Last summer, Astropad released the impressive Rock Paper Pencil set for iPad, which includes a reusable/removable matte screen protector and a ballpoint pen. Stylish Apple Pencil tip for true pen-to-paper drawing. Now the company has released Rock Paper Pencil v2 with NanoCling frame, flat profile, improved Apple Pencil tip and more.
Rock Paper Pencil was one of my favorite Apple accessories of 2023 (full review). At a reasonable price, it offers a matte iPad screen protector that creates an incredibly realistic pen-on-paper feel.
Here's what's included in version 1:
- Matte Nano-Texture Screen Protector simulates paper and reduces glare
- Instantly attaches and removes
- Maintains color quality
- No bubbles
- Protective case included.
- Fine ballpoint pen tip for Apple Pencil
- Precise control
- Smooth and even feel
- Included in the package two tips
