    This makes writing and using the iPad so much easier. It is heavy but I love that. It is big enough so I don’t lose it. Great product.

    I was hesitant to buy the pencil but after trying it on the iPad I loved it. It reacts very quickly to the touch. It draws and paints very nicely.

    Must-Have Accessory

    Feels great in your hand! Nice weight and quality. It is awkward to plug-in to the Lightning Port for a quick charge and I wish there was a sensor on the top that auto-activated an "eraser." Otherwise, another must-have accessory for the iPad Pro.

    I’m currently in college and use this to take notes on my IPad and it’s a dream. Originally I was kind of iffy about it because I prefer just taking notes in a notebook but this allowed me to save not only room in my backpack but also saving money on tons of notebooks. It’s a perfect way to take notes as well as draw if anyone prefers to do that. It’s great! Definitely recommend and it’s easy to charge.

    Apple Pencil for a 10 Year Old

    This Apple Pencil was very confusing initially, but after googling, and simply following the pictorial it was straightforward. The other nice thing to have for the pencil is a cover, which I didn't know existed. When you have expensive devices you want to ensure that they are cared for properly. The covers also have tethers that helps to keep the pieces of the pencil together; hoping that they don't get lost while in use or while charging.

    Works well with the 7th generation Apple IPad. The drawing and writing has become quite addictive. Who needs a sketchbook

    I like having the flexibility to draw with different affects based on the amount of pressure that being applied. Also, very handy for taking notes and markups.

    Very pricey for an iPad pen, but was unsure if I would have compatibility issues between my iPad and another brand pencil. Charging of the Apple pencil is fast.

    Not a bad investment if you need a quality stylus

    Although not as fully featured as the newer version, its a great stylus for an iPad for notes or taking advantage of creative suites. For those that have older iPads and do not wish to upgrade this will get you through with a functionality that works better with iOS and is a smoother experience than a lot of 3rd party options. 4 stars due to the charging process. Although they give you a small adapter which lets you plug it directly into a charging usb cord, a better option than plugging it directly into the bottom of the iPad lightening jack.

    Bought this to write on PDF's that I edit, I do not do a lot of drawing but the AP also came in handy for photo editing. Love this thing but don't like that I have to take small cap off the top (could be easily lost). Would buy again :)
