    At first, I was very dubious about the pen. I especially was scared I would lose it sooner or later. But I have not had that issue due to the great magnetic snap to my iPad Pro. It has become indispensable for my writing and really anything I do on the tablet. The great thing about this and some of the newer Apple accessories is how it just easily switches from one device to another without having to open up settings and re-pair it.

    This pencil is rather pricey but its functionality definitely is worth the cost. I love drawing with this and using it to take notes as I am a tactile person.

    If you have a 2018 iPad Pro and you take a lot of notes, doodle or operate apps that require precise touch responses? You’ll definitely want to purchase the new Apple Pencil. Unlike the 1st gen Apple Pencil, the 2nd Gen attaches to the side of the iPad to pair for the first time and and charge. Yes inductive charging, no more plugging the pencil into the charge port to charge. The magnets are pretty strong too. I think the pencil is $29 over priced. I bought it anyways because I had the 1st gen pencil with my 9.7” iPad Pro. But I definitely recommend it especially if you can get it at an discount.

    I tried a number of different tablets and pen combinations and by far the Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) and iPad Pro were the best. The pen sticks to the side of the iPad via a magnet and charges when not in use. At first, I was worried that I would quickly lose the pencil, but it really does stay attached. (Still possible to lose, but haven’t yet...) Double tap on the pencil also switches between pen tips to make it really easy to do rapid editing. The only thing I haven’t found is a reliable handwriting to text converter, however this is a software issue and not the pencil.

    After a year of use I can say that it works excellent, the battery lasts approximately 4 continuous hours and it charges super fast. Double-tap features and ergonomic design make it easy to type for a long time. Quite resistant, I use it daily to take notes in my classes and I like its functions more and more. Recommended for apps like good notes.

    Time for an upgrade. An upgrade to an Apple Pencil

    Well I invested in the first Apple Pencil and loved it used it for 4 years. I finally felt it was time for an upgrade. So got me a new iPad Pro a protector case and a new Apple Pencil 2. I been enjoying this way more since I got it. I love how I can now just set it on a table and it will stop rolling when it hits the flat side. Also I love the fact I don’t need extra cables to charge it. It’s just completely awesome and well worth the upgrade.

    The battery life is better. Its lighter. The first generation pencil was awkward especially the charging port. I like that you can magnetize it to your ipad

    This pen is impressive. It’s very responsive to the pressure, angle, and speed at which I move. It’s also precise and stays on track. Plus it never loses its connection the the iPad and of course, the magnetic inductive charging feature is a giant leap from its predecessor. I love it. Only drawback, it’s overpriced!

    Takes the iPad to the Max.

    The Apple Pencil 2nd Generation from Apple is an excellent utility that takes the iPad Pro/Air to the next level. It improves on the original by adding some touch features such as tap to change brushes when you are writing. It also uses magnets to attach to the side of the iPad and to charge rather than use the lightening port like the 1st gen. My only complaint with the device is that connecting to the side of the iPad via magnet is not very secure if you are going to be transporting it somewhere outside of your home. Even inside my bag I feel I need to remove it and place it inside a pocket or some kind of case to ensure I don't loose it or damage it. It is an improvement over the previous model but I assume at some point Apple will create gen 3 with more features but that is probably going to be in 2022 now. For the current iPads this is the Pencil or "stylus" to get. Only the best in my opinion.

    I do a lot of sketching, and this helps a lot with the ability to charge wirelessly and the double tap to switch tools. Whether you’re taking notes or drawing, which I do both, this really helps out a lot. Battery life is great too because it’s constantly charging.

    Really like that it charges on the iPad. Big deal if you had the first pen; charging it could be a hassle at times. This pen is also great for creating notes that include short hand, pics and/or text, especially if source of the notes is digital. It’s a good addition to the iPad. I caught a deal so the price was extra right!

    Sleek design, very helpful for writing notes. I go to college and take lots of notes, this has definely made my life easier. My notes are now all nice and neat and organized in my iPad. The battery on the pencil lasts a long time which is a plus.

    This pencil works just the way I need. Perfect! Easy to charge and easy to use. I bought a cheaper pencil (no much cheaper) and was hard to charge and harder to use. I recommend buying this to use with iPad if you need one!

    The Apple Pencil is extremely useful in terms of: you don’t get even close as tired writing with this pencil like you do if you’re writing on paper with a regular pencil, and I love that because I write ALOT of notes. This thing is amazing.
