During Apple’s Let Loose event, the tech giant introduced the latest additions to its iPad lineup, including the new iPad Air and iPad Pro models, alongside the debut of the Apple Pencil Pro. This new stylus, marking Apple’s first venture into the Pro-branded pencil category, is tailored for compatibility with the M2 iPad Air and M4 iPad Pro models. Priced at Rs 11,900, the Apple Pencil Pro offers a suite of advanced features, such as squeeze gestures, dedicated hardware for haptic feedback, and seamless integration with the Find My network. Interested consumers can begin pre-ordering the Pencil Pro starting today.
Acknowledging the significant impact of its predecessor, Apple affectionately refers to the Pencil as “the beloved accessory.” With the introduction of the Pencil Pro, the company aims to elevate the digital pencil experience to new heights, particularly for creative endeavors, by introducing support for double-tap gestures. These enhancements bring the Pencil Pro closer to the functionality of styluses typically associated with dedicated writing or sketching tablets, while retaining the core features of the Apple Pencil 2.
Further enhancing its usability, the Pencil Pro adjusts the orientation of brushes when tilted during drawing sessions, offering a more intuitive and responsive creative experience. Additionally, users can leverage hover gestures to preview tools or brushes simply by hovering the stylus above the screen, further streamlining the creative workflow. With these innovative features and seamless integration, the Apple Pencil Pro sets a new standard for digital creativity on Apple’s iPad ecosystem.
Designed with digital artists and creatives in mind, the Apple Pencil Pro incorporates a new sensor within its barrel, enabling precise control and nuanced interactions with digital tools. Additionally, it boasts compatibility with the Find My network, providing added peace of mind for users concerned about misplacing their stylus. While lacking a USB-C port like its entry-level counterpart, the Pencil Pro seamlessly attaches to the iPad Air or iPad Pro magnetically for wireless charging.
