Customer Ratings & Reviews

Shipping was fast and the order process was easy. It was nice to find a discount to something I wasn't sure how it would be used. However, the Geek Squad should be punished for what they sent me claiming refurbished. The body of the pencil itself was fine, and the pencil held a charge and wireless charged / connected to the ipad… but the TIP they left on was visually damaged. Meaning it looked like it was either melted and flattened or somebody used it pressing super hard for a long time. It wouldn't write, and I thought about returning it... but I went and bought the 4 pack of tips for $20. So the cost of the pencil is $124 new that comes with 2 tips (on the pencil and a spare), the refurb was $89 and I had to buy a 4 pack of tips (although they should have changed the one on there) - so all in, I'm $109 - with two extra tips... so it was still a good deal overall, and as always, pleased with Best Buy as a company...

Great just like brand new. It didn’t come in the original packaging but works like a new one.

My only complaint about this Apple Pencil is that Apple is making it way too complicated to keep up with their monopolization of technology. We had to return the pencil because it didn't work with my daughter's older iPad. Such a hassle as a customer just to fit into Apple's World. Too bad we like our Apple products so much. They have us stuck!

Awesome pen that offers an ease of use for those particular tasks that require it.

Over one year later. I purchased a refurb because I have an aversion for paying full price, especially for something like this. Has worked great since I purchased it and not one issue using this with my iPad Pro 11” 2018. I don’t use the Apple Pencil everyday, but it is a great addition to the iPad and certainly has its uses and can make things a lot easier. I particularly like that I can sign documents with a real signature and email them out. Also great for drawing, taking notes, etc.

I purchased the Apple Pencil 2 Geek Squad Certified Refurbished. It was drastically cheaper then a brand new one, but it did not come without flaws. Best Buy claims that they verify it to work properly however that is not the case. When I got the Pencil it had trouble with simple task such as drawing a line. It would skip or not make contact at all. At first I thought it was my screen protector so I purchased a better quality one. But still had the same outcome. I was bout to return it to best buy, but decided to go to an Apple Store. As it turns out the tip was bad and needed be replaced. Once they did that it was a good as new. So going forward I have servere concerns about Best Buy's claim on refurbished items that they have been tested to work.

There's a huge world of stylus-compatible devices and tablets beyond the iPad, but Apple's tablets are the first choice for many artists and educators because of their ease of use (better than Surface tablets) And serious artists and design professionals should spare no expense for top-quality tools, and the new Pencil's convenient magnetic charging, clever design, and impressive functionality make it my Choice.

Love being able to teach my kids on the iPad how to read and write and the Apple pen makes it possible to transfer a digital experience to one that’s essential.

The Product came in really Good condition as New I loved it

I purchased this as a Geek Squad certified refurbished item. The item came in great shape and cannot tell that it was refurbished. In general, I like this design way better than the Apple Pencil that I used on a 10.5” iPad Pro. The sensitivity has been greatly improved and also charging the pencil on the side of the iPad vs. through the lightning port is a no brainer.

I almost sent this back after about 3 days of using. First it didnt want to seem to charge. It finally charged. Then it did not want to pair. Next it was draining the battery of the ipad pro a lot. But after 3 days, it finally started to work. I think this may be a flaw for the Apple Pencil. If you leave it off the side of the ipad, and lay it next to the Ipad. It will drain your battery completely. Even if you are not moving the pencil or ipad. I left it in this state overnight and woke up from a fully charged Ipad to a dead ipad. The other flaw is that even if the pencil is fully charged, and you leave it on the side of the ipad, it is still draining the ipad more than before I had the pencil.

Works perfectly well. The product was delivered fast alongside with my iPad and it was clean, no stains or any visible scratches, it works as a new device.

Cannot even tell it is refurbished, works and looks perfect!

Was surprised how well this tool worked. I’m a Samsung guy but needed an iPad for work reasons. Ive had various Galaxy notes for years and use the S-pen regularly. This Apple Pencil is very responsive and works great. I like how it attaches magnetically to the side of the pro and syncs/charges wirelessly. Only downside is I’m paranoid of loosing it as I imagine it could be knocked off if not careful. As with all Apple products, it is also way overpriced, but I bought mine refurbished and have no issues.

It works perfectly. I lost one and had to go buy another one bc I use it all the time!

Purchased on 21 July 2024 while on business travel which appeared new in the sealed box, but with an Open Box sticker packaged 27 Jan 2024 with « excellent «  condition. The pencil would not work when I returned home in EU the end of August. I went to 2 Apple service centers who indicated the Pencil was unusable/defective and had zero guarantee at Apple since it was over 4 years old and originally sold in October 2020. I’m not happy with this Geek squad certified excellent product and hope Best Buy will honor the guarantee if shipped from EU.

Works like a charm. Clean, smooth lines. Using with Procreate for designing.

It works really well with the ipad pro, i have, plus its more on the touch sensitive side, so its nice to see that if im using the pen and of my fingers touches the screen by mistake it doesnt pick on it.

An excellent addition to the iPad with a lower cost refurbished 2nd generation pencil guaranteed by the Geek Squad to be as good as new.

Excellent pencil works pretty good and the refusbished it was pretty good
