Customer Ratings & Reviews

Pros Great handwriting ability Decent battery life Easy charging Cons Shape feels a little... Odd at first, but I got used to it over time Battery isn't quite where I'd like it to be (I can get a full day, but 2 days would be ideal since it uses the iPad's charger) Not all apps work with the palm rejection, but that's an app problem, not a hardware problem

Writing this review with the Logitech crayon actually. it does feel nice compared to the Apple Pencil (first generation). The feel of it in hand, and the grip is quite nice, which allows you to write more naturally. The Apple Pencil is nice and my first writing stylus for my iPad, but this Logitech Crayon does feel like a better product in some ways. Charging the Crayon’s battery is safer too if you don’t get that Apple external charger for the Pencil. This is a worthwhile alternative if you want a stylus that is cheaper to the Apple Pencil. I am not dismissing the Apple product, but saying if cost is an issue, and you want an enjoyable writing experience, then the Logitech Crayon is worth the investment.

Never had a regular apple pencil, but with that price tag I never will. This works as expected, and even thought I thought the design might be a little uncomfortable it actually fits in my hand perfectly and doesn't roll anywhere when laying on my desk. I also love that is charges using the same lightning style cable as my Iphone and otherwise is completely wireless.

Purchased for my daughter along with a new iPad and its great! it's actually better in some ways than the 1st gen. Apple Pencil that I use. It's easy to charge and the On/Off button is a nice feature, it's also flat so it feels nicer in the hand and it won't roll off of your desk. Battery life is excellent!

Bought this for $25.00 cheaper than the Apple Pencil. Works well with my iPad latest gen. Not iPad Pro. Does everything I need, so far so good, battery life not a problem(shorter between charges than Apple). If you don’ need pressure sensitive, get this pencil.

I love the grip on this pen. Its very fast at charging, works really well with procreate..the only thing that i dont like about it is it doesn thave the preasure sensitivity which was my bad, i didnt realize this. I do wish thr apple pencil however was as comfy as this one is.

I received my first tablet in Feb/March 2022, the 5th Gen iPad Pro - 12.9" and altjough I've used other apple produxts for decades I needed so.e advice on what proprietary accessories were necessary to have and which available options were compatible with the tablet and would meet my needs without too much compromise. Basically a family member generously tried to ourxhase the items through my wireless provider and they were seriously scammed through the store front. I won't bore tou with details but would like to tell peope about it so they don't have the same thing happen- but Best Buy Customer Service to the rescue. I had done some research and knew I wanted a stylus (I am using a $1 version now while reviewing on my phone) but was told that the iPad was dofferent and wouldn't work with any stylus like other products. After the disaster of the over priced, used item my mother purchased I knew I didn't want another stylus that had to be xharged separately from the tablet. Basically I wanted the option to charge the device using a USB port drawing off of the tablets battery or to charge separately if I needed / wanted and I fifured if ai had to pay more than $10 it should have a unique feature like a really small tip to use when adding small details to correct a photo or something; for whatever reason there is not anything Ive found aside from the expensive models with a tip muxh smaller than a #2 pencil eraser. This Logitech stylus met all the requirements I wanted and it cost less than the Apple version. It can also magnetically (?) attach to the hard case so it doesn't get lost or dropped. Two more things that seemed to be important to pope whove used these items before. I'm not speaking from experience w/part 1 but apparently these styluses / styli (?)needed ro be paired via ue toith to your device takingup time and making it difficult to share with someone nearby who may need to borrow it for a minute. Lastly, I am extremely happy with my devices and had no thoughts of returning them but when I initially set up my iPad I wasnt thinking and used my dollar store stylus to type over the plastic screen overlay and it worked flawlessly. I couldnt imagine it causing any damage if I did it again but read upon it to make sure there werent any weird magnets or code that would render my new ttablet inneffective and the only replies I received were that I must have been mistaken nd used the correct one (even though I hadn't bought it yet). So, I am clearly not an expert and am not advising anything to anyone about using a non-standard product. Hkwever if it were an "energency" and it was all you had, it might be okay to try it out if yiu have a screen protector on your device. I upgraded to the Best Buy glass screen protector and had them install it (best decision) and regardless, I love the recommended stylus and havent had any issues. I just make sure to xlean the screen often and when I do, I clean the stylus to extend the life of it as well.

I have been using this Logitech Crayon for several months now with my iPad. I use it for navigating the device, using Affinity Photo and even some games. I've found it to be very responsive and accurate. Once you set it up, all you ever have to do is turn it on and it's automatically connected with nothing else to do. Just be sure to keep Bluetooth on. I typically only have to charge it every two weeks. I have no idea how long it takes to actually charge up to 100%, but I usually just leave it plugged in for about an hour. If you have an iPad with a more recent version of iPad OS, this Crayon is compatible with Apple's Handwriting feature which turns your handwritten letters into typed text. Overall I highly recommend this Crayon as a less-expensive alternative to Apple's Pencil for the iPad.

Great for writing casual drawing. This is a much more interactive, better option for writing/drawing on the iPad than the cheap stylus you can buy on Amazon. I’ve been writing notes in the iPad since my iPad 2 days and wasted too much $ replacing so many of the stylus with the squishy tips that dies too soon…even with the ones where you can replace the squishy tips. This is a much better option for performance vs those squishy tips stylus, and will likely save you hassle from having to replace those stylus all the time and maybe even saving $ if you use them all the time for notes like me! Also, cheaper than Apple Pencil…which I felt was unnecessary for my use case of writing and casual drawing.

The Logitech Crayon does almost everything the Apple Pencil does (except for pressure sensitivity) for a much lower price, and has one huge advantage: it can work with every iPad that Apple currently sells seamlessly (i.e. you can use it on multiple tablets without having to pair).

I have been using the Pencil for over 10 montés and really like it, it very practical and helps me to take notes in the iPad, some times due the shape can be a but uncomfortable but nothing to be alarmed of.

Works well. It doesn't have the pressure sensitive features like the apple pencil, but that hasn't been an issue. Our son uses it for school and reports that it's comfortable and easy to hold. Great product for the price.

Excellent addition to the iPad lineup. Quite a bit cheaper than the Apple pencil and works just as well. Charges quickly and lasts a long time. I like that it doesn't roll away when you set it down and the orange highlights make sure it catches your eye.

Logitech continues to push the boundaries if you are not willing to pay the price for Apple. Intuitive, smooth, battery life quality. Works amazing for all the creatives and music production folks.

It’s worked great for me so far. I don’t need pressure sensitivity so this was a cheaper alternative. The shape makes it actually easier to hold than the Apple Pencil 2 and actually uses the exact same tip so precision isn’t an issue.

I use this digital pencil for signing PDF documents on my iPad, and my daughter uses it for drawing in the Procreate app. This device works very well; it is very accurate for writing or drawing down to fine detail; it connects easily to my iPad without any hiccups; and I have no complaints about battery life, you just have to remember to charge it occasionally. My only complaint is the oblong shape. This pencil gets uncomfortable to hold for long periods of time. It doesn't have any padding or grip, just cold textured metal that makes my fingertips go numb if I'm using it for extended periods of time. All in all this is a good device and I'm satisfied with my purchase.

Great sale price compared to an actual Apple Pencil. And I’m sure they do the exact same things. Still trying to find a good app for drawing and or coloring “adult drawing books” (not adult content) just a coloring book that is more difficult and meant for adults. Would recommend as a set with iPad and keyboard case.

Good alternative to the Apple Pencil at half the cost…better feel to the product than the pencil. Works with varied generations of iPads not just the newest ones.

It's not the Apple Pencil, but for $60 less than the Apple brand, it's pretty good. The best part is that it works with both my 4th generation iPad Pro 12.9 (2020) and my iPad mini 5th gen (2019), and the Apple Pencil doesn't have that ability, since the first gen works with the iPad mini only, and the second gen works with the pro only.

Connects quickly and easy to use. The flat design to prevent rolling and the ability to charge with the lightning cable are both nice features.
