iPad Pro Be VERY careful w/ Apple pencil....

It DOES magnetically stick to the front of the Smart Cover.

I noticed that yesterday as well. I wouldn't say it "sticks" but it does hold it so it doesn't roll around too much.

Think will give it in my laptop bag where it holds pens when it arrives

The pencil is extremely fragile. So be VERY careful with the Apple Pencil. I dropped from a very small height and stopped working. The tip of the pencil is VERY VERY VERY fragile. Apple refunded me and I got another apple pencil and now I ALWAYS keep the pencil inside the original box...I´m even afraid to leave it on my pencil case.

I dropped mine in water. Not sure if that is a good thing but it is still working. Yours must have been really bad then.

Interesting reading this old thread - my pencil's still going strong despite it rolling of the seat of my truck one rainy day and landing in a puddle.

Battery life is (sticks finger in air) about 80% of new - still enough for a multiday charge.

Keep hearing rumors of a pencil v2 - given how much I love my v1, I'm certainly game for a v2 (along with the corresponding iPad that it works best with, of course!)

Glad to hear Apple came through for you OP. Mine has fallen 3x from about 3' up onto carpet and hard tile. Thankfully it is working just fine (unlike me who nearly wept each time it rolled off the table or fell out of the iPP sleeve). Yeah, I need a padded pencil case because my current solution is not good.

Mine has been working fine all these months. I have mostly dropped it onto carpet or other soft things though.

They give you a spare nib in the box anyway if you are unlucky enough to drop on a hard surface.

Mine has fallen from desk height onto ceramic tiles quite a number of tiles and it still works perfectly well. Usually when it falls, I do have to hunt around for the cap though, which flies off during the majority of falls.

More than the nib of the pencil breaking I am more worri d of the pencil making if atall using it make any scratches on my bare iPad screen.
