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.

    Fantastic upgrade form the earlier pencil. Good - Battery life Double tap for multi function is an awesome feature Very sturdy grip on the side on the ipad when attached for charging Not so much At this price, should come with its stowing sleeve. I bought the Apple leather sleeve for it, it keeps the pencil safe and scratch free. Definitely recommend getting this for the new gen iPads.

    this pencil is definitely a upgrade of the first gen, it charges on the side of the iPad wirelessly. on the last gen apple pencil you had to plug it in on the iPad charging port which was a dumb design. thanks God they fix it on this new gen and i can confirm that the response time has improve drastically. the only thing i kind of hate is that they price it a little higher than before, like the old apple pencil wasn’t expensive enough lol

    I love my Apple Pencil that I use with my iPad Pro and multiple apps. The magnet helps it to stay attached to the iPad even when carrying in/out of my sleeve. It also says charged just by keeping it attached to the iPad. This generation is very user friendly!

    This new version of the Apple Pencil is a great update from the older version. The magnetic side that keeps the pencil attached to the iPad has kept me using it much more due to the fact that it's always right there. The functionality is great and the automatic charging when attached to the iPad is light years ahead of the older process. As with all things Apple, it's definitely on the expensive side.

    The Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) is an essential tool for anyone using an iPad Pro. Its precision, responsiveness, and seamless integration make writing, drawing, and note-taking feel natural and effortless. The magnetic attachment and wireless charging are incredibly convenient, and the double-tap feature allows for quick tool switching. Whether you're an artist, student, or professional, this stylus enhances productivity and creativity like no other!

    This works exactly as advertised. I am a professional artist, and I happen to have both a Lenovo Yoga All-in-One and the iPad Pro, so I thought I'd do some compare and contrasts with their individual pens. The Apple pencil acts almost identically to the flow of an actual pen/brush—comparable to my experience to a Wacom Intuos Pro tablet. The Lenovo pen is a little less sensitive and takes some practice to get used to how it flows. The Apple pencil was very easy to set up; whereas I am still having trouble getting the Lenovo pen settings to work on my computer (part of what was advertised with the All-in-one). There is still some issues with errant dots appearing when I draw on the iPad Pro, however, I think that is more of a universal problem with touch screens in general rather than with the Apple Pencil itself, and I was able to mitigate it with a tablet glove. The downside of both the iPad Pro and Apple pencil is more part of my own broad issues with Apple products in general: they are wildly overpriced (which is the major reason why I went to Lenovo when I was searching for a dedicated desktop computer). I'm hoping that with companies like Microsoft and Lenovo catching up to the level of drawing technology Apple is at, that may change. Overall, I'm very happy with the performance of the Apple pencil and I would recommend it as a valuable tool for artists.

    Great tool for artists and creative people. Magnetic charging is super simple, battery lasts a really long time, smooth gliding over the glass on the iPads. The new pencil only comes with 1 tip. Additional replacement tips can be purchased from Apple. Although it'll probably be a while before you'll need to replace it. Highly recommended for all creative types using the new iPads that support the 2nd generation Apple Pencil.

    I have a first gen pencil for my older 12.9” iPad Pro and have learned to like it very well. I bought this one for my 2020 iPad Pro. If you have the newer iPads, this new pencil is a big improvement. The feature to switch to eraser is really handy. I like the length of the device more than the Gen 1 as well. I would say that if you have an iPad and the Sept 2020 IPadOS you need this pencil.

    I’ve had the 1st generation Apple Pencil now for years and it’s been great. The interesting thing is that I didn’t really use the old pencil much because there was never really anywhere to keep it and charging it was a pain. I’ve found myself using this new pencil all the time because it’s right there charged and ready. It also stays synced with the iPad. Apple made all the right changes on this new pencil that I believe were necessary!
