    Really enjoy using the Apple Pencil for note taking. Tired of all the loose paper notes, and decided to try this after purchasing new iPad Pro. Really writes like an actual pencil. Charging up is not a problem either. Definitely suggest purchasing a sling to hold the pencil though so it doesn't get lost.

    I have used other styluses before, but none can compare to how well this works. I bought it to use with the new iPad Pro 9.7 - no lag at all on the screen! it's like writing with pen and paper! It works flawlessly.

    The pencil really keeps the screen clean. It pairs easy by just plugging it into the power supply of the iPad. It charges quick. It makes it very easy to highlight words on a pdf. I enjoy it a lot!

    This is my third Apple Pencil. Not that I lost any, just wanted to have some stationed where I use the pencil the most. Very precise control on the iPad Pro. A bit on the pricey side, but it's Apple!

    Easy to use and works great with iPad. I personally use it for marking up documents and drawing, and the pencil is sensitive to pressure and angle like a real pencil. Would recommend.

    If you have the latest iPad this pencil is a great addition. It’s great for notetaking, especially as a student. Also, great for people who enjoy drawing and want to try digital art.

    This is my first time using this pencil and I haven't had any problems with it. It was easy to synchronize to my iPad and use. Haven't had any issues. I must admit that it is expensive in my opinion.

    Just like anything apple makes this pencil is just as good. Easy to use and very accurate. Use it to write notes and photo editing. Only complain is there's no way to attach it to the ipad itself for safe keeping.

    Best one I've tried. No lags, the sensors are great. Only thing is it's hard to get a good grip on the pencil. It's very slick. Internet shows people taking apart real pens to put the grip on it. Be aware some iPad cases block the pencil from connecting completely. Which gets annoying until you find the right case

    Was very apprehensive of getting this as I was confident that your fingers were enough. While I still maintain that notion, having the pencil for some tasks that I've started using more has been awesome. Drawing on the iPad it way easier with the pencil and the wrist rejecting is outstanding. Hand written notes, drawings to explain items to students, and being able to still text while wearing thick winter gloves are all reasons I'm glad to have invested in the pencil. I've even taken to writing texts instead of typing. It's a great tool if you really need it. If you get it just because it's cool you'll have spent money on a paperweight after a month. Buy it because you have a need for it and it will pay for itself.

    Well, it works, but there is no way to keep track of the tiny parts. Dumb design. I would only recommend it because there is no alternative except your fingers. I hear the next version will have something to hook them on. i have already lost the cap, and any minute i will probably lose the charger.

    As close to a pencil/pen as I've used and very nice feel compared to other options out there. Writing on glass takes a little getting used to. Battery life seems solid. Should sell with a stand of some sort (like Wacom offers). Would have been brilliant if they modeled it like a #2 pencil so it won't roll around as much.

    Easy to use and extremely useful tool. Grabbed this with a 12.9 iPad Pro, and it has been a hit for me. Paired this with Notability App, for both MacOS and iOS, and syncing across multiple devices.

    Generally a great addition to the iPad

    Using the Apple Pencil with my iPad Mini 5 is generally enjoyable. It has a little weight to it, so it glides smoothly and and feels very fluid. I like being able to handwrite on my iPad and having it convert it to typed text. I have had some trouble with mine, and I'm not sure if it's the Pencil, my iPad, or the apps on my device. It will occasionally break connection with my iPad, and I usually have to reconnect the bluetooth. Sometimes I'll have to do this multiple times. I have tried changing out the tips (you get an additional one in the box), but that didn't help. Fortunately, Apple does cover this as part of Apple Care on your iPad, so if you are considering buying an iPad and Apple Pencil at the same time, consider getting Apple Care as well.
