I mainly purchased the Apple Pencil to do quick, color sketches on my iPad Pro. It serves this purpose beautifully!
The pencil is very responsive, and feels so familiar and comfortable in the hand. I highly recommend it!

Like most Apple products, it's not the utmost best in the world, but it is the best at delivering on what it promises to do. I highly recommend that anyone needing a reliable (emphasis on the word, 'reliable') tablet with writing functionality would steer away from Microsoft Surface products and grab one of these: Though they (Surface Pro Line) may look prettier, there's still too many reports and complaints (myself being among those who've experienced these problems first-hand) about delayed latency, touch screen functionality, battery life, and other malfunctions which one shouldn't have to deal with after purchasing a premium/flagship product. That said, the Apple Pencil looks goofy but its proven more reliable than Microsoft Surface Pro's pen tablets.

I bought the Apple pencil to use with lightroom on my tablet it works very well when it stays synced. It has to be re-synced every time I shut down my tablet. I have also tried it on two different tablets and seems to do the same thing. When it's up its great.
Also kind of pricey for an accessory

I bought this when I bought the 12.9" iPad Pro. It works great for drawing and doodling on all the artist apps from apple. Love how it charges right on your iPad if your not able to plug in into an outlet. Great pen.

Had it almost a year and works great! I had to trade in one that was refurbished for a new one and it’s amazing! It’s quick to connect, stays connected, charges well, the touch sensitivity is good.

I bought a new Ipad, (not a pro), last year and I was happy it could use the series 1 pencil. I love it. I think it's time to change the tip though. I use it alot for notes.

I bought the iPad Pro just to use the Apple Pencil while creating mockups for my clients and this really comes in handy! It's cut my time in half and I'm able to bring a better visual to my clients while using this vs drawing it out by hand to show the clients. If you have a pro and create, you might wanna look at getting one. It's well worth it!

I primarily bought this as a digital sketchbook as I read up a lot on the differences between this, Microsoft, Wacom, and Apple drawing products. I could not be happier with my purchase. Super responsive and stable.

If you don’t have this powerful tool yet you are missing out. The Apple Pencil has changed the way I am able to use my iPad Pro. It has completely replaced pen/pencil and paper for me along with many other things

My only wish is that I had bought it sooner. It is an amazing tool. Hand got a little tired at first when taking notes with GoodNotes app but now after using pencil regularly it doesn't. Highly recommend!

I purchased this because I purchased an Ipad Pro. It's very good but I just don't use it much. That's my fault, I'm sure, because I've struggled to find Apps that I can use with the pencil. But for the right person, with the right Apps, I'm sure it's great. But it is expensive.

Works great on the iPad and allows for something different when coloring, drawing and writing. I like using it rather than my finger for more precise strokes.

Apple pen is almost like writing on paper but with so many more options. You are able to do variety of things you cant on a computer especially once you download apps specific to what you wish to do.
