Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works great. Charges good. Draws nicely. Overall great product. Expensive.

The original pencil was a joke in my opinion. While it worked, the ergonomics were terrible. Charging via cable or through the IPad was poor design. The Pencil 2 is magnetic and charges while attached to the IPad. It's screen functions are precise. I still wish it was the size of a pen to fit in my pocket. Yes, I still wear shirts with pockets. It's good writing instrument but pricey.

Love it works great you can see and feel the quality of the product very light weight and easy to use on my new iPad Pro wanted to upgrade all my devices before the new year

For this 2nd generation they understood what was not that great on the 1st one and improved over that. With the previous version I didn't know where to put it and it was always discharge because charging it was very annoying. In this case, they did it better, even the weight, size and overall feeling is much better. most important, you can attach it to your iPad so it is more difficult to loos it and it will even charge.

The new Apple Pencil is a huge upgrade over the first generation. It is much more balanced in my hand and the ability to tap the pencil and change between writing and erasing is very convenient. Due to its lighter weight and smaller size than the previous generation, writing feels much more natural. I do not have small hands (unlike some executives). The main downside is that it is not backwards compatible with older iPad pros.

I loved this pencil. I previously had the pencil pro but for my personal use this one is just as good and is compatible with the older model ipads so it suited me perfectly.

Excellent. Writes well. Very intuitive. Will recommend to anybody. There’s no lag when writing. Makes things easier. Saves time. You’ll enjoy using the iPad better. It’s an additional feature to like iPad. It helps in taking notes and writing stuff. I’m not good in drawing but this pen helps me a lot. I like it and it’s much better than the first one, so I’m told.

I had the 1st gen pencil, this one is nicer. Charge and attach on the side of an iPad magnetically is great. It works great with the iPad os scribble feature. Love the tap to change the tip feature when drawing.

The pencil works beautifully just as advertised. There are other stylus’ that some people prefer and each have their specific focus but the design and feel of this along with the way it charges makes to be my personal favorite. I personally bought a certified refurbished and had zero issues - seemed brand new to me.

I’ve wanted to use the pencil since Gen 1 but waited until there was no need to awkwardly plug it into a USB-C port to charge it. Happy I waited for Gen 2. Feels great to use and is a nice addition to a compatible iPad.

I love the apple pencil. I previously had the 1st generation one and this one is so much better because I don't have charge it as it automatically charged. Highly recommend over the 1st gen.

Very useful with the noted app, which I use to keep track of several things at home, feels almost like using a regular pencil/pen. Im using it with my iPad Pro 11 inch model and Logitech keyboard, attaches and charges magnetically, hasn’t fallen off even when carried in my backpack for motorcycle rides

Apple nailed this product. My son used this for entire high school and using it in collage. Bought a second one for collage and he uses it extensively for write and drawing on his iPad Pro.

This pen work so good and it been a very useful item/tool I would 100% recommen this item , I use it for my iPad and it helps a lot

Added this on to an iPad and it has made the experience so much better. It helps when needing to click small options and signing on an iPad.

I purchased this Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) for my daughter to go with her new iPad Air and Magic Keyboard and she loves it. She uses her iPad instead of her laptop and uses the pencil everyday in Flight School. It is much better than the 1st generation pencil that I have. Great purchase and customer service from Best Buy!

I owned the Logitech Crayon previously and used it with the iPad Mini 5 for about two years and I really enjoyed using the combo together. However, recently I decided to upgrade to the iPad Air for more screen real estate and also decided to purchase the Apple Pencil as well. Typically I never buy Apple-branded peripherals, because I think the extra premium cost is not worth it. I still feel that way after owning the Apple Pencil 2. I bought the pencil when it was under a massive deal and that is the only reason why I decided to purchase it. I have had the pencil for a while now and I absolutely love it, the feature that I really like is the ability to charge it by attaching it to the iPad. When I had the crayon I would forget to charge it and I felt like I would run out of power more with the crayon, not the pencil. One of the features that were enabled right out of the box was being able to double-tap the tip of the pencil to pull up the eraser. I was not a fan, because I always felt like I turned it on, but I am sure someone would like that. I really enjoy using this device and I use it a couple hours per day for school.

It's a nice pencil. Might have to get a grip or skin for it though. I find myself dropping the pencil a few times because it is slippery. Seems sturdy. I dropped it maybe about 5 times on the carpet floor and seems to be intact and functional. I like the magnetic charge feature. The tip could be a bit softer. Makes a lot of tappy noise when writing. I tried some tip covers but I didn't like them because it affects the drawing and writing experience. Not so happy about the price for a pencil tool. Besides these things, this pencil works great with drawing and writing apps. A must-have if you are using your ipad for these purposes.

Great product. It’s a must have if you have a tablet that will allow it. I’ve purchased several as it’s one major drawback is it’s a little pencil and gets lose off rolling into adventures under and in couches, car seats, most coffee shop floors, and most recently an airplane. It’s a perfect compliment and necessary tool for my iPad Pro as long as I can hold on to it.

I have used the 1st generation so I was familiar with how to use it except this one has the double tap feature. I like how I quickly it charges when I place it next to my new 12.9 iPad Pro. No more extra chargers. I feel it's a little overpriced & wouldn't have purchased it had my 1st generation worked with the new iPad. I recommend it.
