Black Friday Apple Pencil deals 2021

Whether it’s the first- or second-generation model, the Apple Pencil is the best stylus you can get for any iPad. The only other one you should consider is the Logitech Crayon, and that’s because it’s much less expensive. From pressure sensitivity, class-leading palm rejection, and tight integration with iPadOS, the Apple Pencil outstrips any other iPad stylus on the market.

While the first-generation Apple Pencil doesn’t have the excellent magnetic storage and inductive charging of the more recent version (alas, it still needs to stick out of the Lightning port on an appropriately-equipped iPad to charge), it’s still a very capable stylus. But, unfortunately, it’s the only one that works with the iPad 2021. Conversely, Apple Pencil 2 can be stored magnetically on the side of its compatible iPads, which includes the iPad Air 4, 2021 iPad Pro, and the new iPad mini 6.

This Black Friday will be the best time to get your hands on one, and some sales are already beginning on both generations of Apple Pencil. Here are the best Black Friday Apple Pencil deals that you can find right now. And don’t forget to check out more Black Friday Apple deals while you’re at it!

Apple doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to update the Apple Pencil. In any case, if you want to use one, you’ll need one of the two versions currently on sale. And while there aren’t many deals live just yet; there are some discounts available on both the first and second-generation stylus.

Apple Pencil (1st Gen)

The first Apple Pencil on the market works with the latest iPad, plus older tablet models, including the first- and second-generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro, iPad Pro 10.5-inch, iPad Pro 9.7-inch, third-generation iPad Air, sixth-, seventh, and eighth-generation iPad, and fifth-generation iPad mini.

Apple Pencil (2nd Gen)

Besides the current fifth-generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro, third-generation 11-inch iPad Pro, fourth-generation iPad Air, and sixth-generation iPad mini, the newer of the two Apple Pencil models also works with the third- and fourth-generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and first- and second-generation 11-inch iPad Pro.
