I keep telling everyone that this new Apple Pencil is a one size fits all meant to do the most basic Apple Pencil tasks across all of the iPads. This leads me to believe that they may be cooking up an “Apple Pencil Pro” that will only work with the Pro iPads and will tout features such as Find My and the touch capabilities, magnetic pairing & charging, pressure sensing, and possibly even a small speaker hole and lanyard connector like the new AirPods 2! They’ve already stopped selling the 1st gen Pencil and are currently dropping the price on gen 2 to relieve stock. I think eventually both will be gone and we will have two options: Apple Pencil and Apple Pencil Pro, replacing both the 1st Gen and 2nd gen
I agree because this new one was working with the 10th gen which has the camera in landscape hopefully if they make a new ‘pro’ pencil it will have the magnet/charging to one side so the next pro/air/mini iPads will also have the landscape camera?
@@Anonymous-vh9tc I have an iPad and the Apple Pencil goes with it like peanut butter and Jelly so yes I’m equally as invested in the pencil as I am in the iPad itself 😂😂😂
As an iPad 10th user, it’s been annoying and stupid connecting your type c cable, using the adapter and plugging in the pencil. But now it makes it much easier to charge your iPencil
Thanks for the informative unboxing and review Aaron. It's great to see the new Apple Pencil with USB-C in action. The compatibility with a range of iPads is a big plus and the fact that it's more affordable is a win
it is a good price but try to find the second gen pencil at a lower price like 90/100$. I have a usb c pencil that’s pretty much the same as this apple pencil except for the hover feature (its a Zagg pencil) and its great and all and works perfectly for note taking but believe me on this one, you’ll forget to charge the pencil and it’ll take you off guard in classes. It may seem as a little thing or not as important but it does make a difference to always have your pencil charged vs sometimes not having it charged and therefore unusable for 5-10 minutes, it gets annoying eventually. I think the 30$ extra of a gen 2 are worth it for that solely reason of the magnetic charging, its always at full.
I bought the 10th gen and the usbc pencil and I love it! I think it’s compatible and budget friendly, baring in mind I’m not an artist nor do I do hard editing etc
I have the same Apple Pencil that he is talking about but I have been trying to do the things that he does like the plugging in the iPad and the pencil but is didn’t say anything 😅
This seems like a good solution for the standard iPad, as the Apple Pencil 1 was ridiculous with the 10th Gen. For my iPad Air, I’ll stick with the Pencil 2.
I've had my Apple pencil 2 since 2020 when I had my 2018 Ipad pro 11 inch. Sold that ipad but kept the pencil. Using it with my m2 ipad pro and works very well. Still has great battery life despite my pencil being almost 4 years old. I don't see what improvements that can make to the second gen pencil to make it better and I use mines all the time.
I’m currently waiting for Amazon to deliver my Apple pencil usbC, I got it for an odd reason. I can’t draw and I’m not a student but I just bought a 10th gen iPad and I love it but hate how after a fraction of a second of use it’s covered in fingerprints and smudges. It’s not as big of a deal on my iPhone but drives me crazy on a larger screen. It also was only like 70 dollars and the iPad was only 320 dollars too
Hi Thank you about this video. I just wonder if I wanna check the battery left about the pencil, It is the only way to connect with I pad? or I just can check it on widget without any connection like fairing thing...??
yeah the widget called batteries (i think that’s what it’s called) it doesn’t give you a number as far as i’m aware but it shows you how much battery it has with a green ring
Evening Aaron 😊 I’ve bought 3 Apple Pencils in the past over the years, the first one stuck out of the iPad like a sore thumb, the other two clipped on the new iPads, but I never used them or the iPads, wasted so much money and found each year I bought the new Pro’s, I could do things quicker on the iPhones. So, I’m not tempted this year, but thanks as always for the info! ❤x
I am a very basic musician user of iPad (no drawing or art) and was on the fence about shelling out extra for the iPad Air for better Apple Pencil integration. Your video showed me exactly what I needed to know: the pencil usb C will work perfectly with iPad 10 and since I don’t do art, it has all the features I need + the elegant magnetic storage. Thank you ❤️ the savings on the pencil and iPad 10 vs the higher performance options (that I don’t need) will be significant.
Did you tried to pair it again in Bluetooth Settings? I use my second gen on multiple devices and for me that would be a big deal breaker having to plug it in each time!
i have the ipad air 5 and pencil 2. Use it mainly for work, class and some entertainment. Pencil 2 cause I do artwork sometimes. But for someone else I know only needs the pencil for writing and non-art stuff then I recommended the adonit neo pro. Since it charges magnetically too
Can someone tell me if I’m able to trade my Apple Pencil for the USB-C port one? I’m buying a iPad gen 10 but I need an Apple Pencil that can support the ipad
may this apple pencil is cheaper than 1st gen, but it's no reason to make usb-c version requiring to use cable to paring and charging, the 1st gen pencil just connect directly to ipad and much easier to use
Can you be drawing on the iPad with the Apple Pencil (USB-C) while also simultaneously be charging it by connecting to iPad/Power Bank at the same time?
im a tattoo artist. i use my ipad to draw out my designs. this apple pencil sucks ! the worst part is not being able to double tap to switch to eraser. takes up a lot of time going back and forth between tools. also the fact that i cant charge it magnetically is really inconvenient. dont recommend for ANY artist
my partner and i each have the 2nd gen apple pencil for his 5th gen ipad air and my ipad pro 6th gen. i don’t see a reason for either of us to get this new one, as he’s a basic user and having 2 would be redundant, even though in a vacuum, this latest one would suit him better.
So it's basically the same as my $20 amazon pencil with the tilt but no pressure sensor except the $20 one will charge usb-c and has wireless charging and pairing
Thank you so very much for content I really appreciate it if I wanted to buy this will it pair to my iPad Pro 10.5 inch n I think they need to make pencil for the iPhone n call it the feather pencil but that’s just me ❤😊
I have a ninth generation iPad so with the lighting port, if I were to buy an Apple Pencil USB-C can I connect it to the iPad using the iPad charger cable? the cable has 2 ports, a lighting (which goes into the ipad) and a usb-c (the one that goes directly into the charger). If I were to use that cable would I have any problems or incompatibilities between the pen and the iPad?
It would be interesting to pair the Apple Pencil (USB C) to the 9th gen iPad… 🤔 Don’t forget that that iPad came with the Lightning to USB C cable, so you could plug it in to the USB C end.
color me IMPRESSED when you pushed up the charging port and then pushed it back down now if only apple could have this creative thought process in their other products bc this is 10/10 and almost makes me want to upgrade to a new ipad just for the pencil alone :D
Do you use an Apple Pencil and will you be picking this one up? Thanks for watching, it is always appreciated.
I use the Apple Pencil Second Gen with my iPad Air 4th gen. It's the perfect combo for me cause I am in College!
Not worth it
No, i won't , I'll use Microsoft Surface Slim Pen 2
Because I am obsessed with Microsoft
I use a 2nd gen with my 2018 12.9" Pro. Got all of it refurbished for the same as an Air 5

Too invested in an accessory, take a walk bro
Sounds scary but possible they might remove gen 1 and gen 2 replace with this usb c charging and you called it a pro

Seems like a great Apple Pencil to pair with the iPad 10th Gen. It almost seems like that’s specifically what it was made for 😅
Knowing Apple, I'm surprised they didn't restrict this pencil to the iPad 10 and charge the same amount as the Pencil 2.
Why would they remove the pressure sensitivity!?
It’s really cool, how the cap doesn’t actually come off. One less thing to lose!
Thank you for sharing! Just wondering does it automatically pair back after it goes to sleep and wakes up?
Yes it does
Do you have to pair it every time you want to use it on one device or will it be ‘remembered’?
Thanks Aaron ..
It stays paired with whatever device you’re using it on. The only time you have to pair it again is if you switch devices.
I’d take the gen 2 but since I’m taking notes for class, the USB-C pencil looks appealing because of it’s price
Seems to be a lot of compromises for the price though, better to get the AP2 on sale or find a second hand one tbh
@@User57655 for me, the pressure sensitivity isn’t a big deal. I wish it at least had the tap controls
it is a good price but try to find the second gen pencil at a lower price like 90/100$.

just get a 3rd party pencil for $20, dont get the USB-C version, its way too overpriced
Great video as always Aaron. Can you use while charging ?
it charges pretty fast so maybe this doesnt matter but just curious if you can use it while it is plugged in?
I recently purchased the new apple pencil as showcased here, but yet it wont pair. What do I do?
buy a new one
do you have to pair it everytime you use it with the same device?
No, it stays paired to the last device
@@zollotech thank you!
Can I use it on iPad Air 2024?
What happens if you try to stick a gen 1 or gen 2 to the iPad 10? Gen 1 is presumably not magnetic but what about the overhang?
It seems like a step backwards to have to plug it in to pair and charge.
Hi, I buyed the pencil and now it charging in my 10.9 iPad but the pen don’t work 😢 please tell what’s wrong.
Update iPad OS
Thinking of picking one up glad it works with the iPad Pro 2020
So do you have to plug it in every time you use the same iPad?
Hi Aaron, can I draw on the trackpad of a macbook with that pencil?
No, that wont work.
Hi thanks for information
I have ipad 10th and don’t know how to choose between apple pen USB-C or first generation
What do you think?🌹
Unless you need pressure sensitivity, type-C is better.
I bought the 10th gen and the usbc pencil and I love it! I think it’s compatible and budget friendly, baring in mind I’m not an artist nor do I do hard editing etc
Which button you clicked that it show how many percent It has
Do you need the adapter for this pen ?
@@ASIIIULKA91 you can use the same charger that the iPad comes with usbc to usbc
@@defnotayxan I have the devices widget to usually check there but also when you plug it in it says the percentage at the top
@@luvlihyunjinyou can also check it in Bluetooth or Apple Pencil settings too
For iPad Pro 3rd generation which one is better 2nd gen Pencil o this one type C . (For normal use ) thansk
I have a iPad 10th gen but I don’t know what Apple Pencil to get any suggestions? Also I’m a student
Good detailed information about new pencil. Big thumbs up.
I’ve been unable to pair to my ipad 10 Gen. I even reset to factory to see if having a generic stylus connected was the issue and still nothing 😅
I have the same Apple Pencil that he is talking about but I have been trying to do the things that he does like the plugging in the iPad and the pencil but is didn’t say anything 😅
Does it support the palm of the hand?
Which button you clicked that it show how many percent It has
I Need To pair it every Single time?
Say in a few years, the battery died…can it be used with the cable plugged in?
Where we get connector for usbc and the price of usbc connector ?
This seems like a good solution for the standard iPad, as the Apple Pencil 1 was ridiculous with the 10th Gen. For my iPad Air, I’ll stick with the Pencil 2.
That's what I thought, stick with Apple pencil 2.
For some reason mine doesn’t hover. I’m using 10th gen iPad
Can i charge it in a normal head of electricity cables?
I've had my Apple pencil 2 since 2020 when I had my 2018 Ipad pro 11 inch. Sold that ipad but kept the pencil. Using it with my m2 ipad pro and works very well. Still has great battery life despite my pencil being almost 4 years old. I don't see what improvements that can make to the second gen pencil to make it better and I use mines all the time.
does the usb c apple pencil attach magnetically to the 10th generation ipad?
Can you charge and use at the same time?
iPad 8.nesile uyumlu mu lütfen gördüyseniz cevaplar mısınız internette bulamadım 😕
There is a way to use the First gen Apple Pencil with usb-c iPads. And Even the First gen Haus Apple Pencil hover. I tried it 😅😅😅
I’m currently waiting for Amazon to deliver my Apple pencil usbC, I got it for an odd reason. I can’t draw and I’m not a student but I just bought a 10th gen iPad and I love it but hate how after a fraction of a second of use it’s covered in fingerprints and smudges. It’s not as big of a deal on my iPhone but drives me crazy on a larger screen. It also was only like 70 dollars and the iPad was only 320 dollars too
Question, once paired with a particular iPad, you don't have to pair every time you turn on that iPad? Would appreciate info thx
Surely not, that would be insane, I assume once paired with an iPad it stays paired with that particular iPad
It always stays paired with the iPad that you are using and you don’t have to repair it every single time, thankfully
how does it perform in procreate since it doesn’t have pressure features
Can you share the wallpaper for iPad? For iPhone on the site you shared, it seems to be incompatible with iPad.
Hi Thank you about this video. I just wonder if I wanna check the battery left about the pencil, It is the only way to connect with I pad? or I just can check it on widget without any connection like fairing thing...??

Is it gonna work with 6th gen ipad?
Zollotech makes the best videos ever :)
does this need a thunderbold cable to pair or can it also use a usb-c cable?
USB-C
Hi.. so nice video I was confused of what Apple Pencil I should buy for my iPad 10th and urs helped me a lot
I have the basic IPad 10th so I’m considering it. How long does the battery last compared to the 1st gen?
Ok so I got the new pencil but it not connect with my I pad and my I pad is a I pad air 5th gen
Aron, keep doing what your doing man! You are the first person I go to if I need some information on an Apple product! Thanks dude!

U have to pair it every single time u wanna use it????
Or just when switching to other devices
Hello. Why is engraving not possible?
To hell with HOVER, they went backwards not allowing it to charge/pair magnetically. Who the hell wants that‽ pass!
Does it work on the iPhone 15

Oooh this why my 2nd gen stopped working. A new one is out 😂
Sad it’s not compatible with the 2nd gen iPad Pro 12.9inch but compatible with the 1st 2nd gen iPad Pro 11inch.
Being a little shorter should work well with the iPad mini 6
i put the cable in there but its not connecting

I can’t see myself trading my 2nd Gen with touch sensitivity, wireless pairing for this. Touch sensitivity is non negotiable for me.
YES it attached magnetically to the ipad 10th Gen 👍🏼👍🏼
No pressure sensitivity? That is going serious hobble many artists. I use pressure sensitivity pretty much all the time when drawing. 😠
My pencil can’t connect 😕
Will keep my gen 2 pencil but if don’t have a pencil already it looks good.
It can actually connect via Bluetooth by attaching it to the side.
So it's basically the same as my $20 amazon pencil with the tilt but no pressure sensor except the $20 one will charge usb-c and has wireless charging and pairing

Does it work with iPad pro 10.5 inch, 2017
No
it requires an usb-c ipad.
No pressure sensitivity. 🤷♂️
Can this apple pencil work on ipad Gen 9th
no, 10th only. Have to use the 1st gen pencil for iPad 9th gen and older.
Nice unboxing and review tho ive never found interest in apple pencil
Where is iOS 17.2 beta 2???
It would be interesting to pair the Apple Pencil (USB C) to the 9th gen iPad… 🤔
Don’t forget that that iPad came with the Lightning to USB C cable, so you could plug it in to the USB C end.
I strongly agree
I know it doesn’t work, but I wish you would’ve plugged it into the iPhone just to see what it would do other than that great video.
It owuld charge it, but not do anything else.
apple pencil 2 >>>
Just bought my apple pen on this video and it doesn’t turn on or pair
Most likely you don’t have the correct one for the iPad you have
I’ll be picking up one of these to go with the next gen iPad Air.
Let’s go Apple.🍎
Don’t pick this up for the iPad Air, pick up the 2nd gen pencil.
thank you ❤
so it's apple pencil light 2nd gen
color me IMPRESSED when you pushed up the charging port and then pushed it back down now if only apple could have this creative thought process in their other products bc this is 10/10 and almost makes me want to upgrade to a new ipad just for the pencil alone :D
... um no.
You forgot to answer the one question that some of us are asking: will it still work while plugged in to the iPad, or is it as useless as the 1st gen?
You’re right. I just tested it and it works while it’s plugged in.
