Apple iPads.

its a great prodcut .. look at the settings carerfuly and download the app. set up correctly and its excellent - very responsive. Charge lasts for ever

I wanted a second pencil to use with the 2014 iPad Air M2, and the A11 proved a good option.It can work with and without bluetooth connectivity, does all the basic pencil writing/editing, and feels and functions well. With bluetooth switched on, its button can be defined with three functions and can be defined to work with specific apps such as procreate.The limitations include only USBC charging, so magnetic attachment to iPad M2, and being a little thicker than pencil pro. The company advised that they have no plans to produce a pen similar to the pro because of confidentiality with the new apple design.The A11 does not work on bluetooth at the same time as the pencil pro, and it just stops working when the pro is connected. However, switching off bluetooth will allow A11 basic functionality but not anything defined with its button. You can forget the pro on bluetooth to allow A11 full functionality, or if the pro is not in the vicinity then A11 will just kick in as the pro will not connect.I also tested the A8 Air at the time, but returned it and kept the A11. The former does only the basic functionality as the A11 so no bluetooth connectivity, but allows a much longer battery life (20 hours vs 8). It is also a third lighter than the A11.Overall, The A11 is a good substitute to the pro at a lower cost (£16 in the sale when purchased). I would have been more encouraged to get the Apple USB pencil if the A11 price was the full £32.

Worked great for the kids Ipad, seems to still be working great after a few months of abuse by a young child. Overall great value product

Fantastic, works great with tablet. No issues with compatibility.

Writes really well, good battery life and charges quickly. Stopped working after a few months, but good service from Rosie at Metapen and was refunded without fuss - I have now bought a new one.

I have had this for a few days, and it is erratic when it comes to charging. The light doesn't work, it won't switch off, and it dies 30 seconds after powering up. It is very lightweight. And for some, that might be positive.EDIT: I have heard from the company, and they are replacing the pen. This is very fast, and efficient service which fills me with more confidence than I had. I've upgraded the pen from 1* to 3* simply because of the no-fuss attitude of the company.I will make changes once I've had my new pen and can try it out properly. And I look forward to doing so.

NEW - Update on Review:-"Metapen contacted regarding my purchase review a few days after I sent the A11 Pencil back.The Customer Service Rep was excellent in dealing with my complaint and she truly wanted to fix it. She dealt with and resolved the issue quickly and in a professional manner; she offered a replacement model of this Pencil which is the A8. I accepted the offer and received this the next day.The A8 is brilliant! It charges quickly and holds the charge extremely well. I have had no issues whatsoever and am a very happy customer, thanks to Metapen's excellent Customer Service... Everything is now perfect. Now I have a Pencil which works brilliantly in every way."It is such shame because it is a lovely design and lightweight but it is no good if it can't hold a charge.I will be sending this product back to Amazon as it won't charge properly. It charged when I first received itbut since then, when it shows red, I connect it to charge; eventually the light changes to white so I assume it is charged. However, when I disconnect the pencil it turns to red again. Therefore it is useless.
