Customers are saying

Customers regard the product highly for its exceptional ease of use, strong overall performance, and efficient charging capabilities. Its excellent compatibility with the iPad, good battery life, and accuracy for tasks like drawing and note-taking are also frequently highlighted. However, the price is a significant concern for many, and some users have reported issues with the tip's durability and connection. While lag is generally not a problem, a few customers find its size to be a drawback.

    Purchased the Apple Pencil to take notes on my iPad mini for work. The 2nd Gen Apple Pencil runs circles around the 1st Gen Apple Pencil. Apple Pencil 2nd Gen charging works great with the iPad mini. 1st Gen was painful to charge. Rich features and clean looking. Highly recommend!!

    Apple doesnt disappoint with this iteration of the apple pencil as it has that quality feel to it with how weighty but balanced it is. Pairing and charging process is seamless as well. When the tips wear down, you can easily screw off and replace.

    This is pretty great. You’d think the stylus days were over but the note and the iPad Pro proves that statement wrong again and again. The Apple Pencil is so useful especially when it comes to my editing pictures and videos the way you can have it set up to your needs is pretty amazing. Maybe in future updates we’ll get more features.

    Good for drawing and taking notes. But opening apps and use instead of finger is not smooth as expected.

    I am an artist and all of my friends have been saying to get the apple pen since I have the tablet. I gave in and got it. AND I AM SO GLAD I DID. It connects right to the tablet so I don't need to worry about losing it and drawing has never been easier. The pen won't stay on if a really heavy bump hit it but it's a really amazing tool.

    I make a lot of .pdf's of recipes and find that sometimes I want to make notes on them but unless I printed them, made the notes and re-uploaded them, I couldn't alter them. Now I can alter them with the pen easily.

    Apple is simply the best when it comes to simplicity and there is nothing better than the apple pencil for accuracy. Take a littke getting used to fine tuning the pressure needed to make certain effects happen, but worth every penny.

    Not sure that I will use it a whole lot but I like it. My kids love it too. I really like that it sits on top of the iPad and it stays there. Never had the version 1, so not sure what it is improving on. the latency is awesome, it is like using an actual pen. Make drawing fun.

    This is pretty similar to the first gen pencil. It’s a little lighter and shorter, so I prefer the older gen actually, I just can’t use it with my new gen iPad Pro. I wish they had made the old pencil compatible. I also am not a fan of how easily this knocks off the side of the iPad even when it’s locked in to its “sweet spot”. I suppose it’s a better charging system than the first gen pencil though. I lost the cap on the old one a ton and you don’t have to worry about that at all with this. I don’t recommend you travel with the pencil attached to the magnetic side charger. It gets knocked off super easy and then that’s $120 down the toilet.

    Never was a big fan of the original Apple Pencil. Too clunky, cheap feeling, and the charging was just goofy. This generation of the Pencil takes care of those things. Wireless charging with a magnet to keep it in place is a fantastic feature! Tracks very well with iPad Pro, feels like writing with a real pen. Love it for taking notes, etc.

    Best digital stylus for a professional illustrator

    I had the first generation apple pencil with a gen-1 12.9" ipad Pro. This is a major upgrade and it's 100% due to the way it charges while being stored magnetically on the side of the iPad. I do professional illustrations on my iPad and there is no better digital stylus on the market for the iPad- period. Home Run for Apple.

    You need an Apple pencil. Just get one. This one happens to be improved over the original in two ways. One, it sticks to side of the new iPad, to charge, and so you don't lose it. Which also means not losing the silly cap. And second, it has a new eraser and pressure function. Very Cool. You won't use it constantly, unless you can figure out how.
