Customer Ratings & Reviews

I tried off-brand pencils and while they worked there was always a feature (or three) missing. I hunkered down and brought the OG and I could not be happier. Works exactly as intended - as most apple products do. Nothing against those off-brand pencils, but if you want the real deal...buy the real deal!

Necessary item for an Apple device. Purchased for granddaughter who uses constantly. Pleased she is happy w/it

Sleek, accurate, charges easily and connects easily.

Nice. Easy to set up and use. Would recommend. Excellent quality.

Great accessory for iPad. Good for taking notes and working on assignments. Easy to use and docks directly to the iPad for charging.

Works as it should. The battery life has been immaculate.

The pencil is very easy to use. It is great for drawing.

This is a great accessory for iPad!! Works great with Word! Making charts and graphs are so much easier!! Charges with iPad totally worth it.

I tried using logitech pencil as well. This apple pencil is built with intelligent gestures and sophisticated design{magnetic}. Way better than logi.

Love the apple Pencil. Seems pretty pricey for what it is, but it works great, I am pleased with it.

This works great for Procreate. I've had it for one day and I'm in love. It makes drawing so easy and it great for beginners and pros.

Very accurate. Could be less bulky. But works amazing!

Setup was easy and straightforward. The pencil is light and works really well.

Great pencil. Nice and handy to do some drawings and write and design.

This works great with the iPad. Works great with drawing and taking notes.

Its handy, works well with my ipad pro. Best is its charged with ipad double tap some what trouble some in few applications.

Makes it extremely easy to navigate the screens/webpages, plus take notes, draw and create.

I use my iPad for many hours and even though it's easy to navigate with your fingers, it can get tiring. Apple Pencil to the rescue, so even if the best that you can do are stick drawings, the Apple Pencil can really help with general navigation, pointing, clicking and even for playing certain games. I hope that eventually it can be used for handwriting recognition and more. A couple of cons is that it's pricey and it doesn't work when you swipe up to return to the home page or to exit a program. For that, you still have to use your fingers.

Enjoying the new feel and look of the pencil. Better grip than first generation with the straight side for magnetic adherence. Magnet works fine. Less slippery; nicer texture to the surface of the pencil in this generation. I have no pencil carrier ... and I would not say that just the magnet is safe enough for transport; loss could occur. I have a sleeve from my prior iPad Pro that works if stretched a bit since leather does breathe and stretch. The sleeve contains the pencil holder. So when I go to work I can place the new Pro in the sleeve as well as safely carry the pencil. Too expensive to lose!

The Apple Pencil 2nd Generation from Apple is an excellent utility that takes the iPad Pro/Air to the next level. It improves on the original by adding some touch features such as tap to change brushes when you are writing. It also uses magnets to attach to the side of the iPad and to charge rather than use the lightening port like the 1st gen. My only complaint with the device is that connecting to the side of the iPad via magnet is not very secure if you are going to be transporting it somewhere outside of your home. Even inside my bag I feel I need to remove it and place it inside a pocket or some kind of case to ensure I don't loose it or damage it. It is an improvement over the previous model but I assume at some point Apple will create gen 3 with more features but that is probably going to be in 2022 now. For the current iPads this is the Pencil or "stylus" to get. Only the best in my opinion.
