I absolutely love this Apple Pencil. I had gotten a dupe in the meantime while I waited for the Apple Pencil to go on sale. I can definitely tell the difference, however the dupe was really good also so if you’re reading this review and are looking for a cheaper option, the Penoval AX Pro is really good. But I Absolutely love the Apple Pencil!

I got this pen to draw on my ipad pro. It works just perfect and i also added the “paper like” screen protector to my ipad and it feels so go to draw with this pen using this screen protector because feels like im drawing on real paper. I love the feature that is charges it self by puring it on the side of my ipad pro.

I love this and how accurately it writes all my 4th generation iPad Air. I have not used any of the other brands, but you certainly can’t go wrong with this. The price tag felt a little high, but it totally feels worth it now that I have the pencil in my possession

Amazing! I am so glad I got the 2nd generation because of the magnetic charging which is so convenient and it just sticks to your ipad so easily. The grip is nice, the only downside is that you have to switch out the tip and it’s kind of pricey if you buy the apple one.

I've been using the second-generation Apple Pencil with my iPad 12.9" for a few months now, and it has completely transformed my digital experience. Whether for note-taking, drawing, or navigating the iPad, this accessory feels essential. Battery life is great as well!

My husband uses it more than me and he loves it. Easy to connect and use. Easy to change colors and styles. Only complaint is where the pencil charges and stores. It’s way to lose. If you have the Magic Keyboard which we do with the pencil it falls off all the time. I got to the point I leave it in my bag and therefore it’s never charged. My husband leaves his home and his is always charged. That’s the difference. If that doesn’t bother you , you won’t have a problem.

With a 2nd gen Apple Pencil, it becomes easy to make notes and keep the pencil attached with an iPad all the time. Furthermore, it becomes so easy to keep the pencil charged and ready to use at any instance.

The only thing I would be cautious of when buying a pencil is that they are not all compatible with any iPad. So I would do some research before purchasing, but other than that it is very convenient for artists, students, or those in a corporate setting on the go. The pencil charges right on top of the iPad & my only complaint may be that it drains the iPads battery quite a bit doing so.

I have been using this Apple Pencil for a month now. It’s really great and useful for taking notes. I previously had the first generation and this one is so much better. The magnetic charging is the best. Shipping only took 3 days. High recommend buying this for your iPad.

Wonderful Upgrade

This is truly an upgrade from the first generation Apple Pencil, love the fact that there is no cap that can be lost, and you can continuously charge it on top of your iPad. The 1st gen was a pain, specially if you didn’t charge it in a while you run the risk tot it not working ever again. Definitely recommend upgrading to this Apple Pencil!
