The latest Apple Pencil is almost as cheap as the original right now. All of the best Prime Day Apple Deals are poised to sell out fast, though, so here’s why you need to shop the sale ASAP.
In honor of Prime Day, the 2nd Generation Apple Pencil is $89, just $10 more than what the 1st Generation model is selling for.
The latest version is thinner, smaller and feels like you’re using an actual pencil. The Apple Pencil 2 also has a flat edge and matte surface that makes it easier to hold while writing. The flat edge doubles as a button with a double-tap function so that you can alternate between drawing, writing and erasing.

The charging process is streamlined as well with the second model. As opposed to a lightning cord, Apple Pencil 2 magnetically connects to your iPad to charge.
Both generations do share similarities. Apple Pencil 1 and 2 feature tilt and pressure sensitivity to help you paint, sketch and write with precision. If you’re opposed to typing, write on your iPad as if it’s a notepad and strike through documents without having to print out large quantities of paper.
If these products are beyond your budget, we found a similar version with nearly 75,000 positive reviews. The JAMJAKE Stylus Pen lets you draw and take notes on your iPad effortlessly thanks to palm rejection technology, which lets you write naturally and more accurately.
Before your fall work schedule loads up, we recommend shopping the Apple Pencil during Prime Day. Products are selling out fast, so check out the sale ASAP while discounts last.
