I bought the Apple Pencil and love how smooth and accurate it feels. Writing notes and sketching feels natural, with no lag at all. The battery lasts days, pairing was instant, and it works perfectly with my iPad—definitely worth the money for everyday use and creative projects at home.

I really like this product! The Apple Pencil (first generation) has a surprisingly impressive battery life, (I only charge it every week or so) and has really nice pressure sensitivity for drawing. I also love using the write to type feature where I can write into the search bar instead of using my keyboard.
Also have accidentally thrown the poor thing on the ground a few times and so far it’s been perfectly fine after each 5 foot drop to my hardwood floor. Which was also very impressive to me, specifically because the last product I used with pen pressure completely broke after I’d dropped it! So this one is a significant improvement to that.

I love the Apple Pencil. This is my first one and it is user friendly.I quickly picked up how to use it and pair it with my ipad. It is easy to charge and hold a charge for a long time. Best Buy was really knowledgeable and helpful with the purchase making the whole process seamless.

This is seriously awesome! It pairs perfectly with the iPad for drawing or note-taking. It's super comfortable to use, and the touch accuracy is spot on! The design is sleek, it feels great in your hand, and you can use it for a long time without feeling tired.
Charging is a breeze – just plug it into the iPad, and you're good to go. The pressure sensitivity is impressive, allowing for delicate details in your drawings. Even though it's the first generation, it's still highly versatile, working seamlessly with various apps.

I love my apple pencil. It’s super easy to use and set up, and it’s perfect for using with procreate. Pressure-sensitivity makes drawing with it feel natural and it’s pretty lightweight to hold. I love it.

The Apple Pencil is a game-changer! It’s incredibly precise, making it perfect for drawing, note-taking, or annotating documents. The pressure sensitivity and tilt recognition give it a natural feel, almost like using a real pencil. It pairs seamlessly with the iPad, and the low latency makes every stroke smooth and responsive. Whether you’re an artist, student, or professional, this tool is worth every penny. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to enhance their iPad experience!

I was so sad that the apple pencil pro was not compatible with the ipad i have so i had to choose over usb c and 1st gen. I chose this because of pressure sensitivity. While it is annoying that the cap when you take it out for charging, or the pencil itself can get lost because it is not magnetic to the ipad, you could buy a case that holds the pencil. And honestly, it’s not that big of a deal because even the magnetic ones can get lost cause it’s not that strong. The only feature it lacks is the shortcuts which sometimes gets annoying. But it’s worth it for the price. (I bought open box) one of the tip is not that great. It’s worn out but it’s working for me. Happy with my purchase.

I love the pressure functionality, and the battery lasts a long time. The biggest issues I have are that the tip regularly loosens just from use, and you have to use a charging cable adapter to charger it. Also, if you turn your iPad off or it dies, you have to plug the pencil into it to sync them again.

Best pencil for iPad. My 5 year old daughter is learning to write and the Apple Pencil gen 1 has been fantastic with her 9th gen iPad. The best part is depending on how much pressure she puts on the tip of the pencil, the thinner or thicker her draw strokes are. She uses it with apps to draw pictures and practices her letters. Overall a much better stylus than the aftermarket options.

The Apple Pencil (1st Gen) is a legit game-changer for my iPad. Precision? Check. Pressure sensitivity? Double-check. It's not just an accessory; it's a creative sidekick. Sketching, note-taking, or just doodling – this tiny wonder elevates it all. If you have an iPad, this pencil is a must. 5/5, no regrets.

Works as advertised. Great to use for pressing buttons as an alternative to using fingers. iPad gives a full charge very quickly. Provides people with low vision an amazing experience writing when used with note taking apps such as Notes and other third party note taking apps.

Recently bought an 8th generation ipad to do digital art, i needed a new apple pencil to go with it and the first generation worked perfectly, came with extra tips and a charging connector

The Apple Pencil completely changed how I use my iPad. It feels smooth and precise, almost like writing on real paper. There’s no noticeable lag, and the pressure sensitivity makes drawing and note‑taking feel natural.

The Apple Pencil is very responsive and accurate. It pairs easily with my iPad and is perfect for note-taking and drawing. The USB-C to Lightning adapter works fine, though charging can feel awkward at times. Still a must-have for creatives and students.

This pen works great. Makes drawing and so much easier on the iPad. I can even play some games with the pen as well. It comes with an adapter for lighting or type C. Battery life is excellent

At first i was bummed that only the first generation pen was compatible with my first ipad ever! First apple product ever really...i love to draw and had used the bamboo product many years ago. Although the first gen pen did not have the extra features as the new one, WOW! As someone who has drawn for years, i am so impressed at the precision of the pen while drawing on the ipad. No regrets.
