Good variety pencil pro tips
Great tips for drawing, I really like the more marker feeling 2Bs and girlfriend prefers the a HBs which feel in between the original pen and 2B tips

You can Feel a Difference!
These are awesome! They look exactly how they're advertised in all the pictures. The HB nibs feel similar, if not identical, to the default Apple Pencil nib. The 2B nibs feel softer when using, causing more friction as you work across the screen. I don't feel a particular difference to the black and white nibs of either hardness (2B/HB) - I came to the conclusion (MY conclusion) that it's purely aesthetic/preference. The white nibs, however, do get dirty fairly easy - easier & quicker compared to the default nib. They're for sure made out of a different material than the default (is why I think this is...). Another downside to the 2B nibs is that, when pressing decently hard on the screen while moving, they tend to squeak. Just a bit. Overall, I have no qualms with this product. I think there's a lot of nibs with a decent amount of variations (color, hardness) to where I am satisfied with this product!PROS:+ different feels of writing+ a lot of sparesCONS:- get dirty (?) easily- 2B sometimes squeaks when writing withSIDE NOTE:* As a frequent digital artist, I like using the 2B nibs for drawing (especially for long hours) and HB for writing/other uses

Relatively quieter. Crack after a few months of use. Still a fair deal.
These tips are SLIGHTLY ‘quieter’ than the tip that comes with the Apple pencil. So, ‘softness’ is relatively more - don’t expect rubber tip feeling, that won’t give you the accuracy. Quieter enough that I’m less worried about distracting others in a meeting when using them. Accuracy seems similar.1 star deducted as the tips do seem to split/crack after a few months (even when protected by a cover). But they are cheap enough that it’s a fair deal.

Works great
I think the top half and the bottom half are probably the same 2 hardnesses, the softer one drags a bit, but not in a bad way. Just to describe what it's like to draw with the soft tip, it's like if you took an eraser and slid it across your ipad

best pencil tips I've used
I really like these pencil tips! I was a bit skeptical since I use an (admittedly off-brand) paper texture screen protector on my iPad, but I have been using the same pencil tip for over a month with no visible wear. I am a graphic designer so I use my pencil almost every day for work or other uses, and it has been consistent and nice. The texture is really great on my screen and offers a nice amount of resistance without impacting pencil stability too much. The different hardness levels give a different feel of the pencil against my screen, but don't seem to wear like the official pencil tips. I haven't given them all a try, but I know this set will last me a long time.

Feel better than the original apple pencil tips
I have been using these for a few months now and I like them. I have an off-brand paper-like screen protector on my iPad so they feel more like pencil because of the softness of the tip against the grit of the screen. I love that there are replacements as well as a case so I don't loose them in my backpack. They have been lasting me just fine, I have only used the 2 black tips and there isn't any noticeable wear. I did a lot of searching for replacement tips before I bought these and I think these are the best ones I found.

Doesn’t feel any different
If you feel the two tips with your fingers you can feel a bit of a texture on these but when writing I don’t notice a difference at all. They feel identical they write identical. Overall I would say this is not worth the buy.

Not as grippy as hoped, better than I expected.
First off, the case for these came shattered. The seller has not bothered to reinforce the thin plastic with even a bubble wrap. However, all 8 tips arrived in perfect shape, and the case I use for my iPad Pro has an accessory pocket that keeps them secure.On the tips:The HB tips are very close to the originals that came with my 2nd Gen Apple Pencil, maybe just a fraction harder, but have that same glide. All thread in perfectly.The 2B tips are much more sticky or grippy, providing the resistance expected with pencil-on-paper drawing. The description stated a “squeak” or something on the screen, but I have seen nothing like this. However, I do keep a compact spray bottle of screen cleaner and a microfiber cloth with my tablet at all times, and use an artist’s glove when working, so there is no skin oil or other contaminants present.There seems to be no difference in formulation of the resin (plastic) used between the black and white tips aside from the black dye.My only issue is the fact that I now have far too many hard tips, but buying the 2B tips alone can’t hit this price. I am an amateur photographer and digital artist, so I prefer the grippy tips common on Wacom tablets, but as I have fully converted to Apple now, these tips are the only solution. When I say that, a well configured iPad Pro is still so much cheaper than Wacom’s “laptop screwed on to the back of a drawing pad”, and have the benefit of being Windows lag free. Look, Windows is great for a lot, but when a system service borrows the processor to do something while you are drawing… after 3 tablet PCs with Wacom digitizers “aging out” thanks to Microsoft’s required updating, this is where we are.So, good soft tips for artists. Fit the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil and read properly on the digitizer. Does the job but comes with baggage!
