Apple Pencil: From Cyber Monday Leftover to Spotlight Deal

Why be Just Another Stylus When You Could be an Apple Pencil?

Once upon a time, some genius at Apple Inc. looked at an ordinary pencil and said, “You know what this thing could use? A $79.99 price tag, a pressure sensor, and magnetic charging. Oh, and throw in some iPad compatibility too”. And thus, the second-generation Apple Pencil was born! As part of today’s surprise Cyber Monday deals, this luxury scribbler has sunk to an all-time low price of $79.99, which is $49 off its original price.

A Stylus for the Unseen Masses

The second-gen Apple Pencil is part of a very exclusive club, only associating with the Ivy League of tablets: the latest iPad Air, iPad Mini, and iPad Pro models. Rumor has it, when it’s not busy assisting digital artists sketch onto high-resolution screens or helping students scribble notes during a mind-numbingly dull lecture, it’s happily charging itself by simply hugging the side of these tablets – a feature its socialite first-gen sibling lacked. As an added bonus, it’s fluent in tap gestures and hover-speak.

Hot Take:

So, you missed out on those “too good to be true” Black Friday deals and now Cyber Monday is threatening to do you the same way? Well, fret not, because Amazon and Walmart are quite literally begging you to give the second-gen Apple Pencil a new home. Remember, the key to truly appreciating this stylus is to forget that at its core, it’s just a really, really fancy pencil.
