Apple has recently unveiled the latest addition to its stylus lineup at the May 7 event – the Apple Pencil Pro. While many were anticipating the release of the Apple Pencil 3, this new iteration is bound to impress with its enhanced features tailored for artists and productivity enthusiasts.

Here are some key features of the Apple Pencil Pro:

– The design and magnetic charging remain similar to the Apple Pencil 2, but with added haptic feedback for a more tactile experience.
– The inclusion of a vibration motor provides subtle taps to confirm successful gestures, a useful feature for precise interactions.
– Users can now utilize a squeeze gesture that can be customized for various functions within drawing apps like Procreate.
– The double-tap gesture from the previous model is also present, offering quick access to tools with a simple tap.

Additionally, the Apple Pencil Pro boasts a gyroscope for adjusting pen and brush orientation by tilting the stylus. Find My support allows users to locate their pencil if misplaced, similar to other Apple devices. The hovering feature enables users to preview strokes without touching the display, aiding in precise selections and adjustments.

In terms of compatibility, it appears that only the newly-revealed M4 iPad Pro will support the Apple Pencil Pro. This exclusivity could be due to a redesigned magnetic wireless charging system specific to this model.

The Apple Pencil Pro is set to launch on May 15th at a price of $129. Here’s a breakdown of current Apple Pencils and their respective prices:

– Apple Pencil Pro: $129
– Apple Pencil 2nd generation: $129
– Apple Pencil USB-C: $79
– Apple Pencil 1st generation: $99
