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.

    If you have a 2018 iPad Pro and you take a lot of notes, doodle or operate apps that require precise touch responses? You’ll definitely want to purchase the new Apple Pencil. Unlike the 1st gen Apple Pencil, the 2nd Gen attaches to the side of the iPad to pair for the first time and and charge. Yes inductive charging, no more plugging the pencil into the charge port to charge. The magnets are pretty strong too. I think the pencil is $29 over priced. I bought it anyways because I had the 1st gen pencil with my 9.7” iPad Pro. But I definitely recommend it especially if you can get it at an discount.

    Great little tool that really helps with drawing and filling out forms on your iPad. We have two iPads in our home and I use this Pencil whenever I need to sign any e-forms for work, and the other iPad is used primarily as a drawing pad. It’s super easy to switch between the two iPads, just dock it for a second so it can pair up, and start using it. For drawing it’s fantastic, it’s almost like using a regular pencil, especially when paired up with one of those paper-like screen protectors. Overall we’ve been really happy with this.

    The Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) is a game-changing accessory that has revolutionized the way I interact with my iPad. With its remarkable precision, intuitive features, and seamless integration, this digital stylus elevates the experience of digital drawing, sketching, and note-taking to a whole new level. The standout feature of the Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) is its exceptional precision and responsiveness. With virtually no latency, every stroke and gesture feels incredibly natural and fluid. The pressure and tilt sensitivity enable precise control over line thickness and shading, allowing for intricate detailing and realistic drawing effects. Whether I'm an artist, designer, or simply an avid note-taker, the Apple Pencil delivers an unparalleled level of accuracy and precision.

    I tried a number of different tablets and pen combinations and by far the Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) and iPad Pro were the best. The pen sticks to the side of the iPad via a magnet and charges when not in use. At first, I was worried that I would quickly lose the pencil, but it really does stay attached. (Still possible to lose, but haven’t yet...) Double tap on the pencil also switches between pen tips to make it really easy to do rapid editing. The only thing I haven’t found is a reliable handwriting to text converter, however this is a software issue and not the pencil.

    Love this Apple pen! I’m in school studying to be a digital artist and this pen is a game changer for my drawings. So easy to use and connect with my iPad Pro. I’ve used other off brand pens, but none of them perform like the Apple pen. Definitely worth the money!!

    The apple pencil 2 was a huge upgrade from the 1st gen apple pencil. the battery is great, the wireless charging on the side of the ipad does away with the flimsy scary lightning plug, and the pencil is incredibly sensitive. There are things you can do with the pencil that I would never dream you would be able to do on a tablet. The different pressure sensitivities, the ability to use different angles on the tip to get different line styles, and the tap feature allows me to quickly switch between tools to be able to keep working with fewer slow downs. The only gripe would be that they only come in one color, so to be able to tell multiple people's pencils apart you either have to spend money on an aftermarket skin, or deface your property to be able to discern the difference.

    Not too much to say, great for taking notes or if you draw great for that too, super convenient that it charges just by sticking it to the iPad, maybe a slight downfall is that it can fall off pretty easy if carrying around with it on the side of the tablet.

    Apple Pencil 2nd Gen.

    The 2nd gen Apple Pencil works well like it should. I love how the pencil charges automatically when attached to my iPad Pro’s magnetic strip. With this new feature the pencil always has power and I never have to stop in the middle of working to plug it in. My only gripe is when I’m carrying my iPad around the pencil will fall off the magnet rather easily. It always seems to fall tip down and the tip gets dinged up and doesn’t work as well. Luckily extra tips are easy to purchase and replace. Basically this pencil is a must have if you are a daily iPad user.

    Well I invested in the first Apple Pencil and loved it used it for 4 years. I finally felt it was time for an upgrade. So got me a new iPad Pro a protector case and a new Apple Pencil 2. I been enjoying this way more since I got it. I love how I can now just set it on a table and it will stop rolling when it hits the flat side. Also I love the fact I don’t need extra cables to charge it. It’s just completely awesome and well worth the upgrade.

    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))
