Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Pencil's ease of use and overall performance, finding it effective for tasks like drawing due to its pressure sensitivity and precision. The long battery life, broad compatibility, and USB-C adapter are also appreciated features. However, some customers have reported occasional connectivity issues and concerns about the grip and cap design.

    If I could give less than 1 star I would've. Reason being is when I received the product it was the wrong pen! We couldn't figure out why it wasn't compatible with our iPad.Finally going back to Best Buy, who's geek squad was wonderful by the way, they noticed that the pen wasn't the correct version that should have been in that box. They right away exchanged it for the correct pen.

    Tip of pencil felt like it was scraping the screen instead of gliding across the screen. Had to return it. I also found it hard to navigate switching from using the pencil to using the touch screen with this item. Very glitchy. Overall not pleased.

    The 1st Generation I did not like and returned it for the 2nd Gen. The first. Gen requires to be plugged in to charge. The next Gen attaches to the iPad and charges that way.

    horrible experience. I purchased the item online was told it was ready for immediate pick up went to the store and after waiting in a long line for a very long time was told They didn’t have it I I was furious. I had to have them cancel the original online order which I paid for using my debit card and re-purchase an apple pen that was in stock and then did not have the refund hit my bank account until a week later. It was a miserable experience.

    Well I was sent the wrong pen from Best Buy. I bought my daugter a pen for Xmas and it was not the same Model she needed, so my husband and daughter went back to the store with the Apple pen and the manager and sales associate implied that we stole it or that there was something nefarious going on since the item numbers didn’t match.

    Horrible, device not working like it was suppose to. And once it started to not be efficient I took it back to Best Buy and the front desk manager wasn’t able to help in any way. Instead I got an attitude from the lady. I wasn’t even asking for my money back. Store credit would’ve suffice. One of the worse interactions I’ve ever had at Best Buy.

    Worst apple product ever. You can’t turn it off, so is always dead. It needs an adapter to charge, so it’s always dead. My point is always dead.

    This is the one you need to buy if you have a 10th gen iPad. It has to be this one because of the included adapter.

    Bought this for my granddaughter for Xmas. It stated it was compatible for a 6th generation iPad mini. It did not work. I assume they returned it or exchanged it for one that worked with her iPad. The info on the description was wrong unfortunately.
