Apple Pencils have a notoriously steep price tag. Instead of paying over $100, you might want to check out the Digi Pen stylus designed for iPads and other tablets. For a limited time, you can get one for just $39.99, down from its normal price of $99.95.

The Digi Pen is equipped with a fine 1.2mm tip for precise writing or drawing, and designed to prevent lagging or skipping. This stylus also recognizes changes of angle and pressure. Palm rejection technology allows you to write on your iPad just as if you were writing on paper. Unlike some other styluses, your iPad will only pick up the strokes of the pen, not the touch of your hand resting on the screen.

How does the Degi Pen compare to the Apple Pencil?

Just like any Apple “dupe,” the Digi Pen isn’t as seamless as the name-brand Apple Pencil. But it does support the same wireless charging, where you can attach the stylus to the side of your compatible iPad. With a one-hour charge, you can use the stylus for up to 20 hours. The Digi Pen also has some features you won’t find on the Apple Pencil, like indicator lights to display battery life and an on/off switch to save battery when you’re not using it.

Bottom line, if you want a solid iPad stylus without paying for Apple Pencil, the Digi Pen for iPad and Tablets is a good way to go, and right now it’s $39.99 (reg. $99.95), though prices may change at any time.
