Sticking with a prev-gen. iPad? UGREEN’s Apple Pencil alternative with magnetic charging is $21.50 (New low)

28% off/$21.50

Over at Amazon you can currently find the official UGREEN storefront offering its 2nd Generation Pencil for iPad at $21.59 Prime shipped once the on-page 20% off coupon has been clipped. Don’t have Prime? You can still dodge shipping fees when checking out with $35 or more in your cart. Launched just one month ago for $30, today’s offer takes 28% off and ushers in the lowest price we’ve tracked to date. If you aren’t planning to upgrade to one of Apple’s all-new iPad Air or Pro tablets, this UGREEN Apple Pencil competitor is ready to rumble with the recent models that came before them. Believe it or not, it can be charged magnetically along the side of your iPad, just like some of Apple’s official Pencil offerings. Bear in mind that Apple moved some things around in the new M4 iPad Pro and M2 Air devices so this won’t magnetically attach or charge with those. You can find a full compatibility list in the bullets below. Other features in the latest iPad stylus from UGREEN include palm rejection, tilt sensitivity, and a USB-C port for charging which makes this a viable option for folks that don’t have one of the more recent iPad Pro or Air models. There is one feature you’ll forfeit with this offering and that’s pressure sensitivity, so do keep that in mind. Continue reading for more deals.

It’s comprised of aluminum and features a dual rod design for added stability. It’s very flexible too, with two separate hinges that can be individually adjusted up to 180 degrees.

And if you are still considering one of Apple’s latest iPads, you can grab the new 13-inch M2 Air with 256GB of storage now at $849 alongside more from $569. And don’t forget that you can still lock in clearance pricing on the M1 iPad Air over at Walmart. It’s still up for grabs at $399, which is a very respectable price for such a powerful and versatile device.
