Our take on the Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) A2051

The Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) is Apple's stylus for iPad Pro, iPad Air and iPad mini models that use the flat-edge magnetic design. It pairs and charges by snapping onto the iPad's side, and a touch surface along the barrel lets you double-tap to switch tools without lifting the pen. It adds pressure and tilt sensitivity and low latency, so it suits note-takers, sketchers and people marking up documents. Against the USB-C Pencil it adds pressure sensitivity and wireless charging; against the Pencil Pro it lacks squeeze, barrel roll and haptic feedback, and it does not work with older iPads that use the first-generation Pencil.

About the Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) A2051

The Apple Pencil (2nd Generation) is a stylus for select iPad models. It has a flat, magnetic edge that snaps onto the side of the iPad. Once attached, it charges wirelessly and pairs automatically over Bluetooth.

Double-tapping the touch surface, right where a finger rests, changes tools, brush sizes or modes. The taps can be customized to switch between the tools used most. Pressing harder makes thicker lines, pressing lighter makes thinner ones, and tilting shades. The iPad ignores a resting palm, so it can be used like a pad of paper.

The Pencil can be used to take notes, sketch, paint and color. It can also mark up emails, screenshots and documents in apps such as Keynote. The seamless design has no connectors or moving parts. It can be engraved.

How does it charge?
