    I bought this Apple Pencil for my daughter and she loves its functionality and many uses with the iPad. She has been able to do many new things on her iPad thanks to the Apple Pencil.

    This is a good addition to the iPad Pro. It can be a little finicky, sometimes I have trouble getting it to connect, but works well most of the time. I'm not sure it's worth $100, but I got it basically for free during a promo.

    I don’t use the pencil for drawing, but it’s been great for note taking at work. I’m paperless now! Battery life is very good. And I’ve yet to experience any issues connecting to my iPad. Like all things apple, it just works.

    I love it! It works as a stylus and a pen. It’s perfect for note taking and doesn’t lag. The only thing that would be helpful would be a way to see the battery percentage. It only tells you when you have 5% left.

    I color everyday on my iPad and the pencil works great, I also use it on my planner and it’s so easy to write with. I can’t imagine how much better the second one is cause I love this one.

    The Apple Pencil is the best stylus type device I have used. It is extremely accurate and very easy to use. I only wish I was an artist so that I could more fully use its full potential.

    I don't know how I ever used an iPad without an Apple Pen! I am an amateur artist and the pencil has transformed my work! It holds a charge for a very respectable amount of time and takes only seconds to recharge right on the iPad.

    After much thought, I bought an Apple Pencil on sale from Best Buy to use with my iPad Pro. It was simple to set up and is a great addition to help navigate. I’m looking forward to using the pencil to help with photo editing.

    Apple is always on the cutting edge of technology and that doesn't stop with this pencil. I love it. Especially being a math teacher, being able to display and work out problems with the precision that this pencil offers is wonderful.

    I recently purchased the iPad Pro 9" and got the pencil, not sure how much I really needed it or would use it. Its a fun extra to use and occasionally free hand notes. Still exploring some of the apps available to get a little more out of it.

    Once I learned how to use it and it's capabilities with the best app, I love it. I used the app Good Notes, and well worth it. So awesome to make flashcards that you can modify without altering the original picture.

    its great stylus for drawing and if you have an app that lets you, can use the pressure sensitivity in the pencil to make some drawing without having to go into settings to change them

    It is not always the designer, nor the artist who needs to respond digitally, The everyday consumer can transmit responses in seconds with the right tools. The Apple Pencil is that tool...
