There are tons of great deals for Prime Day in October. Many companies have slashed prices on certain products to record lows. Case in point: the USB-C Apple Pencil is now cheaper than ever. You can buy one for $69. This is $10 off and matches the lowest price we’ve seen so far.
Apple debuted this model last year as the most affordable Apple Pencil ever, and this sale makes the peripheral even more wallet-friendly. But Apple has long had trouble making it clear to consumers which versions of the stylus are compatible with the iPad.

The USB-C Apple Pencil was already the most wallet-friendly version of the peripheral, but a new sale brings it back to record low prices.

For clarity, all iPad models that work with the USB-C Apple Pencil are listed below.
iPad Pro 13 inch (M4)
iPad Pro 12.9 inch (3rd generation or later)
iPad Pro 11 inch (all models)
iPad Air 13 inch (M2)
iPad Air 11 inch (M2)
iPad Air (4th generation or later)
iPad (10th generation)
iPad mini (6th generation)
While it’s nice to be able to charge peripherals with a USB-C cable, this version lacks some of the best features of the Apple Pencil Pro and second-generation Apple Pencil. It can be attached to the side of your iPad using a magnetic holder for storage and convenience, but magnetic charging is not supported. Pressure sensitivity is not available, nor is Apple’s nifty double-tap feature. However, the company says the USB-C Apple Pencil supports pixel-perfect accuracy, low latency, and tilt sensitivity.
