    We love the apple pencil. I love how you can charge it by attaching it to the iPad and not having to plug it in anywhere.

    For someone who has no artistic talent AT ALL, this pencil has helped me to trace out designs that I want for my future tattoos. I recommend using Goodnotes 5. The pencil helps with drawing AND taking notes for school. Love that it will charge on my iPad Pro no problem :)

    The Apple Pencil 2 is a must have for the new iPad Pro but it is expensive for what it is. The tracking is perfect, and functionality is amazing.

    This pencil makes drawing on the iPad so much easier, and doing anything else on the iPad as well. I use the pen all the time, perfect for tiny hands, including toddlers! Very thin, lightweight and durable!

    I got this as a gift for my daughter. She loves to draw on her ipad and this has taken her skills to the next level! The pen is balanced perfectly and it feels great when you are writing with it. I love that it charges on the side of the iPad.

    I really like the new pencil implementation. Charging seems easier. Accuracy has improved and the iPad integration is significantly better than the first gen pencil. If I were artistic, I’d be able to offer insight on its use in artistic creation - sorry, not an artist.

    I love it, & use it every day. Great for online coloring apps as well as making notes & drawing. It attaches right to the side of my ipad. I got it for a slightly lower price because it was an open box item.

    Over the years I’ve had many pencils and this is the best (with Apple pro iPad). LOVE IT! The battery charges in no time (and this happens to me as I’ll go a week without using). Accuracy is great and using as notes pencil is outstanding. Can even put hand on screen and write “normal”.

    I had the previous iPad with the prior pen, and I must say this is a huge upgrade. I love that you can charge the pen by resting it on top the iPad side as it magnetically attaches, rather than the older model which you had to charge in the lightening input.

    Using this with the new IPad Pro. Connected really quickly, and securely through a magnet. Stays in place on the side of the IPad and will show you the battery life of the pencil. Works really good with coloring apps, and notability apps. Flawless. Finally a perfect set up. The tip of the pencil is very soft.

    The pencil works as one would expect, though the exponential increase in iPad enjoyment really surprised me! It’s a great addition - if you’re buying an iPad anyway, and may have even minimal use for the pencil, it’s worth the investment. You won’t regret it!
