    Apple Pencil vs. Pencil by 53

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I am thoroughly satisfied with the Apple Pencil. I used Pencil by 53 for quite awhile (because I use Paper by 53) before getting the Apple Pencil, and although Pencil by 53 looks great and has the nifty eraser, I like my Apple Pencil MUCH better. Unlike the Pencil by 53, the Apple Pencil is a fine point that is truly pressure sensitive, able to create wide strokes with direct pressure as well as when slanted. The best part is that the nib is more durable on the Apple Pencil. I was going through so many replacement nibs for Pencil by 53. They're soft and rubbery. The Apple Pencil also feels really good in my hand, nice weight and length.

    Works flawlessly. I've now gone paperless! I'll never go back to writing notes on paper. It's weight and balance is perfect. It holds it's charge for a long time and recharges quickly when it needs it.

    Using this product has made me love taking notes and drawing again. It’s ease of use matches everything that Apple creates. Wouldn’t be disappointed if the price came down a little though.

    My wife is using it a lot to write notes on her documents, works flawlessly, charges fast and is comfortable to use, one small issue is the grip, as is too smooth to get a hold of it for a long time.

    Far better and improved than stylus provided with phone. Good to have it but not a "must". Perfect for drawing sketches, taking a note or scribble during leisure time. A gripper can make it more interesting... can't stop expecting!!

    Works amazing for notes. Flows smoothly across iPad 12.9 screen. Not to heavy. I would only recommend getting something to keep it from rolling off the table. The Battery charge lasts for hours and quick charges in minutes.

    The apple pencil itself works great and accurate, but be very careful not to loose the charging cap as it doesn’t have anything to hold it when you are charging the pencil. I bought myself a silicone sleeve that holds the cap and the sleeve gives the pencil a better grip because it is kind of slippery when you hold it.

    works very well with new 10.5" ipad pro. not sure if the 20ms is active on the beta yet, but seems fairly accurate, but i do notice some lag when moving quickly. its completely cylindrical, so storing it can be a problem as it rolls off things, and easily ends up behind things, and between cushions. Needs a tiny speaker that you can ping.

    I love using the pen! I like to do various color by number apps and it works great with these as well as all other apps and you can put it in your iPad to charge and takes like 10-15 seconds and ready to go again’

    #1 thing is the quick charge feature. Numerous times I have walked into a meeting and the pen was dead. Plug it into the iPad and within 30 seconds there is enough charge for an hours worth of writing. Very responsive.

    The Apple Pencil is the only one available for the iPad Pro, but it's all you need. Lightweight, feels good in the hand, and most of all, works just as promised. Great precision and sensitivity for light or bold drawing strokes.

    Great product...... expensive stylus. I read the reviews prior to purchasing but wanted a functional stylus for my new IPad Pro 9.7. I also own a Samsung Note 2014 Tablet which comes with a stylus. I enjoy using it so much, wanted to have a similar experience with my Apple Tablet. I'm pleased with my purchase no regrets. I would recommend to a friend.

    The pencil works well with the iPad Pro 9.7 that I have and the battery time is decent. Charging the pencil looks weird and always gives me the feeling that the pencil will break off the port. Wish it was magnetic and slightly cheaper but a worthy purchase if you intend to use for class notes or drawing otherwise maybe wait until a price drop.

    I have had my ipad for 2 years. I only recently found an app that really needed the pen. Now, I am using it for multiple apps. Charge lasts a long time. Wish the ipad gave me a better alert when the charge was depleted. The only issue I have is the potential loss of the cap. I recently purchased a cap tether that works well.
