    I bought an ipad air for my daughter since she started college, and noticed that it would be a good idea that she would be able to make quick writing notes with the Ipad, so I bought the apple pen, and it has been working wonderful. It is a great tool that save you paper and time.

    The apple pen is such a vital part of the iPad, I highly recommend purchasing as it makes the flow of this 10x easier with the use of your iPad. It has great battery life!

    Works great. Had to gen first Gen as my iPad was a 9th gen. Make sure to get the right one or it won’t work. 10th gen and newer you can get the 2nd gen pencil.

    I mean it's an apple pencil.. not much more to say about it other than it's a bit overpriced but there are not better alternatives. It does what it's suppose to do. However, it does lose battery life pretty fast, imo. That said, it does charge pretty fast as well. My unit sounds like there i someone loose inside some times.. like when it's tapped against the table or something. Seems a bit weak to flex as well, imo. Also recommend not always having it connect to your ipad because it will passively drain your ipad's battery very fast.

    The Apple Pencil is the best part of my iPad. It has a long battery life and precise writing. I have rarely had any trouble with palm rejection while using it meaning you can write just like with a piece of paper. A final benefit is that it is covered with the iPad Apple care, no additional cost. 10/10 iPad must have.

    I really like this pencil compared to the 1st generation pencil. Best things about it is the smaller size and the induction charging from the top of my iPad. It is also very responsive in intuitive. Have not used it for art, so can’t speak for the other 90% of its features.

    Works perfectly and smoothly, especially for an open box item. Set up was a breeze. I use it mostly for school work with notability and it makes the process go so much faster than typing. The price tag may be a little high so this is definitely an item to get when you have the extra funds as well.

    Was skeptical about purchasing this, but I have to say that it’s a cool little investment. Very pleased with the performance of the pencil with my Mini iPad. Using it to write with is nice as I sometimes get tired of typing to text. I’m glad that I bit the bullet.
