I have tried many other styli for iPads and while there are many that work and even work well, they never replaced my pen and paper method. When I received the iPad Pro 9.7 and the Apple Pencil that changed my note taking from pen and paper to iPad... I finally feel comfortable to put my notepad away.

I love this product. It charges real quick and the battery is long. I have no problem with this what-so-ever and I am glad I bought it. Just make sure to buy a screen protector with your apple product just in case ( I get paranoid Incase it scratches my screen).

I thought I would have never brought an Apple Pencil with it's just launched, while since I got the iPad 2018, so I gave it a try, then started to love it. With some of the App, I can write on my iPad just like a notebook and the App translate into text almost in real time.

Apple First Generation Pencil for iPad Pro

Works exactly like it's supposed to. This is the originally first generation Apple Pencil. So far I've lost three because there's no way to attach it to the iPad Pro like there is with the new pencils.

I was not sure if I needed the pencil since the Ipad has a touch screen. But I love it. It is great for taking notes and coloring. Yes! Coloring. I doesn't look like that horrible computer generated writing. It looks like my actual hand writing.

Surprised this was $100, but was told it should last at least a couple years. The tips will need to be replaced on occasion, not sure of the price. Product is working well so far and working great with our new iPad.

I love this pencil! It writes so smoothly and precise. I can charge it for so little time and it lasts forever. Definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for something that is great at note taking/school!

We have two IPads and two Apple Pencils. We have had no issues with using them and they work great and do what we need them to do. We use an editing program for pictures and it allows us to get in close to details to edit. If your an Apple lover and have iPads, you need this item.

I’ve been doing a lot of research on the Apple Pencil to use for school and it still pleasantly surprised me! It’s incredibly useful and easy to use and I recommend it 1000% to any student that wants to cut down on paper use and have easy access to notes.

A useful hands on tool

Pinpoint hands on experience on the screen makes life more efficient for the common student, but a must have for the art enthusiast. I've found that I mainly use it for school. I can take notes on my pro instead of carrying a notebook around and I can write on pdf files directly. No more printing out an assignment and then scaning it back with my writing. PSA, I believe it only works with the iPad Pro, not the regular iPad.

Very lovely to draw and write with. The only con is every once in a while, the apple pencil disconnects from the iPad. To fix this, I usually plug it back into the iPad and everything is fine again.

Not very ergonomic i'm an Apple guy at heart and this pencil leaves me wanting .the accuracy is great but the slipperiness of it and its top heavy. it's out of balance all the time I'm really disappointed in how they designed it style wise I had to put a rubber sheets around it to keep it from slipping .it was so slippery overall not totally happy

Better than I thought

Works much better than your fingers or any other stylus.
It even comes close to using artist pencils on paper in the fact that based on angle and pressure it mimics real pencil strokes. Now if Apple will make a smaller one available to use on the 8 Plus or X it would be awesome.

Writes just like a regular pencil/pen! This pencil paired with a compatible IPad has made a tremendous difference in going paperless and taking notes in college. It responds fast and handwriting is almost the same as on regular pen and paper.
