Operating Instructions

Palm Rejection Technology:

The Metapen Pencil Air8 features advanced palm rejection technology, allowing you to rest your hand naturally on the iPad screen while writing or drawing without causing unintended marks or interference. This provides a comfortable and intuitive experience, similar to using a traditional pen and paper.

Pixel Precision and Smooth Performance:

Equipped with an upgraded chip, the Air8 delivers up to 0.1mm pixel-level accuracy. This ensures smooth, lag-free writing and drawing, allowing for fine details and precise lines. Whether you are taking notes, sketching, or navigating your iPad, the stylus provides a responsive and natural feel.

Note: This stylus does not support pressure sensitivity or tilt sensitivity.

Lightweight Design for Extended Use:

Weighing only 10 grams, the Metapen Pencil Air8 is significantly lighter than many other styluses, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged writing or drawing sessions. This ergonomic design promotes more focused and comfortable use.
