    The Apple Pencil 2nd Gen is a creative wizard! Precision? Nailed it! The double-tap feature is like magic for switching tools, and charging is a snap with the magnetic attachment. It's so comfy to hold, you'll forget it's not a real pencil! No smudges here – palm rejection works like a charm, and the pressure sensitivity is spot-on for all those artistic details. Specifically made for iPad Pro pals, but if you're serious about doodling or note-taking, this little gem is a game-changer.

    It's easy to use and the way it charges saves space. I do find it a bit annoying how expensive it was to get.

    This Pencil comes pre-sharpened! Attaches magnetically to the iPad and charges with USB-C cable [Just as the magic keyboard and iPad do.] Artist Wife loves it!

    I was sort of forced to buy this when I upgraded my iPad to a Pro, but I’m so happy I did. Everything is an improvement over the original Apple Pencil. It draws smoother, stays connected better, has better pressure control, and the wireless charging is a godsend.

    Even if you are not an artist, having an Apple Pencil will drastically improve your iPad experience. You can use it to take notes quickly, to annotate files and draw up plans in a variety of apps. It charges easily and quickly, and the integration with iOS makes for a seamless transition between apps.

    Awesome pencil. Never have to charge since it is always attached. Feels like a regular pencil and is pretty durable. Much better than the first gen pencil

    Easy to hold and use. I like that it magnetizes to the iPad and does not have to be charged separately. I hate that it does not work for my new model iPad Pro m4. I didn’t know that before hand now I have to get a new one - bummer!

    Having been using iPads for years, I have used the pencil as well. Not that I am into graphics design any longer, I just use it occasionally. This version is leagues ahead of gen 1. Easy to charge, and the fact it will magnetically attach to the iPad Pro is awesome.

    Apple Pencil is Amazing

    I picked this product up for the express purpose of using it with my 2018 Ipad Pro. I will tell you that you could waste a lot of money trying to find a suitable pen to use and you would be better off just buying the one you know will work. It has the weight that one would expect in an actual writing utensil with the capability to give the user the tactile feel of real world results. I am using it for everything on my ipad and it makes selecting text or objects a dream. The art programs are plentiful but the capability the pen has is best showcased by two apps I have used so far. PROCREATE and Adobe Sketch. I have used it for a sculpting program as well as I have to say it has enhanced my work.

    Absolutely ESSENTIAL.

    Bought this along with the 12.9" iPad Pro as a gift for Mother's Day. My mom is a digital illustrator and designer, and vacillates between paper sketches and working on her Wacom Cintiq. The iPad Pro seemed like the next logical step, and the Apple Pencil really should come *with* the iPad, as the experience simply isn't the same without it. It is an absolute must for the serious designer looking to get the most out of their investment. I haven't used it as extensively as my mom has (after all, it's her) but I can say that the Pencil is weighty, and feels more natural in the hand than any other writing utensil I've held. Charging is easy, it is incredibly responsive to the slightest tap/pressure or the angle with which it's held (important in regards to brush strokes!) and feels very sturdy. Again, even if it added to the iPad's price tag, the Pencil should come WITH it, as it really completes the iPad experience.

    Love using this with iPad Pro. I bought a new iPad to help teach distance learning and realized the pencil would be something I could really put to use!. It made writing on assignments so much simpler and much easier to draw angles, quadrilaterals etc. on whiteboard mode in Zoom.

    This was gifted for Christmas. The intended use is for drawing on an iPad mini. The drawings are coming out amazing with this pen. This pen is used for so much more & it works well with no issues or complaints. I’m a happy customer!

    The Apple Pencil came quickly, brand new, and exactly as described. It was easy to use out of the box and met my expectations. I use it to draw on the iPad and it works fine. I wish it was cheaper, but it works very well and is easy to use.

    There is little to be surprised with if you are buying this product. It functions exactly as advertised. It's not exactly like writing with a pencil as you are still writing on glass. After some use, it feels pretty natural. Battery life is great. Charges quickly. Weight is not an issue for me.
