x MONAMI Compatible with Apple Pencil Pro Case & Apple Pencil 2nd Generation Case, Compatible with Magnetic Charging, Double Tap, Squeeze (Must Read Installation Instructions) (Peony Pink)

I bought this on instinct and brand-trust for my new Apple Pencil 2 and iPad Mini 6. Elago has almost never let me down, and I have a gazillion Elago covers (AirPods Pro charging case, Apple TV Siri Remote), stands (M2, M5, P2), Watch charger stands (W3, W4), and even an early Elago multimedia player stand (see my AirPods Pro cover video review). I hadn't noticed that this comes with a Monami ballpoint pen, a unneeded accessory for me -- I have tons of pens. But the cover is excellent, in keeping with Elago's whimsical theme of styling their cases on retro or contemporary objects. The Apple Watch W3 (Mac Classic) and W4 (iMac) stands are examples. The cover protects the pencil entirely EXCEPT the tip so if you drop it tip first, no guarantees. I did notice that the cover seals the seam/gap between the Pencil's removable tip and body. The trick in putting it on is that you may have to set the rear of the Pencil against a soft surface (a silicon potholder or towel will do), and gently, slowly pull the cover on with two fingernails held against the protruding edges of the cover's tip end (not the tip itself). Do not put pressure on the Pencil tip, you could break it with sufficient force. Simply grasping the body of the cover and trying to slide it on the Pencil will only work half of the way. Once the cover is fully on, you can stretch/squeeze the it to even out. Another tip: CLEAN the Pencil prior to this, dry it. A little compressed air shot in the Elago cover wouldn't hurt, too. After putting the end cap on the butt-end of the pencil, you may be able to gently stretch the cover to meet the cap without pulling the cover up beyond the seam of the replaceable Pencil tip. With patience, you can fit both so that there's zero gap (no white of the Pencil exposed, except of course for the tip). The "magnetic" side of the cover, when put on the pencil properly (following the included instructions) is thinner than the rest of the cover, so the Pencil clings to an iPad Mini very well, and charges quickly. Be skeptical of reviews that complain that the pencil won't magnetically attach, the authors probably didn't align the flat side of the Pencil with the side of the cover marked "Magnetic." In using the pencil with this cover, the cover stayed firmly and reliably on the Apple Pencil. Those complaining of it slipping it off either put a 1gen Pencil, or some other stylus, in the cover. The cover is quite secure on the 2gen Apple Pencil. How's it feel? GREAT. In my man's hands, the soft silicone shape stays 'tween my fingers more securely than the Apple Pencil by itself. Though the 2gen Pencil has a flat side (for clinging to a supported iPad), this slightly larger, softer, beveled shape sits nicely in my hand for extended use. (Note there is an option in iOS Settings to use the Pencil for tapping/scrolling as well as drawing.) Cleaning is easily done with a damp rag. If more thorough cleaning is needed (mild soap and tepid water) take the Pencil out and set aside. Getting the cover off is tricky, but very simple. You'll want to start by removing the end cap, then putting the Pencil tip on a soft surface (again, a towel, silicone potholder, or similar), and gently, slowly pushing the cover down with fingernails against the protruding yellow barrel of the cover. Once the Pencil tip is inside the cover, continue by grasping the white butt-end of the Pencil and continuing sliding the cover off with a fingernail against the edge of the yellow barrel. With patience (!) it will come cleanly off without damage to the cover or the Pencil. Now you can gently watch the cover with mild soap and tepid water, pat with a clean towel, then let it air dry. As I said, I don't need another plastic ballpoint pen (even if the ink cartridge is replaceable), so I returned this in favor of Elago's simpler "wood pencil" Pencil cover, which I'll also review. Both are great covers for your Apple Pencil. If you're a Monami fan, or you badly need a Monami plastic ballpoint pen, this cover is for you.

Perfect fit and perfect quality it looks so nice too I would recommend. It was very easy for me to install and charging works with no problem on my ipad pro, my case doesn’t block the charging part so if you have a thick case I’m not sure how it would work

I love iPads, but the 4th gen 11 in Pro is (or was when I bought it) really tough to get accessories that worked for it AND offered the protection I desire. Based on many reviews for pencil sleeves that don’t support charge through, I thought I would have the same issue. I’m pleased to say that this product works well for the 2nd Gen pencil to include fit and charge through functionality. Definitely getting one for the missus as well. Not a bad price for what you get. Looks cool, and the color stands out better than the pencil by itself (harder to lose) It’s a pencil sleeve so I would be concerned if someone had trouble installing it beyond remembering to line up the charging side of the pencil with the magnetic side of the case. Only mark down is for the feel of the sleeve. Feels better than the pencil by itself but doesn’t feel as good as the ridged sleeve I had for the 1st gen pencil. But that could come down to personal preference and being accustomed to the other one. Setup: iPad Pro 11in 4th Gen Otterbox Case modded with Bluetooth keyboard from a (10.9 in ???) case that wouldn’t fit 2nd Gen Pencil with Monami x Elago Sleeve (make sure the charging side of the pencil is lined up with the magnetic side of the sleeve).

This yellow is really cute and reminds me of a traditional pencil. Love the packaging, free sticker, and the pen. The silicone has a nice feel and comfort.

I love the look, and the charging works well as long as you follow the instructions and put it on the right way. But because of its 2-piece design, it keeps sliding down off the pencil while you use it and I have to constantly readjust and pull up the sleeve. I really wish it had a uniform body so that the top would keep it from sliding down. 10/10 for the look, 4/10 for the function for this reason.

Fits great, comfortable and create good grip. Super easy to install and allows for charging

This item was difficult to get set up just to use it. There were no instructions to advise you to take the cardboard out of the cover. It seemed like it was part of the design, initially. It was a tight fit on my Apple Pro 2nd gen pencil. It was difficult to get on and moved some while using. It was even more difficult to get off. I cannot use it as it does not help with my grip when I write for long periods of time.

Was looking for something different. This collab with South Korean brand Monami was perfect! I looks great! -Double Tap works great, both on the side with the cutout and in the magnetic covered side as well. -Apple Pencil doesn't slide out of my hand. -Charges Pencil! (THERE'S A RIGHT AND WRONG WAY TO SLIDE YOUR PENCIL IN!) FLAT SIDE SAYS "MAGNETIC" ON IT.) Slide your magnetic side with the flat side that says magnetic on it. DON'T EXPECT IT TO CHARGE IF YOU HAVE A CASE ON YOUR IPAD. 2 Cases (iPad AND Pencil sleeve) between the magnets looses magnetism, therefore NO CHARGE, maybe even little to NO magnet hold FOR YOUR APPLE PENCIL. I say cus I read SO many negative reviews when people are too incompetent to apply a simple sleeve. Also NO it doesn't come with the Apple Pencil, yes I've seen those negative reviews too. *eye roll... it's a 17 Dollar Apple Pencil Sleeve y'all not a 130 dollar Apple Pencil. Please put 2 and 2 together here. Can be a little rough to slide in but slowly is the best way, don't get impatient, then shred it off cus you couldn't be careful. It's not the companies fault.

Cute, but ended up removing it, as it made the pen a little too thick for my liking. Great quality though.

Très bien pour protéger l’Apple Pencil (permet d’éviter les marques qui peuvent apparaître à cause de la puissance des aimants quand une poussière se glisse entre le Pencil et l’Ipad), ne gêne pas la charge. À noter qu’évidemment, le Pencil aura plus tendance à se décrocher facilement, mais rien de rédhibitoire

Bueno, bonito y funcional, hay que saber acomodarlo para que se pueda cargar inalambricamente. Le quedan muy justo y tiene un agarre bastante bueno. Por es precio creo yo que esta bien.

充電出来ない・側面に付かないとレビューがありますがちゃんと付くし充電も出来ます。PITAKAのカバーを付けていますが問題はありません。確かにiPad Pro 2022ではApplepencil Proの付く所の磁石が2個内蔵の為付かないと思いますが、iPad Pro M4であれば磁石は4個内臓の為使用可能なのだと思います。

Love the soft blue colour, charges with the iPad case (my charging side panel is exposed not covered), not too thick or thin to grip. Window cut out is helpful for the double tap feature of the pencil. I also like that it fit snugly so over time it doesn’t become loose.
