It feels great, in some ways even better than the Apple Pencil
By Jose on Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2020
About a year ago, I bought this Logitech Crayon after (temporarily) losing my Apple Pencil. I needed a stylus right away, and after some research, decided on this one. Eventually I did find my Apple Pencil just a few days later. So I've had a full year to compare and contrast both styluses (styli?) First the obvious: the Crayon is less expensive. Let's not confuse it with cheaper. In some ways it does feel more like a "toy" than the Pencil, namely, with the orange touches I'm not a fan of. But the aluminum body is definitely nicer to the touch and better build quality than the surprisingly cheap-feeling Pencil, with its own design foibles (cap and lightning connection?) To me, the Crayon is also nicer to hold. I like that it is both wide but flat, and to me feels nicer to write on a tablet than the Pencil. The width makes it feel substantial, but the flatness lends control. A regular pencil is thin and is usually meant to be used to write precisely within college-ruled paper; that's just not how it works on a tablet, or at least I certainly don't write that small. I feel I have a bit better control with the Crayon than the Pencil. Of course the big drawback with the Crayon, compared to the Pencil, is that it does not have pressure sensitivity. For artists or anyone who draws a lot, that's huge. For me, I mostly just write notes, and in some ways enjoy the uniformity of the thickness of my writing. Like a mono font, but with my ugly handwriting. Can be charming. But that's only a silver lining, however genuine it is... it really is a big deal to not have pressure sensitivity in such an expensive alternative. Overall, this is a great little stylus. The design I think is extremely functional and enjoyable to use, but esthetically feels undecided; it wants to be treated like an adult with the aluminum body, but also like a kid with the loud orange rubber and plastic bits. I'd rather it just grew up. Or at least let me choose something other than orange. With a few different design choices, and pressure sensitivity added in the mix, it'd be a no-brainer to choose this over the Pencil. As it is now, even with its quirks, I still find myself reaching over to this thing more than my Pencil, demoting the OG Pencil to the backup role.

Mixed feelings about battery life and lost cap
By Amazon user on Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2025
1) I use it like twice a week to highlight text on Books and I’m frequently annoyed that it has no battery. I wish I would be notified once it’s getting low so I can recharge it ahead of time. Maybe showing a notification on the iPad while in use? 2) Also the silicone charger cap started to fall down and recently I just lost it. That’s a design flaw and I don’t want to pay $10 or $15 for a new one. 3) sometimes it doesn’t properly highlight text when using Books. It can also be very unresponsive when doing so over a shared screen on a Zoom call. Don’t know for sure who to blame issue for, Apple, Zoom or Logitech.
