    My son uses his iPad at college and wanted to be able to hand write notes if he wanted to. This works very well for him. Makes taking notes easier and more efficient.

    It's a bit pricey, but this tool is amazing. This pen is great for drawing on the iPad Pro. Combined with the amazing sensitivity of the screen, you can get an insane amount of details while drawing. It's very accurate. You almost forget that you're using a digital tool.

    The Apple Pencil will not disappoint! It works very smoothly with the iPad Pro and there are many great sketching and drawing program apps available online, both for free and for low cost, that allow for great sketching results on the iPad. The Apple Pencil is well worth the price.

    Love using the pen with my iPad. I had one that I lost so this was a replacement. Well as it always happens after I got this one and used it I found the old one so now I have two which is ok.

    My son, a graphics designer, gave me a quick demo tracing a photo across multiple layers and pen/brush colors and thicknesses. I was astounded! I am not as artistic as he is but my technical drawings and collaboration tools will be served well by the pencil/iPad combo.

    Makes life a little easier for people who don't have a lot of use of their hands like my wife does. Just don't drop it, as you will need to change out the tips as they will be rendered useless. Otherwise, this is an excellent item to own

    I am working on going paperless or at least being able to sign agreements and contracts on screen. I’ve only used the pencil twice but it looks like it will be just what I needed. I’m not an artist, so I won’t be using it for drawing.

    Got one for my daughter, she loves it. Draws on her iPad all the time with it. Great gift. Will likely buy the 2nd gen at some point because of the features, but for now, for her first one, this is awesome.

    Love it. It's battery life could be a little better and it seems to use battery power even if it isn't being used, but I think that's because it is maintaining a Bluetooth connection. Very good tracking on the iPad Pro 10.5, virtually zero lag for drawing and writing.

    It's a great pencil. I am a graduate student, and I have a lot of homework. I use the pencil and a note app to do homework, and it is awesome, way much better than writing on a paper. I would recommend it to everyone who has an ipad.

    neat add on for anyone who has an ipad. handy for writing notes, or drawing. Ive used it a couple times since I got it. I just wish the otter box case had a built in holder for it. I might have to DIY something

    I had gone back and forth in the past (years ago) wondering if I should purchase an Apple Pencil. Ultimately, I am so happy that I decided to purchase one, finally! I started back getting into drawing -- it's very therapeutic for me -- and using the Apple Pencil on one of the iPad drawing apps has been great. The Pencil is so smooth and has absolutely no lag-time or delay. It writes exactly like a physical pen. I enjoy drawing various things (such as Nintendo characters; portraits; etc.). The Apple Pencil was a great purchase for me. Highly recommend for any artists or writers out there! Or just anyone who wants to write things/draw using it.

    I love the Apple Pencil. 1. You don't have to use your finger... meaning you won't get finger prints all over your screen. 2. If you like to draw on your iPad, it is so precise compare to using your finger! Great accessory to have if you have 12.9 inch iPad Pro!

    The Apple Pencil is an absolute must if you have an iPad. We just purchased a home and filling out the documents and sending them back was soo easy with the Apple Pencil. Also great for taking notes, doodling, etc

    The Apple Pencil is the ultimate add on to go with your new iPad. It is incredibly responsive and provides a level of control when working in art type applications that you just can't get with your finger.
