    The Pencil is the reason I bought a new iPad

    I wasn't interested in an iPad upgrade until I tried the Pencil in the Apple Store. It allows for scary-good precision when writing and drawing, and the pressure sensitivity that allows you to shade is mind-blowing. Sometimes it's hard to remember you're on a computer rather than paper. A must-have accessory for all iPad Pros.

    This is an overall good product. It's as simple as plugging it into your iPad and press okay to connect. Notes app works like a charm. Once you connect you can use the pen just like you would use your finger. It is however, somewhat pricey but so far its good.

    Although I feel the apple pencil is pricey, it works great for its intended purpose. For those that like making quick sketches on the go, this is great.

    At first, I thought the new iPad Pro came with the pen, but then I was made aware that it doesn't. Having to spend 100 extra dollars seemed unfair at the time , but this pen made every single dollar worth it and is truly something you need to use the iPad to its full capabilities! I would highly recommend this to anyone.

    I purchased the Apple Pencil for some work that I do that involves a lot of mapping - it requires a lot of smaller detail work that cannot be achieved using just fingers on a touch screen. The Apple Pencil easily catches the smallest details and has made my work easier and less time consuming. Definitely recommend.

    Pencil works beautiful with the iPad the only complaint so far is gripping it is slippery sometimes battery life its outstanding needs more compatible range of applications to work with and a rubber gripping area will be excellent or an adapter for such purpose everything else design look feel color and weight are outstanding.

    I bought the Apple Pencil today not really expecting it to perform the way it did. Yes it's an Apple product, however we know that sometimes that doesn't matter, in this instance this product, was extremely responsive and easy to use. I am loving it, it's literally like writing with a regular pen and paper!!

    I got the larger iPad Pro and Apple Pencil at the same time last year and I have a feeling they'll be a staple in my bag of tools for a long time. I use it for drawing and sketching in different apps and the pencil feels really good as it moves across the screen. Pressure sensitivity is nice and it charges quickly.

    Love the sensitivity of the pencil. If you like drawing and sketching this is a must for you. Although the pencil does need to be charged and this is done by plugging it into your iPad or iPhone or the included adapter for your lightning cord. I downloaded the ArtRage app and the pencil works exceptional with it.

    Great pencil for taking notes, no lagging

    This pencil works very well with no lagging when taking notes. I am yet to experience battery issues with it. I usually charge it on my Ipad before i go to class because i use it more for my class notes. It is really useful, i like the efforts apple put in this pencil to make sure it delivers as expected. I bought a different pencil initially but it was lagging and got me frustrated all the time. This the best pencil i ever used. Price is an issue though

    Well.... considering this is the only pencil that works for some iPads... I guess i'll give it four stars, but there are definitely some design flaws, such as having to plug it directly into the iPad to charge. Seems like it's going to break if it gets bumped at all. WORKS really well, just functionally in terms of design not the best.

    Great product to go along with my iPad Pro! I’m using it with Notes and One Note on documents ive scanned into my device. The charge lasts plenty long enough and the responsiveness is the best for the price! Taking notes is a essential part of my work flow. Note 8 for my phone and IPad Pro for my tablet,

    Better than a stylus

    I got this Apple Pencil for my iPad Pro. This pencil is way way better than using a stylus. More precise. Easy to use. The pencil connects via Bluetooth to the iPad Pro. I turn my Bluetooth off when I don't need it. So each time I want to use the pencil, I have to 'pair' it with the iPad. A minor inconvenience.

    If you have an iPad Pro, you need the Apple Pencil. It really rounds out the experience and provides precision input and lifelike writing, drawing, painting, and sketching capabilities to the iPad. You'll never need a notebook again! It is simply so natural and accurate, it makes what you're working on fun!

    This is the tool for iPad Pro. I wasn't sure how useful it would be, as I'm not really into drawing. I find I use it all the time. It saves on smudging up the screen with finger prints. It's incredibly accurate. I bought a case to hold it, one that is part of the iPad case itself, which I find very useful.

    At first I was looking at the second generation Apple pencil, but I realized it was not compatible with the ipad I have. I purchased this one instead and I am very glad I did. I use it for taking notes and sketches. I think it completes the ipad experience!

    I was a surface pen user before and I must say this Apple Pencil works amazingly well with the iPad Pro. I was hesitant at first looking at videos but its all about the application people use for the Pencil or Pen. Surface pen has its advantages with the built in eraser; however, I don't miss the Surface Pen at all!

    Love the easy of use of the Apple Pencil. It makes taking notes, editing any document or image is a breeze. Only downside I wish they worked on the phones as well. It has a nice weighted feel. Feels very comfortable!
