## Description

Buy

Review: Great item! - Really good and affordable alternative for the Apple Pencil - works just as well and allows for scribble function. Comfortable to use and doesn’t glitch like others I have tried, can lean on the screen and still write perfect! Would recommend to anyone who needs a cheaper alternative to the Apple Pencil
Review: Great pencil, with long battery life - Better than the Apple Pencil in my opinion, and it lasts a great deal of time before charges, easy on off by tapping the top twice, feels sturdy and writes well with no apparent lag, it’s quite heavy but I like that personally and it’s comfortable to hold. Fraction of the price of Apples pencil and does the same job, no contest!

## Features

- ✍【0.1 mm Pixel Precise Without Delay】: The upgraded smart chip delivers pixel-level accuracy of 0.1 mm with high responsiveness, no breakpoints, and no delays. You can enjoy writing small words and drawing fine lines with ease, just like using a real pencil! NOTE: The iPad stylus does not support pressure sensitivity
- ✍【2X Faster Charge】: Metapen Pencil A8 fully charges in just 30 minutes via USB-C and lasts up to 10 hours. 1-min charge = 50-min use; 4-min charge = 2-hour use. The LED indicator displays different colors based on battery level, reminding you to recharge in time. It automatically shuts down after 5 minutes of inactivity for efficient energy saving
- ✍【More Durable Tips】: Made of high-quality polymer, the Metapen's tips pass a 20 km durability test—2X more durable than original iPencil tips. Their internal structure remains intact even after 3,000 impacts. Each Metapen A8 pen comes with one extra replaceable tips , saving costs for frequent users
- ✍【Tilt-sensitive and Palm Rejection】: Different tilt angles create varying lines and shadows. Tilt for the shadow in [Pencil Brush] or tilt for thicker lines in [Marker brush]. Our iPad stylus supports Palm Rejection, so no need for a glove. You can rest your palm or fingers on the screen during sketching, drawing, or writing
- ✍【Quick Connect and Double Magnets】: No need to connect via Bluetooth or apps. Simply double-tap the invisible touch switch on the rounded end of A8 to power ON/OFF. With two built-in magnets, the Metapen iPad Pen securely attaches to your iPad anytime, no more rolling away or getting lost. (NOTE: Wireless Charging is NOT Supported. NO magnetic attachment for iPad Air 3rd/M2/M3 Gen, iPad 6th/7th/8th/9th/10th/11th Gen, iPad mini 5th/7th, iPad Pro M4)
- ✍【Make Sure Your iPad Model is Compatible】: Metapen Pencil A8 is ONLY compatible with the iPads 2018-2025: iPad 11/10/9/8/7/6 Gen, iPad Pro 13 inch M4, iPad Pro 11 inch 1/2/3/4/M4, iPad Air 3/4/5/M2/M3, iPad Pro 12.9 inch 3/4/5/6 Gen, iPad Mini 5/6 Gen. NOTE: The Pencil A8 is NOT compatible with iPads before 2018, iPhone, Android or Microsoft devices. Please check your iPad model before ordering
- ✍【All-powerful Assistant】: Pencil A8 uses the latest technology to accurately capture your every stroke, perfect for study, work, note-taking, drawing, sketching, designing, and video editing. Like the original iPencil, it works with iPad for smart graffiti (auto-converting rough sketches into regular shapes) and double-click on the lock screen for quick notes. It is a reliable partner for children, college students, engineers, artists, and anyone who uses iPad for digital creation

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great pencil, with long battery life

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very impressed for the price
*by J***K on 3 November 2025*

Picked up the Metapen Pencil A8 for my iPad and I’m genuinely impressed for the price. It worked straight out of the box—just switch it on and start writing. The tip glides nicely, lines are clean, and tilt sensitivity makes mark-ups and quick sketches feel natural. Build quality is better than expected and the fast charge is handy; a short top-up gets me going again. Two minor niggles: the battery life could be better (I usually need a top-up after longer sessions), and every now and then it’s a little unresponsive when I first start writing—flicking it off and on sorts it. Overall, a cracking budget alternative to the Apple Pencil for notes, PDFs and casual drawing. Not perfect, but easy to recommend at this price.
