Great value IPad pencil
Fabulous pencil - does everything I need it to - Fits nicely in my IPad’s cover, bright white colour so I can easily find it - easy to charge - which isn’t often - lasts well on a single charge. Sturdy. Helpful to have spare tips, but not needed those yet

Great accessory for your tablet
Great quality and value for money looks like the picture, couldn't turn it on at first, then I realized you double tap the top of the pen. Quick charge. Colour is lovely, matches my tablet cover. Has a magnet inside, attaches to the side of your tablet cover. Writing is smooth. Comfortable to hold, easy to use, recommend

Great Value Note-Taking Stylus, Solid Alternative to Apple Pencil
I’ve been using the MetaPencil with my A16 iPad for about a month, mostly for note-taking, and I’m quite impressed. It feels light and premium, giving the sensation of a high-end stylus at a fraction of the cost of the Apple Pencil. For anyone who wants a reliable and stylish option without paying Apple’s price, this is a solid choice. The pencil works very well for everyday note-taking. It responds to pressure reasonably accurately and feels natural when writing or sketching quick diagrams. It isn’t as smooth as the Apple Pencil, and occasionally it can lag during intensive use, but for most tasks, it performs very satisfactorily. On the downside, the battery life isn’t outstanding, and the charging port doesn’t have a protective cover like the Apple Pencil does. These are minor inconveniences but worth keeping in mind if you plan to use it heavily or worry about wear and tear over time. Overall, I would recommend the MetaPencil for its value. It’s a great choice for students, casual note-takers, or anyone who wants a premium-feeling stylus without spending a lot. That said, if you write a lot or rely heavily on the Apple ecosystem, the Apple Pencil might be worth the extra investment since it’s smoother, more responsive, and better integrated with iPadOS. In short: excellent for the price, premium feel, solid performance, but the Apple Pencil still wins for heavy users.

Blown Away!
Absolutely blown away by this stylus. For a fraction of the price of an Apple Pencil, it delivers everything you actually need – smooth writing, solid palm rejection, and zero lag. Setup was instant (no faffing with Bluetooth), and the battery life is seriously impressive. It feels great in hand, has a clean, premium look, and magnetically snaps on like the real deal. Unless you’re a professional artist who needs pressure sensitivity, this is a no-brainer. For note-taking, sketching, or everyday use, it’s basically 90% of the Apple Pencil for about 10% of the price. Genuinely one of the best value tech buys I’ve made. Highly recommend.

Great value for money
Love it! Good quality, easy to use and does the job. Why spend hundreds when you can have an amazing pen for a fraction of the price? I was so pleased that I bought another one for my husband 🙂

Excellent product and a good price too!
This pen is feels like an Apple pencil and works brilliantly, it connected with no problem although you can't have both connected at the same time. The main reason for purchasing this is that I teach online and sometimes I forget to charge the Apple pencil so I needed a backup but I didn't want to shell out for another Apple pencil. For the price, this is a great alternative and I highly recommend it.

Absolutely ok, i love it!
It works surprisingly well. It’s not an Apple Pencil, but for basic tasks it’s impressively good — I’ve grown to like it. The price-to-performance ratio is fantastic.

I’m giving it 5 stars because the pencil works perfectly with my iPad. The connection was quick, it responds very well when writing or drawing, and the precision is excellent. The battery life is also very good, so it can be used for quite a long time without any issues. But what I would especially like to highlight is the customer service from Metapen, which was truly excellent. They were very attentive, responded quickly to my questions, and made sure everything was working properly. It’s really appreciated when a brand stands behind its product with such efficient customer support. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase and I would definitely recommend it.

I’m really impressed with this iPad pen. Even though it’s not an Apple Pencil, it works amazingly well and does everything I need it to do for work. It’s very responsive and smooth to use, whether I’m writing, navigating, or working on different tasks on my iPad. I also like that it comes with different tips, which is really convenient and makes it easy to switch them out when needed. The battery life is another big plus. It lasts a long time between charges, so I’m not constantly worrying about it dying while I’m using it. Overall, it’s a great alternative if you want a reliable iPad pen without paying the higher price for the Apple one.

I loved the pen performance and quality so when my child lost his , which is very normal for him, I ordered the exact same one. The pen connects straight out of the box once turned on with the 2 taps . Also is chargeable and so affordable. Can’t justify buying the Apple one

I bought his pen back in March for my IPad (10th gen) and kept it for quite some months. I did not really use it that much until two months, but when I did, it had some problems. Every time it would work discretely but also either make ---- lines or not write anything at all. Every time I had to go back to the part and write the text again. I did not do much about it for a while. Last month I contacted the Costumer Service via the WhatsApp number they have on their website. I explained the problems the pen had and they were quite friendly. They gave me the option to either 1) get a full refund or 2) get a new pen, because it seemed that the tip was defective. I chose the latter, as I needed the pen at that point. They asked me to send my info for the new order through Amazon, and then they shipped it! I did not have to send the defective one back or pay additional money for the new one. It arrived after a couple of days. I have been using it since then (about a month). It works perfectly! I have no problem that I previously had with the written lines, and the battery lasts quite some time. As you might read in the description, it shows different colours for how charged it is, but it also shows a red light when it is being charged and when it is completely charged it turns white. The charge does not take long (about 30 minutes for a full one, but you can leave it charging for 10 minutes to use it for a couple of hours). I have not seen a decrease in performance for the past month and also for the battery. The package is not really high quality (at least font and colours wise), and the plastic where the pen is on is also quite cheap, but other than these things, the pen feels and looks high quality. I also really like the fact that you can choose many different colours. I personally chose the purple one. The little cover for the USB-C charging port is quite useless for me as it's too bulky for my IPad cover.
