    I’ve been using this for approximately a month and found it to be highly functional and capable throughout my workflow and daily life. I am able to take better notes and draw thoughts and ideas with more ease and comfort.

    This is the second on I bought, due to my first being stolen. This works well with my iPad and I don’t have to always use my key board.

    Great pen - easy to use! Helps to keep the ipad clean of finger prints and is convenient when attached to the cover - can't loose it. Thanks!

    I like the functionality of the pencil. I have my iPad in a case and the magnet doesn’t stay firmly attached and it can fall off at times. This is more a fault of the case.

    Charging through induction at the top of the iPad is so much more convenient than plugging the first generation in to a lightning port. Stays firmly attached to the iPad while in transit, just make sure to get a case big enough to carry them together!

    I love this Apple Pencil. I had bought a generic one from Amazon to use with my iPad, but I could never get it to work with the pressure settings on some of my apps. This one works great!

    This is a must with the iPad, if you take notes for school or draw it has no latency. It just works.

    I wasn’t sure how much I would actually use the pencil since I got along fine without one for so long. However, after purchasing I use it all the time and would be lost without one now. Funny how that works... Conclusion: if you have the money to spend, get one!

    Absolutely a wonderful product could be used for a multitude of things with the iPad and expensive I’m glad I bought it and the way it sticks against the iPad and charges at the same time is a wonderful way to use it

    It does what it needs to do. I've never experienced low battery as it charges longer than I actually use it for. However, the tip did come off once and I had to look for it and screw it back on.

    I’m a Surface person, I’ve used the Surface pen for 3 years. Recently decided to buy iPad to have an extra device and had to buy the pen. It was a bit to get used to, it’s very sensitive. I find myself having to switch back to ink a lot because it goes to eraser mode often. Other than that, it’s okay! I like that it doesn’t need batteries and it charges while connected to the iPad.

    Better than the first. The Matte texture makes it easier to hold in hand and having it stored and charged on the iPad makes it even better! I had first gen and was always loosing the adapter to charge and the glossy pencil was slippery.
