Which Apple Pencil Is Right For You?

- Apple recently introduced a new variation of the Apple Pencil called USB-C, which means there are now three models of Apple Pencil to choose from. So which one is right for you? Well that depends on which iPad you have, what features you need, and how much you can spend.

Apple doesn't usually make mistakes but I think they did here. Customers are too overwhelmed, confused, and sometimes mad looking to find the right one for them.
exactly. they should've replaced the 1st gen pencil with the USB-C one but also give it all the same features
If you know your Apple products then you know which Pencil to buy.It’s not difficult.
No customers aren’t confused they’re stupid
i suppose this is more for EU compliance than for actual sales.
Apple is becoming Samsung with way too many options.
The convenience of being able to pair and charge the Pencil 2 on the side of you’re iPad is the killer feature for me. The lack of pressure sensitivity means that only students will ever use the USBC one for me
sigh if only Apple came out with usbc when i got my ipad and pencil. im a student and uses the 2nd gen one; if usbc came out in the past i cldve saved a 100!!!!
@@yankee7238Hey guys, just buy a Galaxy tab, no need to charge a pencil, and the pencil comes free ;D
hey, it seems like you know some stuff! Can you help out? So I have like the Apple Pencil it’s says hoco on the side, is it not supposed to have the usb
@@MohamedGharib-1that's a copy, not made by apple, that's why
I don't need any of the features of the apple pencil 2, but having my pencil always be right next to my ipad, not to mention it's always 100% charged, that's all I needed to buy the pencil 2. I don't even use the pencil that much, maybe once or twice a week
If Apple Pencil (USB-C) had the pressure sensitivity feature. It would’ve been the model that I would recommend to everyone.
Unfortunately, no sadly that’s the reality we didn’t get was pressure sensitivity
I tested it out and loved it so much, the way it feels in the hand is superb... but had to change to gen1 because of pressure sensitivity and I have ipad 10 ;-; it feels SO MUCH WORSE
So which one RUclips sugest for ipad 10th?
gen 1 if you plan on drawing or painting anything, usb c if you want to use it for everyday use and note taking
@@qrandrea2160
no pressure sensitivity is ridiculous
unless you aren't actually drawing with it in which case I don't even see why having it is necessary other than being a glorified fancy stylus
I hate how the gen 2 doesn’t support I pad 10 gen
LEGITIMATELY SAME!!! I bought my 2nd gen pencil with my iPad 10th gen, and I was so confused why it wasn’t connecting. But now I know :/
Exactly!!!I really wish I will have Apple Pencil 2 but I suppose I have IPad 10 so there is no way.Hope Pencil 3 works...❤
@@kristalmelendez5100damn bro.. my condolences.. those stuffs arent cheap..
Tried my frend gen2 pencil with my ipad 8th gen and doesnt work.. so sad..
Did it work, i am planning to buy
@@adrianaa8841
Same 🥲
Just get the 2nd gen one, if your iPad is compatible. It’s not a huge jump in price from the 1st gen one, it has way more features, and it connects to the iPad on the side magnetically, where it also charges. It’s just way more convenient.
Hey Apple explained
That is a false advise. No iPad compatible with 1st gen Pencil that is also compatible with 2nd gen Pencil.
@@techken wdym? You can literally just plug the 1st gen Apple Pencil into a 2nd gen Apple Pencil-compatible iPad and it’ll work…
@@xXmlgamingXx355 False. You cannot plug directly a 1st gen Apple Pencil to any iPad compatible with 2nd gen Apple Pencil.
1st gen Apple Pencil only has male lightning plug while all iPads compatible with 2nd gen Apple Pencil only has female USB-C port.
@@techken did you not watch the video, or something? It literally comes with an adapter…
As someone who loves to take notes on goodnotes with the 2nd gen. The pressure sensitivity might not matter to me but believe me the double tap feature is something that you need. Its a crime to reach for eraser tool everytime you need it. With double tap the experience becomes more seamless.
1st gen cap is easy to lose, but 3rd party sellers quickly made little silicone hats for it that have a tether that goes around the body of the pencil, so it’s attached while charging. Also made a holder for the original lighting to lightening adaptor that wraps around the charging cable.
I noticed those on Amazon, but pretty sure they obstruct the pencil from going into it's designated slot in cases. There are also plenty of magnetic cap replacements if you lose the original. The cap literally doesn't do anything except sit there covering the lightning port, so imo it sounds like a good alternative.
If the new apple pencil is cheaper and connects the the tablet you have go for it , you are missing pressure sensitivity in the end of the day though, If you are a artist go with the first or second gen
Straight to the point, great video. Thank you!
Apple is usually really good at defining what each product is for, and creating a clear price tier of products. The naming schemes also tend to be pretty straightforward, without a bunch of numbers and letters that dont mean anything obvious.
But this is really, really weird. I think this Apple Pencils main purpose is just to be an Apple Pencil with a usb c port, just so that they can say they did it. Its not good value even if it is cheaper, because pressure sensitivity is a massively important thing for doing any sort of art with it. It sits in a weird position of being sort of in between the first and second gen, but also worse than the first gen. If it had pressure sensitivity, itd be a perfect replacement for the 1st gen. But the lack of sensitivity is such a big problem it means id never be able to use it.
sensitivity or not it can never be a replacement as (most) ipads that suport 1st gen dont support the usb-c one and vice versa
Thanks for the clear explanation. Great job!
Its nice to see more frequent uploads :D
Thank you so much that was short and very helpful
Awesome explanation. Well deserved the channel name 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
since the 1st gen says Air 3rd gen only does that mean the Air 4 and 5 are not backwards compatible? Yes I know it uses lightning, but what if I use a separate lightning charger to charge it?
Thank you so much sir, this video is helpful 🙏🏻❤
Love your content
Lovely video...keep up the great work! 👍
It would be fantastic if you could make a similar explanation about the different AirPods generations in the future :)
Apple emoji?!
@@itischeck
@@itischeck yeah
Thank you so much that was very helpful ❤
how do you get high res photos and what editing software do you use? so great
Thank you for clearly explaining something that apple really should be explaining themselves
I have the 1st gen and it’s a pretty nice Apple Pencil
This worked perfectly for me. I bought apple pencil 2 and I love it. My only suggestion is to make it easier to add periods,commas, etc.
I'm still holding on to the 1st gen. Even though they just announced the Apple Pencil Pro with great features. The 1st gen has everything what I need. Except hover support. That the only feature I wish it support. Since I use it for drawing.
I have the magnetic one (not the usb c but the 2nd gen)
very helpful! Thanks
For those looking for the music in vid it’s called piano moment by Ben sound
Thank u man❤
The 2 is the way to go
Having the pencil always avaivable is important
love this explanation!!
didnt know there was 3 lol i got the OG one years ago. My school sold it for cheaper
They really realized that 3rd parties are starting to hurt their pencil sales with cheaper, yet still decent alternatives, so they just made a crappier pencil for $20 cheaper than the OG pencil, which they've NEVER given a price cut! They're wild RN!😂
Exactly. I have two differing types of China made pencils which function just like the USB-C, and they came with the charger and spare tips too. Each cost below 20 USD. I’d be crazy to buy this USB-C Apple-branded junk
I have always wanted a second gen pencil, got a new iPad. If Apple can make it so that the phone detects whether someone is near to it, they can make it so that the second gen is compatible.
I love the first iPhone launches and Steve says “stylus? Yuck who wants a stylus?!” Then the Apple Pencil releases
Apple pencil was by timmy, not steve
No iPhone is compatible with the Pencil.
Welp, cuz it's just more comfortable to draw with a pencil, rather than a finger. For normal usage you use your fingers, but if you need to draw - there's apple pencil.
because the apple pencil is a drawing instrument and a stylus is a pointing device
Exactly, because the Apple Pencil was not made for the iPhone and it’s not a Stylus…
I think the apple usb-C without pressure sensitivity is about the same as the apple pen alternative, so I chose the $9.9 YEBOS pen, which is great value for money!
Gosh, I have the 1st gen and it never gave me an issue. I mean, is there really any reason to upgrade other than if it stops working? Kinda think Apple is fragmenting this part of their portfolio.
Brilliant video Greg
I would say for $79, most people would not mind the pressure sensitivity or wireless charging. They just need the basics. Nothing to complicated or confusing.
lol but any fake on Ali express for 20$ can do that. Only thing they lack is pressure sensitivity. That's whole reason people was buying originals cuz of the pressure.
@@24kCookieMusic $20, lol I had the real thing few years back just got one for a family member for $8 off Amazon which does the same thing imo
Can you make a video on why iPhone volume buttons are on left side and not on right side as most androids do
Actually, Apple pencil 1st generation do support hover by connevting it with iPad Pro 2022 with 3rd party app ❤.
Thanks for the video. Now I can buy the right Apple Pencil 😊
imo just buy 2nd gen. Yh it's more expensive but it lasts forever and just doesn't leave anything left to desire. And it just feels like an extension of the iPad so isn't annoying
This video didn’t even last a year and we have Apple Pencil Pro…
I have the 2 gen… no issues.
I dont rlly see the point in the usbc one but i would get it for the price if ur trying to get one for a lower price but 2nd gen is better imo u can js stick it ur ipad
Would you create iMac that skipped m2 please
My question is how the affordable apple pencil supports an exclusive iPad pro hover feature but not the pressure sensitivity a basic feature with these...
The LISA engraving is a nice touch
I prefer using the 2nd generation, it works better.
Only one will work for me (the $99 model) My concern is if I apply too much pressure, I could scratch up the screen. Is it made to avoid this?
You can probably buy a screen protector to fix that
i’m so glad I saw this video because I would’ve bought the Apple Pencil 2 without realizing it doesn’t work on my iPad 7th generation😬
i have usb c and its amazing, i would recommend it if your looking to buy a good pencil at a decent price unlike the 2nd gen. usb c works like a charm
Can usb c pencil tip can be replace with 2 generation pencil ?
Miss the times where we actually learned something from your channel bring back the long videos please
Will Usb c pencil magnetically connect and charge with the iPad 10th gen?
Will attach magnetically, but pairing and charge via cable.
i have a first gen pencil, and a iPad 10th gen and my pencil attaches magnetically?
All of this for a pencil. Top-notch “simplicity” from Apple
I have the 2nd gen one
I plan on getting either the M1 iPad Pro or the M1 iPad Air and I only have one USB-C charger for my M1 MacBook Air so I'll get the Apple Pencil 2nd Gen
am i the only one that likes the new apple pencil usbc? like pressure sensitivity isn’t that much of a problem for me considering i used to have an apple pencil 2 before it broke and i didn’t like the pressure sensitivity too much
If I wanted a pencil my only choice is the 1 gen
These go against so much Steve Jobs envisioned and implemented at Apple. Namely not having extensive, confusing, bloated product lines.
All you have to do is disconnect it from Bluetooth then reconnect,unless it’s completely dead like he said,but I like this method.
Why does Apple start to put the charging port in the most weirdest places for the mouse on the bottom and now this
I never realized there was a type c Apple Pencil!
Next pencil may have SCSI interface to charge and transfer data
It’s kind of sad that the 1st gen onl works on my iPad but not many features.
My favorite feature if it had it it would be attached magneticly
I’d say only get the Usbc pencil if you have the iPad 10
Whats the point of having tilt sensitive and no pressure sensitive option🤧
I have the hoco one what’s that one someone help I’m only new
Great. Now only if you would talk about "For Apple Pencils" as well. Yes the third party products that you would think they suck but price very rightly!
I'm sure that makes a great supplimentary video clip to this so look serious into this idea.
What's the difference between these & the cheap ones you get on Amazon/eBay for like £8? As someone who had the real one when I had a iPad few years ago at uni & just got a cheap one for a family member...I can't tell the difference. Insane pricing
whats the point of an apple pencil without pressure sensitivity
Pressure sensitive is not good cuz it makes it hard to draw grateful art so I prefer Apple Pencil usb-c
0:17 I’m also on an iPad Mini (6th Generation)
Which pencil is compatible with iPad Air 5th gen 2022?
All
Apple Pencil gen 1 is a nightmare for me cuz i have to charge it in the ipad, but the performance for was okay same for the gen 2 :)
Omg i forgot they had the adapter i was young when i got the gen 1
I’ve been using the Apple Pencil first generation for like five years now
Nice!
I am going to buy iPad air 5th gen so I think for me apple pencil 2nd gen is best cuz it have pressure sensetive !!
I don't get what is the point of usb-c port in Pencil. I got 2nd version and it charges wirelessly 0-100 in worldly 1,5 minutes. (like 2-3% per few seconds). Overengineering level hard
i bought ipad 10th bc i wanted it bc i thought it was cute and simple for me. yeah its so nicw but i hate the fact that apple pen 2nd gen doesnt support on it :( i have the apple pen 1 and yeah its good but…
lol I alr have an Apple Pencil but still watched this
Lack of pressure sensitivity in the new one is just ridiculous and makes it useless for drawing.
I have the 2nd gen
i like how you dont have to think about this when buying a samsung. the pen is inclusive...
Is rather stick with first gen Apple Pencil because I don’t see the difference in charging with the new usb c and the first gen
I think they release this ahead of time then axe the first gen pencil and upgrade all the iPad to gen 2 and USB C pencil next year. This is just to test the water how the product would work in the real world.
Is apple pencil 2 not compatible with iPad 10th generation?
Nopee
I have 1st generation one
if anyone comes across this comment, can you turn off pressure sensitivity with the 2nd gen?
Apple Pencil 2nd generation is the best.I know price is really big but feautures deserves your iPad
Once I upgrade my 9th gen. I’ll get the 3rd gen Apple Pencil
Can you please explain why Apple is obsessed with the color white? Like, why can they sell a pencil in black or any other color?
I know they want everything with USB C now but this is not necessary.
Steve Jobs would’ve gone insane
Mine is first gen
In 2022,
I choose the Apple Pencil 2nd generation rather than the Apple Pencil 1st generation when I owned the M2 iPad Pro 12.9-inch rather than the entry-level iPad 10th generation.
In 2023,
I skipped getting the affordable Apple Pencil with USB-C port when I added the Magic Keyboard for the iPad Pro 12.9-inch with Face ID.
Thank you for not doing like many of your compatriots do and make us feel like total idiots for not buying the top of the line everything from Apple. Not all of us are “Power Users” and don’t use our iPads for business, video or music production, artistic pursuits and other high demand situations. For some of us, the Gen 10 iPad and USB C pencil meet our needs just fine with our putting $1000 on the table for an iPad Pro and second gen pencil.
