Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

I really enjoy this pencil. It’s nice to have as a stylus and when I am writing notes. I also got a great deal and the best part is that Best Buy matches pricing with Amazon! Thank you so much Best Buy!

Great for any iPad user looking for additional productivity. Helpful when making notations and also extremely easy to use and pair with an iPad. Great battery life that only needs to be charged occassionaly. Would certainly recommend the product.

My daughter loves her apple pen. She uses it to draw a deletion of pictures and images on her iPad. This is truly an item that will be utilized for various reasons on different devices.

Absolutely love it! - love THE options to make notes without typing and the quick response to my simple touches on my iPAD. With fat fingers THE Point on THE pen sure makes many selections easier

I really wanted to stop using paper and pencil in school and this has helped my transition perfectly. I absolutely love this pencil. This pencil could use some buttons to help quickly transition though pencil settings but this is a great start for Apple.

It feels like I'm using a pen writing on my iPad Pro. Pretty cool. Syncs quickly and charges fast.

My untechie husband didn't want to spend money for pencil for his new 6th generation Ipad. I told him I would buy the pencil for him. Now he can't put his ipad or pencil down. He loves drawing and enjoys the pencil when taking notes at meetings.

Got it as a nice add on for the wife.... it’s just used as a kids crayon now. The quality is great and the battery life is out of this world but unless you really need this you’re never getting the money’s worth out of it.

Before I purchased the Apple Pencil I was skeptical of how useful and durable it would be. I checked it over in a Best Buy store by looking at one and handling it to get the feel of it in my hand. I liked the tactile feeling and decided to go by the Apple Store to get a Genius perspective. What I got was an uneducated/non-genius “Uh, it’s my lunchtime” look from the Apple employee. So I went back to Best Buy. A gentleman who I saw looking over a Mac laptop was engaged in conversation about the Apple Pencil. He didn’t have a good experience with it and didn’t know if he would buy it again. He said the battery didn’t last, but admitted it could have been his fault. He charged it once, then didn’t use it for over six months. I went ahead and got one. Keep it charged and haven’t had any problems. It’s so much easier to use than my fingertips. Works great with Microsoft OneNote. Would definitely recommend it and would buy it again.

The pencil is the perfect companion to the iPad Pro. I'm a graphic designer/artist and this saves me a lot of time when I need to go from concept to computer. Its almost like your drawing in vector so to speak. So once I sketch with the lovely pencil I transfer to Adobe illustrator and boom.

I honestly didn’t want to buy this at first when I bought my iPad. Like what does it do that my finger or a cheap stylus do? But I’m really glad I bought it! I have Microsoft on my iPad and it’s REALLY great with excel! It’s also really great when I have long nails.

Pencil works great on my iPad Pro but come on Apple, make this compatible to my iPhone 7plus. it would be great to use with my credit card app. Battery life when not in use went down after about a day and a half. :(

The apple pen writes great, just doesn't erase.It writes smoothly like a fine pen point and honestly no other pen could beat it if its especifically for ipad use. I use it for school notes and meetings. As a JW i even use it for those meetings to take notes. I would have given it 5 stars if it would let me erase without having to touch erase icon and so forth. After all its pretty costy for it to not have such eraser

This product is something that I thought was not necessary. On the contrary it is absolutely a very useful tool that compliments the iPad Pro. Easy to use and brings out a new side of the Apple iPad Pro and what it could do. I would recommend this for note takers, artists, and more.

Really, no parallax! Can't even get that on my cintiq. the cap can be cumbersome, but it charges pretty quickly. If I draw ferociously for too long, sometimes the tip loosens a bit, but that's just a quick tighten with your fingers.

Had to buy one for each child and they're happy with this item. Only con is the price for such a simple/extra apple device, that should be included with the ipad

So far so good. My wife uses it for making lists and notes to self on her I pad Air. Easy to set up and begin using. Currently looking for apps to draw in color or B&W. I think a pencil case would be a good add-in.

After purchasing this pencil, I have found myself getting back into my artistic side. There is almost no latency while drawing. I'm using it on the new 10.5 inch iPad so I'm sure the iPad has something to with the speed. But this pencil was very accurate, sleek looking and functional. My only complaint is that the cat covering the charger is just a little loose fitting. It has a magnetic clasp so whenever falls off.

'I love my new I-pad. Had a few glitches but they were resolved quickly by the Geek squad. One of them was especially helpful but I can’t remember his name. It started with a V.
