Got it for my Gen 8 2020 iPad. I am happy to charge it the old way, so this all works out well for me. I have used it a lot for drawing and writing and I like the way it feels.

I purchased the Apple Pencil for my granddaughter's 9th birthday. I also got the app Procreate. Within a couple of minutes, she was watching YouTube videos walking her thru the basics and drew for the next couple of hours. She loves it!

The Apple Pencil really feels like you're writing on paper. With the new iPad Pros there is virtually no lag. And it's super easy to pair with multiple iPad Pros. Just stick it in the the lightning port and wait a bit and you're good!

I ha even had almost every tabket stylus combo. Surface pro, Samsung tab pro, various iPads with various 3rd party stylus. This is by far the best! I was worried there was no stylus hover on the screen , but it is so accurate you don't need it!

Great addition to iPad! I use mainly with drawing programs but it works with signatures and point and click on any app. Charges quickly by plugging into iPad and lasts awhile!

Writing with the Apple Pencil is fantastic. I have used several stylists and will now gladly pay the $100 for a Apple Pencil. It mimics writing on paper so closely that I have mostly given up using pen and paper for work.

I bought the new iPad 10.5 inch and this pencil compliments it so well. My niece loves to use it for drawing as well. The design is sleek with a great battery life. I cant believe it's 30 mins of use only after 15 seconds of charging.

I like taking notes by hand sometimes. I use this with a matte screen protector and a notebook app. All three give me the feeling of a paper notebook and the experience keeps my creative juices flowing!

We use the pen to edit pictures and other art apps that wife uses on her iPad. It functions well and the battery last longer then expected. However the charging process is a little awkward because of how it sticks out from the iPad.

Great companion, just wish it had a way to clip on to your shirt or pants or to the iPad other than the lightning connector. Am also concerned that the cap will fall off and get lost...or that I'll lose the pencil since there's no way to secure it.

Apple Pencil instantly recognizes when you are pressing harder or shifting its angle. So you can vary line weight, create subtle shading, and produce a wide range of artistic effects — just like with a conventional pencil.

My daughter is really into design and drawing and this has been a perfect tool for her. It was a Christmas gift and she has been using it daily ever since with no issues.
