Customer Ratings & Reviews

The original pencil was a joke in my opinion. While it worked, the ergonomics were terrible. Charging via cable or through the IPad was poor design. The Pencil 2 is magnetic and charges while attached to the IPad. It's screen functions are precise. I still wish it was the size of a pen to fit in my pocket. Yes, I still wear shirts with pockets. It's good writing instrument but pricey.

Works great. Charges good. Draws nicely. Overall great product. Expensive.

This is my second purchase due to my daughters breaking my first pencil. The pencil works much better than generic compatible pencils for the iPad. I highly recommend the purchase

Works great. It was easy to connect, feels good in your hand, stays secure to the iPad when charging (magnetic), and writes smooth. It is very easy to toggle between functions such as writing and erasing. I once thought it was skipping when I was trying to write, only to find out that the tip was loose. Once I tightened it everything was good.

Love the pen. Not really concerned with the price because it does what it was meant to do very well. I love to doodle/sketch and i love being able to do that. Love the recharging/magnetic feature and the “double-tap” to switch some of the pen’s functions was a good add on from Apple. Would buy it again if I lost it and highly recommend it.

We bought pencil from Best Buy, it's worth for money.

Works flawlessly, couldn’t be happier with this purchase.

Excellent. Writes well. Very intuitive. Will recommend to anybody. There’s no lag when writing. Makes things easier. Saves time. You’ll enjoy using the iPad better. It’s an additional feature to like iPad. It helps in taking notes and writing stuff. I’m not good in drawing but this pen helps me a lot. I like it and it’s much better than the first one, so I’m told.

The 2nd Gen Apple pencil is perfect. The lifetime of the battery is pretty good, and the pencil performs well. it is user-friendly and light enough. The pencil tip is smooth.

Works great with iPad Pro, and enables some incredible input abilities that honestly compete with dedicated digitizers. The best upgrade here is that keeping the Pencil v2 charged up is fast & effortless (charging was a very-not-funny-joke on the original Pencil). I like the extra ‘double-tap’ gesture also.

I love this new pen. It attaches to the iPad magnetically, which is also how it charges. No more worrying about the pin breaking off or trying to use the iPad and having the pen be dead. It's been a great upgrade!

The standard to all mobile drawing hardware. Outpaces every other mobile stylus you can find. Light weight, magnetically clicks into place. Only thing near it would be the Surface Pencil 2.

Easy to use, easy to charge. I like the fact it attaches to iPad. It probably has more relevance for someone who uses their iPad for productivity and not just fun but it was a good purchase and I have enjoyed using it.

The best pencil for tablets period. I draw on it and use it to take notes which it is excellent at both. Battery life is long enough and the charging is simple and easy without the need for wires.

This pencil is so much better than the first generation! Easy to use, and works well. It is so nice that it charges straight from the iPad!

The pencil works beautifully just as advertised. There are other stylus’ that some people prefer and each have their specific focus but the design and feel of this along with the way it charges makes to be my personal favorite. I personally bought a certified refurbished and had zero issues - seemed brand new to me.

works perfectly has long lasting battery and charges at a fast rate

When I bought my new Ipad Pro 12.9, I also bought the pen to go along with it. I didn't know if I would draw much with it but I found myself using it all the time just to navigate the Ipad. Now I barely touch the screen anymore. With the pen being able to be attached to the side of the Ipad when not in use and it also charges while it's attached, it just make it super convenient to use. Can't imagine not having it now.

The Apple Pencil 2 is the best stylus available for iPad, and a vast improvement on the original. Magnetic charging, tap controls and a clean design make it a compelling choice for designers, and iOS tweaks mean it's improving all the time. But it will cost you.

The price I paid was low, online ordering and in store pickup was easy. I had the other knockoffs, they were OK but only the Apple Pencil wirelessly charges and is overall better for me.
