Apple released a pencil that doesn't charge, another one that can't pair, and now the one that won't even work with an old iPad? Sounds like they're drawing up some confusing plans over at Apple
It's just plain abuse of status and forced segmentation by apple. The folks over there know the people really using their ipads depend on specific apps and the ecosystem, who are too deep into the ecosystem. Apple could just as well put all of the features into one basic pencil, but, no, that would affect the segmentation between the pro tablets and the non pro ones. Ffs, it's 2024, almost every android tablet in the same tier comes with a high refresh screen, but not the ipad non pro models. But hey, people need their ipad apps to work and create.
No, the old one doesnt work due to the new camera pencil, so thay had to redesign the pairing and charging mechanism. This is because magnets would interfere with the camera system.

Actually it’s not that messy. The only confusing part is the naming. The Apple Pencil Pro should just be called Apple Pencil 3 (because it’s the successor to the second gen similar how the second gen was to the first gen) and the USB-C one should be called Apple Pencil 2 Light or Apple Pencil 2 SE, since it’s just on cheaper version of the second one. With that naming scheme it would be obvious which one is compatible with witch iPad and how the features compare.
@@lukchemI would argue, it is a mess. All they had to do was make all the new iPads support the apple pencil second generation. Makes no sense why they didn’t make the Apple Pencil USB-c support the wireless charging and pressure sensitivity.

only buy the pencil 1 if your ipad has a lighting port. only buy the usbc apple pen if you have the 10th gen ipad. buy the 2nd gen if your ipad supports it. buy the pencil pro if you have one of the 2024 ipads.

I'm an artist looking to buy an ipad at some point in the future and just assumed that buying a pen.. would ultimately give you all the functions... I don't really see a point in having such an expensive pen if i was a normal user... so i assumed that the pressure sensitivity was the MAIN buying point 😭
I have an ipad bc i also need to draw (to create stuff in games) and i tried all the pens out now that work on the latest ipad and the gen 1 is the best one possible and this video mentions that it doesn't have the magnetic feature but mine does and its still gen 1 so i recommend (if you are still planning) to buy the gen 1
Apple pencil is literally the only reason i'd consider an iPad, yet they decided to mess with them. Now that Samsung tablets come with a pen while being cheaper and has better compatibility with other non Apple products, buying an iPad really makes no sense.
Fun fact: I have an apple pencil 2nd generation and a m2 ipad pro 11 inch and i can confidently say that the magnets are not in the dead center but infact, there are 2 magnets in the pencil and the ipad which means they could’ve fit a camera that didn’t have an ois anyways along with the magnets, the only reason they changed the design is so that people buy the newer and better ones even though everybody knows m2 is more than capable enough to handle ipad apps. The only stress i faced on the ipad was prolonged gaming sessions and video editing which would be slight faster but most of the people won’t feel the difference unless they look at it side by side.
0:20 according to apple 1st gen pencil is only compatible with iPad mini (5th generation) iPad (6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th generations) iPad Air (3rd generation), not every iPad in the lineup
I see where they’re going with their pencil strategy. With the new iPad Pro and Air, you have two options, the cheaper USB-C pencil or the pencil pro. And i think they want to keep only these two pencils in the future, so when all iPads will be refreshed you’ll just pick if you want the cheaper pencil or the pro one. But since not all iPads have been updated yet they still have to sell all four pencils and it makes everything confusing
That would make sense but I also can see Apple releasing new iPad 11th gen without support for Apple Pencil Pro and leaving you with only Apple Pencil USB-C as an option to encourage you to get at least Air… Of course, for the sake of all of us, I hope I’m wrong
The first gen Pencil isn’t compatible with all iPads. It only works with lightning iPads, and the 10th gen iPad (the 10th gen is the only USB-C iPad the the first gen pencil supports) Even with the adapter, it doesn’t work with all USB-C iPads, for some reason (according to the compatibility list on Apple’s website)
I’ve read on a reddit post that the gen 1 works with gen 2 compatible ipad How? - You need the apple pencil female to female dongle, the one included in the box of the pencil 1 - Lightning to usb c cable - Connect the pencil to the ipad Now the magic happens with an app called lightblue which allows you to connect to hidden bluetooth devices or in this case the apple pencil 1 Just click apple pencil to pair with it and enter the code 1234 Then it’ll pair and work (Just found this on reddit with the reddit user trying it out on his M1 ipad air and his apple pencil 1)

@spooky622 It's not about forcing. It's about the fact that you literally will have to buy a new tablet in order to use a new apple pencil. I'm using an IPad pro 12.9 2018 and Apple Pencil 2, and they are very good. But what if, for example, someone like me will have to upgrade the model. You will literally not be able to use the Apple Pencil gen 2 on the new model.
the og lightning apple pencil 1st generation does actually support pressure sensitivity, but the apple pencil usbc doesn’t, i suppose that explains why its 20 dollars cheaper than the lightning one
I love the haptic features of the Pencil Pro a lot more than I thought I would. My biggest complaint over the 2nd Gen Pencil, was that I would accidentally activate the double tab feature, which would switch my current brush to an eraser (or vice versa). This caused so many mistakes that I would disable it entirely. I still do this with the Pencil Pro, but at least I feel it now and can switch it back before I make a mistake while drawing.
I told my mom immediately about the Pencil Pro when it was announced, because she draws on her iPad a lot. But I hope she didn't buy one because she's gonna have to buy a new iPad if she did.
I actually have the first gen Apple Pencil from 2015. It does have pressure sense but I don’t have an iPad Pro, I have the 8th generation iPad (since it was new at the time)
Off topic but: 0:25 This, made my brain click. And now I’m just waiting for my iPad Pro to update so I can try the lightblue workaround I heard of. If it works, thank you :D. If it doesn’t, well atleast it reminded me my Apple Pencil still exists and I should use it on my old iPad someday.
I prefer the USB-C one because it's more practical for note-taking. I'm not an artist, so sensitivity doesn't matter to me, and I can charge it without removing my pencil or iPad from their cases👍🏻
Definitely messed up after the Pro release. Making it compatible with older iPads would cut the 2nd gen out making the Pro and USB C the only 2 models to think about. Would be more cost effective to focus on them and less confusing in the end.
The Apple Pencil Pro it’s just working on the iPad Pro M4 the largest one to 13 inch and 11 inch and the iPad Air 11 inch and 13 inch and theiPad mini 7️⃣
I bought a 3rd party jmmq pencil off temu for less than 6$ it worked flawless on the new ipads and old ones. It even sticks magnetically to th side doesnt charge but it still works. It would be interesting to see if a person cant charge the pencil on wireless charger but still use it on the older generations.
I got an apple pen 2nd gen for Christmas & it’s almost a week after and the pen just isn’t working- I can’t draw with it although it’s connected and charged fully, the double tap system works and the tip is not broken and not even damaged since it’s brand new😭 I honestly don’t know why it’s not working or if I just got a faulty one. My dad got it for me and I still have the case/box so I might just exchange it for a new one- I don’t know if I can tho? Seriously why is it so hard to just get a properly working item😭
My Apple Pencil second generation hasn’t been working for months it shows up when I put it on the charging at the top but it doesn’t want to pair up so I give up I’m getting a non Apple iPad Pencil
I bought an Apple Pencil pro today because ive wanted an Apple Pencil for 2 years since I’m a beginner artist wanting to improve. When I bought it, it wouldn’t work with my iPad Air generation 4. I’m not able to return it as well because I’ve also ordered it to write my name on it so returning it is impossible. Now I have to get a new iPad Pro or I will never be able to use my Apple Pencil. ☹️
Just to confirm, this is taken directly from Apple Store: Keep extra tips for your Apple Pencil at the ready. Compatible with Apple Pencil Pro, Apple Pencil (2nd generation), Apple Pencil (USB-C), and Apple Pencil (1st generation). Made by Apple.
apple always has to over complicate things. i simply wanted to buy a new ipad that could work with my old apple pencil gen 1 and i went down this rabbit hole of trying to figure out what’s compatible with each pencil and if i should just give in and buy a new one.
Apple Pencil 2nd Generation does not work on the iPad Pro M4s, only the Apple Pencil Pro. It's so frustrating because I want to upgrade my iPad to the new one, but my Pencil works fine!!! God damn it dude.
it’s only for the fancier ipads just like those multitasking features i bet our ipad airs could do hover detection but apple wants to keep features exclusive to the newer lineup
My momax does the same and has pure sensitivity and does everything as the Apple Pencil and I’ve been using it for 24 hours and its on 70 percent I’m not even kidding I drawed so much with this.
-*Casually scrolling through youtube* -*sees this video* -*comments "why the fuck would I even buy apple shit"* -*Casually closes this video* -*living in peace*
Barrel role is such a gimmicky feature. I tried it in the store, no way I would draw with that on. I'll stick my my 2nd gen pencil and first iPad Pro as I use mine solely to draw. Apple did iPad bad by still keeping it to iPadOS.

I bought a 3rd party jmmq pencil off temu for less than 6$ it worked flawless on the new ipads and old ones. It even sticks magnetically to th side doesnt charge but it still works. It would be interesting to see if a person cant charge the pencil on wireless charger but still use it on the older generations.
I have an iPad Air 4th gen. I want the best one I can get. Would that be the 2nd gen then?
I got an apple pen 2nd gen for Christmas & it’s almost a week after and the pen just isn’t working- I can’t draw with it although it’s connected and charged fully, the double tap system works and the tip is not broken and not even damaged since it’s brand new😭 I honestly don’t know why it’s not working or if I just got a faulty one. My dad got it for me and I still have the case/box so I might just exchange it for a new one- I don’t know if I can tho? Seriously why is it so hard to just get a properly working item😭
what iPad are you using?
@ IPad Air 4th generation, it was also working a few days ago so I don’t think it’s an issue with my iPad
I bought the Apple Pencil adapter for my iPad Pro m4, but its not compatible. 😭
Ugreen take notes on the chargers this feature would be sick
2:15
You can charge your apple pencil gen 1 on the ipad 6 and higher
Thank you for this video, i was thinking of buying a new ipad and pen soon so this really helps with the decision
My Apple Pencil second generation hasn’t been working for months it shows up when I put it on the charging at the top but it doesn’t want to pair up so I give up I’m getting a non Apple iPad Pencil
I bought an Apple Pencil pro today because ive wanted an Apple Pencil for 2 years since I’m a beginner artist wanting to improve. When I bought it, it wouldn’t work with my iPad Air generation 4. I’m not able to return it as well because I’ve also ordered it to write my name on it so returning it is impossible. Now I have to get a new iPad Pro or I will never be able to use my Apple Pencil. ☹️
sorry to hear that ☹️
My usb-c has the same problem as the Magic Mouse where the part where I rest my finger to draw, the charger plugs in
I can't believe Apple managed to over-complicate designing a PENCIL. 🤦♀️
Also is the Pencil Pro pressure sensitive?
Thats why I use apple pencil first generation bcuz of the pressure sensitivity
Do you know if the nib is replaceable in case it gets worn out? The older pencils, they are. 😊
Just to confirm, this is taken directly from Apple Store:
Keep extra tips for your Apple Pencil at the ready. Compatible with Apple Pencil Pro, Apple Pencil (2nd generation), Apple Pencil (USB-C), and Apple Pencil (1st generation). Made by Apple.
Is the iPad Air m2 the same as iPad Air 6th gen? (I can’t speak English sorry for my grammar)
My iPad being 9th gen so only the 1st gen one works.. 🙈
apple always has to over complicate things. i simply wanted to buy a new ipad that could work with my old apple pencil gen 1 and i went down this rabbit hole of trying to figure out what’s compatible with each pencil and if i should just give in and buy a new one.
good explanation great demonstration kudos❤
Apple Pencil 2nd Generation does not work on the iPad Pro M4s, only the Apple Pencil Pro. It's so frustrating because I want to upgrade my iPad to the new one, but my Pencil works fine!!! God damn it dude.
Guys wake up Rotton Apple uploaded.
If you are buying an Apple product and the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is.
just use the 2nd gen for all ipads 😭 i got a 2nd gen and i have ipad 7 (not compatible)😢
Theres a typo here, 3:41, it should be, "releasing".
"theres a typo here" 🤓
@@pretty_bored i was just informing him about that, since i dont think anyone pointed it out.
@@CrustyHead2465 ok
I just bought the iPad Air M2 and got the choice of getting any Apple Pencil for free so ofcourse I went for the Apple Pencil pro
Apple Pencil 2 doesn't support Hover feature or is it locked too M... iPads cause my Air 4 doesn't support it
it’s only for the fancier ipads just like those multitasking features
i bet our ipad airs could do hover detection but apple wants to keep features exclusive to the newer lineup
Okay, i need help, if i buy 10th gen and pencil type c, what do i do with it? I should have a cable? Or?
yes but it should come with one
4:10 into this you finally find out that the Pencil PRO in incompatible!
Will Apple Pencil usbc magnetically attach to the new iPad Pro like the Apple Pencil pro?
I don't think so, since he mentioned that the magnets are somewhere else.
My momax does the same and has pure sensitivity and does everything as the Apple Pencil and I’ve been using it for 24 hours and its on 70 percent I’m not even kidding I drawed so much with this.
Not air m2 anymore tho TT
are the tips is the same for every model?
ipad 10th gen does is compatible with apple pencil usb-c.
Those pencils are more expensive than my rent
Rent is not $100 unless you live in a third wall country
@@v1nce502 I live in Greece and the rent is 260€ but I live with a friend of mine and the rent splits so I play 130€
0:24 the only one i can use
3:26 not mine
First Pencil doesn’t work wit iPad mini 6. Only Apple Pencil 2 or Pencil type c
the iPad Pro didn’t realease may 15 bc I got it April 4

Great video. Great info. Thanks, brother.
I have a first gen and 8 love it (minus I sat on it 3-4 years ago and almost snapped it in half so its hanging on to life 💀)
The Apple pen 1st is only for iPad 10 gen and 9 gen or older iPad ! Not for all
the apple pencil 1st gen can snap on newer ipads like the other 3 btw
wait is this rottens first sponsor or not cause awesome cable!!!
Barrel role is such a gimmicky feature. I tried it in the store, no way I would draw with that on. I'll stick my my 2nd gen pencil and first iPad Pro as I use mine solely to draw. Apple did iPad bad by still keeping it to iPadOS.
Im just gonna keep using my Apple pen ripoff from amazon LMFAOOO
Love ur pfp fr

What did he dip his feet in???
The thing with the first apple pencil was misinformation. It is only compatible with the iPad 9 and 10th generation. (in current lineup, just 10)
The Pro pencil is perfectly compatible with my brand new iPad Pro M4. Haven’t got one yet but I reckon I will soon.
me watching and taking notes as if my ipad isn’t an 8th gen
How did they mess up pencils 💀
Watching on m2 air , the magnet is above the front camera
