    This works extremely well if you follow the directions. Be sure and read the manual materials. I found the YouTube videos to also =be helpful in getting the most out of the pen and the new tablet. Works well in business meetings

    This was a great gift for my fiance who already had an ipad but did not realize with notes you can use this tablet in a whole new way. This along with Notability and it opened up a whole new usage of the tablet and she loves it.

    The Apple pen is a great addition to my IPad Pro. Not only does it provide precision with its touch but it keeps my screen much cleaner. Charges very quickly and a charge goes a long way! Perfect if you like to sketch in any of the art apps. Love it!

    Close ... but needs pairing adapter to work

    Overall, the pen does exactly what it says it will do. Unfortunately, you have to buy a $9 adapter to pair this device with a 10th Generation iPad as it does not come with the $99 Apple pairing device and Best Buy does not stock this in its local stores. You have to purchase it online and it took a week for it to arrive. So, I have a pencil I can't use until I purchase a pairing adapter and wait for it to arrive. Apple knows this and deliberately left this neccessary adpater out. Shame on Apple. If you buy one, make sure you purchase the adapter at the same time.

    I am still in awe of this Pencil! It's like having a dozen different medias in one slim tool (paint, marker, pencil, pen). It is also great to use when simply navigating around the iPad in email and other non-art related apps. It is an incredible tool!

    I got the Apple Pencil because Best Buy was offering a special deal. Don't know that I would have spent the $99 to buy it otherwise. I have yet to use it to anywhere near its potential, and don't know if I ever will, but it does pair very nicely with the iPad Pro, is very precise, and I expect I will find it more valuable as I get into more things it can do for me.

    My daughter uses it more than expected. You can use it with certain apps or simply in lieu of your finger. It’s expensive, but I would recommend. FYI, you’ll definitely lose the cap, but there are inexpensive alternatives that stay connected to the pen on Amazon.

    Great Adition to the iPad Pro

    The Apple pencil compliments many apps made for the iPad pro. Unlike the iPad Air the iPad pro has a lot of use for the pencil due to the size of the screen. The sensitivity is great and it recognizes the differences between your finger and the pencil immediately.

    I am really happy I purchased the iPad pencil. So much so, I bought one for my 9 year olds iPad too. She loves to draw and loves it! Very easy to set up and use. It’s like a stylus, only much, much better. Highly recommend.

    I was back and forth between the Apple Pencil with the iPad or switching to a surface pro. But I’m glad I stayed with apple I love the apps I’ve found to use the pencil with and I’ve been able to take note and work on projects with it.

    After getting my new iPad Pro, I needed the pencil, of course! It’s great! I had to try a few apps until I found one I liked to draw with. This pencil is very responsive, doesn’t skip, and recharges in seconds. A little pricey, but worth it!

    I am still learning all the benefits of this pencil but it has already made using my iPad much smoother. Comfortable in your hand. Not a fan of the charging method, I am worried the insert will snap off.

    Best Stylus Ever

    The pencil blows away every other stylus I have used before (mostly entry level Wacom products). It is silky smooth and really feels natural. As if thats not enough, the iPad is able to easily block out my palm which makes it feel even more natural.

    I love my iPencil, I am terrified of loosing my iPencil. It needs a clip like a regular pen so that it can be more securely fastened. Also some way to attach the cap covering the charger plug would have been good. I am so worried I will loose this little piece while it charges. I love writing and drawing with it. The ability to write with a fine point really is just like using a pencil.

    Pen works fine - Apps are challenging

    The pen was a present for my wife. Pen works great if you can figure out how to make the apps work. She is a great artist but she is short on computer skills. Most full-blown drawing apps are beyond my wife's computer skill level. She is now searching for an app that is for level entry computer knowledge and still allows her to use all of the pens capabilities.

    Apple Pencil is not revolutionary, but it’s implementation is the best I’ve ever had the pleasure of enjoying. Pressure and detail are captured and displayed accurately ensuring a very smooth, pleasurable and satisfying drawing experience
