    The second gen Apple Pencil is a marked improvement of the first. First there is no fiddly cap to lose. Second charging through wireless technology attached flat to the iPad, instead of plugged into the bottom and protruding out seems like a much safer solution, while also providing a handy place to park the Pencil when not in use. The instant connection via the wireless charging is moot has expected from the firs gen pencil. Battery life is excellent and augmented by the ease of charging.

    Feels much more like a pencil. Love the flat edge so it doesn't roll away and magnetic charging is smart.

    Slick way to enter data. Once I figured out the printing style needed, I have been very successful entering text by hand and having it converted to print. The pencil is artistically agile for drawing and editing. I'm glad I purchased the pencil. I wish it came with a clip so I can put it in my pocket without the fear of it falling out.

    I've used this pencil a few years now and had to upgrade my wife's from the 1st Generation. She loves it and is the best pencil out there. I use mine daily for journaling, business notes, drawing and illustration. Great battery life and was a game changer for me.

    I love how this pencil feels in my hand and the “feedback” you get from writing on the screen. The pencil writes so smooth and it’s just a wonderful thing. The pencil charges quick as well. It’s awesome that it magnetically attaches and charges in the iPad itself.

    Pencil is pretty good but eraser needs work

    This pencil is awesome because it allows me to easily write in legible notes and annotations in music as well as write for education purposes. I wish it had an eraser feature though where i could flip the pencil around and just erase like normal... while i do appreciate the double tap on the side of the pencil for the eraser option, i would use the pencil normally and the pencil would randomly change to the eraser option because the pencil is very sensitive to touch... i would give this product 5 stars only if the apple pencil had a fixed eraser mechanism or one like a regular pencil. Oh also this pencil is way too overpriced... like this pencil should've been maybe at the most $40 but it was a hefty $130... like it is just a pencil.

    When I purchased my new iPad I mistakenly thought I could use my original Apple Pencil. Nope! Time to give Apple more money since they don't have enough. It is much easier to use than the original Apple Pencil. It is nice that it can charge wirelessly and does not need to be plugged into the charge port on the iPad. The price went up from the first pencil. It's Apple after all. I do recommend it and I use it 90% of the time I am on my iPad so I guess it was worth it.

    I recently purchased the Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) in white, and I'm thoroughly impressed with its performance. The precision and responsiveness of this stylus are unparalleled, making it an indispensable tool for digital creativity. Its sleek design and seamless integration with Apple devices enhance the overall user experience. The magnetic attachment for charging is convenient, ensuring that the pencil is always ready when inspiration strikes. While it's a bit on the pricey side, the Apple Pencil justifies its cost with its exceptional build quality and functionality. Whether you're an artist, student, or professional, the Apple Pencil delivers an exceptional level of control and fluidity in your work. Highly recommended for anyone seeking top-notch stylus performance.

    This pen is so lightweight and fluid and with the latest iPadOS 14 update, I can’t see how it could get that much better. I came from a MS Surface and the pen is $30 cheaper but DOES give this one a run for it’s money. Specifically the eraser being on the other side on of the pencil. I will say though in practice, the double tap feature of erasing on the Apple Pencil feels great when drawing. 2 weeks in and I don’t see myself returning this. Lol

    Improvement over Gen 1

    I had the original Apple Pencil but didn’t really use it a lot. Partially because I didn’t have an application I used often for it and because it was something I would need to remember to bring. With the new iPad Pro and the new Apple Pencil it is great that it charges wirelessly via magnets on the side. This allows me to take advantage of the Pencil. I do wish that I could allow the Pencil to be stuck on the top or bottom of the iPad though. When I’m reading in portrait mode the Pencil is in the way on the side of the device. I don’t want to put it down on the table as having it with the iPad is very handy. The responsiveness of the Pencil is as close as you can get to a real Pencil on any device today. I find myself using this to mark up PDFs and other documents for work which helps save on the amount of times I print. Price is a bit higher than I would have liked but so far it has been worth it.

    Makes my school life much easier! With this Apple Pencil, I was able to take notes directly from lectures online without having to print them out or take notes on notebooks. It is super easy to use. It has the tapping thing that can help you switch from pen to eraser easily if you make mistakes. The magnetic one the pencil is also great since it would just stick to my iPad every time, which reduces my chances of losing it.

    This is my second Apple Pencil. It is a great addition to the new IPad. I love the integrated magnet to hold the pencil to the iPad. It also charges while docked on the iPad which in my book is a wonderful plus. The IPad also displays the pencil’s charge which is also very helpful. I do not use the pencil to its full potential but intend to explore its possibilities.
