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 a little over 3 months ago and used it a few hours every week. Now it won't charge or even get detected by my iPad Pro even after doing all my research and performing all the troubleshooting steps. It's basically a dead devise.

    Do not buy apple pencils from here. They’re super defective. I’ve had to buy another one recently because the first one stopped working and now the second one does not work for me. Just go to apple.

    I enjoy the Apple Pencil and haven’t had any problems but I prefer the feel of my surface pen or Wacom. I don’t use the pencil very much and I paid a lot of money for it (because everything Apple is really expensive). I can’t say I’d buy it again.

    Not clear what to do with it. Apple site says how to charge but no directions about it’s use. I would think after a sale of an item, web based instruction would be easy to find.

    Had to return. It was very hard to figure out that this did not work with the New REGULAR iPad. It says it worked with the new iPads but after further research, it only works with the new Pro and Air.

    This said it was good with 2nd generation iPads - it was not. It’s sitting on a drawer because I bought it for a Christmas gift and was over the 20 days.

    Wish it worked for the 10th generation Ipad.... But it doesn't say that. Its literally the latest regular Ipad. Basically wasted money and can't return it.

    The Apple Pencil 2nd Gen. worked for 1 wk. I spoke to Apple Support 3 times. The problem went away at first. The same situation occurred 3 days later. I’m finished. Returning the Pencil today.
