Customer Ratings & Reviews

I upgraded to the iPad Pro and was initially annoyed I had to upgrade my pencil as well. However the pencil 2 seems to be more accurate and my hand writing is much more legible. (I take notes for class). The wireless charging feature is so much nicer and you don’t have to worry about losing a cap anymore. It’s slimmer than the original which can be odd if you’re used to thicker pencils. I would suggest purchasing a grip for ease of use as well.

Love it works well with my iPad! Stayed charged for along time! Set well to my iPad!

It has been almost 5 months since I have ordered this Apple Pencil and it worked decently well for me, until just last week where it wouldn't even work with my iPad Pro at all. It would connect and read on my device, but once I try to use it, the Apple Pencil automatically disconnects and does not work. In terms of how I use the Apple Pencil, this 2nd gen design is something that took me a while to get used to but it works decently. The double tap to undo/erase/etc. was something I barely used, but it's a fun feature to have and could be useful. I really like how it has a magnet that makes it easy to attach onto the iPad Pro to both connect and charge. This is probably my favorite thing about the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil. Unfortunately, I had to knock off a few stars because of how it stopped working. I hope I can get this problem troubleshooted, but for now, this pencil is a major "eh" for me.

The Apple Pencil allows you to unlock an entire array of different functions on the iPad you would otherwise never notice was there. Note-taking and drawing is really easy to do with this pen. The ability to charge it by magnets on the side of the iPad is so seamless and ensures that you never run out of battery. The pen lasts a very long time. So far I’ve only ever dipped into the 80% range during my class lectures. Definitely recommended for students!

It works nicely, I just wish it was actually integrated better as far as browsing and overall usage goes. It’s great quality and it’s pleasant to look at, attaches to the iPad Pro very nicely to charge.

The Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) from Best Buy is nothing short of a marvel for creativity. It's a potent blend of design, functionality, and technology that transcends the boundaries of digital art and note-taking. Right from the unboxing, you can feel the Apple magic. The pencil is elegantly designed with a sleek, matte finish that feels good in the hand. It's lightweight, yet it has a certain heft to it that gives you control while drawing or writing. The flat edge not only prevents the pencil from rolling off the table but also houses the wireless charging function—an ingenious design element that shows Apple's attention to detail. The real magic begins when the Apple Pencil meets the iPad screen. The latency is almost non-existent. It feels as immediate and natural as traditional pen and paper, something that very few digital pens have been able to achieve. The tilt and pressure sensitivity works flawlessly, allowing you to create varying line weights and shading effects with ease. This makes it an invaluable tool for artists and designers.

Disclaimer this is the only apple pencil I have owned and been in contact with... That being said I love it, the weight of it is just enough that it isn't flying away (or feels too flimsy). The feature of the magnetic charging is super easy and quick. THE DOUBLE TAP THOUGH! It makes taking notes a lot easier when you can just do the double tap and continue. It also charges relatively quickly and the battery lasts awhile- yes, we are talking DAYS, which is convenient if I forgot to charge it overnight.

Fantastic accessory. My wife loves using it with her mini iPad. I bought the Logitech pencil but returned it for this item. It was well worth the extra money I spend. It is very well designed, charges when connected to the iPad. It is so easy to use.

The pen I was skeptical on buying because I didn’t really think I would need or want it but I’m glad I got it. I bought mine refurbished so I could save some money and it was like new! Very good quality and the battery last a long time and if you get the brand that starts with an L case/keyboard it comes with a magnet strap so I won’t fall off easy. It is pricy for a pen but if you like to doodle or use the Notability app for notes I high recommend it.

Way better than Gen 1! The new apple pencil is outstanding and has lived on the side of my Ipad Pro since I bought it. I picked up a second one to have on my Mini also so I don't have to remember to grab the pencil from one device to move to the other if I am traveling. Love these pencils! So may shortcuts have been added to make this a powerful side kick to any Ipad that supports it.

No latency, smooth writing. Also it feels really good in your hand as you use it. And the double tap feature that switches between tools is far more useful than I thought it would be! Only downsides are the price, and the fact that it won’t work with any other devices, so my iPhone and my girlfriend’s older iPad are useless with it.

Nothing works better on my iPad Air when it comes to drawing or writing. The pencil works flawlessly, and charges just by being attached to the iPad magnetically. Does everything it says it does, and has that Apple design aesthetic that makes it the premium product it is.

I love the improvements they’ve made to the pencil. It attaches to the device’s side and even charges there. It’s easier than ever to charge this way, too. The pencil has a nice hefty weight to it that I love as its perfect for drawing. Definitely a fan of the double tap to switch between tools in apps. So far I have no complaints.

As a college student it makes using my iPad Air fun and easy. Thankfully there are plenty of tutorials online to teach me how! The way it sticks like a magnet to the side of my iPad is awesome because I don’t need to plug it to recharge and I always know where it’s at. I think the price is bananas but I guess that’s what you have to pay if you want the apple brand. Honestly, knock offs just aren’t the same though.

2nd Generation Apple Pencil feels great in the hand and the design for charging is much improved. It does have better accuracy on the more recent iPad product line and the ability to double tap on it to toggle certain tools such as eraser and back to pencil saves a lot of time. Excellent product!

I love my Apple Pencil. I had one prior to purchasing an open box one from BB. I was excited to find another at a fraction of the cost, and I still ended up getting a new one (unused) in the box.

I love this pencil! The fact that it charges while connected to my ipad helps me not lose it! Its light weight and comfortable to use. I highly recommend getting this is you use your ipad for note taking and tasking, makes it a lot easier!

The Apple Pencil is amazing. It’s fun to use, useful, and cool! I have so much fun using it! It makes just typing something super fun. I love how it’s compatible with so many things. The Apple Pencil makes many things easy! Typing paragraphs, drawing, and many other things. It’s amazing how it can do so many different tasks. The Apple Pencil is really cool! I love how you can double tap to change modes when drawing. It’s also really cool how you can change the tips. Overall, the Apple Pencil is AMAZING! It’s features are awesome, it makes things easier to do and it’s really fun to use.

As someone who spends a lot of time sketching, writing notes, and planning digitally, the Apple Pencil has completely changed the way I use my iPad. What impresses me most is how natural it feels—like holding a real pen, but with so much more power behind it. The pressure sensitivity and tilt recognition make shading and drawing feel fluid, while handwriting in apps like Notes or GoodNotes looks cleaner than anything I’ve tried with other styluses. Beyond creativity, it’s also practical. I can mark up PDFs for work, sign documents in seconds, and even navigate my iPad without leaving smudges all over the screen. The magnetic attachment and wireless charging are small details that make a big difference—I never lose it in my bag, and it’s always ready to go. It’s not just an accessory; it’s become an essential tool in my daily routine. If you’re on the fence, trust me: once you try it, you won’t want to go back.

Easy to use , very smooth with the lines and accurate I love it !
