It’s the best pen so far that I’ve used. It’s tilt check is accurate and pressure sensitivity is phenomenal. I’ve been able to write hard on my iPad Pro and both have held up fine, I was a Bit worried at first but it’s been fine. Make sure if your drawing you get a good app, sketchbook, while free, doesn’t cut it.

I bought an iPad Pro specifically to use the apple Pencil. It’s more convenient to use than the Wacom board I have and is more intuitive as well since you can see directly what’s going on the screen. Works really well for taking notes and drawing. The battery life is good but the little magnetic cap seems really easy to lose.

When the Apple Pencil came out, I was not very excited by it. I wasn't sure I would use it. When I upgraded to the new IPad Pro, I figured i would give it a try. While I do not use it for any work functions, it is great coloring and editing photos. There a few apps that really use the pencil well and have made it very enjoyable.

If you are getting an iPad pro, the apple pen is a MUST have! It's so great and makes taking notes easier and faster. It's pressure sensitive so you can control width and darkness of the line, and even do shading. It's very sensitive so it's great for note takers and artists alike. I definitely recommend the apple pen.

This was a Christmas gift for my daughter to use with her iPad and her design software. She LOVES it and says it is much easier than using her fingers LOL
Just make sure you know which Apple Pencil you will need and that it will work with your device.

The pen is easy to use, charge, set up. It's typical that Apple won't add as a bonus but its use is great.

Awesome to use. Perfect “stylus” but battery life isn’t the best. When I’m not using it, it still loses battery so I find myself having to charge it incase I need it. I wish I could get the 2nd Gen but I have the 2nd Gen iPad Pro, not the newest one so the 2nd Gen Pencil isn’t compatible. But its awesome for my notes for my college classes, so I still love it. Still worth the buy.

I absolutely LOVE this thing! Makes it so easy to sign electronic documents such as PDFs, write notes, and draw diagrams. No more paper! LOL Seriously, this thing is just awesome and I am so glad I bought it. I was concerned about the price at first, but I now believe it is worth every penny. Thanks Apple and Best Buy!

Apple has done such a great job with the pencil... most art programs take this tool to the next level... you have to experience it in an art/drawing app to really appreciate it... the pressure sensitive tip is very expansive in creativity... get it and have phun! Great way to keep the screen clean of fingertip germz too!

I'm an apple enthusiastic but have been thinking of the real utility of this apple pencil because the price is not that good. However, at this time when I bought the 2nd generation iPad Pro, I had no other option but to concede the excellence of Apple Pencil. You should buy it if you're the user in need.

It seemed Apple designs their product to work for their devices. I bought Logitech crayon. However it does not work for my iPad Pro 9.5. Apple Pencil works great out of the box. If you own Apple products, it is best to buy their accessories. It may cost more but guarantee to work.
