    • Difference in Apple Pencils-recommend for pressure sensitivity
this apple pencil has LASTED! i order it for my old ipad 6, in 2018, i have the ipad 10 now and it still works the same. when you get the ipad 10 with it, you need to get the lighting to c-type adapter. they have a c-type pencil i have also now purchased, but it doesn’t not have pressure sensitivity like the first gen has. although the c-type pencil is magnetic and this one is not. ... show more

    • Product exactly as shown.
I have been using the Apple pen for several years now. I bought it to draw on my iPad using ProCreate. It is a straightforward tool. Only drawback is that the “eraser” top isn’t strongly magnetized and sometimes comes off. Otherwise, it feels nice and works well.

    • It really grew on me
Did I really want to spend $100 for a stupid stylus? No, absolutely not. However, I wanted to be able to do some handwritten notes in OneNote on the iPad Pro. Pros: As many have noted, the lag is negligible (one of my main gripes on the Surface Pro 3) The weight of it is very nice and the writing natural I first thought it was fairly dumb to have to be plugging it into the bottom of my iPad to charge, but it really does charge quickly I am able to write in very fine detail Cons: The battery life is about the same as the iPad itself, which for a stylus, is not very impressive (but this balances out by the speed in which it can charge) It's very expensive The detachable cap is d-u-m-m (dumb). Very easy to lose. I would highly suggest paying the few dollars for the cap tether. It really has no home with the iPad (doesn't have a stylus compartment and/or loop Because of this, I bought the magnetic sleeve which allows it to stick to the edge of the iPad In my opinion, Apple should make multiple tips available. If you are like me, I don't particularly like the feel of writing on glass. I would much rather have a rubber like tip, as opposed to hard plastic, to give just a little more resistance when writing, so that it feels more like pen/pencil on paper. But, I have certainly been able to adjust to the feel of the writing the way it is. I know my cons list is longer than the pros, but considering the purpose of the pencil, the pros have it by a long-shot. I have really grown to enjoy using the pencil and use it almost daily. ... show more

    • Great stylus, will probably cost more than you think in the long run
I recently got an iPad for school. I go through tons of notebooks as I’m an avid note taker so I wanted a more ecofriendly alternative. After looking at reviews I originally decided to get a cheaper alternative to the Apple Pencil. It was good for tapping and scrolling, but it was rough to take a lot of notes. I knew it wouldn’t work during lectures where I have to write fast so I finally decided to give the Apple Pencil a try. Worst thing I just return it. I got the pencil quickly and immediately took to GoodNotes 5 to test my handwriting and compare it to a cheaper alternative. Instantly I knew the Apple Pencil was superior. I don’t have a screen protector so the writing was super smooth and effortless. Its sensitive so you don’t need to press hard, but not too sensitive you’re getting accidental marks on your document when the stylus gets too close to the screen. I don’t draw so I can’t say much on that, but after some trial notes I can say this is a really amazing stylus especially if you like to take “pretty” notes. There are a few things I’m not too big a fan of, however. For starters, it’s a very smooth pen. It looks beautiful and sleek but it’s hard to write for a long time and it gets painful. I’ve poured a ton of money into this switch to digital notes and it looks like I’m not done. I’ve seen some videos of people recommending a silicon grip cover for the pencil which is beginning to look like a must have. The last thing is the magnet. Supposedly the Apple Pencil can connect to the side of the iPad via magnet and stay while you’re not using it. The magnet is very weak and I would never trust it to actually stay on my iPad. It’ll be nice to keep the stylus from rolling away when you’re not using it, but I think I’ll be looking for somewhere else to store it. In addition you will need to replace the tip of it eventually. I haven’t had to yet, but it does come with 1 spare tip. Additional ones can be bought at Apple. Overall, I will always recommend this stylus especially if you need features like pressure sensitivity, but keep in mind you may also need a silicon cover and potentially a matte screen protector (if you want it to feel like paper). If you’re not someone who writes or draws often and are just looking for a basic stylus to tap, scroll, and occasionally jot down notes I would save your money and go for a cheaper alternative. Pros: Pressure sensitive Great for notes Accurate Cons: Weak magnet (could be my iPads issue though) Hard to hold after long periods of time Can be costly in the long run ... show more
