Brad discusses enhancing the Apple Pencil's performance with new pen tips designed to improve drawing accuracy on an iPad. He contrasts these tips with previous solutions like rubber tips and textured screen protectors that compromise display quality. After testing both soft and hard pen tips using the Procreate app, Brad finds that the new tips avoid the wobble issues of previous covers and present minimal drag resistance differences. While the hard tips offer better durability and aesthetic coherence with the Apple Pencil, Brad still favors textured screen protectors for their drawing experience, despite their drawbacks. He invites viewer input on the matter and highlights his sponsor, Squarespace, emphasizing its website development tools.

In this part of the video, Brad introduces pen tips designed to enhance the Apple Pencil’s drawing experience. He previously reviewed a magnetic screen protector from the same company. Brad discusses the limitations of using the Apple Pencil on a smooth glass iPad screen and the impact of traditional screen protectors on display quality. He has tried rubber pen tips before but found them unsatisfactory due to imprecise lines and an unnatural feel. The new pen tips come in two types: soft and hard. Brad is particularly interested in trying the hard tips, which are intended to work with both Apple Pencil versions by replacing the original tips, albeit with the understanding that they might wear out faster. He plans to start testing with the hard tips installed on his Apple Pencil.

The black tip, named “wiggle,” is modified to have no streamlining, causing noticeable wiggle in the lines. The creator finds that the new pen tips do not add unwanted wobble or accuracy issues to the pen lines, which was a problem with previous covers. The segment concludes with the creator beginning to ink a character’s head using the standard technical pen.

In this part of the video, the presenter evaluates the effectiveness of different pen tips for drawing on an iPad. They note that while rubber tips work well, they prefer drawing on a textured screen protector, despite it dulling the screen colors and getting scratched. The presenter tests harder pen tips but finds minimal difference in drag resistance compared to softer ones, suggesting that harder tips might last longer and aesthetically match the Apple Pencil better. Ultimately, they find the expensive pen tips less appealing than screen protectors, preferring the texture of the latter despite their drawbacks. The video concludes with a call for viewer opinions.
