Customers appreciate the Pencil (2nd Generation) for its ease of use, overall performance, and convenient charging capabilities. Many users also praise its compatibility with the iPad, good battery life, and suitability for drawing and note-taking. However, some customers find the price to be a concern, while others have reported issues with the tip's durability, connection problems, and the size of the pencil.

    Bought this in December of 2021. I used it probably 10 times since then. Stopped working in less than a year with only a handful of uses. Never dropped, kept it in a secure place the entire time.

    DO NOT leave your pen off the charger. I lost mine for a few days. The battery was drained and now it will not work just one day after warranty expired. Seems to be a problem with these.

    Everything was fine with the Apple Pencil until it completely stopped charging and is stuck at 0%. It is useless. Apple is aware of this but offers no Care plan for the pencil so the only option is to purchase a new one.

    I can not speak to the product itself because this was the wrong generation for my tablet. The site didn’t make it clear that this product was not compatible with all tablets.

    Doesn’t work with my iPad, which would have been REALLY useful info when I purchased this item with a new 6th gen iPad. Now I’m returning it. Come on Best Buy, help me out! I bought this and the iPad together, at the same time. None of your staff said “btw, those two items won’t work together”.
