Customer Ratings & Reviews

Recently upgraded my iPad setup and had to get the newer pencil. Super happy with the 2nd generation. Charging is easy and my battery is never low. The pencil itself is lighter compared to the 1st generation and easier to write with.

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.

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!

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

Easy to use. Really cool to use with the iPad. Fun to use on drawing apps.

So far, so good! I picked this up to go with my new iPad Air and I'm not disappointed. I love that it attaches magnetically and is always there (the flat sides are nice too). I also like that it charges while attached. No more having to attach a cable or plug it into the iPad like version 1. Just those two reasons are enough to warrant the upgrade (if your iPad is compatible).

Great product by all standards. I had it for my IPad and it works just how I want it.

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!

The apple pencil is amazing. I love the way it writes (even with a screen protector), the weight is perfect, and its super sleek!

So easy to use love it!! Love how the pen is magnetized to iPad and iPad charges pen when you replace it to iPad

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.

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.

High quality. Very easy to use and works very well with the iPad PRO. My daughter loves it.

Purchased this Apple Pencil to use with my iPad Pro. It works seamlessly with the iPad. The charge last a real long time and the pencil feels great in the hand when writing. Would definitely recommend this product to anyone with an iPad.

The Apple Pencil works smoothly and pairs instantly with my iPad. It feels natural when writing or drawing, and the pressure sensitivity is excellent. Battery life lasts long and charges quickly. Definitely a must-have for creatives and note-takers!

Works great and is easy to charge. The set up and clip on the iPad made charging a breeze.

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..

So much better than the first one when it comes to This version is significantly better than the first one in terms of battery life and doesn’t drain your iPad either. Personally, I prefer the squeeze method more than the old tapping method to access more options and use the device. However, I wish there were more functionalities available when using it on note-taking apps.

I recently purchased the Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) in white, and I'm thoroughly impressed with its performance. The precision and responsiveness of this stylus are unparalleled, making it an indispensable tool for digital creativity. Its sleek design and seamless integration with Apple devices enhance the overall user experience. The magnetic attachment for charging is convenient, ensuring that the pencil is always ready when inspiration strikes. While it's a bit on the pricey side, the Apple Pencil justifies its cost with its exceptional build quality and functionality. Whether you're an artist, student, or professional, the Apple Pencil delivers an exceptional level of control and fluidity in your work. Highly recommended for anyone seeking top-notch stylus performance.

It took me a while to get used to this, but with the addition of the PaperLike screen protector, it's become a very handy note taker. The battery life of the pencil is very good. One thing I did encounter, though, and I haven't seen anyone else mention this. My Pencil stopped working once, and after unpairing and re-paring it, it still wouldn't work. I noticed that the tip had pulled a little bit out of the pen, and when I twisted/pushed it back in, all was well again. Something to watch for if you start having issues. But other than that, I'm happy with this purchase.
