    A while back I had a Gen 1 Apple Pencil, but it barely used and I just didn’t like the feel of it in general. I’m not sure if it was my iPad or the gen 1 Pencil but I enjoy the gen 2 much better. The pressure sensitivity feels and looks amazing. It feels like I’m genuinely drawing on the screen and I just love the sleek feel of it. Although the price is a bit high, black Friday’s deals lowered it to a much better price in my opinion.

    I was hesitant to purchase as I wasn’t sure how much I would use it, and people complained about the weight and lag time. Felt good out of the box. No lag time. Sticks like glue to my iPad when not in use, but releases easily when I want to use it. Highly recommend.

    I’ve bad both versions of the pencil and I love this model much more than the first. It’s ability to switch between tools whilst taking notes or drawing makes it a lot easier to use. Plus not having to plug it in to charge was the big issue I had with the gen 1.

    Super convenient pen to use with your iPad. I have to use it with a paper-like screen protector on my iPad or it feels weird to write.

    Really wanted this for a long time but was hesitant about the price. I have had it for over a year, and it is definitely worth the money! I use it alongside my iPad Pro to do design work and I love it!

    I cannot compare this to the 1st generation pencil, but it is working beautifully with the iPad Air 4th gen. My daughter wanted to explore digital art, and she has been happy with the features of this pencil using procreate.

    I really like the Apple Pencil 2. I also have a Pencil one but like how charging this is as easy as magnetically attaching it to my iPad Pro 12.9 tablet. It is more comfortable and feels very precise.

    I gave it 4 stars for the sole fact that I’m paying an exorbitant amount for something that probably costs 3-4 dollars to produce. But that’s apple for you. With that being said this thing is extremely cool and fun to do “digital drawings” with. You can literally pick any type of writing drawing or painting utensils on the app I got for it, so cool.

    I like the feel of this new ish model of the pencil. The double tap feature is a welcomed new improvement as well as the wireless charging when placed on the top of the iPad. Way to go Apple for the improvements.
