    Love the Apple Pencil! Perfect weight to be comfortable to use. Glides over the iPad with ease and doesn’t miss a dot. Love being able to take notes in meetings to print out later. No auto miscorrect here (user errors only)!

    When paired with the new iPad Pro, this is near perfect for drawing and interacting with the iPad. No pairing, no buttons. It just works. And there is almost no lag. The only thing I wish it has was the ability to act as an eraser when you turn it over (like a real pencil). But I can live with that. And the battery life is pretty good too. I charge it via the iPad and it charged quick and after a week is still nearly full.

    I love my Apple pencil that I bought at Best Buy. And even better, it was on sale! It works great with my new iPad and holds the charge for a long time, plus it charges really quickly when it runs out of power. I am very happy with my purchase.

    I bought this 1st gen Apple Pencil to go along with my new 128gb non-pro iPad (only pro models work with 2nd gen pencils) and it works great. It was easy to set up and the battery lasts a long time. I use it a couple times a day in meetings at work during the week and have only charged it right when I bought it almost a month ago. The only very minor thing that bothers me is the cap that covers the charging plug. It’s magnetic, and although I haven’t lost it yet, I could see it coming off in my backpack and probably falling out if I don’t notice it right away. There are 3rd party products you can buy on Amazon that will tether the cap to the pencil to keep them together, but I haven’t bought one yet. And with the 2nd gen pencil being out, these 1st gen pencils are a great cheaper option whether you have the pro or non-pro models of iPad.

    I bought this for my 13 year old daughter for her birthday- she is an artist. Wanted her to use this with iPad to supplement the drawing tablet she uses for her MacBook Air. This works great for her- only drawback is I never get to use my iPad any more. Hopefully she won't ask me to buy that next for her.

    I didn't really need the Apple Pencil but if I'm getting the iPad Pro I had to get the accessory. If you're into drawing/sketching then this is for you. Really neat especially with application the App Store has to offer for the Apple Pencil. The charging concept is pretty silly but it does charge really quick. If your getting this simply just to jot down notes, just get yourself a $10 stylist and save the $90 bucks. Great product if you like to draw.

    The Apple pencil is a wonderful tool to get the most out of your iPad. Whether you're using it to write/take notes or do more complex work like drawing or painting it simply works. It accurately translates your strokes precisely to the screen. I highly recommend this.

    I wanted the pencil to replace stylus. Does a great job. Use it for functional tasks. Like how quickly it charges and ease of use. I have a cover that accommodates my pencil quite nicely. Also useful for signing documents Online.

    I'm still getting used to using the pen but it works great with a variety of apps. I love being able to take quick notes on the go using the pencil. As a graphic designer, I use the Pencil for client mockups or illustrations in my designs.

    Best stylus I’ve ever owned. Straight out of the box, it synced super quick and worked beautifully with all my apps (Procreate, photoshop express, etc). As an iPad Pro owner, I wouldn’t own any other stylus. Most apps really cater to the Apple Pencil and that means special settings etc.

    The Apple Pencil is my ipads best friend. It is so smooth when working with my iPad and makes a world of a difference with note taking. If you’re getting an iPad for school, note taking, content creation i highly recommend the Apple Pencil!

    I am in love with the pencil, I think that that the pencil completes the Ipad and would now what to do without it. It makes the Ipad much more functional. I am able to write notes for school which was the biggest selling point.

    I love my Apple Pencil! While it's nifty to use its pressure sensitivity to draw in apps like Paper by 53, my primary use is for taking notes. The Pencil is fabulous for handwritten notes in apps like Notability, Whink, GoodNotes, etc. What could make it even better? A built-in solution to attach to/dock with the iPad Pro and eraser functionality that would allow one to use the "eraser" end of the Pencil to actually erase content on the device.

    Using with a paperlike screen protector. Useful with Procreate and Good notes. Hate that the pencil has to be reconnected if the device has been powered off. Quick charging is a plus. Purchasing a grip with this item is really helpful.

    Bought this as a birthday present for my son. He has really enjoyed using it. It works well with his iPad. He's always doodling and coloring something. No complaints here outside of maybe it could have been cheaper in price.

    The Apple Pencil is expensive but it’s a fantastic tool for the iPad Pro. In my opinion, don’t bother getting the Pro if you are not also buying the pencil. If you are also buying a case for your iPad Pro, i would recommend purchasing one that has a built in holder for the iPad Pencil.

    I LOVE MY APPLE PENCIL!!! It makes taking notes and writing ideas down SO SOOOO easy, and I am able to use it all day. I love how when I use it with my iPad Pro, how depending on how hard I press, it actually draws a heavier line or a lighter line depending on my pressure! AMAZING!

    This is my second Apple Pencil. They both work seamlessly. Few drops here and there but never when I'm actually engaged in work. I use it as a stylus, to draw but mostly to edit my photos in Lightroom and photoshop. It's almost like using a Wacom tablet. No regrets here. Charges fast and stays charged.
