#ipadpro2020 #zaggprostylus
I purchased the Apple Pencil along with this one yesterday. I actually brought the Apple Pencil back because I loved the functionality of this one. The rubber stylus on the other side made the difference. You don’t have to use your finger to swipe and go home. You can actually keep the stylus in your hand and never use your finger. Apple Pencil don’t allow that convenience
Erase feature comes in very handy, but just got the switcheasy pencil you recommended just for note taking. Loving it so far.
Great video!
How do you set up the back end of this pencil as an Eraser? I can't seem to connect it that way
Are there sleeves for the Switcheasy pencil??
How to set up eraser mode
I bought this stylus after viewing your review. You did great work, and Zagg should have paid you A BAG. Glad to see your channel’s back in business, too, bruv…
I watch many tech videos on RUclips and I find yours to be the most useful. Others spend so much time on background music, video production and the content itself is not useful. I have made a couple of purchases after watching your videos which I never did after watching videos from other popular tech RUclipsrs. And I’m also happy with those purchases. Thanks a lot for videos.
I saw this stocked at my local Apple authorized retailer and it's really interesting, so I looked for reviews. Thanks for the very thorough video. I don't want to give more money to Apple than necessary, and at half the price of the Apple Pencil, I can probably try to work around not having pressure sensitivity and wireless charging.
No wireless charging kills it for me. Need a black Apple Pencil.
By the way. If you tilt the zagg side ways while writing. It will bold your writing. That’s the work around for not having pressure sensitivity.
You had me at “the broad tip doubled as an eraser in procreate.” Buying it now! Thank you so much for the info.
Dope video. Bought this just now. ZaGG is having a 40% off entire store online for Black Friday.
That eraser feature it’s what’s missing in the Apple Pencil. Really wish they would add that! I would buy this just for that feature alone.
If you have a first gen apple pencil, you can get a replacement cap with a rubber stylus tip on it, so it would essentially work similarly to this.
The double tap to switch to eraser on 2nd gen Apple Pencil is so much faster than flipping this stylus around. Believe me, I have one. It seems that some people are unaware of the feature.
Not only thing it needs
@@jaydendickson it feels more traditional to flip the pencil lol
agree, having to tap it twice all the time is annoying, as I am more used to just instinctively turn it around.
I think this one is my fav so far. Think I may have to buy this.
It’s worth it. Also, Zagg is great with warranty handling. The only downside is finding replacement tips without having to file a warranty claim.
@@cdrchrrs this is the reason why it isnt worth it. Shipping your stylus to them and back costs as much as half a new stylus. And each time you ship the stylus you can’t work. I’m very disappointed in this product since I was stupid enough to buy it💔
I have an iPad Pro 12.9, got my stylus from Zagg this week, found discount codes, and was pleasantly surprised that the stylus end, not the tip, works really well on the Z Fold2 phone! I'm glad you mentioned to disconnect your apple pencil. Spent an hour trying to figure out why it wasn't working with my iPad.
Is it the first Gen? That's the one I have....
I already disconnected my apple pencil- but I cannot seem to get it to work. I'm glad yours is working though!
This is exactly the video I was looking for! Thanks for keeping it short, while highly informative and fun to watch!
Very nice stylus and would work for me most of the time, good price--BUT I have the Pencil 1 (bought for original Ipad Pro 12.9) that I use with my Mini--and it drives me crazy because I have to charge it relatively often (I don't charge through the port). One of the things I love about my Pencil 2 is that it is always charged--I never have to stop and charge it (I do use the Pencil quite a bit). I do really like the eraser end although you can choose to use double tap to switch between writing and erase on Pencil 2.
Awesome alternative ! I’m glad that Best buy sells
no offense but please don’t look down on pressure sensitivity like that! many students rely on it for: drawing, note taking, calligraphy and more! if u can find a pencil that has it that would be amazing!
heyy!! this might be late but the adonit note plus does come with pressure sensitivity, but it only works for spesific apps which they listed on their website
almost all pencils other then the Apple Pencil itself don’t have pressure sensitivity because at that point I’d just be dumb for apple to allow 3rd party integration to that extent… the closest ur getting is Logitech crayon
@@hans2400 and other 20 dollar knockoff that has tilt function..
@@LoreLibrary-Official not good enough
@@rileygshep7606 did u triy it…its super good if u r not an artist..i got one and its like sn apple pencil without pressure..i know cuz i also got an apple pencil..if u just taking note dont buy apple pencil or logitech crayon..
Brilliant video! I've watched several on apple pencil alts and yours are by far the best. Only thing I'd request (as your opinion on this is a weighty one) for your subscribers, is to comment on what you'd recommend out of Zagg, switcheasy, TiMOVO and RaserBasilisk, among any others you have reviewed. Would love your top recommendation please. Thanks! (Ps yep....you deserve more subs...you have one more from the UK in me :)
Zagg >> Switcheasy >> TiMOVO. I’m not familiar with RaserBasilisk.
I own the Zagg model (using it right now) and a JamJake model. I had to return the Switcheasy due to problems finding replacement tips and bad customer service.
Love the video man very helpful and I was actually looking for a cheaper alternative of a Apple Pencil and this is perfect 🤩
just bought one from amazon excited to try
Man! You should deserve more subs
Thx so much
Very good video I’ll look into that!
Nice review! Preciate it, man!
As always you answer the questions most people have. I didn't hear you mention the price but easy to click on the link and get it. If you do find any apps that are problematic please update.
he didn't clearly say it has pressure sensitivity or not... that part was confusing to me
@@lamiafarjana1990 it doesn’t have pressure sensibility but when you tilt the pen it simulates 2 pressure levels
Thanks,this is the one im gonna buy
Amazing pencil for Procreate! I’ve been using it for a few days. Highly recommended :)
So is it worth it to buy.? I’m starting out with digital drawing
How do you set up the back end of this pencil as an Eraser? I can't seem to connect it that way
Do you recommend it for goodnotes 5?
You didn’t have issues with pressure!?
Because of you I went and bought it I hope it is convenient for me .
Great recommendation! Love it!
I’m deffo ordering this tomorrow.
Hey idk if you bought it yet but if so how do you like it? Is it worth it ?
@@kokok9821 not worth it. I purchased it and I’m very disappointed
I like this one. Thanks!
Gracias ! Lo compararé
The tap works with the broad tip to wake
My zagg have issue, doesn’t charge since full empty battery also hard to find tips DTTO 4 also fit this pencil
Does the “eraser” feature work in other applications (ie Notes) ?
Probably not because procreate has a specific feature where you can use your “finger” to erase and in this case you can just use the other side of this pencil to erase. As far as I know, no other application has this feature
Right this is only for Procreate. It mimmicks the finger so it erases
The erasing function and the tilt is what makes this pencil better than the rest, as I come from drawing tablets and before paper drawing, sadly it does work only with procreate, at least of the ones I have try.
I work with fresco, because you know is better for professional work and the ability to switch around other adobe products because of the cloud, and I am not sure about the half price vs 2 and a half pressure points from the apple pen (not like the 2 and a half pressure points from the apple pen can compete with drawing pads and tablets, but you know they are expensive.
If they would make the erasing function work in fresco I would prefer the zagg over an apple pen, but at the moment I have my kid use it and I use the apple pen.
Amazing video!! new suscriber from Méxicooo thanks buddy you saved me!!
Wow! I totes have to get this!
You had me at the eraser feature :)
Im sorry if this is random or silly but the whole video your I pad camera or light was like flashing over and over why is that?
This pen is not even pressure sensitive like the Apple pen which works great on Procreate. This not considered an artist pen when you use Procreate.
If you're artist, it's kinda silly if you don't buy Apple Pencil tbh. This is perfectly decent for most average users really ...
Does this work with the iPad Air 4?
Yep
I have a question. Can it work with samsung tablets that have spens?
anyone knows what to do after you've used up the nibs? They dont sell replaceable tips
No pressure sensitivity. This won’t work with Staffpad app
Aaaah, the emails!
dope, does this work for tablets and touchscreen overall or specific for Ipads that support the apple pencil
Specific to iPad
@@sophiaromero5903 yes
Yes
Which do you think is a better alternative, this one or the SwtichEasy Easy Pencil that you reviewed back in April?
can you write with your hand resting in the screen?
The eraser feature for pro create is quite working on my pencil any tips or reasons why this is?
My keeps disconnecting.
which one would you prefer, switch easy pencil plus or zagg pro stylus?
The ZAGG model. No competition. I’m using it now.
Dyou hv any stylus suggestions for iphone? Plsss
Will this work on your iPhone?
The back part will
Hi, does this work on the 5th generation??
The tip looks finer than apple pencil, is that really so? Can you feel the difference in accuracy and particularly in the ability to write small letters?
Tip size is about the same. Writing is just as fluid and accurate even whe writing small
@@TheAverageTechGuy TNX for the quick answer man
I bpught two different pens you recommended one in may one in june( first one arrived missing the special charge cable) both have stopped working in only 6 months so I'll just buy tge apple at least it last several years
Dang 💀💀💀
Hi from Honduras bro, will this work with the iPad 8th generation?
just got this but flipping for eraser not working for me. i must be missing something
Does it work well with glass screen protectors?
My zagg isn’t working I’m not sure what’s wrong I put it on the charger it keeps turning off red I’m not sure how am I supposed to check if it’s on or not
I just bought it and I really love it
I don’t know how, but My zagg made scratches on my screen, and the only one solution was to use glass
I have that same stylus but I don't know if it is working. Any idea why it isn't working?
this one can double tap eraser ??
Sorry no
Ok I might be late but I just got one of these pens and the tip just won’t work. I’ve tried everything I was told but it just isn’t working. Do you know how to do this?
The eraser feature is not working for me even know im using procreate. Do i need to press the erase tab first?
uhm, how do I erase with the soft end? Mine just scrolls and move things around
You have to be using procreate and have the settings on erase with finger.
Just....maybe next time can test it with the app Zen Brush, so we will know it if its with pressure sensitivity o without
How do you get the eraser back to work? Got the app and it only recognizes the back end part as a finger
That’s how i used it as finger
where to purchase the tip for this pencil? i searched on shopee but all it came out is apple pencil tip so i’m not so sure if i can use apple pencil’s tip for this stylus pro pencil
Compare this with Adonit Note+ !!!
I have just got one of these but only the broad tip works, do you have any suggestions on how to try and fix it?
Hi do you know how you replacement the tip of this stylus? Planning to buy but i cant find replacement tips! Thank you!
Okay so anyone that orders the pencil where can you find tip replacements because both the tips are wearing out
Can I use this on iPad mini five because I’m upgrading iPads but I don’t know if my new iPad will come or not but I wanna pencil that right and also magnetically sticks to the iPad Pro because I am actually getting a new iPad mini six and it will come after a few months and I wanna styles that I can use right now that when I get my new iPad I get the added feature to stick it on the iPad
Really cool stylus
I love it
@@TheAverageTechGuy Thanks to your review I think I will get this stylus over the normal apple pencil for my school work when I get a new iPad
Enjoyed this video ❤️❤️ but Does any one know how to set up the eraser for this pen? Please help me out lol
It only works like that in procreate
@@TheAverageTechGuy i have procrear 😭😭
*procreate
I second to this 🙌 how do you do it?
I purchased this and I can’t seem to get the eraser feature to work on procreate
Does this work with a samsung tablet not the new one the old sameund tablet
This looks neat! Is buying replacement nibs easy? I couldn't find extras on the site.
Not to sure, but it comes with an extra one
@@TheAverageTechGuy thanks! Bought it anyway to try it out. Love how enthusiastic you are in your reviews! Subbed. :)
Yeah I’m wondering where to buy the tip. Til now up to date, can’t seem to find one. Only for the top one (use for erasing).
Can someone help me! I have an IPad Pro (2018) but it isn’t working? The blue ring appears and then goes away again. I charged the stylus and watched so many tutorials but it’s supposed to auto connect? I thought the stylus was defect so I contacted the company and got a new one but same issue:(
Hello, do you happen to know if I can use apple pencil tip for zagg pro stylus?
Does keeping apple pencil always attached to the ipad sucks battery faster and degrades ipad's battery as well as pencil life?
No, not at all
@@TheAverageTechGuy thanks alot
How do you set up the back end of this pencil as an Eraser? When I try to erase, it draws like the regular tip...
This only works in Procreate. You can set it to finger erase and the back acts as an eraser
@@TheAverageTechGuy how do you do that though? I cant seem to find it anywhere in procreate settings : (
Is there any place I could get the replacement of the tip? It broke off 😢
Replacement tip is inside the box.
Does it work with the iPad 5th generation???
Mine won’t work no matter what I do, anyone have any tips on what to do? I thought it was a pairing issue, because it turns on and is at green charge, but my ipad has no reaction to it. Has it paired to another family members ipad maybe?
Does this work with ipad pro 10.5 inch (2017) ?
Yes it will
@@TheAverageTechGuy thank you sir 😊
Hi, i recently purchased this pro stylus to use on my Ipad Air (2020) but cant get the scribble to work..... any ideas??
Hello, can you use this on sidecar mode?
Can you charge this with a Mophie charger
The eraser does not work in the apps I use.
Does it stick on the iPad 8th generation?
Does this work with an iphone? For exa,Poe the iPhone 11
Is this compatible with iPad Air 2?

How it works on the app goodnotes?

So does the tilt tecognition work in skribble
Hi is this compatible on iPad AIr 4th gen? ah yeah You did say any iPad for gen 1 or 2 pencil nvm thanks
