    A very good accessory for IPads and a must for students for taking notes in class and drawing for artists.

    I purchase the pencil on a whim, not too sure if I would actually use it or not. Once I got it, I loved it! I use it everyday for various things from taking notes, playing games, drawing, etc. It's great!

    I love how the new pencil has pressure sensitivity and the line gets thicker if you hold the pencil to the side. The easy charging by magnetically connecting it to my iPad is a HUGE improvement from having to plug it in with a cord or plugging it into the charging port of the iPad. The price is still kind of high but I was able to get a price match for $15 off since Amazon had it priced cheaper.

    Absolutely love the versatility having then pencil brings. I was struggling between going digital and still loving to write things down. The pencil has helped bridge that gap. I'm able to write things down and still get the mental satisfaction of handwritten notes but everything is kept digitally. Win. It has yet to go below 75% battery life and I write A LOT. It not too heavy and feels nice in your hand. I did purchase some replacement nibs directly from Apple. Not too pricey I think $20 for 4. I didn't want to not be able to use my pencil if one needed to be replaced. But so far it still writes and feels like the first day after almost 2 mos of consistent daily use. I would definitely recommend this if you're thinking you'd like one. Just go for it. I'm happy I did.

    The Apple Pencil is a great addition to the iPad. It can be used both for a work project and for fun. It is easy to connect and use, it is sleek and light weight. Great for tapping the screen or drawing.

    I absolutely love Apple Pencils; they have amazing longevity as long as you treat them well, make drawing on tablets so much easier, and it's 100% worth it to spend the money on a quality product than spend less on an off brand. My original lasted for two years, and would have lasted longer if it wasn't for the fact that my dominant hand needs surgery. The muscle spasms have resulted in the poor thing being dropped multiple times, and one of the incidents put a decent sized crack in the barrel, resulting in it not being as responsive. As an artist, I wanted to replace it ASAP and I knew I wasn't going to buy anything but another Apple Pencil.

    Precision Meets Convenience

    Outstanding Product! The Apple Pencil 2nd Gen is a game-changer for iPad users. Its precision is top-notch, ideal for artists and note-takers. The magnetic charging is super convenient, and the double-tap feature to switch tools is a huge plus. While it's on the pricey side and only works with specific iPads, it's definitely worth it for those who use their iPad extensively for drawing or writing. Highly recommend!

    My daughter loves the new Apple Pencil. She says it’s lighter and feels more like a pencil then the original pencil. She loves the tap feature, the fact that it charges while resting on the iPad, and the accuracy and smoothness of the writing.

    I love how easy it is to use this right out of the box. The magnetic charging on the side of the iPad is also quick and seamless. The weight of the pencil is well distributed and doesn’t tire your hand whatsoever.

    So easy to use, feels good in the hand and safe to store and charge. Simplicity at it best, no cable, no holding a pair button or replacing batteries. Works smoothly and is great with new Ipad OS update using scribble

    The Apple Pencil is much improved easier to hold and the Wireless charging works great. I use it to take notes, color and draw and as a stylus/mouse. It was definitely a worthwhile purchase. My only complaint is that it is a little expensive.

    Works great with the new ipad air. love how they added the flat side so it doesn't roll off desk, and it attaches by magnet to the top of the ipad. very sensitive on the screen and weighs just like a real pencil.

    Huge upgrade from the 1st generation pencil. Clicks and charges right on your iPad. It is fun to sketch and draw with it. Definitely recommend to anyone on the fence about getting one. It is not a necessity but it is functional and fun. Docking a star because the price should be a little lower plus it would be nice to have an eraser function on the other end but it is still worth getting and recommended.

    I thought the iPad was complete on its own—until I tried the Apple Pencil for note taking at work. Now, I can’t imagine using one without the other. What makes it special isn’t just the technology, though that’s impressive. The instant pairing and magnetic charging mean it’s always ready to go. The matte finish keeps it comfortable during long sketching or note-taking sessions. The double-tap gesture feels like a small detail, but it changes everything when you’re in the flow. But the real magic is in the experience. Taking notes in class feels faster than typing. Sketching concepts for work feels natural, with zero lag. Even marking up PDFs or editing photos is smoother, cleaner, and somehow more enjoyable. It turns the iPad into something bigger than a tablet—it becomes a sketchbook, a planner, a canvas, a creative studio. Yes, it’s pricey. But instead of feeling like a splurge, it feels like an investment in creativity and productivity. The Apple Pencil 2 doesn’t just enhance the iPad—it unlocks it. Five stars.

    The second gen Apple Pencil works so much better than the first. Of course, charging is so much easier as well. It works great for drawing and taking notes on my ipad mini.
