Designs NimbleSleeve Premium Silicone Case Holder Protective Cover Sleeve Compatible with iPad Apple Pencil Pro and 2nd Generation Only (Pink)

Will buy again, great quailty, makes using apple pen enjoyable and good grip

The media could not be loaded. the pencil sleeve was a little difficult to put on, but you just have to be careful and gentle, you want to push the pencil into the sleeve gradually, rather than aggressively pull the silicone over it. I think you’d have to be quite careless and impatient to manage to break it!the colour is nice and it looks good, I like the cut out for the Apple pencil logo. the sleeve definitely makes the pencil more comfortable to use.At first, I had some trouble getting the pencil to charge with the sleeve on and a case on my iPad. I found the best way was to let the pencil connect to the iPad from the front first, and then to push it up into the pencil hole of my case (see video). So the sleeve is compatible with my iPad case, but it may not be with others. it does stretch my case a little though, so something to be mindful of.the sleeve is definitely compatible for wireless charging without a case, I tested it and had no trouble at all getting it to charge with the case off.the sleeve also doesn’t impede the double tap function of the pencil.overall I would recommend, it’s expensive for what it is, but it’s the nicest design I could find and it’s very comfortable to use. I wish it was more affordable though.

I’ve been using an Uppercase sleeve on my Apple Pencil 2 for a couple of months and have been pleased with the results so far. It has a stylish faceted design along the length that also prevents your pencil rolling about, with a wider flat edge for the charging surface. The opening at the top is where you start sliding the pencil in, the cut out is slightly larger to help the process, and can be a nice for showing off an engraved Apple Pencil (although if the engraving is too long it may get covered up). I’ve had no trouble putting them on or taking them off, just be slow and gentle and it shouldn’t rip on you.A note on charging:- The pencil sleeve does allow your Apple Pencil to charge on the side of the iPad when it is on, but given only if your iPad case doesn’t cover the sides of the iPad. Even TPU/silicone cases that thin out the charging side but still leave it covered will stop your pencil charging, since the distance is too wide for a proper connection when you add the thickness of the sleeve on top. However, hard shell cases and the Apple folio cases are compatible.- However, it should be noted that even if the Pencil won’t charge with the sleeve on, if it’s already connected to your iPad it will still work on the screen itself.Pros:- It offers a much more comfortable grip and also acts as a protection against scratches and small drops for my apple pencil.- One of the few Apple pencil sleeves on the market that covers/cinches in on both ends of the Apple pencil. The benefit of this is that as you’re using the pencil the sleeve doesn’t slide up or down the pencil and leave you having to constantly readjust it.- Material feels nice and premium.Cons:- Stretches out lengthwise after a while. You can see in the pictures that I’ve had to cut my older pink case so that it’s not totally hanging low, I did try to shrink the case again by putting it in some hot water but that did no difference at all to the pencil sleeve. Before it was longer than the mint one by maybe just 5 mm or so, but that meant that it was covering the base of the pencil tip and there was an obvious gap when you looked at the pencil head on. If this doesn’t bother you then it shouldn’t be too big a deal. Also, luckily the sleeve only become longer, not looser over time.- There is a little bit of flashing of excess material on 2 edges from the moulding process, but it’s really minimal (compared to pictures of cheaper sleeves I’ve seen online), and after a few months of use I’ve found they’ve completely rubbed away.- Colour accuracy: the pink sleeve is pretty true to colour from the images provided. But I would say that the mint sleeve is real life is a lot more saturated and bluish in colour, definitely not as pastel as I’d prefer.Despite the cons, I would say it’s still one of the better sleeves on the market. I would recommend it, provided you’re careful with putting it on.

i’ve bought this about 5x now just because i do use my apple pencil a lot, and the sleeve would usually tear after 2-3 months as the material is quite easy to break. ever since switching to the apple magic keyboard, my pencil sleeve hasn’t broken, i probably shouldn’t have forced all my previous apple pencils, with the sleeve on, into ipad cases since most don’t accommodate for the sleeve. but so far, so good! plus, the colours are so cute, and it’s wireless compatible too!

The pencil itself doesn’t charge whilst the case is on which isn’t stated in the description when buying. It is really annoying to get on and takes a lot force as it sticks to the pen and doesn’t slide along. I had to cut the case off to get it off so I could charge my pencil. Not impressed.

Excellent. Fits my Apple Pencil Pro nicely. Had no issues with fitting it over the pencil. Grip is good when writing and drawing.

Good

Great to use
