    Works pretty well when it comes to taking notes/drawing. Highly recommend using “paper-feel”like screen protector on your iPads to get the best performance. Only downside to using it is that the tip degrades over time so I would invest in buying tips either from apple or from another company as they all work the same.

    I was hesitant at first if it was worth it to shell out the extra money to buy an Apple Pencil when I could just buy an off-brand for cheaper. The Best Buy salesman convinced me, and I’m so glad he did! The 2nd generation Apple Pencil is awesome! It charges magnetically on the side of your iPad, so I know I won’t lose it and I don’t have to worry about it accidentally snapping off like I feel like I would be with the 1st generation having to charge from the iPad charging port. It’s perfectly calibrated to my iPad and works so well. It also has some other cool features, like if you double tap on the pencil it will toggle back between drawing and erasing. I love my Apple Pencil and have had zero issues with it. I seriously cannot imagine having my iPad without it now. It opened up so many new possibilities for use for me. It’s definitely worth it!

    I love my new apple drawing pen! While I had never used one before. I learned quickly as if I were drawing with pen and paper! I enjoyed my new product that I was able to snagged quickly from the front register as my local BestBuy!

    If you've never used an Apple Pencil or have been using the first generation Pencil, please give this one a shot. I used the first gen Pencil and loved it for several years, but this one is different -- altogether better. It works so well and feels so much more natural. The charging system is great too. I'm really glad I bought this new Pencil and truly enjoy it every time I use my iPad Pro. Zero complaints. Get one. You will love it like I do!

    I bought my daughter an IPad Pro, she also asked for a Apple Pencil for her to do special drawings. Once the gift was given, I couldn’t get her off that thing! She really enjoyed this product. It’s small, the way it charges is interesting. All she needs to do is put it in the case! Boom, done! Overall, this was a great Christmas gift, and I hope everyone else enjoys it as well!

    This one is much better than the first pencil! No more plugging it in to charge or wondering where to put it, and not having to worry about losing the charger cap. It magnetically attaches to the side of the pro and charges the pencil as well!

    I love being about to write so easily on my tablet. I also like that the pencil charges itself on the iPad.Only complaint is that it's not comfortable to write with so I had to buy a pencil grip for it.

    This is the first apple pencil I've ever had. I was previously buying other non brand styluses. I thought I could get away without spending $109 on an apple pencil but I was wrong. If you want to write or draw clearly on your iPad buy the real apple pencil. I also enjoy how it charges magnetically because the previous generation apple pencil charging through the lightening port just seemed awkward. Just buy the apple pencil you won't regret it.
