    I purchased Apple Magic pencil for iPad, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the moment I unboxed it, I could tell it was made with quality and attention to detail. What stood out the most was the sleek design, ease of use, durability, or performance. It truly exceeded my expectations in my daily routine. The customer service was also exceptional. Overall, I highly recommend iPad Magic pencil to anyone looking for a reliable solution for work, home, or travel. It’s worth every penny.

    Fantastic accessory. My wife loves using it with her mini iPad. I bought the Logitech pencil but returned it for this item. It was well worth the extra money I spend. It is very well designed, charges when connected to the iPad. It is so easy to use.

    Has both pressure sensitivity and tilt support, making it really good for drawing or creative work. Double-tap gesture: you can switch tools (like from pen to eraser) by tapping the side. Magnetic pairing and wireless charging: attach it to the side of a compatible iPad and it charges. Low latency and very precise input — great “natural” feel. Supports Apple Pencil hover (on some newer iPads), which helps with previewing strokes.

    The pencil can sense if you're holding it straight or at a slant and the strokes become thicker the more you slant it. It works fabulously in the Notes app and fairly well in other apps, I am sure the other apps will offer updates for iPad Pro soon. Procreate is one of the art apps that offers full support for the Apple pencil and it is amazing. It is however a complex app to use as it has mind-boggling features for advanced drawing and painting. Luckily, it comes with a full featured book to explain how it works. Some apps like Sketches are easier. See sample pic sketched in 10-12 min (Sketches App). This is an excellent input device for the Apple iPad Pro. It is not perfect in some ways but it is very good at drawing, writing and touch control of the tablet. Here are the pros and cons as I have seen them since my use of the pencil: Pros: • Excellent for drawing or writing • Excellent for reworking photos and doing graphic arts • When used as a touch control it is very precise when using the tip. I even like using it to read with and highlighting text in a book. • It comes with a spare tip that can be replaced. • It comes with a lightning adapter that lets you use a lighting cable to charge the pencil. • It charges quickly • You can vary the pressure or the slope of the pencil tip to adjust the darkness or the width of a stoke of a bush while coloring a drawing for example. • You can see the charge level of the pencil by pulling down on the daily window shade at the top of the screen and touching widgets. The charge level of your iPad and the pencil will be displayed. Cons: • There is no way to attach the pencil to the iPad Pro or to the Apple Smart Keyboard. A simple magnet or other mounting technique would have been greatly appreciated. • The cap covering the Lightning plug on the pencil is in no way attached to the pencil which makes it very easy to lose since you have to frequently remove the cap to charge the pencil. The cap does have a small built in magnet so that when it is installed on the pencil it remains in place, but once removed to charge the pencil its lifetime is limited to human error of losing it. • The charging connector supplied for the pencil is vey small and it also has no method of connecting it to a key ring or any other object. It is the size of a small medical pill and potentially easily lost. •

    Nothing works better on my iPad Air when it comes to drawing or writing. The pencil works flawlessly, and charges just by being attached to the iPad magnetically. Does everything it says it does, and has that Apple design aesthetic that makes it the premium product it is.

    I upgraded to the iPad Pro and was initially annoyed I had to upgrade my pencil as well. However the pencil 2 seems to be more accurate and my hand writing is much more legible. (I take notes for class). The wireless charging feature is so much nicer and you don’t have to worry about losing a cap anymore. It’s slimmer than the original which can be odd if you’re used to thicker pencils. I would suggest purchasing a grip for ease of use as well.

    It has been almost 5 months since I have ordered this Apple Pencil and it worked decently well for me, until just last week where it wouldn't even work with my iPad Pro at all. It would connect and read on my device, but once I try to use it, the Apple Pencil automatically disconnects and does not work. In terms of how I use the Apple Pencil, this 2nd gen design is something that took me a while to get used to but it works decently. The double tap to undo/erase/etc. was something I barely used, but it's a fun feature to have and could be useful. I really like how it has a magnet that makes it easy to attach onto the iPad Pro to both connect and charge. This is probably my favorite thing about the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil. Unfortunately, I had to knock off a few stars because of how it stopped working. I hope I can get this problem troubleshooted, but for now, this pencil is a major "eh" for me.

    I swore to myself I wasn’t going to get one of these and surely enough…I lied. I honestly love it so much and I can see why so many people recommended it. I use it mostly for creating things on canva but it makes my life so much easier instead of using my fingers lol

    The Apple Pencil allows you to unlock an entire array of different functions on the iPad you would otherwise never notice was there. Note-taking and drawing is really easy to do with this pen. The ability to charge it by magnets on the side of the iPad is so seamless and ensures that you never run out of battery. The pen lasts a very long time. So far I’ve only ever dipped into the 80% range during my class lectures. Definitely recommended for students!

    Way better than Gen 1! The new apple pencil is outstanding and has lived on the side of my Ipad Pro since I bought it. I picked up a second one to have on my Mini also so I don't have to remember to grab the pencil from one device to move to the other if I am traveling. Love these pencils! So may shortcuts have been added to make this a powerful side kick to any Ipad that supports it.

    So far, so good! I picked this up to go with my new iPad Air and I'm not disappointed. I love that it attaches magnetically and is always there (the flat sides are nice too). I also like that it charges while attached. No more having to attach a cable or plug it into the iPad like version 1. Just those two reasons are enough to warrant the upgrade (if your iPad is compatible).

    Disclaimer this is the only apple pencil I have owned and been in contact with... That being said I love it, the weight of it is just enough that it isn't flying away (or feels too flimsy). The feature of the magnetic charging is super easy and quick. THE DOUBLE TAP THOUGH! It makes taking notes a lot easier when you can just do the double tap and continue. It also charges relatively quickly and the battery lasts awhile- yes, we are talking DAYS, which is convenient if I forgot to charge it overnight.

    As a college student it makes using my iPad Air fun and easy. Thankfully there are plenty of tutorials online to teach me how! The way it sticks like a magnet to the side of my iPad is awesome because I don’t need to plug it to recharge and I always know where it’s at. I think the price is bananas but I guess that’s what you have to pay if you want the apple brand. Honestly, knock offs just aren’t the same though.
