    I got my new iPad Pro as i made the transition to become a paperless student and this is a need! It really feels like a real pencil and love it’s variety of features in one, it’s no need to carry around a pencil pouch and heavy notebooks! A need!

    This is so much better than the old pencil. I can’t tell if the performance is better but just having it charge automatically while stuck to the new iPad Pro is a game changer. The old one was ridiculous having it stab your belly while charging in the Lightening port.

    Best way to write on iPad Air! I have the newest generation iPAd Air and the Apple Pencil snaps right to the top, making it way easier to store than a traditional stylus. Highly recommended if you buy a new iPad.

    I use the pencil with an IPad Pro to take notes and mark up documents. I am a lawyer who must review a large number of documents and cross reference between then. The pencil work well for these tasks, especially when using the various apps that are available.

    I absolutely love the Apple Pencil. It’s totally awesome. It’s pricey but worth it and it is an apple product after all. I’m a huge fan or everything Apple except the prices. It better than the rest of the playing field tho.

    This is honestly a must have for the iPad Air or even the iPad Pro. If you just like scribbling on coloring books or even doing professional drawing, it is a must have. This has even made my photo editing a breeze!!

    Just remember to let it sync with the device by letting it magnetically clip to the right side. Tip down does seem to matter. Speaking of tips, if it starts to behave oddly or not pick up taps, make sure the tip is screwed in all the way.

    Apple Pencil 2 Feels better in hand than original

    I’ve had Apple Pencil 1 and I love how Apple Pencil 2 is flat on one side. Makes it feel more sturdy in hand. I think that is why Apple is doing flat sides on all their products because it’s much easier to hold/handle it that way.

    I would rate this 4.5 out 5 stars only because this pencil is amazing for a lot of things useful in the iPad. The only flaw I found was that when writing on websites, google slides, or emails it does not capture words you are always trying to write and there is a constant need to separate words or misspelling. Note taking on apps with no text involve works amazing and drawing on digital works awesome too

    I have used other cheap ones from Amazon and it's glitchy from time to time. This one is solid with no issues. Overpriced but it's Apple.

    Never thought id use the apple pencil and that it would be a waste of money. After buying the apple pencil I don't know why I waited so long to get it. I'm absolutely in love with it.
