Do not buy the new USB C Apple Pencil and here’s why

[recoilbandit]

Apple is having a tantrum because they had to go to a usb-c port

[JohnP]

The appeal is I don’t wanna pay $130 for a pencil to take notes.

I understand making a cheaper version….but taking out pressure sensitivity is wild

[evanmurray]

The iPad 10th gen doesn’t support pencil 2, and the 1st gen has lightning which means you have to use an adapter to charge it, this one is cheaper and gives you the convenience of magnetic attachment for storage, respect your opinion but don’t use your platform to mislead ppl for views

I bought it, and the issues that you covered are definitely true/there. However, if you’re an iPad 10 owner, buy this instead of the Pencil 1.

It is a very important update for iPad 10 owners, but otherwise, if you have Pro 2018 or newer, Air 2020 / 2022 or Mini 2021, you should spend a bit more and get the ApplePencil 2.

[Wraith]

This is actually very smart on apple. It's targeted for people who don't draw or are students, which doesn't require pen/tilt/double tab or pen pressure, it's great for note taking and It's $50 cheaper, perfect for students on a budget.

It’s for the iPads that can’t use the 2nd generation. Plus it’s cheaper

[matanissler]

Actually, I bought this pencil and i really enjoy it. I'm a student, I don't care about all the pro features that the 2nd gen have, I just need it for writing notes. the battery is pretty good, i only need to charge it once every couple of days and it cheaper compared to the 2nd gen. I don't need to spend my money on features I'm not gonna use.

The market for this isn’t a new generation of pencil, it’s a good option for the people that just want a simple stylus for situating notes and using scribble

[charlomilk]

There are third-party pencils that already do everything the new one does, but at a substantially lower price

[lgyngnd]

It's for the iPad 10 since it doesn't support the gen 2 pen and it could also be a cheaper option for iPad mini users

[asdfjoe]

Apple being "brave" again delivering devices with deleted features.

"apple foreskin"💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

[KryzVR]

No one probably knew this but, apple made this Apple Pencil for people who wanted a cheap simple Apple Pencil

Apple six months from now:

"introducing the Apple pencil plus"

[MichaelR]

Pressure sensitivity is pretty important to artists, strange they'd remove it

[EmuCosmo]

Market appeal is my Apple Pencil which magnetically connects no longer connects. The ‘wireless’ charging is no longer working and it is an expensive item to replace and worthless now it won’t do anything. I’m buying the usb c one because now at least a manual charge means it should stay charged and not fail.

New feature for Apple Pencils!
