Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the second generation pencil. It’s so much easier than having it plugged in to use. Make sure you get a compatible iPad for the magnetic charging. I have the iPad Air 5th generation and it works perfect

I like Apple products. It’s just done right. This pencil is a great improvement over the first one. And the first one was not bad. The control with different apps is impressive. I use it to take notes at work and make fast drawings. I will use it to make drawings for customer schools that I teach for our company. I like the ability to put a fast charge on it. The magnet charging on the iPad Pro is really cool.

Great pencil. A little on the expensive side but we'll worth it to use with my ipad. Works flawlessly.

So smooth and really unlike any stylus you've ever used. If you are getting an iPad that does support this, you'll want to get it because literally nothing else can compare to it really. I think that if you don't need to write, then skip it because it is pricey but if you know you're going to be writing a lot, drawing, jotting notes in e-books etc, then don't hesitate and just get one. You won't regret it..

I use this with my iPad for nursing school! It has been so easy to use and take notes, especially at clinical. I love how easy it is to charge it and keep its charge between classes.

Goes very well with the iPad Pro, I use it for drawing and also taking notes for school

The Apple Pencil is incredibly precise and responsive. It feels completely natural for writing and drawing on the iPad, with no lag. It's a must-have tool for any creative task or note-taking.

This is the new Apple Pencil for the late 2018 iPad Pros. The surface on this one is more matte finish and less slippery than version 1. This one has a flat surface to keep it from rolling off the desk. It charges with inductive charging by magnetically attaching to the side of the iPad. Unfortunately it is more expert than version 1. Also, this version will not work on last years model and version 1 won’t work on the 2018 iPad Pros. Otherwise, this is a great update for the iPad pros.

I love that this charges by sitting on top of the iPad. With the old pencil, I was constantly getting low battery warnings, and was always worried that I would damage the pencil or my ipad while charging it. (I lost the adapter after about four minutes). This one is always charged - and the iPad battery life is still impressive. I love the double tap to change between pen and eraser. I’m bummed that the second tip is no longer included, but overall, this is a great upgrade!

This version of the Apple Pencil brings some great improvements. The biggest change is that it magnetically snaps to the edge of the iPad for charging--so much better than awkwardly sticking it straight out of the Lightning port. It's a bit shorter and easier to hold. And the double-tap to switch drawing tools feature is cool, if maybe a little fiddly to make work at times. It does seem to lose its charge fairly quickly, but no worries...just snap it onto the side of the iPad to charge it back up!

Charging through magnetic connection is excellent, as I never have to worry about it losing power. It writes very easily and cleanly and feels well-balanced in my hands.

Easy to use and love the wireless charging! Bought this for my 99yo grandfather to use with his iPad Mini. Its a must have for seniors, it truly helps making touch screen devices easier to use for them.

Very nice and easy to use. Magnetically sticks to I pad and charges when not using.

This is my first Apple pencil and I was curious how it would work with my latest iPad Pro 12. It is flawless and I can't think of anything negative. The magnetic attachment is perfect and you don't have to struggle to take it off. It re-attaches without an issue. The pencil makes it so much easier to fill forms and sign documents. Life is easier and this is a great product.

Really great accessory to the new iPad Pros. Not totally necessary if you aren’t an artist or designer, but if you’re considering an iPad Pro as a laptop replacement, it’s basically like a mouse in that sense and good for taking notes as well. It honestly depends on your preference and usage, but it works exactly as advertised and is a much better improvement in every aspect over the first generation Apple Pencil. Only real con is the price, unfortunately. Although, you do get what you pay for.

Very easy to use. The magnetic install is quick and easy. Keyboard communicates flawlessly and the charge holds very long. Love the angle which is easy on the eyes.

Love the new design. Charging by connecting to the side of the iPad is so convenient. Never broke my gen1 pencil, but I know many who did just because it got hit while hanging out the bottom or the charging port.

Smooth execution for digital creativity vs the Microsoft surface pen. Price point is the only issue. Would be nice if Apple could continue to make this high dollar accessory compatible for the phone as hand off between the two devices would be more seamless. Overall I enjoy it and use it often for those banging funkadelic creations~

I upgraded to the Apple pencil to draw on Procreate as all of the reviews from youtube etc. that said save money on alternate brands did not pan out! Get the real thing - it saves time, money, and frustration.

Interesting stylus to say the least. I already have to buy more tips, but my use may have been a bit on the clumsy side. With how much I use it and how many times its sleek design slipped right through my fingers, it’s held up nicely.
