If a new iPad stylus has been on your wishlist for some time, now is the time to buy. Amazon's Daily Deals has treated us to another bargain, this time on the Apple Pencil (2nd Gen). As of Dec. 19, it's down to $79.99.

This Apple stylus is a real step up in the game, especially for those who love to sketch, take notes, or use your iPad for lots of intense editing. The stylus benefits from a magnetic attachment, so it's nice and easy to both store and charge. Double-tap gestures let you switch tools effortlessly, and it’s incredibly responsive, so whether you’re drawing fine details or jotting down quick notes, it feels just like using a real pen or pencil.

It works with various iPads, including the iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation) and iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation).

Compared to its predecessor, The Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) features a much sleeker design. The 1st Gen also doesn't have the magnetic attachment for charging and storage, nor the customizable double-tap gestures, so if these are important for you, the 2nd Gen is the stylus for you.

Get this deal from Amazon before the holidays.
