    I bought this because I was in school and had been using my iPad to take notes but I needed to be able to draw charts and diagrams in my notes to help me learn and this has been the best purchase. The battery life is a lot better than expected.

    I was deciding between the apple pen and a regular (read cheap) stylus, but I am happy that I chose the apple pen. It connects easily to the iPad through bluetooth, charges really fast, and is very handy when it comes to handwriting/drawing.

    Love this. After buying and returning the Surface Pro, I went with the iPad Pro and Apple Pencil and its so much nicer to draw with. The notetaking hasn't been attempted, only wanted it for art purposes. Besides, I don't take notes, I'm an adult, man!.

    Had to find out the hard way that it is not compatible with the iPad 5th generation. I asked the sale person and was informed that it worked for the 5th gen. I ended up upgrading my iPad to the 9th gen and it works amazing and feels like an actual pencil.

    I purchased the Apple pencil as a gift. I was a bit apprehensive but she really wanted the pencil. She has been using it regularly and I have tried it too. It works phenomenally well and no longer am apprehensive, rather I now want one!

    In Procreate, Evernote, and Sketches, the Apple Pencil proved to be more accurate than the FiftyThree Pencil, most notably in making more precise, detailed

    This pen does exactly what I need it to do. Remember it's not a spaceship or a rocket so don't expect it to blow you out of this world. It's a pencil for an iPad!!! It writes and draws...for those who use photoshop and illustrator this will be a great tool.

    Was really excited to try out the pencil and it did not disappoint. Feels amazing in your hand, quick to charge. I use it to primarily mark up PDFs for work, so I can't really speak to how it functions for a more artistic perspective. But I really love it.

    I don't use the pencil much but my daughter likes it use it to draw on my iPad Pro. Works well and charges quickly. The reason for the 3 star rating was the price. The cost is twice as much as it's competitors. I would only recommend it ti someone if they really needed it, otherwise don't bother.

    Works great, just wish there was a way to register ipen with device or a way to track it for added security. Not just only if your with in about 20 feet. It is WAY too easy to steal.

    The iPad is transformed into a magical piece of glass that can do anything! Apps are unlimited. Drawing, coloring, etc. I got this for my little niece and she loves it. iPad is 10000% more enjoyable!

    I love it. Writing feels natural and smooth. I love writing with the apple pencil better than an actual pencil. The battery lasts long enough for a work/school day. Really recommended for those who love to have organized and clean notes

    I love my Apple Pencil.i use it mostly for drawing and I have nothing negative to say about it.it is a little costly but I purchased mine with a $20 off rewards from Best Buy. If you enjoy drawing or just doodling on your IPad Pro this is a must have.
