    I used this for a few weeks by itself on just the plain iPad Air screen. It works reasonably well and gives some great new ways to use your iPad. But I recently purchased a PaperLike screen protector and now it is an AWESOME experience! Feels pretty much like writing or drawing on paper which gives you more precision and honestly just feels better (it’s less slick). It’s been great for taking notes and drawing some quick sketches of the software I’m designing, so I feel like I get a lot of use out of it, even though I’m not an artist. I also love how it magnetically attaches to the iPad and charges. I know people complained about having to plug in the first one.

    Outstanding item that has a long battery life, is user friendly, and easily works with my writing style. I am much more pleased with this item than I ever expected. I recently upgraded to the Pencil Pro due to a new iPad, but still am happy with this purchase.

    This pencil makes drawing on the iPad a breeze with smooth strokes, great size, comfortable grip, and smart functionality for drawing. And the charging is much better than the 1st gen.

    I recently purchased an open box Apple Pencil (Version 2) for my iPad Pro, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations in terms of functionality and performance. One of the standout features is the ability to effortlessly shift to eraser mode with a simple double-tap gesture. This feature adds incredible convenience and saves time when editing or making corrections while drawing or taking notes. The Apple Pencil (Version 2) offers an incredibly smooth operation on the iPad Pro's screen, delivering an unparalleled writing and drawing experience. The precision and responsiveness of the pencil make it feel like I'm using a traditional pencil or pen on paper. It captures even the finest details, allowing for precise sketches, shading, and intricate artwork. Additionally, the magnetic capability of the Apple Pencil (Version 2) is a game-changer. The pencil securely attaches to the side of the iPad Pro, ensuring it is always within reach and ready for use. This magnetic attachment not only provides a convenient storage solution but also ensures that the pencil is charging wirelessly whenever it's attached. Overall, the Apple Pencil (Version 2) has proven to be an exceptional tool for creative professionals, students, and anyone who uses an iPad Pro for drawing or note-taking. With its seamless transition to eraser mode, smooth operation, and magnetic capabilities, it offers a truly immersive and efficient user experience. highly recommend the Apple Pencil (Version 2) to anyone looking to elevate their digital artistry or enhance their productivity on the ipad pro

    I got the Pencil for my iPad Mini and I was a bit shocked at the price I was going to have to pay for this, but it's been worth having as a great accessory for quick and easy on the go photo editing with Adobe Lightroom. The amount of control you get with it and how seamlessly it works with the iPad is worth the price of admission. I will say that I wish this were included with the device and not a separate purchase. Even if the price were a bit higher, it just makes sense.

    Slick design, ability to use both ends is a plus, clipping the pen to iPad is better than inserting like Samsung. It would nice, however, if price is not as expensive.

    An upgrade from the first generation Apple Pencil! With no lightning port charging or cap to loose the ease of use is perfect. The material quality is also better and I find the battery lasting me longer. Paired with a good case that keeps it in place while stored and charging there is no reason why it ever runs out of battery. Because it is pressure sensitive it’s ideal for not only students and notation but for artists as well. The iPad experience is elevated with this must have accessory.

    It is very responsive and fairly durable if you treat it right, battery life charges fast and is fairly long lasting, great for animating and drawing. color doesnt die out and turn dusty and crusty as would you expect mainly because of its materials including aluminum for everything except the tip which is matte plastic.

    This works great with the iPad! Draws well and is very versatile. Just don’t let it charge while you’re in your vehicle, lol. I learned the hard way that the Apple Pencil charging affects most modern car key fobs. Simple fix, just remove the pencil from charging while traveling.

    An awesome accessory for iPad Pro’s 11” and up!

    I have been waiting on buying a Apple Pencil because I thought that it would just be a waste of money, but after my 9.5 pro was damaged I had to upgrade to the 11” pro. While waiting to make my purchase I got a chance to “play” with the new Apple Pencil and I was amazed at what it could do. It is very intuitive to start using right out of the box. It replaces my regular stylus and adds the ability to draw, take written notes, color pictures, add signatures to documents via your fill in programs like Adobe, and so much more. It is recharged off of the iPad itself and it recharges fast. Best Buy also priced match the Pencil which made it an affordable gift to myself. I am looking forward to seeing what else I can do with this awesome tool.
