This product has made my job much easier. Have used a related product before and this is far superior. It connects easily, performs flawlessly, and holds a charge much longer than I would have expected.

I wasn’t sure if I was going to like the new Apple Pencil, however I ended up pleasantly surprised. It is great as a stylus when you want to use it that way. It is works great with the sketch programs that are out there. All in all it’s fun to use.

Easy to use for drawing and writing. I can easily switch it between devices. Charging fast especially important for me because I use it for school and sometimes I forgot to charge it on time.

I have had great luck with the Apple Pencil. I really like the feel of it in my hand. While it's true that it tends to roll away. It really hasn't been that bad a problem for me. It sometimes looses it's pairing but it is simple enough to repair. Highly recommend it.

It's a little pricey but worth it. A must have if you use procreate or use your ipad to take notes. It charges very quickly - I use this multiple times a day and only ever have to charge it once or twice a week.

One of the best styluses in the game. It's on the par with the note pin in my eyes but technically it's actually better. I love that you can charge it with the iPad or wire. Very versatile and precise.

I am an Apple fan. However, I find the iPad Pro 12 inch amazing to use for sketching and some design work. The pen works seamlessly with the tablet and the charge will last about a week. Awesome product, super fast, light weight, and easy to carry anywhere.

This apple pen does work great with the IPAD. I will say just make sure you purchase the right pen depending on the IPAD you do have all the information is on the back of the box. Works well and is a lot easier to use than other brand pens.

I just got it and only played with it a little bit. I was on the fence with the price, even being a “open box item” not cheap. However, it’s response and accuracy has being phenomenal. I had $15 pen prior and it was okay, but having a product meant for iPad and that syncs to it shows a big difference. Looking forward to many projects and my kids love it too. 4 stars due to price.

I have been using the pencil for about three weeks now and I can say it has a wonderful feel to it. I am not an artist or involved in any graphic programs. I find myself using it mostly to scroll through articles or use it to control drag and drop games. For the price it's nice but not a must have. If you are into drawing or graphic design programs I can see the huge benefit to this device.

The Apple Pencil, or any stylus for that matter, extends the Ipad Pro's usability by a huge margin. The Apple Pencil is exactly what you would expect from Apple - a product that is well built and screams quality while achieving the requirements of a stylus. The pencil can be used just like a normal pencil on paper with different gradients of shading and drawing possible.
Coming to the negatives, the Pencil's charging methods are somewhat weird. You either attach the pencil to the iPad or you connect it to a lightning cable through a tiny adapter that is very easy to misplace unless you're super careful. This should be changed and made a lot more convenient for users. And while the Apple Pencil is a fantastic product, I'm not really sure it warrants a price tag of $99.

For a first gen they sure got it right! I seriously can’t think of any complaint. Yes the 2nd gen is better but this is still amazing. It writes just like a pen, fast, responsive, holds a charge for a few days. Yah I would buy it again.

iPencil is the best additional accessory for the iPad Pro. It really helped me in learning many different diagrams in an advanced anatomy and physiology class with the Word app this semester. I was able to draw, erase, and re-draw diagrams I needed to know for exams.

The Apple Pencil works amazingly with the iPad. I tried a number of other styluses - some were defective and did not work with the iPad as claimed. Although a bit more expensive than other styluses, save yourself time and purchase what's best for you and the iPad.

This pen is working fine, the cap somehow got a small crack in it, but I love the feel & handling. It is great on my I pad, but it also works on my touch screen Dell computer, that’s a plus

This pencil has seriously changed the way that I take notes for college. It allows me to write quickly and keep everything organized in one place. The only drawback is the weight, otherwise it is incredibly easy to use and charges very quickly.

This pencil kinda lags a little at times, but overall it’s use is very simple. I rarely use it, so it stays charged fairly long, and it charges pretty quickly. Wished it charged magnetically instead of having to insert it into charging port. Be careful with the top, it comes off pretty easily and can get easily lost.

I haven't used the pen that much yet but find that it is definitely an asset when trying to maneuver in small areas. I used it a couple of times for a coloring app and it connects and work very easily. Easy to charge...just plug it into the ipad.
