Customer Ratings & Reviews

Honestly, I was more annoyed that I "forced" to buy a 2nd gen Apple Pencil after upgrading my iPad Pro. I already owned a 1st gen Apple Pencil, but changes in design/charging forces you to upgrade. It functions much like the 1st gen, but I like that it charges by connecting to the side of iPad. I also like that you can tap the side to change features of the pencil. I'm just tired of giving Apple all my money.

Apple Pencil gives you a completely different experience when interacting with the iPad. It gives you much better accuracy when editing a video or a photo, even when writing it has very little latency. The negative point is its price, it is expensive.

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.

I bought this as an open-box item (salesperson said it had been used as a demo) at my local Best Buy on Feb 26, 2019, and it’s still going strong. It’s been accidentally dropped 2-3 times and - based on reviews I had read - I was nervous each time that it wouldn’t work anymore, but I’ve had zero issues. It holds a charge well and does exactly as it’s supposed to. If I had to offer any critique, it’d be that the couple of times it did stop working was due to the tip being a bit loose/unscrewed from normal use. Now, I just tighten it out of habit, but definitely more than needed as it only happened a couple of times in the first few months. Otherwise, I’m pleased with the product and pleased with Best Buy on the reliability and condition of the item as an open-box sale.

This Apple Pencil goes hand and hand with the Apple iPad 10th generation. I have been using this pencil every semester and it has never let me down, especially with its battery life.

Not your average stylus.. it’s a digital pen that never runs out of ink. It is well made and has a good weight and feel in my hands. I have never used a stylus pen before, so this would be a very beginners review. So as far as first impressions, I am impressed. Disclaimer: I am an Apple user and a fan of the products I have purchased. But so far, I have not been disappointed. Working with this pen, using the Adobe drawing and design apps is basically working for me. The ease of charging it magnetically instead of plugging it on the side, is such an awesome design. Obviously, I like it, and recommend it. Stop in to Best Buy and try it out before you buy. If your getting the IPad Pro 2018 Model, it is a must companion to unlock the full potential that the IPad can offer.

After buying an Apple iPad 11Pro a few months ago I had read about these pens and although I was already using a basic stylis, this Apple iPen is something special, and I’m yet to fully utilise all it’s features. The plug n play make starting to use is great, you simple BT it to your device then but placing it onto the side of the tablet the magnetic pull sits it in place easily where it begins charging (it was already about half charged out of the box). Each time my iPad grabs it for rest a charge % icon comes up on the screen and although it utilises the iPad batterie, it’s very quick and hardly bothers the iPad charge.

Recently picked up a 12.9" iPad pro. Absolutely gorgeous (haven't had an iPad since the 2nd/3rd Generation). As i'm working on transitioning from my Macbook Pro to the iPad pro for my photography, the apple pencil was a must. It's been awhile since i've used a stylus or anything like that...but, this was easy to catch onto. iOS had a nice tutorial on how to use the pencil. I love that you can double-touch the pencil while holding it, and it'll go to/revert to another function (which can be completely programmed). Writing with it and using it on the iPad is very nice. Reminds me of when i had a Wacom tablet, but I can honestly say that I like this more. A little on the pricey side, but worth it in my opinion.

If you have an iPad that can use the 2nd generation Apple pencil, just buy it. No, it's not exactly like writing on paper, but with a bit of practice and the right app, you will realize it's actually better. You can write in multiple places and applications and your handwriting will turn into words. You can also do quick drawings, like the proverbial back of the napkin illustration, to keep and to share. If the price is a concern, consider the productivity you will get and watch for sales, I bought mine on sale.

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.

Worked great! Fantastic product, and a great price with the "open box" discount! So glad I came in and asked what they had on hand! Fantastic product for a young aspiring artist!

Best addition to my 11 iPad Pro (2020) hands down. I love this thing and constantly use it. I used a surface pen before (on a surface pro) so it took adjusting. So minor. - I wish I could screenshot and write. (and maybe I can with the right app?) - I sometimes catch myself flipping it to erase like an idiot. - I adjust constantly when I write/draw. To the point double tap had to be disabled. However, I love the precision of this pencil and find a lot more creative outlets because of it. - So much lighter weight than it’s competition - Charges magnetically (no aaa battery to forget about) - So much more to do! (Apple ecosystem really supports the pencil) I love it.

Seems to work fine.My other one the tip broke off and I had to replace the pen.

The pencil is very slick, works great, is very helpful and accurate for work. it connected very easily and charges automatically. I bought it about 10 days after the iPad and I think it really is helpful and productive to have.

Apple is often criticised for high prices on their products. While this Apple Pencil does have a high price tag, it sure does pack the features. I bought this to pair with my iPad Air 2020 and it has worked flawlessly. It is light but sturdy and has many redeeming features. It also charges wirelessly so no more cables. A definite buy for anyone with a compatible device.

I love the Apple Pencil products. I feel I have a lot of control when drawing. I use my iPad and pencil every day for hours at a time, and the battery lasts quite a long time. I hardly have to change the nub for months to years at a time. (if I ever did, it's because my dumb self dropped the pencil and it landed on the nub TToTT))

I love how this pencil works with my new iPad!! Great for note taking! And it sets comfortable magnetized to the iPad. I always had to keep up with the 1st generation pencil but this one is perfection!

I bought this to use with the latest iPad Air model that now supports the latest Pencil. It connected right away when attached to the side where it charges and attaches magnetically The magnetic attachment is fairly strong and I'm not afraid of it accidentally falling off. The battery life of the pencil is very good and there are many drawing and coloring apps that recognize and support it. One thing I was not expecting is that the Pencil tip is very hard, so when using it for drawing, the surface provides almost no resistance; it definitely feels like you're drawing on glass. Lastly, I'll mention that the size and weight of the pencil feels very good in the hand.

Honestly not sure what I'm supposed to say. I've never used a pencil on an iPad that actually worked, guess that's something. Works very nicely with Fusion and Sketchup. Can even decipher my horrible handwriting using the iPad for taking notes. Very cool accessory that charges while docked via magnets. Quite happy after a month of use.

Nice and easy to pair. Battery last forever And its easy to charge. Yo dont need to plug it with any wire. Just stick it tomthe tablet and all done
