Classic Pencil Case

Great case for your ipad pencil. The case is very well made and I love the classic pencil looks. It helps with finger soreness as well. As the pencil is thin and made of hard plastic, using it for a long period of time hurting my fingers. The soft silicone case helps solving that problem. I also have no issue charging my pencil with the case on. I have an issue and the seller got back to me quickly. Definitely will buy from them again. TIP: if you have trouble magnetically charging the pencil, just use a different side of the case to cover the pencil's side that has magnetic. Sometimes the pencil with the case doesn't charge because it doesn't sit flush enough.

Aesthetics: Beautiful design! The wooden pencil look really reminds me of childhood and makes working on art or writing a fun nostalgic experience. Personally, it puts me in a good mood to start my creative sessions off. I got the traditional yellow version but I would love to try other colors in the future to match my setup. I love the style and thick chonkyness. Installing/Removing: I saw that some people had issues with installing or removing this sleeve. However, if you do it properly, it only takes 15 seconds more or less. I think most reviewers who are struggling with this and giving it bad ratings are simply just not doing it properly. You do not need to rush or use much force to install or remove it. I will include a video with my review showing how easy it is. If you use a case for your iPad, you will probably have to either remove the sleeve in order to charge your pencil, or remove your iPad from its case to give your pencil a flat surface to charge on. The sleeve’s added thickness makes it much thicker so that it will no longer fit in regular Apple Pencil case slots. For me, it’s not a big deal, I just remove the pencil’s sleeve and set it to charge after each drawing/writing session. It does mean that if you plan to permanently keep the sleeve on, you will no longer be able to magnetically store it attached to your iPad. You will need a safe place to carry your pencil, or remove the sleeve, and carry that separately. Personally, I have a laptop sleeve with a pocket where I carry everything together so it’s fine for me. Practical Use: The silicone is very soft. If you’re an artist or a writer, you will appreciate the silicone. However, the straight line edges that give this sleeve the whole wooden pencil design can be a positive or a negative. If you hold your pen lightly or purposely use the straight sides as a guide to tell your fingers where to hold, you will love this sleeve. But, on the other side, if you are someone that holds your pen tightly or wraps your thumb around the pen, then this sleeve’s harsh edges will be pretty uncomfortable after a while. For context, I am using this sleeve with an Apple Pencil Pro 2024. The “squeeze” feature still works perfectly fine in all of my drawing apps. However, the double tap is a little awkward. My fingers are a bit thick so sometimes I “miss” the cutout for the double tap or don’t hit it directly and that can get annoying. I recently started using an 8bitdo Micro for all of my shortcuts, though. So I’ve stopped using the doubletap anyway. If you are someone that relies heavily on the double tap and you have thicker fingers, you might struggle to hit that little cutout. I think that with practice, you’ll get the hang of it, though. Conclusion: This sleeve is beautiful and makes the experience of drawing or writing fun and nostalgic. You WILL probably need to remove the sleeve OR your iPad case to charge your pencil. You will either love or hate the harsh straight lines of the design. That is something you have to have in mind before purchasing.

I have used this for a month now, and I love it! I was expecting it to be difficult to put onto my Apple Pencil, but it took less than 30 seconds and was an easy task. The shape of the inside makes it clear how to insert the pencil, which certainly helped. I was concerned it would not be able to connect to the magnetic charger on the iPad, but I have not had a problem with it. 5-month update: the silicone is somewhat looser than it was at the beginning, which has led to two issues: (1) the pencil can turn inside the silicone, which (admittedly only once so far) has led to the pencil not charging correctly. Once I took the pencil out and reinserted it correctly, it charged properly again. (2) It now slides when I write with it. Every few words, I have to fix the sleeve (demonstrated in the video). Ultimately, I loved it, but I don’t think I’ll be able to continue using it much longer.

Product is good quality and easy to slide on and off. I want to clarify that on Apple Pencil 2, it WILL charge with this sleeve ON. I have a iPad Pro 12.9 5th Gen and iPad Mini 6. However, the caveat is this sleeve is thick, I like that for being able to hold the pencil better, but it really reduces how strong the magnetic is. I get the Apple Pencil to charge with the case on I have to apply a little downward pressure initially and then it will charge. For me, it's simply easier to remove the sleeve and charge the Apple Pencil naked. Also want to mention that I still love this sleeve, you cannot use most cases built in Apple Pencil holders. And if your iPad has a case on it, it probably won't charge wirelessly. My iPad pro uses the magic keyboard case so it's nothing additional around the edges. On my iPad mini with case, I do need to remove the sleeve to put it in the Apple Pencil slot on the iPad mini 6 case to charge. Hope this helps

Dang! Yet another super cool looking product that I had high hopes for only to be disappointed. First of all getting this thing on your Apple Pencil is a battle. Don’t believe the video it’s NOT that easy but after wrestling this thing for 20 minutes and finally getting it snugly on, my biggest disappointment was to learn my pencil no longer connects to my iPad. It snaps magnetically into place as it should but not enough to pair it. Unless of course you remove the case which after 20 minutes of fighting this thing, it’s never coming off again lol! For me also I like the extra grip feel but The silicon feel to me gets weird after awhile. (Even though I couldn’t use the pencil I have a habit of holding it while I work ) But that just personal preference. For those who have no issues with pairing that’s great but just because there are those of us who do doesn’t mean we should just get over it lol! I mean kind of pointless if we cant actually use the pencil! I ended up just cutting it in thirds and using the bottom third on my pencil. It still doesn’t charge but the grip is somewhat nice, and it’s easier to take on and off.

I got the Elate classic pencil case for my son who is a rising college freshmen. It's cute, nice selection of colors and has a good grip. We got him a iPad Air 6 with Apple pencil pro to take notes in college. This beats to carry paper note books around college and having to buy more. So, here it goes...the Apple pencil pro is the same size as the Apple pencil gen 2, but I still STRUGGLED to put it on the apple pencil pro. The video on the products is not a good representation of putting this pencil case on a Apple pencil pro. So i finally got it on... My son has the thin ESR cover for iPad air 6 (2024) holder his iPad Air 6th. It's a slim trifold case. The Apple Pencil was able to attach and charge with the pencil case on the cover, but because of the thickness the pencil case gave the apple pencil pro, I could not folder over with the Apple Pencil in it. The whole point was to keep the apple pencil security while its traveling their backpacks, so your student does not lose it. With this apple pencil case, you will not be able to keep the pencil with the ipad while charging. Think of it this way, will your student remember to charge it overnight before attending class??? If not, this is not a good product/options for your child/student. I want to return this item but it's sooo hard to take it off of his apple pencil pro without destroying it. I should have read reviews of the "fit" situtation a lot carful. I hope this helps others looking at this product.

I have a BOOX Tab Ultra C Pro and it comes with a pen. Obviously being a non apple product and not super popular product in general, there aren't a lot of customization opportunities, including cases, as you can see. I wanted something pink, would still magnetize to the tablet (thin), and something would still let me erase because I erase from the bottom of the pen, not by clicking a button. I looked up the dimensions of the Apple Pencil Pro and measured my BOOX pen. The BOOX pen came out to be slightly larger but I figured with a silicone cover, it might just stretch and work, so I bought this Elargo case. Initially I tried to slide it on like normal and it took me about an hour with a lot of hand hurting to get it about a centimeter from the top but then I couldn't get it any further. I couldn't get it off traditionally either, I had to peel it over itself and then kind of slide with again, a lot of hand hurting lol. Then I tried to stick the bottom end through the side button slit and slide it down that way. It worked okay but I again, couldn't get it all the way down. The BOOX pen is just slightly thicker than the Apple Pencil Pro. Finally, I just used a tiny dab of water based lube and it slid in just fine. The BOOX pen doesn't have buttons on it so that opening is just open to nothing and it has a bit of buckling as you can see in the video and the pictures. That doesn't bother me, and actualy gives me the chance to use it as an anchor while writing. With the stretch though, there is shadowing showing the pen's true color a bit through the silicone, which wouldn't be an issue for the Apple Pencil. The eraser part is a little bulgy too, but it also doesn't bother me and it erases just fine. This BOOX tablet specifically has a very delicate screen (hence the frustration on only having 3 color options for cases, none of which are super protective) so when I erase with the super hard plastic bottom, I get worried I'll break the screen since I do have to press down pretty hard. With the silicone eraser cover, I don't worry about that at all!!! Overall, for this not being intended for my product, it's super comfortable, fits as well as I could have expected, and even lets the magnetic side snap back onto the tablet without any worry of it falling off. The only thing I'd caution to other BOOX TUC PRO tablet users with the Bozhuorui case, when you close it, the little pen holder flap on the side doesn't snugly magnetize back to the case. It doesn't bother me because I never carry this around freely and in the open, I'm either holding it stationary at a desk or its in my triple layered protection in my backpack! I do recommend it, and I'd buy it again because it's such a good value considering it's not made for my product.

now why would i, a whole person, read the instructions for this, a mere piece of silicon? -- is what i thought, and i was wrong. so right out of the box, i put the pencil in this sleeve with the flat side facing the opening. this was incorrect. the pencil still worked fine, and taps were ok i guess, but even tho it would adhere magnetically, it would not charge against the side of the ipad. i was bummed, emailed elago and even sent them a grumpy note when they asked to see a picture of the problem. but when i came here to torch this thing in a review, i noticed someone's review said support sorted out their problem, and so i grit my teeth and took the 2 or so seconds to read the incredibly simple instructions here on the product page. i then inserted the pencil into its sleeve with the flat side facing the word MAGNETIC like it says to do, and now the pencil charges fine. i'm mostly using a little aoiktye keyboard for tool switching (because even with a bare pencil, the taps often caused me to lose a good hand position) so i can't say if this has a negative effect on tap sensitivity. but in the meantime, the sleeve does wonders for my hand fatigue when drawing, so yeah.
