Charges lightening fast. A 17 second charge gives it 30 minutes of juice.

I tried other pens and this is the best by far. It is a little slick to hold and on the noisy side when writing. Other than this it would merit 5 stars.

Writing is easy and smooth. Works great.
Charging isn't great. Luckily it charges fast as having it sticking out from the lightning port on the iPad is an accident waiting to happen. They need an adaptor so you can plug it into the wall or something.
It also needs a holder to the iPad. Either magnetic so it likes to stick to the side or better yet a slot to slide it into.

Puchased this device for my new iPad Pro. Works great for taking notes in graduate school. Purchased an open box item at the store and it was in great working condition. When I got home I realized it was missing a piece for the charging even though the sticker said it wasn't missing anything and went back in and they gave me a greater discount for the inconvenience. Thanks!

I use my pencil and iPad to take notes in my classes (using an app that lets me record the lecture as well) and it’s just like using pen and paper except BETTER! I can go back and review what the lecturer was saying during the exact time that I was writing certain notes, and there’s no clutter of notebooks and papers in my backpack!

Got the iPencil to go with Procreate on my iPad pro. For an old-school artist who has hand drawn everything for 40+ years this had made my transition into electronic drawing nearly seamless. I absolutely love it. It feels good in my hand & stays charged all thru an all-day-long drawing session with juice to spare.

Sucks they came out with a new version that won’t work with the older iPad Pro. And the price is high but love the functionality.

I've been a major iPad user and have bought one too many styluses hoping it would be better than the last... or at least not fall apart in a week. No luck. So, when I upgraded to the new 10.5 iPad Pro, I bought this pencil thinking it'd fail like all the others... But it works! I can take notes during lectures, I can color.... I love it. Wish they'd come up with it sooner!

I really wasn’t expecting this to be that different from a regular fine point stylus, but man oh man was I surprised!
I’m a teacher doing virtual learning and needed an efficient way to replicate the whiteboard/smartboard, and this combined with my iPad does the trick! My zooms have never looked better!

For iPad pro, you should go with Apple pencil.

My daughter got this so she can draw and doodle on her iPad and she thinks that this is magic! She is always doing “magic” on her iPad and sending pictures to people. It keeps her interest for hours! As her iPad gets upgraded, I am glad that they are upgrading the pencils too. This is something that will definitely be bought again!
