    1st Gen Apple Pencil

    The 1st Gen Apple Pencil is a great purchase for anyone who uses their iPad for drawing, painting, and even writing! My wife has been using one of these pencils ever since we bought an iPad. Charging the pencil is easy and usually takes 20 to 30 minutes to fully charge. Setting up the pencil for your iPad is straightforward and takes a minute or two. It is a very delicate device however. The first pencil we had bought stopped working after falling two feet.

    I was a bit skeptical about how it would feel to write on my iPad Pro with the Apple pencil. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. very smooth and fluid. Feels good in the hand, weighted just right. Very Happy.

    This pen works great with my iPad. It syncs easily, allows me to draw and sketch, and is great for taking notes. It also gives a much more accurate click to small icons.

    Bought this for the drawing applications, which it works very well at. I've been very surprised about how it changed the way I take notes. My only complaint is the stupid charging method. Having to have the pencil awkwardly hang off my iPad or using the silly male-to-male adapter is a pain. I would definitely buy again though.

    The Apple Pencil is a true joy to use. It’s the most accurate and responsive and best looking stylus I have ever used. Lots of fun for drawing, coloring and great for taking notes and signing documents.

    I am a casual ipad user. This pencil is used on 2 2017 models. The pencil must be plugged up into the lightening port when switching units to sync, each time. The top port cover on the pencil is tiny and easily lost(it rolls away). Buy the silicone keeper, or accessories for it( cheap price on Amazon). I use the s most for coloring and notes. If you have big fingers and tend to hit wrong keys or dont want to connect a keyboard for a quick email or text, this is a great little unit to have. Buy an ipad cover that has a slot for it, to keep it handy and safe. The tips are strong, it comes with an extra we have not needed yet. I have had it for 2 months now.

    I originally was just going to do without the pencil but felt that for note taking it would help and did it ever. I find myself always using the pencil to take notes and markup various documents and when there is free time draw. I do wish the battery on it laster slightly longer but it may throw off the weight balance.

    The Apple Pencil is simple in that it charges from your device's lightning port. I'm a bit concerned about having a long, rigid pencil hanging out the end of my iPad, so I bought a USB cord to charge my Pencil more safely.

    It does everything it should do for the ipad pro. I take all of my notes with this setup. I have tried it with numerous note taking programs. As far as artistic work, the biggest problem is my lack of talent not the stylus.

    Works great as a stylus, a little over priced to be honest that why I didn’t give it 5 stars. The battery last a while and is very quick to charge up, I do dislike the charger though, you have to plug into lighting on the iPad or use the provided adapter to use on regular lightning plug but over all it’s great!

    This pencil is amazing it has helped me with my note taking, and drawing. I do wish it had the magnetic charging but I have the iPad 8 so it is only compatible with gen 1 pencil. But for people saying they hate that they have to plug it into the iPad for charging...no. Just use and regular apple charger and use the adapter that comes with the pencil. Easy. If you have a paperlike screen protector I suggest using a pencil tip cover to protect it. But my pencil tip didn’t wear down after a month so it’s personal preference. Overall I love this pencil.

    I love the pencil for fine-tuning projects. It’s so much cleaner looking than trying to use my finger. It also is a nice pressure reliever for my hand rather than holding my finger in the pointed position.
