One of the best things I bought in last couple of years. Got me back into drawing. I swear I’m better looking when I’m holding it, but wife says still ugly I don’t know.

I’m a professor and this Apple Pencil has been hugely important to my teaching because I can create videos of the more difficult concepts on my powerpoints for my students to review on their own time.

It works so well…better than I imagined it would. Writing with it feels like writing on paper when I have a matte screen protector on my iPad.

I bought this because a Best Buy associate suggested it. I have to say I can't believe how much it feels like a real pencil. I also have a surface pro and I can honestly say that this product is way ahead of the surface pen.

Before I bought this pencil, I doubted myself and I thought the price is toooooo high for a pencil. However, after using it these months, I found it totally worths the money, but you need to protect it well.

My wife uses it and apparently feels so much better than the knockoff she had before. She uses it to draw and says it really works well.

Bought the Apple Pencil series 2 and didn’t know it didn’t work with the lower end iPads. Traded it in for this one and it works great!

Bought the iPad 2018 with the hopes of one day adding the Apple Pencil. Scraped enough pennies together and now I’m drawing as much as possible with my Pencil. Gotta love the tools of today!

The pencil works like a charm on my iPad Air 3rd generation. Especially on the drawing app Procreate, it helps out a lot and I would recommend this to anyone.

I'm really impressed with the Apply Pencil. I have used a Wacom tablet for years and always dreamed of working directly on the screen. This tool has brought that dream to life. It also is like sketching with a real pencil too.

Great pencil. Connects easy to the iPad. Hard to charge but bought bricks so could charge in the wall instead of through the iPad.

The Apple Pencil is all that and a bag of chips. I have wanted a note taking and drawing tool better than my finger. The Pencil is it. I am eagerly awaiting better integration in apps and more apps compatible with it.

The Apple Pencil is a must for anyone who has an iPad Pro. I have used many tablets from many manufacturers's, from Dell to a Surface Pro 4, and nothing comes close to the functionality that the Apple Pencil adds.

Works great, despite its first-gen limitations. Not sure if it’s better than the less-expensive knock offs, but it’s definitely reliable and works as advertised.
