The handy Apple Pencil 2 is down to its lowest-ever price of $89 on Amazon. That’s a sweet $40 discount off its $129 MSRP.

The Apple Pencil 2 will perfectly complement your new M2 iPad Pro or M1 iPad Air.

Apple Pencil 2 is a handy iPad accessory

Unlike the first-generation Apple Pencil that charged over the Lightning port, the new model charges wirelessly. It attaches magnetically to your iPads and starts charging automatically, making it much more convenient to carry around.

iPadOS 16 further improves the experience of using Apple Pencil 2. You can Scribble with the accessory while using Dictation on your iPad. The Notes app has also gotten better at recognizing handwritten notes by making words straighter and neater. On the M2 iPad Pro, you can hover the Apple Pencil up to 12mm above the display to interact with the on-screen content. Apple says this will help while sketching and illustrating content by providing better precision.

Apple Pencil is a must-have accessory if you want to let your creativity flow while using an iPad. It will also allow you to take better advantage of Apple’s upcoming collaboration app, Freeform.

Save 31% on the Apple Pencil 2

Apple Pencil 2 is compatible with the iPad Pro (first-, second-, third-, and fourth-generation), 12.9-inch iPad Pro (third-, fourth-, and fifth-generation), iPad mini 6, and the new iPad Air (fourth and fifth-generation).

You rarely get to see a discount on the Apple Pencil 2. The latest deal from Amazon is also unlikely to last for a long time. So, if you have been waiting to buy the Apple Pencil 2, this is the deal you need to take advantage of. Once you get your Apple Pencil, change these two settings for a better experience.
