    Very responsive and reflects my writing ability to a tee, which isn't very good, but it is faster than typing.

    The second generation pen is a really nice step up from the first generation. Still learning how best to use it.

    I wanted to love it but they have to be connected to the iPad 24/7 otherwise the battery messes up. I bought it twice and they both stopped working after a couple of months

    The one I received has a dent on the tip which makes it very hard to use sometimes. You have to angle it just right in order to use, but other than that i use it to design my photos & decorate shirts.

    I’ve gone through 3 apple pencils for the same reason, it just stops working all of a sudden, it Best Buy’s fault I think apple just doesn’t expect people to use this everyday. My wife draws tattoos out and we’ve had to replace 2 already, one was out of warranty so we’re on our 3rd. I would recommend a warranty because they seem to go out between the 6-8 month window but thankfully apple has replaced it twice before that.

    Nice product with a few minor shortcomings. I found some of the Notebook functionality somewhat hard to use with text boxes in Notebook. I replaced my first pencil thinking that it was faulty but the same issue continued. Booked a Genius appointment at Apple Store and after 4 techs tried to help a solution was found but it was not as intuitive as I would expect from an Apple product. Seems to work well with graphics.

    Decent pen, but the tip seems to wear down very easily. Can be replaced with tips from Amazon.

    Pencil can sometimes not respond when I'm writing. When I'm writing, there will be a big line that goes through the entire page and the pencil won't work after that. Not sure what's happening.

    I got a new IPad and decided to get the Apple Pencil. Well, it doesn’t drag things around like a stylus. I’m not an artist so I don’t use this to draw pictures. I’m not happy with the new IPad or pencil. There you go!

    Price dropped $50 right after i purchased and best buy refuses to refund the difference. the 30 day refund policy is only 15 days at the store, so you are better off buying this product either from amazon, or apple.
