abunda_amazon_reviews The Good: -Pairs instantly with IPad 11 Pro -Easy charging on side of IPad -Comfortable to hold -Writes flawlessly -Good balance The Bad: -A bit expensive The Bottom Line: I use my Apple Pencil 2 everyday as I take notes with my IPad Pro 11. The Apple Pencil 2 is a definite upgrade to the Apple Pencil 1 almost just because you can charge the pencil by attaching it to your IPad. This feature alone makes the Apple Pencil worth buying. The Apple Pencil 2 also has no lag and write flawlessly. It is very comfortable to hold. The only downside is the pencil is a bit expensive but that’s common for most Apple products. Overall, I would recommend the Apple Pencil 2 if you have a new version of the IPad Pro.;;Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2020;;4.0 out of 5 stars;;Worthy of the upgrade from Apple Pencil 2;;Hoppaguy;;;I am an amateur artist trying to learn how to do digital art. As someone who is used a pencil and paper, I have had a hard time transitioning to the new medium. However, this device has made it very easy for me to make the transition. If you’re a traditional artist trying to get into digital art, I would definitely recommend getting this.;;Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Great tool for artists.;;Amazon Customer;;;The pencil worked for an afternoon. Woke up this morning to use it after it had been at 100% and on the iPad overnight to find the pencil completely dead, and no longer recognized by my new iPad Pro 11. Called Apple support immediately and trouble shot both devices to no avail. Now I have to make an appointment at the Apple store to have my brand new devices inspected and possibly replaced...neither are over a week old! I wish I had followed the reviewers’ advice on apple.com and never made this purchase.;;Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2019;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Not worth it;;MFresh;;;I love using my Apple Pencil 2, just am not a fan of the high price - especially when dropping $900 on the 11" iPad Pro. I wish Apple would throw it in or at least let you add it for 1/2 price at the time of purchase. It's such an essential tool, especially if you're a digital artist or like taking notes by hand rather than typing. As for apps that rock with this: Notability for note-taking and ProCreate for graphic design. Match made in heaven.;;Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2019;;4.0 out of 5 stars;;Works Great, just Many $$$;;Raymond Larose;;;Visually there seems to be not too much of a difference from the first release of the apple pencil but this iteration 2.0 is definitely worth the upgrade! Charging and connecting is so super easy now. The pencil reacts super well for drawing, sketching, drafting and to me as an interior architect especially well with autoCAD, morpholio and other drawing apps. The tab on the pen to bring the eraser to front makes my workflow so much more enjoyable. Although it doesn't seem like much that Apple has added one flat side to the overall round pencil design it makes such a huge difference in holding comfort. The fact that it attaches magnetically to the side of my iPad pro is super helpful as I don't have to look for the pencil any more. It is right were it belongs to be while not being in the way. Absolute buying recommendation if you are a heavy graphics designer or even just a casual user. It is also just a whole lot of fun to interact with the pencil on the iPad!;;Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;flawless workflow integration worth the upgrade;;ChrisCr0ss;;;New, the box in perfect condition and unopened. Perfect functioning!;;Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Perfect!;;Dibujados | Miguel Brito;;;Pairs to the new iPad so easily and I love that it charges without having to be plugged in! Apple really listened to what we wanted changed and did it! As an artist, I love this so incredibly much;;Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Works perfectly!;;Samantha;;;Bought this in March 2019 along with an iPad Pro. Both items were sold by Amazon as "new." This past week the pencil died. No big deal, there's a one year warranty. However, Apple informed me that the warranty on my pencil's serial number expired already. The Apple warranty department is reviewing this as I was able to produce an Amazon receipt showing that Amazon sold this to me as "new", but they told me this was not the first time they've seen this. I think for me, this is the final straw with Amazon, coupled with reports of them banning books based on political viewpoints, I'm done giving Amazon my Prime money. As for the pencil, it makes using the iPad easier, but shame on Apple for milking $130 from people for something that should cost no more than $50. Incidentally, we checked the serial number on the iPad. At least Amazon got that right.;;Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2019;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;The most expensive pencil in the world, plus - was it "new" Amazon?;;ML
