Customers are saying

Customers regard the product highly for its exceptional ease of use, strong overall performance, and efficient charging capabilities. Its excellent compatibility with the iPad, good battery life, and accuracy for tasks like drawing and note-taking are also frequently highlighted. However, the price is a significant concern for many, and some users have reported issues with the tip's durability and connection. While lag is generally not a problem, a few customers find its size to be a drawback.

    On my previous iPad (6th gen) I didn’t see the point behind an expensive Apple Pencil that I looked at as a fancy stylus when cheaper and adequate options were available so I never considered it. When I got my iPad Pro 11 (2nd gen) and Apple Pencil 2 I was prepared to still have the same mindset but I can admit when I’m wrong. The pencil is so much more intuitive than other options, even for someone like me. Definitely worth having. I also like that you don’t have to plug it into anything go charge...just attach to the iPad when not in use and it’s ready whenever you are. If you would only use it as a stylus (no note taking, drawing, etc) then yes, there are definitely some great options out there that would save you some cash, but if you’re someone that will be taking advantage of all that your iPad Pro has to offer then I definitely recommend getting this. Too soon to speak on how long the tip lasts but if you anticipate being a heavy user I would suggest getting the replacement tips so that you can have them on hand.

    I use this with my ipad and it’s quite amazing. I use my ipad in college as a notebook and it wouldn’t be complete without my apple pencil. the pencil magnets right to my ipad for easy charging and is always at a good battery life even after using it for awhile. the tip hasn’t worn down a bit, i’m not too worried about replacing it anytime soon. he quick touch features on the pencil are very useful for taking quick notes in class. 10/10 would definitely recommend for anyone needing to take notes or even draw on a ipad surface.

    Had a Pencil 1 for my Ipad Pro Gen 1.....bought a Gen 2 along with the upgraded Pencil....game changer....last longer because its always attached and charging. Along with the different shape this is everything I need in a pencil...more natural feel, good weight and most importantly, easy to find.

    The Apple pencil greatly enhances the functionality of my IPad! I love how I can draw so intricately with it! I love how it snaps into the IPad and charges itself while docking. Totally worth the money I spent.

    The Apple Pencil is an impressive stylus designed for precision and fluidity on iPad devices. It offers a natural drawing and writing experience, mimicking the feel of traditional instruments. With pressure sensitivity and tilt functionality, artists and designers can achieve a wide range of techniques. Pairing is seamless, and the low latency ensures real-time responsiveness. The only downside is its price, which is on the higher end for styluses. Nonetheless, for those invested in the Apple ecosystem and looking for top-tier performance, the Apple Pencil is hard to beat.

    Easy to use and navigate. Fits comfortably in my hand. I’m right handed with small hands. Battery lasts longer on it than my iPad and super easy to charge. I dropped my pencil once and the tip got a dent in it. Works on apps that aren’t for drawing.

Overall, the Apple Pencil 2 is a top-of-the-line stylus that delivers an exceptional user experience. While it is specifically designed for use with Apple's iPad Pro and iPad Air models, its performance and features make it a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to elevate their digital creativity and productivity.

    I purchaed the Apple 2 pencil for my new ipad Air. Works seamlessly as one would expect. Charging continually due to magnetically attaching to your ipad unless you are using it. Don't bother with the cheaper model. Again, great product you expect from Apple.

    I purchased the Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) in Open Box Excellent condition, and I’m very impressed. The pencil looked brand new like no scratches, marks, or signs of wear. It paired instantly with my iPad and works flawlessly for note-taking, drawing, and navigation. The magnetic charging and double-tap feature make it super convenient to use. At $70.99, this was an incredible deal compared to the full retail price, and I feel like I got a brand-new product at almost half the cost. If you’re considering an Apple Pencil, I highly recommend checking out the Open Box options, they’re a great way to save money without sacrificing quality.

    Easy to pair to the new iPad that I just purchased at the same time. I like that the iPad can be setup to respond to pencil touches differently than when you use your fingers to scroll for example. Long battery life, and love how it stores right next to the iPad by a magnetic pull within the protective case.

    The way the pencil charges magnetically is infinitely better than the previous way. However, the flat edge put on the pencil does make it a little awkward to hold. Although this may feel more comfortable after some time. Everything about the accuracy and feel of the old pencil is here making it an amazing drawing tool. The first time I bought the old Apple Pencil it hurt to spend $100, now they’re charging $130 which is just adding insult to injury. Despite its pitfalls if you’re an artist who uses the IPad every day this is a must have.

    Good pencil. I don’t use it much but plan to at some point. Great that it wirelessly charges. I think it’s a little pricey but good quality. Easy to pair like most apple products.
