Apple Pencil (1st Generation)

Overview

Apple Pencil expands the power of iPad mini, iPad Air, and iPad, and opens up new creative possibilities. It’s sensitive to pressure and tilt, so you can easily vary line weight, create subtle shading and produce a wide range of artistic effects — just like a conventional pencil, but with pixel-perfect precision.

Key Features

• The brand-new Apple Pencil enhances the versatility of Multi-Touch
• Provides added precision for tasks such as writing, drawing, or annotating
• Built-in pressure and tilt sensors can detect how much pressure is being applied and the angle relative to the screen, so iPad can tell the difference between a light press, a deeper press, and a tilt
• Designed along with iPad and iOS, it's precise enough to touch a single pixel, and so responsive that there's virtually no delay between what you draw and what you see on the screen
• iPad knows whether you’re using your finger or Apple Pencil, so you can use both at once on the screen
• Delivers 12-hour battery life, and when you need to charge, you can remove the cap from Apple Pencil and plug the Lightning connector into iPad*
