Considering that Apple typically never has lower pricing available on their new items, I was happy to find this as refurbished. It works perfectly with the latest (2018) version of the iPad. The double-tap functionality on the pencil is a nice add-on. I appreciate the flat edge on the pencil as it keeps it from rolling off my desk. The magnetic charging capability is a huge upgrade. I've noticed that the pencil's responsiveness is vastly improved since the previous version. This is a nice add-on to your 2018 generation iPad.

I was worried about refurbished due to some not good reviews but so far so good! I think I got lucky to get this. Mine came with the original box but without the booklet. But it works for me and most importantly, the pencil is working well. There's no problem.

Bought this as a certified open box, and was basically new, and saved $40. I bought it just to have but I find myself using this ALL THE TIME. love taking notes in meetings and kids love using to color and draw. If you can find it on sale, it’s a must buy

This Did not work for me, but I may have just gotten the wrong one. Its a shame that pencils will work on one thing and not another but I digress.

This is way better than the first generation Apple Pencil. The ability to charge wirelessly is probably the best new feature. It feels sturdy and like a real pencil on my hands.

I did not think I would enjoy the Apple Pencil as much as I am, since I am not an artist. It’s proven extremely convenient for note taking and especially when having to stand up, it’s much easier than typing on my 11” iPad Pro.

A fantastic addition to use on my ipad pro, there is a quick response time between using it on screen for drawing or note taking, plus charging it on the iPad is extremely convenient.

The Apple Pencil is a added bonus if you like to draw or to write notes manually. The pencil is also great for inserting points in a typed manuscript or printed material.

I have several apps for sketching, drawing, and painting. What is nice about the Apple Pencil second generation is that with a double tap on the pencil. It makes it simple to correct mistakes.
