    Love this thing. From taking notes on my iPad and having it change from scribble to relaxing and drawing on one of the cool apps Apple has available, it’s a really cool addition to the iPad. Definitely recommend for extension of an iPads usability.

    I wonder what technology lies inside the seemingly sleek pencil with no lead or eraser? I think they should have called it a magic pencil so that it matched with the magic keyboard. It's a marketing failure on Apple's part. Pen works amazing.

    It would be easy to just say that this is a great pencil, and move on. That would be true, but it wouldn't quite describe the experience with the new apple pencil. Its just butter. It really feels like you're writing with a pencil. I notice NO lag. I just love this thing.

    It's a stylus from Apple. Works great with iOS. Love the charging mechanism over the original 1st gen model. Just wish it wasn't quite so expensive. If you need a stylus for your iPad and it supports the 2nd gen model, just get this one.

    If your iPad supports this pencil, 100% buy it. It’s practical and just fun lol. I scroll through YouTube with the pencil, write notes, sooo many things. Honestly just lost my first one in new York, and immediately bought another. It’s that fun to use.

    The 2nd generation is a great step ahead for the multi-functional Apple Pencil! The pencil connects magnetically to the body of your iPad Pro for charging with makes this an ease! Connectivity & pairing is easy to set up and the pencil allows one to draw with sensitivity and artistry!

    This was a gift and a replacement for an off brand pencil (not the Apple Pencil). The person I bought it for can be quoted as saying “it is so much better” when compared to the off brand one she had before. I will take that as a win, and I am curious to see what she creates

    Best stylus for iPad

    Even though I’m not a digital artist and that’s really what this Apple Pencil was designed for, it is the best and most precise stylus if you don’t want to use your fingers on the touchscreen. The pencil attaching magnetically to the side of the iPad was a perfect idea and very handy!

    This is an expensive tool and it's easy to misplace, but it really does make using an iPad Pro that much better. I really didn't want to like the Apple Pencil but I have now purchased several of them over the past few years for myself and family members.

    Do not know what happened to the old Pencil - but the replacement is far less expensive than the original pen purchased over a year ago. Love the consistency of Apple Products

    Love this ! I do a lot of art and editing images on my ipad and this makes it so much easier. i love that you just put it up on the ipad and it charges it as opposed to the old versions where you had to plug it into the ipad to charge which was king of awkward and out of the way. Love this
