    Great tool if you have the iPad Pro. I work in the corporate world and it's so easy to take notes if you like handwriting. It also makes most games easier to play instead of using your fingers.

    The pencil is a great add to the ipad pro. I especially like the Nebo software with the pencil. Allows cursive to text, equations input, diagrams, and sketches. Great productivity tool and its fun too.

    I purchased this Apple Pencil (1st Generation) for my Sweetheart and she really loves it. She uses it every day. It holds a charge very well and works perfectly.

    Took me a while to learn the ins & out of using the pen. The sleek design is great for use and writing however I would say it’s a little of an annoyance trying to keep track of all the parts able to be disconnected as they are so small.

    I did not think that I would use the pencil much, but I use it for everything. I do 95% of my navigating with the pencil. Note taking is easy and accurate. If your on the fence about getting it - go for it.

    I really wanted the magnetic pen, but of course it’s not available for this iPad. Once I started using it I realized it stores just as good as the magnetic one. The precision is great.

    My daughter loves to use this to take notes and draw on her IPad. A bit more expensive than competitors but it’s a quality Apple product that’s easy to use.

    Moving from the original Surface Pen to an Apple Pencil was a great transition in most regards. I will admit that the battery life is a bit underwhelming, but it charges quickly and with relative ease. I will be comparing a new mode of the Surface Pen in the near future, but the Pencil will be hard to beat.

    Awesome addition to my iPad 7th Gen for school. It makes taking notes so much easier and is extremely more comfortable than the lesser priced alternatives.

    I love using the Apple Pencil compared to a traditional stylist because a lot of the apps offer more functionality when using it instead with a stylist. I personally enjoy using it for just about ever function.

    The Apple Pencil works great and recharges quickly when plugged into the iPad Pro. It needs to be plugged into the iPad Pro every time the iPad is rebooted to pair the pencil and the iPad. I wish this wasn't necessary, but it can be done quickly (3-4 seconds) and is completely automatic once it is plugged in.

    Still learning how to use the pencil. It is nice instead of using your finger especially if you have a tendency to fat finger while typing like I do.

    Purchased this for my wife to use with her iPad Pro. She works in real estate, so she uses it to clients can sign documents. Also adds a cool factor to the whole process. If you have a real use for it, well worth the money. Don’t know if the casual user would see a benefit in this product.

    I am having so much fun discovering all the things the Apple Pencil can do. I am using it to write, draw and just as a stylist point to what I what to do next on my IPad. This was a very good investment for me.

    Sleek and light weight. The problem I have is with the end cap and plugging it into the charger port. Easy to lose cap and awarkward to have it hanging out the bottom of the tablet. Add extra cap or create a way to keep it attached to pen when charging.
