    Smooth, but expensive, writing tool

    It's a very responsive writing tool for the iPad. My only real complaints are the price, the size (it's a bit long), and the battery drain. A special tip: Be aware there's also a spare tip and adapter plug in the box. A friend almost threw the box away not realizing there was something other than the pen in the box!

    Easy to use. Has some weight to it, which I like. Amazing how it looks on the iPad! Crystal clear and literally like writing with a pen and paper, but better!

    Great Pencil

    This pencil is kind of an over glorified stylus. But just like anything Apple, it works great. I use it with my iPad 6th gen, and it works like a charm. I have used it to make notes during glass, and honestly, it’s much better than using a notebook.

    I have enjoyed this accessory for my iPad Pro. I have always used a Galaxy Note mobile phone because of the pen/notetaking ability. The pencil is a bit bulky and pricey. If you have a keyboard cover or the like, you cannot attach the pencil to your device. Writes true to life. Great for note taking or doddling.

    The pencil responds well with a tap or press-n-hold. It's light weight and thin. I haven't tried any drawing but handwriting apps are amazing with this pencil. iOS 11 unlocks even more pencil features.

    A Great Education Tool

    I am an elementary music teacher. My classroom has an 89" flatscreen TV instead of an interactive white board which sometimes makes activities difficult. I do have an Apple TV as well. When my principal bought new iPads for the teachers I figured I would buy an Apple Pencil and try to use the iPad and Pencil together like an interactive whiteboard with my students. It has literally CHANGED EVERYTHING! It has made my life so much easier since buying it. I'm able to write on documents with my students, draw in music notation and rhythms as I need them, and write notes on the board for students. It has been a great addition to my classroom and I'm so glad I bought it!

    Very responsive and accurate. Unfortunately unless you take a lot of handwritten notes or draw a lot, there aren't enough use cases to support the price.

    The pencil is quite the versatile tool for the iPad. Drawing, sketching, water colors and even just marking up documents is effortless. Battery life satisfactory but pencil is useless if there's an update for the pencil or iPad. Won't sync until you update. In a hurry..? Sorry, no use until you update :-/

    Great. purchase for an artist, she loves it! It is easy to use, she draws her favorite Amine characters to perfection. Price is okay, but is a very expensive tool for a hobby, but it is worth it when put to use on a daily basis.

    Best Stylus for iPad Pro

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

    I've purchased many styluses (some cheap, a couple expensive) for various iPad's that I've owned and I'm never been happy with any of them. Now, I have the new iPad Pro with the Apple Pen and it is a marvel. It's responsive and easy to hold for long periods of time. I use it almost exclusively in One Note but it's worked great in other applications also. The price is about the same as another stylus that I tried and the Apple Pencil is so much better. Good battery life too and if it runs out, I can do a quick charge without a charging cable by plugging it into the iPad for a minute. Super.

    Excellent accessory. there is no discernible delay when writing notes, it's feels just like writing on actual paper. Gets good battery life, and has the ability to charge directly from the iPad itself.
