    I recently purchased the 12 inch Ipad Pro for work and after all the reviews I read people mentioned pairing it with the Apple Pencil. I'm so glad I took their advice. It's fantastic and extremely responsive. If you're on the fence don't hesitate! You'll end up regretting it later.

    This makes the cheapest iPad even better (7th gen 10.2 inch). It works flawlessly and I would recommend for any artists or even just for taking digital notes. The pressure sensitivity is great and it’s overall a great quality product.

    !st gen pencil is really nice. Although there is nothing ergonomic with the device, there are a lot of sleeves you can purchase with it. I currently use my pencil with a $2.50 sleeve I bought from aliexpress, and it's really nice. My hand doesn't cramp whenever I use the pencil while taking long notes. The collaboration with the pencil and the device is super cool.

    We helped my son purchase an iPad for his graduation gift. He's an aspiring artist, so the matching Apple Pencil was a no-brainer. He is enjoying exploring the possibilities of the software without the hardware getting in the way. The feel on the tablet is spot on; neither too skittery nor too sticky.

    I love it. I was worried about spending the money on it because it is pricey but I think it was worth buying over other stylus brands. It writes nicely and feels good in the hand. It is easy to charge and the charge lasts me a long time.

    This apple pencil has made me really improve my note-taking skills, now I'm actually excited about taking notes during class. I love using and how comfortable it is, It feels like a normal pencil but better because you have so many tools you can use to improve the writing or drawing experience.Love it

    I’ve used other stylus’s for devices and this one by far is the best. It has a fine point that isn’t rubber, and it’s pressure sensitive. I use it for my art and video editing! (CHECK to see if it can work with your iPad before buying)

    I love the pencil you can do so many things. I use it for everything including games, coloring, taking notes. It charges very fast this is very nice who wants to wait a long time for something to charge. You can connect it to your iPad in a matter of seconds just plug it in. It was well worth the price

    This is an excellent input device for the Apple iPad Pro. Pros: • Excellent for drawing or writing • Excellent for reworking photos and doing graphic arts • When used as a touch control it is very precise when using the tip. I even like using it to read with and highlighting text in a book.

    I'm not a graphic artist and don't use my iPad to draw or color so I didn't think I'd find much use for the pencil. I was wrong, wrong, wrong! I use it frequently on various apps and am grateful I took the plunge, In addition to being fun to use, I like not having smudges so frequently!

    Before purchasing I was skeptical that I needed this for the new iPad. It however has the look and feel of a real pen and the qualitiy of writing is similar. I have tried other stylus that are supposed to work but are not nearly as responsive as this pencil. Great companion to the new iPad
