Apple’s USB-C Pencil Hits Record Low Price Ahead of October Prime Day
As anticipation builds for October Prime Day, tech enthusiasts are already seeing significant price drops on popular gadgets. Among these, Apple’s USB-C Pencil has reached a new low price of $69, marking a $10 discount from its original cost.
The USB-C Apple Pencil, initially introduced as the company’s most affordable stylus option, is now even more accessible to budget-conscious consumers. This price reduction comes at a time when Apple has been working to simplify its stylus lineup, addressing confusion over compatibility with various iPad models.
The discounted stylus is compatible with a wide range of iPad models, including the latest iPad Pro 13-inch (M4), iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation and later), all iPad Pro 11-inch models, iPad Air 13-inch (M2), iPad Air 11-inch (M2), iPad Air (4th generation and later), iPad (10th generation), and iPad mini (6th generation).
While the USB-C Apple Pencil offers convenient charging via a USB-C cable, it lacks some of the advanced features found in its more expensive counterparts. Users won’t find magnetic charging support, pressure sensitivity, or the double-tap feature available in the Apple Pencil Pro and second-generation Apple Pencil.
Nevertheless, the USB-C Apple Pencil still boasts pixel-perfect accuracy, low latency, and tilt sensitivity. It can also be attached to iPads with magnetic holders for easy storage and access.
As October Prime Day approaches, consumers are advised to keep an eye out for more tech deals. For the latest updates on discounts and buying advice, tech enthusiasts can follow @EngadgetDeals on Twitter.
