    An absolutely amazing tool for anyone that is an artist or that loves drawing. The difference it shows between that and a stylus is more than I imagined, though a lot of money in the long run, I feel as though it is definitely worth it!

    Without the pencil, you might as well just get an Air. It works well for note taking and drawing

    do not buy an ipad without this apple pencil! it makes everything so much easier and it’s awesome quality and resembles a regular pencil. this pencil takes note taking and drawing to a new level. it’s small enough to keep in a certain case and the battery lasts pretty long! please consider getting this if you are wanting an ipad!!

    Right out of the box I was trying to find out what it would write on, thinking falsely that it maybe could write on any static thing or document i was looking at. After poking around the App Store I figured I'd really need NotePad+ for $15 to do what I wanted which was to make notes on Invoices, pictures or musical instrument charts (sheet music). It does that just fine. If I was an artist I would think there aren't enough tip styles but I am new to this product and I will explore that end of things more if I ever decide I have the need. I would've given it 4.5 Stars if I could have but had to choose 4 or 5.

    There are probably some of you out there who think that this is just a glorified stylus. Let me go ahead and tell you that it is not a stylus because it doesn’t work on all apps. However, this thing is a major necessity if you’re getting a compatible iPad. I honestly couldn’t imagine buying my iPad without getting this. Artists and heavy note takers. This thing is any calligraphy tool you need! :)

    Battery life is pretty good. It can be charged by plugging it into the iPad, but I don't recommend this since I could easily see its lightning connector getting snapping off while plugged in, which would damage both the Pencil and iPad. The Pencil itself is a little top heavy but it works well once paired. Drawing with it is nice and allows for nice variability in pressure and shading. Works very well with Photoshop and Lightroom mobile.

    This little toaster is perfect! I toast my bagel in it every day and it comes out just right. It has a bagel setting which I love. It also has a warming setting just in case your toast is ready before you are. I love the retractable cord and the fact that the toaster is so light. Very happy with this purchase!!

    I've been reluctant to purchase an Apple Pencil, even though I've been a iPad owner since iPad's became available. However, once the Pencil was introduced, I didn't know if it would be of any benefit to me. I'm happy to say, this was a GREAT decision to purchase one and has open up a huge amount of new possibilities for me. Both with quick business and sales notes, along with fun personal time apps. Works great!

    I have both the Microsoft pen and Apple's pencil. I love the eraser on the Microsoft pen and miss it on the Apple's pencil. Apple does have the ability to angle the pen to create wide strokes. The response on the ipad is great. If you are a Photoshop user then this is a must have. Definitely is a lot easier to select than with a Wacom on a computer.

    Very useful. The Apple Pencil is undeniably a game-changer for digital artists, designers, and note-takers alike. One of the standout features of the Apple Pencil is its incredible pressure sensitivity. With tilt and pressure recognition, it allows for natural strokes, emulating the feel of traditional drawing tools.

    I initially purchased this Apple Pencil to use in college. It came in handy numerous times. I used it to take notes, draw, sketch, and color. Now out of college, it still comes in handy. I use it to take notes at work and quickly write my to-do lists. The charge lasts a very long time and doesn’t take long to charge at all.
