I recently picked up the Penoval AX Ultra stylus for my iPad and it's quickly become one of my favorite tools. It’s a great alternative of apple pencil. It’s totally compatible with the apple pencil’s features such as Scribble, Geometry Sensing, and Quick Notes. One of the standout features of this stylus is the Penoval app, which lets you customize the key functions. The stylus is responsive and accurate, making it perfect for sketching and taking notes. And with tilt sensitivity, I can create shadows and depict different thicknesses and depths. I’m also impressive with the palm rejection and the magnetic abosorption. I think I don’t need to buy apple pencil since I just need to take notes and sometimes I’ll draw some pictures. Overall, I'm really happy with Penoval AX Ultra It's definitely worth the investment if you're looking for a high-quality and versatile tool for your iPad.

    Color: AX Ultra 2Verified Purchase

    OK… so, I bought another stylus (for $15), then an refurb Apple Pencil Gen 1 (for $65), then this one (Penoval AX Ultra 2), not really knowing which direction I'd ultimately go.

    The First stylus I bought was a simple, Turn On and use. it worked ok, but skipped everyone once in a while (leaving a gap when writing, or simply wouldn't write at all for a second or two). So, I knew that an Apple Pencil would be better….so, I bought one from Best Buy.

    The Apple Pencil, of course, worked great. Easy paring, no skipping, and ….. Pressure Sensitivity, which I wasn't really sure I needed. Since it stays paired (unless you turn Bluetooth off) when you're not using it, the battery of the Pencil and iPad is affected. I saw the battery drop quite a bit from intermittent use. (Clarification… I don't know what the battery health of the Pencil is…it may be a bit degraded). It's going back to Best Buy.

    Now, The Penoval…. Downside: No Pressure sensitivity (Same for most third party Pens). That's it, every thing else is a Plus.

    If you connect it via Bluetooth (IF… you don't HAVE to in order to use it), you get shortcuts, via tapping the pencil, and clicking the On/Off button on the end of the pencil. Through the Note App they mention, you can map different functions for both, to different apps (GoodNotes, Notability, etc…) So, you can double or triple tap to erase, change to highlighter, undo, redo, switch to a specific tool within an app, etc…. Click the button to switch apps, return to Home Screen, and much more.

    So, that's amazing. Even the Gen 1 pencil (and Apple USB-C pencil, I believe) can't do that. However, there is a battery reduction due to the bluetooth connectivity. I don't know what's Normal, but I did notice a dip in iPad and Pencil battery — Oh, when connected, it shows up on the battery widget, which is handy.

    It can be used without connecting as well, either turning Bluetooth OFF, Forgetting device or never connecting it. It still writes wonderfully, and rejects palm interaction the same. But, from what I can tell so far, definitely reduces battery drain. I'll probably use it mostly like that…but, it's nice to know that the rest of the functionality is there when I want it.

    Great Pencil…. I hope it's durable, and last a while.

    I can't afford an Apple pen, so I crossed my fingers and ordered this pen by Penoval. I've been using it for several weeks and it's seriously a great tool. I'm not an artist, but sometimes I like to pretend I am, so I use the Pigment app to draw, paint, and color. This pen makes it so much more fun and easy!

    The battery lasts for several hours with constant use, so I have no complaints about battery life. It's well made and seems durable, even surviving a fall from the table. I'm using the original tip, and I appreciate the extras that are included.

    I recommend this pen!

    The A4 pro is a great apple pencil alternative. I use it on my ipad 9th and it works flawlessly, it has great accuracy, the tilt function works fine (not great), and it is just what I need for notetaking. The pencil does have a couple of cons, though. The battery doesn't last too long and to replace the nibs you have to buy them from Penoval's website only – because the screw-on part is too big no standard-sized nib replacement that you can find on amazon will fit. I really wanted to buy it some metal nibs but unfortunately that's not going to happen. Also, the pencil is a bit thicker than the apple pencil, which might affect whether silicone cases/sleeves will fit it. I think I got this pencil either just before the AX pro was released or I missed it when browsing, because the AX pro seems like it would be a much better fit for me – longer battery life, same diameter as the apple pencil, and standard sized nibs. Unfortunately, when I found out about the AX pro, it was too late to exchange the A4 pro for the AX pro.

    I've got the current version of the Apple Pencil and a couple of the older models (that charge with a Lightning cable) and while I appreciate their utility, it's a little frightening to carry the current version given how easy it might be to lose a $130 piece when you're tossing it in and out of a briefcase all day. So the Apple version stays with my iPad Pro 12.9 (sorry, but those magnets just aren't enough, though I appreciate it charging the way it does) and I bought this to go with a new iPad Air on the job. You have to occasionally charge this version (USB-C port, same as the new iPads) and it doesn't work with the pressure-sensitive apps, but it does allow you to change line widths by tilting the pen a bit and that's most of what's needed. Otherwise, it's accurate, has the same general weighting and hand-feel, and it comes with a couple of spare points, though I'm unlikely to need them. I mostly use it exactly the way I use the Apple Pencil when I'm taking notes or sketching. I've even done some graphics using variable line widths with it. Overall, a great value and a whole ton of usability for the money. No squawks, either — it works as advertised.

    Volevo una penna per poter prendere appunti su iPad, ho trovato quello che cercavo! Premetto che non la uso per scopi professionali, fa il suo dovere. La batteria dura abbastanza ma si potrebbe migliorare, per il resto tratto preciso e nessun problema. Le punte sono molto delicate ci si deve fare attenzione, però si hanno tre ricambi per sostituirle.

    Aparentemente uma boa caneta, mas o botão fica preso ao carregar, o grande diferencial é utilizar os atalhos permitidos pelo botão. Mas não pode ser utilizado porque o botão fica preso várias vezes.
