Definitely looks like Apple trying to reduce inventory prior to possibly introducing new model at their next event.

As I mentioned in yesterday's Amazon thread for the same pencil, this is pretty decent pricing than the $130 regular pricing for people that NEED the extra features and can keep the pencil charged. (Also recommend Apple Care if you decide to buy this - see the other thread for why).

For most everyone else, there are far less expensive options that provide ALMOST same functionality.

In short, know what your needs are before deciding to buy this or alternatives. Just hoping to save someone some money in these high inflation times and because this is our beloved SD.woot

This deal comes back multiple times a year via multiple outlets. It's just something that comes along

Prior to this past holiday season, the lowest I recall seeing was around $90. If their product is selling well Apple tends to not sanction sale prices (that too across major retailers - best buy also had same price) unless Apple might be discontinuing or replacing the product.

In addition to the decent knockoffs, I wouldn't be surprised though if Apple might be seeing some price pressures internally from their own most recent pencil with USB-C charging port and the fact that this pencil 2 becomes essentially a more expensive paperweight if charge is not maintained as there really doesn't seem to be a way to replace the tiny battery.

I guess time will tell.

Good post but just want to clarify 2 points

1) The Pencil 2 doesn't fall to the same charging issues as often as the Pencil 1 does simply to the fact that every time the Pencil 2 is magnetically stored on the iPad it is charging. The Pencil 1 needs to be actively connected to the device to charge and is easier to forget to keep it topped off. Pencil 2 is more passively charged every time it's docked.

2) If your Pencil 1, Pencil 2 or USB-C Pencil does have issues with the battery Apple will replace the entire unit for only $29 under their battery repair service. Please don't toss these things away, you can get them replaced for much cheaper from Apple.

#2 only applies if you have apple care. If not, they tell you to stick it where te sun don't shine and pay full price for a new one.

The store and online support will replace the battery of Apple Pencil 2 for $30.

I bought an Apple Pencil 2 from Amazon and opened it after a year. The pencil does not charge above 0% and Apple won't replace it for free.

The store manager says we should have known that the battery should be used within 6 months.

Still showing the deal price for me when I click through the link. Perhaps if the local store is OOS it might show different price from alternative sellers?

Only Apple can sell its customers a pencil for 80 dollars and call it a "deal."
