Well, it’s $399, which is very different price point than an iPad Pro with Apple pencil.
They detail some other advantages, like the texture of the surface, though we can’t evaluate that without getting one in hand.
It’s a much more focused device, which is a pro and a con.
Personally, I’ll stick with my iPad Pro, but I hope this is actually good and successful.
- JKCalhoun 6y agoI put a textured surface on my iPad Pro to great effect. It's one of those stick-on "screen protector" affairs. I find it much nicer if you predominantly use the Apple pencil (Procreate, etc.). I haven't yet tried it with the new handwriting recognition in iOS.
- _blop 6y agoI frequently hear that screen protectors which mimic paper surface lead to a much faster abrasion of the tip of the Apple pencil. Is this the same in your case?
- tito 6y agoI also added a screen cover to my iPad to get texture with Pencil. I haven't seen fast abrasion with this cover. Pencil tips seem to last a really long time. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00G4SA1FG/ref=ppx_yo_mob_b_inactive_ship_o0_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00G4SA1FG/ref=ppx_yo_mob_b_i...
- pbhjpbhj 6y agoJust to add some figures from UK: With the pen that has an eraser, and the flip cover, is £479. Normal price ~£600 (~$800) in UK. iPad Pro 11" with pencil comes to £890. Surface Pro 7 £870. But a Surface Go 2 with pen is £500 and chapter iPad options are around too.
