    I own an original Apple Pencil for my old iPad Pro. This one us superior in many ways. Being able to charge via a magnetic hold on the side of the iPad is a game changer. I alway felt like I would lose the cap to my old Pencil. I no longer am worried about that. This feels great in my hand. Drawing on the iPad is so much fun.

    I had to get the Apple Pencil after the 2nd malfunctioning $30 version broke. I still think the price is way too high... but I can say that it does work better and can do more things than the generic knock-offs. Charging on the magnetic strip of the iPad and the "Scribble" feature are both very nice. That said... I dropped it the second day after purchasing and it too stopped working. I had to purchase a set of replacement nibs. Thankfully, that solved the problem, but added another $20 bucks to my purchase. It's a good product, but treat it very gently.

    Sleek, satisfying to hold, not at all cumbersome. It's got a lot of built-in features for user-accessibility, and just pairs nicely (both functionally and aesthetically) with the iPad!

    Best Buy offers the best price for the Apple Pencil (2nd gen) and has frequent sales on it. This is my second pencil (purchasing it as a gift) and again, Best Buy had the best deal on it! If you're someone who plans to use their iPad to take notes and draw the Apple Pencil is a must!

    I recently acquired the Apple Pencil Gen 2, and it has completely transformed the way I interact with my iPad Pro. This stylus is not just a tool; it's a piece of innovation that seamlessly integrates with the iPad ecosystem, offering a level of precision and functionality that sets it apart. The magnetic attachment feature is a game-changer. The Apple Pencil effortlessly attaches to the side of the iPad Pro, ensuring that it's always within reach and ready to use. The automatic pairing and charging through this magnetic connection eliminate the need for fumbling with cables or worrying about battery life.

    If you have an IPad then you should buy the Apple Pencil. It helps with writing notes for those who are studying. Also, artists can use it for their portfolios.

    Love the 2nd gen Apple Pencil. Very easy to attach to the side of the iPad, and the battery life is excellent. The double tap feature to switch between pencil and eraser is also great, however sometimes it can be quite sensitive, and switch over to eraser mode when you don’t mean to.

    Don’t Get For Just Note Taking

    After a month of use. Regular paper and pencil works just fine for notes although you won’t be able to organize and label important sections of your notes neatly. I’ve been using the Apple Pencil mainly to take notes. The Apple Pencil is great if you want to digitize your notes. Note taking has also been an upgrade for me since I can now color code notes and highlight digital documents. I’m able to take as many notes as I want without worrying about wasting paper. I can organize and file them accordingly for each topic and find them in a pinch. Although the $129.99 price is quite a lot for a stylus. Might be better to use notebook and paper. My classmates are having no troubles using paper and pencil, just uploading a photo of their notes and work is the only problem since our class website doesn’t take HEVC/HEIF photos (the standard format iPhones take photos and videos). Overall, I kind of do and don’t regret buying the Apple Pencil. It’s quite expensive and just using normal paper and pencil for class can achieve almost the same results. I feel that it’s worth buying if you’re a digital artists or if it was $99.99 like the first first gen. Some stuff about the Apple Pencil after a month of use •Matte design feels better than the first generation for sure •The magnetic design is a very nice thing to have since you don’t lose it and it charges every time it’s connected •Made the mistake of using the pencil while I still had just a light amount of motor oil still on my finger. It stained the pencil of course, but it disappeared after a few days of normal use. •Been using GoodNotes and Files to write and it doesn’t always write where the tip is at, usually off by just a minuscule amount but enough to throw me off, but I do have a glass screen protector on the tablet which is most likely the cause.

    Almost like I'm drawing with an actually pencil. Extremely quick to respond. The double tap on the flat side is a very nice feature to have and it keeps charge for a while. I only wish there were more colors. Love the wireless charging

    This new generation of apple pencil has many advantages over its predecessor. First, it charges on the side without trying to find the original charger or plugging into the end. Secondly, it has a flat side so it doesn't roll everywhere. Lastly, it has the capability to change settings (pencil to eraser) with a tap. These features alone are worth their weight in gold.

    If you own the newer iPad Pro, I would highly recommend purchasing one. It makes the experience of the iPad Pro that much better and feels great when note taking and combined with specific screen protectors to mimic the pencil on paper feel. I really enjoy the simplicity of the pencil attaching magnetically/charging on the side of the iPad.

    Never was a big fan of the original Apple Pencil. Too clunky, cheap feeling, and the charging was just goofy. This generation of the Pencil takes care of those things. Wireless charging with a magnet to keep it in place is a fantastic feature! Tracks very well with iPad Pro, feels like writing with a real pen. Love it for taking notes, etc.

    Love this pen. Great feel, very responsive, and the fact that its magnetic & charges while attached to the iPad is genius. I've seen people use the pen for general use which is a little buggy for me but drawing wise it's perfect.

    Love this product, making writing on the iPad seamlessly. It's very precise and accurate. I recommend buying a tablet case that can hold the pen bc it can get in the way when holding your iPad. Battery life is almost never an issue, I've dropped it plenty of times no wear or tear.

    Having both apple pencils and this one is way better, in terms of usability and the way it charges. The downside is only applicable to the iPad Pro series and a tad expensive. Overall it is valuable only if you really work with arts, otherwise, don't splash your money. You can spend the money to buy AirPods or other accessories.
