Apple has built an amazing product that has answered all of my stylus wishes. Something that writes smoothly and is instant apparent where the tip of the writing device is. I use it daily while workings not the iPad Pro to jot notes, make annotations on documents and emails, as well as to sketch use cases. Would definitely recommend if you prefer writing as opposed to typing, drawing, or annotating visuals as an aid to your text.

Apple once again has developed a product to make life easier for their users. The pencil is sturdy in your hand and draw and writes true to the writers writing style . I love it and use it everyday with out failure . The charge time is usually over night but I have no issues with the pencil at all.

I've used a normal pencil since before I can remember, and the Apple Pencil comes darn close to feeling real. Writing on a screen is less tiring because there is less friction than the real thing. I've been using it to clean up PDFs in ForScore and editing them in Photoshop with great results!

I am in love with this thing!! I wasn’t sure if I would actually need or use this pencil. Now that I have it, I will never go back! It’s so much easier to scroll through things with the pencil. I love this handy little thing.

I love this for drawing or even for when poking around on stuff.
There are two ways to charge it, the first but plugging it into the ipad, the second but using the adapter it comes with and charging it with your regular lightning cable.

I am an Apple product fan. I waited awhile to perchase the Apple Pen so I would have plenty of time to see how others liked it. Let's face it...100 bucks for a stylus is kind of pricey. The pen to me is worth it.
I love it. Feels great in your hand. It charges fast. I love the tip and shade use as well as the more pressure darker color feature. If I had to give it a low mark it would be that it discharges faster then I would like.

I have to tell you that I wasn't excited about the Apple Pencil at first. Once I used it, I liked the way it wrote/worked on my iPad. The only downside is that you had to charge it in an iPad, so there were many times I went to use it while teaching and it had no charge. The other concern was price. I worried about losing it (and the $100+ I paid for it!)

The Apple pencil is a great product. Buying it as an open box item gave me a great discount. It works very well with my iPad Pro. I have not had any issues using the Apple pencil on my iPad Pro. It paired up with my iPad Pro effortlessly. I really enjoy using it on my iPad Pro.

My husband uses this daily at work. He says it’s been a wonderful tool to have to create things with. It helps cut down time in meetings because he’s able to write down quick notes but instead of wasting paper, it is saved in his MacBook. Everything all in one spot! Great purchase

I WAS ON VACATION AND LOST MY APPLE PENCIL. I WAS TOTALLY DEVASTATED AS THE APPLE PENCIL IS MY MOST IMPORTANT ACCESSORY TO MY IPAD PRO. I HAD TO HURRY UP AND REPLACE IT AS I LOVE THE PENCIL AND HOW IT MAKES MY USE OF THE PRO A BREEZE, LOVE IT BETTER THAN USING THE KEYBOARD!!!

The best pencil out there for Apple tablets is their own. You can also get four (4) replacement tips for $19.00. Both my kids have one now. The draw endlessly with them.

I purchased the iPad pro recently and it seemed fitting that I add the Apple Pencil. The pairing process was a breeze and I proceeded to get a few more apps that make the best use of it. The responsiveness is the best of any stylus or pencil I have ever used. It's a tad too long in my opinion and definitely a little heavy. Tip is very small which makes writing very natural. Sketching apps and note taking are where this shine.
