Well..me. I've owned and used pretty much everything, from Cintiqs, through Intuos tablets to Bluetooth iPad stylus'. The cintiq was fine, but (as you'll often see in reviews) has a little lag and the thick glass of the display tends to throw your accuracy off. The Apple Pencil, on the other hand is incredible. The tracking is spot on, tilt recognition is very good (although that specific function is slightly better in the Intuos pens) and it just perfectly weighted. The iPad Pro actually doubles the display scanning rate when it senses the pencil too, a feat which no other iPad stylus can match. In doing so, it rather hammers the battery but I'll take the hit for the performance it gives.

Make sure you know which iPads are supported before buying. Also this is no longer supported by Adobe so no guarantee it will work with their apps.

Why is no longer supported by Adobe, isn't this a relatively new product? Did it not take off or have they released newer models?

This seems to be a better option that the Apple Pencil

Only for non pro systems that don't support the Apple Pencil. If you have an iPad Pro, the pencil is the best option. It's more accurate than even Wacoms finest. Best thing Apple make IMHO.

"Ink & Slide are designed to work with iPad 4, iPad mini (all models), and
iPad Air (1st generation).
Note: There is a known, intermittent issue with the iPad Air 2,
in which Ink stops drawing mid-stroke. This will require Adobe SDK
(software) updates to resolve
