Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's an expensive accessory but all the reviews I looked up said Apple Pencil works best for art apps and drawing on iPad. I have not been disappointed. I've had it a few months now and it's worked fine with anything, writing and drawing or just using as a stylus. Keep in mind some apps work better with Pencil, so the best performance is with Apps that were made to work with Pencil. The battery does not take long to charge and does not seem to deplete super fast when sitting idle. I notice that if I leave Bluetooth turned on (on the iPad) the Pencil will automatically connect when it's nearby, ready to go (after the initial pairing in Bluetooth settings).

I read mixed reviews on the pencil but still decide to try it. It has great response with the iPad Pro Apple apps. The feel is equally distributed. I love the slick finish of the pencil. It stays charged good. I would recommend this Apple Pencil.

Bought this for my daughter and she loves it. She uses it for drawing apps on her iPad and it works great and very intuitive....yet pricey.

The pencil allows a lot more precise interaction with the surface. Time will tell just how durable It is. On an almost flat surface the pencil is weighted just enough off center to stop rolling within a turn. If there is any slope al all, look for it on the floor. For a hundred bucks, I hope it is durable enough to survive an occasional drop. One other concern... I haven't figured out how to manage the battery. You get a notice at 5% left but that isn't much help if you need the pencil. You can quick charge it by plugging into the iPad lightning connector, but there is no way know the status of the charge (at least that I have figured out yet). I'm reluctant to use the iPad connector for charging unless I'm sure I can protect the the 6+ inch lever from getting bumped and damaging the iPad.

I'm not basing my feelings on the new iPad/Pencil, I'm basing it on the fact that someone at Apple not only came up with the idea of attaching a 9" narrow object to the end of a 10" tablet via a lightning connector and thought it would turn out well, but their manager approved it and it ended up in production. I would love to see the numbers from Apple on how many of these things were broken off. Ok, now my review. It's a great solid product, accurate, speed is fine, but a bit heavy. The pencil should mimic the feeling of a pencil or brush or charcoal pencil and to me, it's much heavier than any of those in reality. I didn't experience any "hand fatigue", but I'm sure that if I had to take notes with the device for an extended period, I would. That being said, the new Apple Pencil (only compatible with the new iPad), seems much better. It has the flat edge and it charges wirelessly.

Bought this so I could take handwritten notes in my iPad Pro. It's is very responsive and I love the pressure sensitivity. Setup was also extremely easy. All I had to do was plug it into the iPad and I was ok and running in seconds.

The Apple Pencil is a must have if you have an iPad. I use it to take notes in and it’s extremely responsive. I haven’t had any issues with it all and a full charge lasts a long time.

I do enjoy this pen a lot more than an off brand that I used beforehand. Charges fast and stays charged longer than I expected it to. Feels nice to draw with.

Battery is great. it charges fast with iPad's charging port. really helpful when pen is discharge and you need it to draw or take notes. It is great with accuracy. i love this pen. I moved from Surface to iPad Pro and i like it so far.

My husband wanted to try a different approach to his sketches- so instead of paper and pencil- we bought the ipad pro and apple pencil. He LOVES it. He can get different degrees of shading with it. No lag. Quick charges. Very happy with this.

The appple pencil is one thing I didn't know I needed until I got one. It's light, the battery lasts forever on a single charge and makes task easier and fun. The charger attachment is small and easy to lose so keep in a safe place.

Best drawing tablet and pen period. Nothing compares to quality, accuracy, feel, ease of use, you name it;; this product out shines all other drawing tablets hands down (used them all including the high-end way more expensive).

Very sleek and easy to use. Works great on my daughters iPad and she loves it. Charges fast so you can use it again in no time at all. Makes working on your iPad easier.

They love them. Charge when attached to iPads. Used for a lot of drawing on iPads. Just for iPad Air four or newer and many pro models.

There are a lot of stylus' out there but none truly compare with this. It feels so natural writing with the apple pencil and the pressure sensitivity gives you all the more control.

Bought the Apple Pencil for my wife to use with my iPad Pro 9.7". She is into photo editing and sketching, so the pencil was a perfect fit. It's incredible how accurate the device is and how it almost feels like drawing/painting/sketching/etc.

This is totally worth the money! Very easy to use and the battery life is great! The only minor downfall is it is very small so it is easy to lose. Other than that, great product!

Having the apple pencil has been amazing. It is amazingly sensitive but responsive. The charging and pairing system is a bit odd, be careful not to snap your pencil. Otherwise a useful and great tool.

I was not sold on the idea of spending a hundred dollars on a fancy stylus but my daughter says it is incredibly accurate and functional

Apple makes a great sylus but always at a pretty steep price. Will say it has a good weight quality and glides across sceen with ease and therefore makes the price point easier to swallow.
