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.

    Tip broke off within the 1st month of owning. and the part that screws in got stuck in the pencil. I tried to remove it, but it cracked the rest of the pencil. Very poor development and a waste of $129.

    I have only had my Apple Pencil for four months and the point is flat and I have to hold it a certain way for it to work. It is very frustrating and not worth what I paid

    I got this Apple Pencil with hopes that it will be helpful to writing or drawing on my new iPad Pro. Well, it's not. Also, switching pens with touch gestures is not comfortable in my hands.
