r/ipad on Reddit: Can someone explain what the Apple pencil 1 does in comparison to others?
December 27, 2024 -
My brother’s christmas gift was an Apple Pencil 1. I have a regular amazon one that works really fine for notes (that’s what I use it for). But now I wonder what makes it special compared to the amazon one. I have a 10th iPad.
PS: How do I turn it off? Do I have to have the bluetooth always on?

As you have an iPad 10, there are 4 possible Pencil alternatives that work with your iPad: Apple Pencil 1 Apple Pencil with USB-C Logitech Crayon Various third-party options Of these, only the Apple Pencil 1 has pressure sensitivity which can be very useful for artists. I understand that it goes to sleep if you leave it alone, and can’t be turned “off”
