GeekWebGuides Giveaway: Win a Custom Apple Pencil 2 From ColorWare

For this week's giveaway, we've teamed up with ColorWare to offer GeekWebGuides readers a chance to win a custom Apple Pencil 2 that's been painted to look like an actual number 2 pencil.

ColorWare is a company that makes custom-painted Apple products and accessories, and ordering from ColorWare is essentially the only way to get a non-standard color for AirPods, the Apple Pencil, the Magic Mouse, and AirTags.

Occasionally, ColorWare comes out with super fun special edition products, such as the new ColorWare Apple Number 2 Pencil. This is an ‌Apple Pencil‌ 2 that has a black tip, yellow body, painted-on eraser, and other detailing for a faithful rendering of a number 2 pencil.

ColorWare is making a limited number of the Apple Number 2 Pencils, and they're priced at $215. That's an $86 premium over the $129 price tag, but the extra cost is worth it for a unique design that will make your iPad stand out. To get the pencil-like effect, ColorWare has combined matte, metallic, and glossy paints for the pencil, and it comes in a special edition box.

ColorWare has been designing and selling custom-painted devices for more than two decades, and it has perfected the steps needed for a gorgeous, durable finish. ColorWare uses a multi-step coating process that includes a primer, the application of a proprietary color formula, and an X2 liquid plastic coating that protects the color. All ColorWare products are warrantied for 12 months.

Apple today sent out invites for an experience in Los Angeles on Wednesday, October 28, and the "Pro and tell" tagline on the invitation likely means that the rumored MacBook models with touch-enabled OLED displays will stick with MacBook Pro branding instead of the once-rumored "MacBook Ultra" name. The long-rumored "iPhone Ultra" ended up being named iPhone Duo, so speculation that Apple...

I’ve never once felt compelled to take advantage of Apple’s free engraving when placing an online order. The lone exception being my Pencil 2. I couldn’t resist.



That said, ColorWare’s spin is super fun.

funny how Apple (and everyone else basically) went through lengths to do away with skeuomorphism and yet every now and then something like this pops up and everyone's like "oh the nostalgia, gimme gimme" :D


well, it does look nice however.

I have always had my doubts about the durability of their coatings, especially since AirPod cases and Pencils can take a lot of abuse - but that is awesome. Would pair well with Scott Forstall's old skeuomorphic stuff. :p
FWIW I bought a keyboard and trackpad from them 5 years ago and I haven’t seen any signs of wear.

Not a fan of the Apple 2 Pencil, but at least this makes it look more fun. 🤷‍♂️
Apple needs to remember the "fun" in computing again. Their designs have become far too conservative. Sure, you can add fun cases and do things like ColorWare, but the old colourful iMac and iBook Apple is missing in action.
