    Ive used both the original apple pen as well as the 2nd generation apple pen. The second generation pen connects perfectly well with my ipad. Theres no lag when i use it, its very user friendly and it has better battery life than the original apple pen.

    Works like a dream when using Procreate, and I like how I can connect it to the iPad magnetically to charge it and pair it.

    Since this is the newest Gen Pencil it should work with the latest model Ipad but it doesn't. Customer service person told me it would, but it don't. I have to return and get the other Gen so my daughter can use it with her Ipad.

    The Apple Pencil 2nd Gen is ultra-responsive, magnetically charges, and feels natural in hand. Perfect for precision drawing or effortless note-taking.

    It just works! As an artist using iPad to work on some arts, I don’t think there are any alternatives. Many app I use, include Procreate, GoodNote 5, has great app support, palm rejection, pressure sensitive, and tilting, and it’s really smooth. It pairs really easy, I can switch it between my 12.9” pro and my wife’s air by just snap it to the iPad, and it will work. I think it’s on the heavier side for a writing instrument, and not perfect balanced in my opinion, but it’s quite easy to get used to, so not a big drawback. As for durability, I did dropped my many times, and it seem still working ok, the worst one was about 3 ft on concrete landed on the tip… still works even the tip got super bent, it might caused some lagging, but it seems fixed by replacing the tip. Over all, very happy to use this pencil for iPad!

    The perfect size! So simple yet so advanced. The charging on the side makes it so easy to constantly use at school and work. The double tap to erase is insanely helpful.

    This charges separately from the iPad for ones that do not have the magnetic spot on the side where a pencil can attach to charge. This comes with a separate charging cord,
