Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) ​​​​​​​

A must have with the iPad Pro (2018)!
Now, let me preface this review by saying, this is arguably, the best stylus on the market. There is no equal to the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) a.k.a. Apple Pencil 2 besides maybe the current Surface Pen but even that needs an uncommon AAAA battery that people would specifically need to hunt for.PROS——1) Incredible precision and accuracy while writing/drawing.2) Instantaneous output the moment it comes into contact with the device3) Useful “double tap” gestures4) Robust and high quality unibody design5) Charges wirelessly by attaching magnetically to side of iPad Pro6) Magnetic attachment provides a means of storing your Apple Pencil7) Building off of, #2, Introduction of iPadOS reduces latency and improves performance for Apple Pencil 2.CONS——1) No spare tips in the box despite being MORE expensive than the 1st generation Apple Pencil (which just so happens to include a spare tip in the box) so take good care of your stylus.2) Eats into your iPad Pro’s battery reserves3) Relying on the magnetic attachment to store your Apple Pencil may not be the best long term solution to ensure safe storage and preservation of your device’s battery.NOTE: Look for a case that will give you an option (like Zugu’s Muse Case)Truthfully, the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil should be labelled as the Apple Pencil Pro for 2 reasons:-1) It only works with the current generation of iPad Pro (2018)2) Apple has released 2 tablets after the iPad Pro (2018) namely the iPad Air (2019) and iPad (2019) and both these devices are only compatible with the FIRST generation of Apple PencilAnyway, that’s besides the point. Truth be told, this is an expensive accessory but if you’re committing to purchasing the iPad Pro, it is a waste if you don’t get the Apple Pencil 2 having committed that much money. Despite the steep price, I have to admit that it’s worth it especially if you want to take notes, write and/or draw.This second iteration is superior to its predecessor in every way. It charges and pairs wirelessly without having to stick it into a lightning port (the iPad Pro has a USB Type-C port where as other iPad models still use lightning), there’s no cap to lose that covers the lightning plug since it’s a unibody design and it can attach magnetically to the device without having to look for a means to store it.Apple could have approached pricing in one of two ways:-1) Price it at the current level WITH AT LEAST ONE SPARE TIP in the box.2) Keep the pricing of the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil the SAME as the 1st Gen model with NO spare TIPS in the box since it is a superior product.So, is this item worth the money? Yes.Is it value for money? I’m sorry to say, it’s not despite me having purchased this item.However, if you do make the plunge, you won’t regret it. The nib is very durable but since Apple has included spare tips with the 1st Gen of Apple Pencil, it’s a shame they don’t for the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil especially at the increased price point.

Useful with compatible iPads
10/10 recommended if you have an iPad and 0/10 recommended if you don’t. Definitely super useful to make notes, annotate PDFs and do anything else with iPad. Could’ve been cheaper. I’ve not tried any alternatives but I doubt they’ll be as good.

Apple Pencil 2 is a superb device! I just got this item and it paired and charged effortlessly with my iPad mini 6.Build quality is fantastic. You can feel the premium nature of this stylus, from the feel of the plastic, to its weight and balance in the hand. The tip appears robust and is designed such that it has only a little resistant on iPad screen while not making too much of a tap noise while writing.The usability of Apple Pencil is superb in iPad OS. The pencil can be used to navigate iPad screen outside of apps. Inside apps such as notes, and other specific apps that allow pencil input, it works flawlessly. Latency and accuracy are imperceptible and perfect respectively. Functionalities such as double tap on pencil to change selection of pen or eraser is a nice touch. Pressure sensitivity, angle response are as expected.The pencil attaches magnetically to side of iPad for storage and charging and draws minimal charge from iPad. Charging is rapid… within seconds you have a usable stylus from flat.The Apple Pencil requires Bluetooth to be active to remain paired… if switched off the pencil needs to be repaired by enabling Bluetooth and attaching to side of iPad. This is the one big advantage over the cheaper USBC version:.. pairing is so much easier and does not require cable connection.If you can get this on sale sub 100 pound, I’d say it’s worth it over the USBC version.My Apple Pencil came with a charge of 60 percent so it seems this hasn’t been lying around in stock too long.All in all a superb device. I’ll update as I continue using it.

L’Apple Pencil 2 est un véritable atout pour tous les utilisateurs d’iPad. Dès la première prise en main, on sent que ce stylet a été conçu avec soin pour offrir une expérience fluide et agréable. Il tient parfaitement en main, avec un poids équilibré qui donne l’impression de tenir un vrai crayon.Ce qui frappe le plus, c’est la précision. Chaque trait, chaque ligne que l’on trace est reproduit avec une fidélité impressionnante, sans aucun décalage. C’est un vrai plaisir, que ce soit pour dessiner, annoter des documents ou simplement prendre des notes. Le double tapotement pour changer d’outil est une fonctionnalité tellement naturelle qu’on se demande comment on faisait avant.Mais ce qui rend vraiment l’Apple Pencil 2 spécial, c’est sa charge magnétique. Il se fixe facilement sur le côté de l’iPad, ce qui évite de le perdre, et il est toujours prêt à l’emploi. Pour quelqu’un qui l’utilise régulièrement, c’est un gain de temps considérable.En somme, l’Apple Pencil 2, c’est plus qu’un simple accessoire. C’est un outil qui enrichit vraiment l’expérience sur iPad, en la rendant plus intuitive et plus agréable. Que vous soyez artiste, étudiant ou professionnel, il ajoute une nouvelle dimension à votre utilisation quotidienne de l’iPad.
