Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought the IPad Pro just so I can edit photos in the newly released (but crappy) Photoshop for iPad. You can get by with your finger but with the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) makes any sort of creative work so much easier. I found myself on the first day of owning Apple Pencil sketching and drawing on my iPad and I really don’t do that sort of thing. It was just fun to do, like I was a kid again. Get Apple Pencil if you’re an Artist, creative or Photographer. Or if you just have some extra money to burn, It’s Fun.

Very accurate and easy to use, the charging of this device is easy.

Dropped it but still working. Very expensive but good for art. Battery is good and charge very fast. Nice white color.

I upgraded to the Apple pencil to draw on Procreate as all of the reviews from youtube etc. that said save money on alternate brands did not pan out! Get the real thing - it saves time, money, and frustration.

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.

Love that I get to draw and create with this to make completely customizable things such as drawings for stickers or tattoos. Easy to use, soft and comfortable. Battery life is great. Thoroughly enjoy with a case that holds it and magnet charges it on the iPad itself too. Super cool

I’m using my Apple Pencil writing this review. My husband bought me my first Apple product recently, the IPad Pro 11. After reading reviews I thought I might like the pencil to go with it. I decided to get it and So far. I’m glad I did. Still learning all its uses. I do like using it as a stylus and tapping is so easy. I tried the notes and I feel this will be very handy. Love how smooth it is. The magnetic storing and charging is also a nice feature. My husband tried it on his pro and now he wants one too.

I am a bit of a digital pencil girl ever since the Galaxy Note phone pencils (before the blow ups). I have the first Apple Pencil, and I never used it much because it was a lot of work. You had to remember to charge it, be able to find it, it was heavy, etc. Long story short this pencil is light and easy. Apple really thought about the user. It charged itself. I just have to remember to set it on the edge of the iPad. My pencil problems are solved. I use it much more often than the other one.

Great product to use with my iPad pro. Excelent battery

Single greatest accessory to the iPad pro. I use my iPad for school, and this makes it 10x better- and worth every penny I paid. I have gone 100% paperless since buying these two items (and a few others). I have never had an issue with the battery life, as when the pencil is not in use it finds a good home magnetically attached to the side of the iPad. The pencil feels good to hold in your hand, even for long periods of time. The only thing I have yet to determine is how long the apple pencil tip will last.

Definitely better experience than the first version of the pencil. Feels better in hand, charges magnetically and doesn't have the removable tip.

This is a game changer for anyone with an iPad! Can write more, it charges seamlessly in cases. My only gripe is that I need it to have a cover on so it feels more like a pen and the tip is easily changeable.

I started with the 1st gen, but it was a pain to charge. Then I got some non-Apple pencils, but never really loved them. I finally caved and got the 2nd gen Apple Pencil and I’ll never go back! It’s very responsive, easy to hold, and charges so much easier.

I got this to go with my son‘s iPad mini, but unfortunately it is not compatible. It works with my iPad so we kept it but just to make sure that you check the compatibility before you buy it. I just figured it was the newest iPad mini, so it would go with any of the pens, but that was my bad. It works great with my tablet though.

This pencil is a great addition to any ipad. The battery life is amazing and the touch sensitivity is great. I love the magnetic charge feature, makes it much easier to charge. I would much rather have this version than the gen one. Being able to tap to switch between the pen and eraser is so handy for writing notes.

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.

Apple Pencil — 2nd Gen is great. Comfortable enough and a nice weight. The battery life has been better than I expected - used it all day taking notes, as well as downloading and then taking notes right on the presentation slides. Four hours continuous note taking. No prob - Super awesome! Only drawback is that pencils and pens habitually get dropped, or scooted off the desktop, or flung when fidgeting with them goes wrong. Mine hit the floor twice. Carpet is forgiving. Travertine is not. Mine tilts just a bit to one side.... but still works well. That’s an expensive lesson. I’m going to have to buy the cap from the 1st Gen. Really, I guess I wish it was an Apple Click (pen) so the tip would retract and be protected.

This is my first 2nd generation. Much better, Apple! Charging by sticking it on the iPad? Genius! It’s so smooth and glides along the surface like a paintbrush. The tip is fine enough to write like I like to. Drawing is amazing. No need to keep up with ends or tips or chargers. It just magnetically sticks to the iPad and charges that way. I don’t do anything without it.

I got this or replace of another one I had bought and it had exceeded my expectations. It is so smooth and can be used with so many if not all of the apps. I use it every time I use my iPad and the convenience of charging it on the side of your iPad rather then having to plug it in makes it convenient and hard to lose.

This thing is great! Charges well, magnetic link is far more reliable and convenient than having the pencil dangling out of the charging port. Feels good to write with, and accuracy is good. Recommend a screen protector like Paperlike for a truly enjoyable writing experience.
