    Comfortable in hand, pressure sensitive

    I wasn’t sure how much I would use this pencil, but after getting the Good Notes application, I really appreciate how comfortable it is to write with this pencil. It’s also pressure sensitive, which is great for using artistic and photo editing applications. The flat side of the pencil makes it more comfortable to hold than the 1st generation and it doesn’t roll off the table. The flat side also is magnetic and I really like that it attaches to the side of the iPad. I only gave it 4 stars because of the price. Is it worth $129? If you are an artist or do a lot of work that requires precision and pressure sensitivity, it could be worth it. I primarily use it for taking notes, so that’s why I feel somewhat unsure about the cost-to-benefit ratio. Nonetheless, I have used other, less expensive styluses and the Apple Pencil 2 is far more comfortable to hold and offers excellent precision vs the cheaper options.

    This is a good purchase if you already have an ipad and want to use it like digital paper. I love it. Only negatives would be pricey and no way to find it if lost. Apple has the most expensive consumer smart pen I’ve found, but imo it can be worth the money if you need it.

    It has more functions over the 1st generation and it works perfectly with the latest iPad Pro. Worth the money if you are into art and photoshop.

    Probably one of my best investments! I use this like I'm writing on paper and I can save my notes from my iPad straight to the cloud. No more taking photos of my yellow notepad notes to keep electronically. It is intuitive, has a long battery life, and text is searchable.. awesome!

    Perfect pencil. Can be uncomfortable after writing for a while so getting a rubber grip might be useful but you won’t be able to charge it on the iPad without removing it. Sometimes, it doesn’t register my taps on the pencil itself but it’s not the worst. Can’t complain, it works well. People recommend using a paper textured screen protector with the iPad but I’ve read it wears down the tip often and requires premature replacement.

    There are no buttons to push and you don’t have to plug it in to charge it. Just place it in its holder and it charges itself. Works like a charm!

    Major improvement for compatible iPads

    The best benefit in my experience is the charging through the magnetic dock. No more worries about losing that stupid little adapter to charge your generation one pencil. This generation two will charge while docked on a compatible iPad and does not have to be left wherever you last used it. They say better tracking and all that but I can’t speak to that, I haven’t been that fussy. Don’t get one for an iPad that doesn’t support it, you won’t be able to charge it. I’m just thrilled to always have it handy and charged.

    The Apple Pencil makes taking notes and drawing much easier. The magnetic on the pencil keeps it charge while keeping it attached to the iPad.

    The Apple pencil makes maneuvering around your iPad Pro incredibly simple. The 2nd generation pencil charges via a magnetic strip on the iPad Pro.

    I originally debated whether I truly needed this pencil and to help with the decision making, I borrowed one from a friend to test for a few days before I bite the bullet. And I’m glad I did - note taking, reading, and even less finger prints made it worth the purchase. I highly recommend everyone to think through what purposes this pencil should serve in your usage and I think it’ll naturally lead to the decision for a purchase or not.
