The Apple Pencil 2 is back to its lowest-ever price
The best Apple Pencil 2 deal is back with $50 off!
Need a new stylus? If you're a digital artist, chances are you'll love this deal on the second-generation Apple Pencil, now only $79 at Amazon down from $129. That's an impressive $50 saving and the cheapest we've ever seen our favourite iPad stylus listed for. Even with Amazon Prime Day 2024 just weeks away, we can't guarantee you'll find a better price than this, so you might want to be hasty.
This deal brings the price of the Apple Pencil 2 down to budget-friendly territory, making it the exact same price as the Apple Pencil USB-C. This stylus is often a dealbreaker for most artists, given the lack of pressure sensitivity. Notetaking however is totally fine. But the good news is that with this price cut, you won't have to settle for affordability anymore. Between these two choices, it's a no-brainer.
There's also the Apple Pencil Pro to consider, but only if you have one of the latest iPad Pro M4 models, or the iPad Air (6th generation) M2. Anything older than a 2022 iPad and you'll need the first or second-gen Apple Pencil. However, If you're not fussed about Apple tech then we have a guide to the best Apple Pencil Alternatives instead that might provide some better options.
The best Apple Pencil 2 deal is back!
Apple Pencil (2nd Gen)
Was: $129
Now: $79

Overview: We think the Apple Pencil 2 is the best of the bunch (excluding the new Pencil Pro, of course) with perfect precision, tilt, and pressure sensitivity to assist artists with their digital designs. If you only use your stylus for note-taking, that's fine too. But the second-gen Apple Pencil really shines when used for drawing and sketching.

Review consensus: We reviewed the Apple Pencil 2 back in 2021 and while it's certainly similar to its predecessor in terms of design, it has a few tricks up its sleeve with wireless magnetic charging and quick tap controls making it a vast improvement on the original.
