Astropad's New iPad Screen Protector and Pencil Tip - Rock Paper Pencil

Ever since the introduction of the Apple Pencil and its pairing with the iPad, I've been on the hunt for a high-quality pencil tip and screen protector. When Astropad unveiled their latest screen and tip solution, I wasted no time in making the purchase. It turned out to be a wise decision because it completely sold out within just six hours! I've always admired the remarkable work done by the Astropad team, and my instincts told me that this new product had to be nothing short of exceptional.

Thank you for this review! Super helpful. Does that little bit of air that you mention a few times eventually go away? I can imagine having a bit of give with each stroke would be annoying. Love your enthusiasm, though, that’s very encouraging.

I wonder how long that plastic screen cover will last with that metal tip digging into it. I’d like to see how it looks after several illustrations have been done on it.

When I have used other metal tips I’ve consistently produced wobbly lines when drawing, especially on diagonal lines. This was very prominent in Procreate. Does this happen to produce the wobbly lines?

How much does it affect the color during videos and such?

Thanks for the review! There is not much info out there and the screen protector is quite expensive. Do you think it can be used with wrap-around (bumper) cases like the logitech keyboard ones? Also, how durable is the screen film? What about the tip? Is it compatible with features like tilt or hover?

I just watched another pretty in-depth review on this and they said that when you have the protector on, you have to press way harder when your digital painting for shading with tilt and stuff like that. Did you find You had to press way harder when you were painting?
