    This pen is awesome to use with all the drawing and coloring apps on my iPad! Pair it with one of the screen protectors that has a paper consistency and it’s just like a little notebook!

    I have owned this for almost a year. It took me a few months to really use it but it is the best thing I could’ve purchased. I use it much more than I thought I would. I have had no problems with the pencil.

    I never would've thought that I would pay $100 for a pencil, but this has been the most useful tool for me in college. I take all my notes on my iPad using this and the accuracy is stunning. It feels like a real pencil/pen.

    If you are buying an iPad pro you have to get this tool. I'm an educator and this has made my life a lot easier. Writing with this versus fingers is no competition. I know it is expensive but you already spent $1,000. Don't skimp out.

    Absolutely the best stylus I've used. Extremely comfortable and works flawlessly, made drawing feel less like a chore and more like the hobby I love.

    If you own the ipad pro this is a must buy! This is like the pros robin to its batman, it does everything you need it to and is very responsive. Feels as if you were writing and drawing with an actual pencil on paper, thus the name apple pencil.

    Best Option for Apple

    Best Buy was incredibly helpful in my purchase. I loved the compare items option before actually making the purchase! I bought this for my iPad for school and note taking; I do not regret at all. I definitely recommend for any other student debating the purchase; it is more than worth it. I compared with other off-brand products, but I ultimately decided to go with the Apple pencil (even though a little more expensive) because I read the reviews and how the synchronization with the iPad is the best option. Best Buy also made the picking up easy as well. I chose to pick up at the store, and I just had to show my ID and they had it out within 2 minutes to my car and I was out.

    Apple Pencil, works as advertised. Did I need it? Probably not. One thing I would like to have seen, was a pocket clip? If you set pencil on a table, it may roll on you. Also the little round cover, and charging adapter, can easily be lost. Since you have to remove, and replace them, when charging. Just my thoughts, it does not impede, the performance of the pencil.

    It took a while for me to decide on this purchase because I just couldn't justify the cost, but I haven't regretted it at all. I use it mostly with Procreate and it works wonderfully. Haven't stopped carrying a sketch pad just yet but who knows.

    I purchased it to use with IPad (6th gen). Remove the rear cap for lightning charging and Bluetooth needs to be on in the Pad for connection. Battery seems to be long. A little bit pricy as ususal Apple.....

    I bought this to accompany my iPad Pro. While I don't draw or sketch with it, I find myself using it frequently to hand write notes and annotate in iBooks. It has very good battery life and charges very quickly, which are both added bonuses.

    I like drawing, so after buying the iPad Pro I was tempted to try the pencil. I purchased one of this drawing apps and started drawing! It is great, it can be very precise. Electronic drawing now becomes an option for my artwork portfolio.

    Of course you have to have a pencil.

    Of course you have to have a pencil. For those of us with big fat fingers or those of us over 50 and our eyesight is failing, having a pencil dinner and gives us reassurance and makes it very easy to point and click and make things work.

    I love the new IPad Pro it’s thin light weight, and over all an improvement from the other ones. It has a better camera, more options, it has the finger print scanner. I’m having a great time learning new things everyday.
