If you want to paint, sketch, write notes, or design on your iPad, there is no better tool than the Apple Pencil. Both the first- and second-generation Apple Pencil are leaps and bounds ahead of all over styluses for the iPad. Due to its amazing pressure sensitivity, fantastic palm rejection, and seamless integration into iPadOS, there’s no reason not to get an Apple Pencil for your iPad this Cyber Monday.
The first-generation Apple Pencil misses some of the features that the second generation features — like the magnetic storage and inductive charging so you don’t have to plug it into the Lightning port on your iPad — but that doesn’t mean the first generation isn’t worth getting. The newest iPad and iPad mini only work with the first-generation Apple and you can still sketch, paint, or write with excellent precision.
