Apple Pencil (1st generation) - Technical Specification
Overview
Apple Pencil expands the versatility of 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 — all with pixel-perfect precision, so it’s as natural to use as a pencil.
Apple Pencil (1st generation) pairs and charges via Lightning.
