  • Apple last week began shipping out the new USB-C Apple Pencil, so we thought we'd check it out for MacRumors readers who might be interested in purchasing one. The USB-C ‌Apple Pencil‌ is compatible with all iPads that have a USB-C port and that are running iOS 17.1 or later.
    When it comes to design and feel, the USB-C ‌Apple Pencil‌ is much like the second-generation ‌Apple Pencil‌, featuring a matte finish and a flat side where it can attach to the iPad, but it's worth noting that it's shorter. Unlike the ‌Apple Pencil‌ 2, it is not able to pair with an ‌iPad‌ automatically, and you'll need a USB-C cable for pairing purposes.

    It seems like it works like all those cheap pencils available. Ones that don't have to be paired. I have one for my iPad Air. I bought the Air because I wanted to see if by having a M1 processor I'd use it with my work. Film Editing. It didn't work out that way. My previous iPad was the 9th generation it it was just as functional as this iPad. The iPad has one function it does well, drawing. Otherwise it's too locked down to be an effective tool.

    Very useful video. I think this does fill a niche. I have a 1st Gen pencil. Bought the 5th Gen iPad Air earlier this year. Bought the Lightning to USB-C adapter for Pencil they sell.
    Turns out I didn’t read the fine print on that adapter close enough. It’s only compatible with the 10th Gen iPad, which doesn’t support the 2nd Gen Pencil and my iPad won’t pair with a 1st Gen.
    So that was confusing. Looks like this Pencil does pair with both. But the product page doesn’t mention it’s missing the pressure sensitivity.
    If it was just the charging difference I’d probably save the $60 CDN. But losing the option for pressure in art apps to me is a lot bigger than the double tap.
    So I finally pulled the trigger on a 2nd Gen to take advantage of their Black Friday gift card deal (which makes it more like a $25 difference).

    • @DavidWarrior360
      @DavidWarrior360 Před 2 měsíci

      If there’s silver at the top that means it’s a 1st generation which has a lightning connector that attaches to your iPad without a cable.
      If there’s no sliver at the top and it doesn’t have the pull-out cap then it’s probably a 2nd generation which charges by magnetically attaching to your iPad.

  • @lalelu1202
    @lalelu1202 Před měsícem

    I wish the USB C pencil had an actual C male, like the 1. Gen has a lightning one to just plug it straight into the iPad.
    Since my 10. Gen iPad is not compatible with 2. Gen Pencil, I have to get out a charging cable every time I want to use the pencil (and with my 1. Gen pencil a lighting/C adapter on top of that).
    Would have definitely upgraded to the USB C pencil but if I have to get out the cable either way there is literally no point.

    iPad 10th gen (Oct 2022) is only compatible with Apple Pencil (USB-C) OR Apple Pencil 1st gen WITH a USB-C adaptor. Weird that it isn't compatible with Apple Pencil 2nd Generation. I was curious about WHY Apple created this iteration that seems like a backward step, and was expecting that it would be MORE backward compatible than it is. My husband suggested that the USB-C option is to make it compliant with European regulations, which is probably true. And, as you mentioned, it is a more economical choice. For me, (especially by finding that one seller who discounts the Apple Pencil second generation) the Apple Pencil 2nd gen is the only logical option - sometimes it is more cost effective to buy the upgraded product ONCE, instead of repent and buy the upgraded product after having purchased the basic model! (But, seriously, Apple does some weird and dumb cost-cutting maneuvers on their premium priced products - NO cable? Really?)

If I were to use that cable would I have any problems or incompatibilities between the pen and the iPad?

      Of course it is, but it is not compatible with the 10th gen iPad…not to mention the fact that it is more expensive in other countries, which can cause greater price differences. Otherwise, if my iPad was compatible with the second gen, I would have definitely bought it, but it is not, so I bought the USB-C version.

I already have a Pencil 1 that I've been using but I'm tired of having to pair it with a USB C adapter, I wanted the ease of use that comes with simply attaching it magnetically to the side. But, no. Apparently landscape cameras and snap-on keyboards are more important and the 10th gen iPad was released without the capability of using a stylus that attaches magnetically. Completely backwards. Seriously. Ain't NO goddamn way I'm pairing or charging a fucking stylus with a USB cable in 2024.
