The USB-C charging feature is incredibly convenient—being able to charge the Pencil directly from the iPad means I never have to worry about it dying in the middle of a lecture or study session, ensuring continuous productivity. Additionally, the ergonomic design makes it comfortable to use for extended periods, which is perfect for those long study marathons.
The seamless integration with the iPad, combined with the comfort and functionality of the Pencil, makes it ideal for note-taking, drawing, and annotating documents. It's a must-have for any student looking to enhance their digital workflow and keep their academic life organized.

I prefer the Hou Hot Key iPen because it is MUCH better if you are an artist, especially if you draw/paint very quickly. With the iPencil I have to stop my creating & go to the Apple tool bar to undo my last stroke or to use the eraser. The Hou is seamless for a quick artist because you don’t have to stop & go to the tool bar. You just click one Hot Key to undo and the other Hot Key to turn the Hou iPen into an eraser.
If you don’t do art or do your art slowly, then the above won’t matter; however, the steep price difference SHOULD matter.
If I had to choose only one, I would choose the Hou in an instant over this iPencil. It’s my favorite, by far…and I have used two other iPencil knock offs as well.
1. The cap doesn't come off (it just slides up), so you never lose it. I have a 15 month old son, and I was really worried he'd get ahold of it and swallow it with my 1st gen.
2. The flat side connects to the side of the ipad magnetically and when attached, goes to sleep which saves the battery.
3. The battery lasts a lot longer than the 1st gen. I had previously needed to charge my 1st gen every day. But with this one, I charge maybe every 3 days.
Only cons for this is that you have to connect it via the USB-C cable (rather than the lightning port on all previous ipad generations with the 1st gen pencil), and there is no wireless charging.
