    In weighing whether to spend the extra $100 (rounded) to have this device, I decided to treat myself and go for it. Man, am I glad I did! I've only had it about three weeks but have already used it many times for taking notes while I researched things online. A must: look up the ability to split the screen on your iPad and have your note pad to one side with the web browser (or whatever you're referring to related to your notes) on the other. Definitely recommend it if you have a use for note-taking. It is apparently also amazing for artists, but I'm not one so no idea there.

    No lag time, charges super quick & will last all day - definitely get a case that holds pencil as well since this does not attach to iPad

    Charging from the lightning port is not comfortable, however, the battery life is good and it does charge quick. There's no parallax, so that's great. Overall it's a good solid stylus

    When I first saw this in stores I thought it was such a gimmick to have a complete Apple collection: a pencil of all things? But man I was wrong. It writes and responds like your favorite pen. There’s no awkward feeling that you can get with a stylus, like it isn’t quite working right or there’s a lag. The Apple Pencil is responsive and smooth and when combined with a note-taking app like Notability you can really see the potential. I can type very quickly but sometimes I find that handwriting is a better avenue for retention and the pencil allows you to switch to script in-app flawlessly.

    Just add it to the cart if you have an iPad Pro. You can do a lot with it. Would be nice if it wasn’t longer than a normal pencil but I’m sure it’s needed for the battery

    Works well for taking notes. Takes some getting used to in order to understand best grip and pressure to use, but once you try it out a while it works well.

    I've not used pencils with other tablets in the past, so this was my first try. I love the ease of use with the iPad Pro 10.5. I've been using it to take notes in meetings with the OneNote app, and my son uses it for the coloring apps. Downside...Apple case for the Pro doesn't provide a sleeve or clip for the pencil. The Apple pencil case is basically just a sleeve that doesn't attach to the case either. Losing a $99 stylus is not something you want to experience, so not providing some type of protection via the case was a fail on Apple's part (but maybe they're hoping you'll lose it and pay another $99?).

    I am very satisfied with the Apple pencil. I am not an artist, but have been having fun drawing and coloring with the pencil. I wish it had been a little less expensive, though.
