The first-generation Apple Pencil is the best stylus to use with several iPad models, including the 9.7-inch iPad Pro, 10.5-inch iPad Pro, 12.9-inch iPad Pro (1st and 2nd Generation), 9.7-inch iPad (6th Generation), 10.5-inch iPad Air, and iPad mini (5th generation). Great for professional illustration and calligraphy, the Apple Pencil offers sensitivity for art and writing purposes that generally surpasses what we’ve seen from its more affordable competitors. Although we have encountered outlier deals around $60 for this pick, this current offer matches the typical deal price we see for the earlier-generation Apple stylus.
