If you've been waiting for a price drop on the new Apple Pencil, you can now grab one for less. The latest Apple Pencil (USB-C) offers pixel-perfect precision, low latency, and tilt sensitivity. It is ideal for artists, note-takers, and anyone who enjoys a smooth writing experience on their iPad. Plus, it charges via USB-C (although it's in a weird position), making it compatible with the latest iPad models.

Apple's switch from the Lightning connector to USB-C is like the tech giant finally giving in to peer pressure. Apple clung to its proprietary port for years, even as most of the tech world embraced USB-C. However, Apple had to join the party with the European Union mandating a universal charging port by 2024. Beyond compliance, Apple's switch to USB-C is one of the best moves they've made recently. It's go-to for everything from Android phones to MacBooks, offering faster charging and quicker data transfers. Plus, it cuts down on cable clutter, which is great for the environment.

Echoing our review, the USB-C Apple Pencil is a versatile tool that pairs seamlessly with a wide range of iPads, including the iPad Pro 11-inch (1st to 4th generation) and the iPad Air (4th and 5th generation). Its magnetic attachment keeps it secure when you're on the go, so you're not left fishing around in your bag for a stray stylus. And with a flat edge, it feels comfortable to hold for long sketching sessions or those marathon note-taking meetings. Whether you're a digital artist who wants precise control or a student trying to take notes without smudging your screen, the Apple Pencil makes your iPad more than just a tablet — it turns it into a portable canvas or a digital notebook.
