Colorware takes you back to grade school with the Apple Number 2 Pencil
Colorware has painted a lot of items over the years going back to the iPhone 3G and beyond, but its latest product is particularly clever. The limited edition Apple Number 2 Pencil transforms Apple's 2nd-gen stylus into a facsimile of a standard HB #2 pencil, with the only thing missing being chew marks on the eraser.
"What sets it apart? It connects with your iPad in a snap, charges without a hitch, and delivers precision that feels just right," the company states on the product page. "And it's styled after the familiar pencil we all know, upgraded for today's tech. It's not just smart; it's a smart looker too." (As a reminder, the 2nd-generation Apple Pencil offers features like "pixel-perfect precision, tilt and pressure sensitivity, and imperceptible lag," according to Apple.)
Colorware goes on to describe other ways that it will change your life. "It's that unspoken impact, the quiet ripple of intrigue it sends through the room. This isn't just about having a piece of technology; it's about carrying a symbol of uniqueness that speaks volumes before you do."
That paint sure is doing a lot of work! But it ain't cheap - the Apple Number 2 Pencil costs $215, which is a $136 premium over the 2nd-generation Apple Pencil, currently priced at $79. Still, it's undeniably adorable and could be a great gift for an iPad artist. Just don't try to sharpen it (or chew on it).
