    Awesome product, was able to quickly use it with my Ipad. It is the perfect tool if you are a student and want to use it to write notes or draw. Like always Apple does not disappoint and Best Buy is always the best place to shop for electronics.

    The pen is easy to use and works well with my iPad Air (4th gen). I like that I just place it on the iPad and it starts charging. It is nice and neat. I have no complaints about the pen besides that it is pricey. However, I would still recommend and purchase.

    I bought the pencil for my iPad Pro 12.9. First I thought I wouldn't need it because the screen is big enough; but it still works so much better and easier with the pencil. It's really easy to use and charge. The pencil can be detached to the iPad because of the magnets. It's even very stylish. I love it.

    The second generation Apple pencil is easy to use. Pairs easily and wireless recharging is very nice. My only complaint is the price. I have a pen that literally cost a quarter of the price and does the same thing. To be honest I haven’t used a lot of the special uses part of the pen so it may excel in those areas Call in all it’s easy to pair and easy to use

    Nice design that allows for magnetic attachment to the ipad pro and charging. This flat side for attachment also prevents rolling when compared to the 1st generation pencil. Battery life is good. The tips are quick to damage if dropped from about 3-5 feet.

    I purchased the Pencil when I got the iPad Pro and I have no regrets. The Pencil is very quick to respond and is very simple to use. It’s a must have for any iPad Pro. The build quality is great, it charges quickly, the battery life is great, and it docks to the iPad.

    The Apple Pencil is an easy to use stylus for iPad users. Easy to set up and pair, charges when you attach it to the iPad making it ready to go anytime. If you’ve been wanting one, then recommend. Great functionality and ease of use.

    Excellent Device for Artists!

    I purchased the second generation Apple Pencil along with the iPad for my niece. I hesitated between several smart pencils when doing the preliminary shopping, but I am SO glad I chose the Apple Pencil. Not only is it lightweight and comfortable to use, but it is a game changer for artists while using apps like ProCreate. It is amazing to see how technology has changed the way the world makes art, and this Apple Pencil highlights the amazing capabilities that the iPad has to offer. I'm honestly considering swapping out my old laptop with an iPad and Apple Pencil simply due to the amazing experience I have witnessed users having with these two devices. I love that Best Buy also offers cases for the iPad which hold the Apple Pencil, which charges the Pencil inside of the case, keeping everything together. I am so pleased with this entire purchase experience. Thank you so much Best Buy!

    Definitely recommend the 2nd Gen pencil as it is easy to use and can be charged magnetically. Wish it was still a bit grippier, but it works well overall for drawing and writing.

    Apple Pencil replacement

    Love this product. It's like a real pencil/ marker/ paintbrush. can get small details. It is easy to charge, just put it on on the edge of the iPad. It sticks pretty good. My only complaint is sometimes it "falls'" off the iPad in my bag or around the house and I panic that I've lost it. In fact, I bought this pencil to replace the one I thought I lost. But which I found under the couch a month later. Good news is I gave that one to my son and he's super happy with the detail for his iPad art. To be on the safe side to not lose it again I keep it in my pencil case, then charge it when I need it. It charges super fast and is ready to use in minutes.

    Much easier to charge than the first gen Apple Pencil. Flat side keeps the pen from rolling off my desk and on to the floor where my dog can chew it up. Feels natural in my hands and works beautifully with Procreate.

    The Apple Pencil 2 is Apple's best Pencil by far. With a range of features like pressure sensitivity, double-tap to change tools and Apple Pencil hover. Pairing and charging is straightforward , as it magnetically attaches to the long edge of the iPad, and it is ideal for creative work. I prefer this pencil with my iPad to cheaper alternatives due to comaptibility
