apple pencil

Apple has announced a new Apple Pencil with USB-C port for charging and pairing. The price is USD 79.

This supports tilt sensitivity, palm rejection but there's no pressure sensitivity, and not shortcut functionality. When attached magnetically by the side of compatible iPads, it will go to sleep to conserve battery life.

Apple Pencil hover is supported only on iPads with M2 processor.
