    Apple pencil works great, holds a charge for a long time and charges back up very quickly. Just wish it had a clip or something to hold it and so it doesn't roll so easily.

    Best Stylus

    I honestly bought this more as a toy since I have never really bought or used a stylus before. Although I am fully invested into the Apple ecosystem, and have always primarily used Apple tablets, and phones, I have used Samsung's Notes series of phones. The stylus in the Note series always seemed like a good idea, but was something that I never really got into the habit of using. The Pencil on the other hand turned out to be something that I use almost on a daily basis. I use it for note taking, doodling ideas for work, and for some art apps like Pigment. It has some nice heft to it and feels nice in the hand. Battery life is tremendous, and love that it shows the battery level as a widget on the iPad. When you do need to charge it, you can either charge it with a regular lightning cable using the adapter that comes in the box with the Pencil, or you can plug it into the bottom of the iPad. I was very hesitant to using the iPad to charge it, but now almost exclusively use that method. It's easy, and extremely quick to charge from 10%-100%. This is a great tool to have with your iPad Pro. Almost a requirement for most people even if you don't consider yourself a stylus person.

    My wife & daughter really pushed me to get this Apple Pencil for my new iPad. Both use their pencils everyday. It writes smoothly & everyday I discover something new it can do. The battery is lasting a long time & it charges back up in minutes! Feels well made. Good weight & feel.

    The Apple pencil I first thought of buying later but I saw this one with the deal at Best Buy, so bought it immediately along with the iPad Pro tablet. The Best part is its battery, the pencil can be charged either by the wall charger or by the iPad Pro. It is the best while it is used for writing the handwritten notes in iPad Pro and also for the sketch app. Awesome product/ add on for iPad Pro.

    This Apple Pencil makes me productive on taking notes at work and feels premium in the hand plus it charges fast. It’s a little glossy the 2nd generation is more matte finish and feels more like a pencil but i bought this so I can pass it down to my fathers iPad 7 generation and I just gifted my nephew the Mini 5 which Best Buy price match thank you .

    As a Realtor, I need to communicate quickly and clearly with Sellers, Agents and Contractors.. The Apple Pencil, Combined with the App Notability has saved trip, time & tons of paper.. Pencil might seem expensive, but used in a professional sense, paid for itself the first day...Consider the UAG iPad Pro cover, it holds the pencil in place & works well with the iPad(cover has a great warranty too)

    One of the main reasons for my purchasing the iPad Pro was for the Apple Pencil. There are various graphic apps available for it, In each case, the features can be adjusted to suit your needs. Not only that, but it’s pressure senstive! However, it is better than pencil to paper for the ease at which one can correct mistakes and utilize peripheral materials along with it.

    It's the Apple Pencil, you know how it works. It only works with the iPad Pro models and it does what Apple says. The precision of the pencil is amazing but don't expect to feel like a pencil and paper. Charging is weird (people will nit-pick) with the pencil sticking out from the lightning port of the iPad but it's only for a few minutes with how quickly it charges. Only gripe is how expensive it is.

    Bought this with the Apple iPad in order to make grading easier since students can only submit assignments electronically due to the pandemic. Very easy to use and works very well. Holds charge for a very long time. I suggest possibly buying a paper feel screen protector so that the pencil does not slide so much when using.

    I have both a Pony Stylus and the Apple Pencil. The stylus works in a pinch but is no match for the Apple Pencil. Working with the Procreate drawing app as a newb makes digital art easier to use on an iPad; very precise. The price point is high but what do you expect from Apple? And you pay for what you get. An excellent product.

    If you have an iPad Pro, the Apple Pencil is a MUST! I use the pencil to take notes in all of my college courses and it works flawlessly. Just like writing notes with a pen and paper, the apple pencil works the same. There is zero noticeable lag between the pencil and the device. It writes smoothly with and without a screen protecter. I would definitely buy again.

    The Apple Pencil is very light, it fits perfectly in your hand with ease of use. It writes smoothly and is a great compliment with the iPad Pro, you have to purchase both together. Only downside in my opinion is that besides it's awesomely sleek look, it's a bit slippery. Problem is solved by putting on the rubber from a led pencil for better grip. I tend to have clammy hands which is why it felt slippery at times.

    Currently use the 2018 iPad Pro for both work and graduate school. The Apple Pencil has made it possible to take notes in meetings/class, annotate PDF's, highlight textbooks, and it feels great in my hand. The battery will last for days and charges in just minutes from the iPad or a lightning charger. I do not see any cons with the Apple Pencil, it just works, and works great!

    This Pencil is a must for any iPad Pro user! It easily pairs and charges with iPad or can be charged with USB charger and holds a charge for several days. It really expands functionality of the iPad Pro...I usually use my Pencil to take notes which are converted into text but also great for drawing and navigating on device. I would highly recommend this to any iPad Pro user and would purchase again.

    Love to use with my iPad Pro 10.5 I don’t use it as much as a student would, so my battery stays charged for a pretty long time. But nice to add comments to recipes or notes because of fine point, much better than a stylus. Purchased a protective skin for it on Amazon, fits perfect, an doesn’t feel like it will slip out of your hand.
