iPad Pro 2021 tipped to launch with Apple tree Pencil 3 — video shows off new await

(Paradigm credit: Apple)

The iPad Pro 2021 is coming and an Apple tree Pencil 3rd generation model may be joining it. That's the latest buzz spilling out of a new leak that points to the Bound Loaded Apple event on Apr 20 as a likely identify for both to debut. And nosotros just got footage of the Apple Pencil 3 that helps u.s. know which iPad it's for.

The leak comes courtesy of Weibo user UnclePan, which posted a photo of a leaked AirPods 3 design (which looks a lot like the AirPods Pro) — and in that caption referred to an Apple Pencil three coming soon. Not only does this user reportedly have a good tape of leaks, but this does dorsum up recent reports.

• These are the best tablets right now
• The best Apple Pencil alternatives for those on a unlike upkeep
• Plus: Apple Fitness Plus merely got three big upgrades to take on Peloton

Twitter account @ileakeer merely shared video of the Apple Pencil iii, which shows the glossy body and flat side. As we explain below, this kinda proves that the Apple Pencil 3 is coming for the iPad Pro, as that's the only iPad with a flat charging surface for it.

We wish all the other iPads had that magnetic charging edge, but a whole-line redesign doesn't seem to be in the cards.

Concluding calendar month, a new-wait Apple Pencil, with a glossy (not matte) barrel leaked, and it had a detachable tip, that looked much larger than the tips of the electric current Apple tree Pencils.

Equally for what new features an Apple Pencil 3 would offer, rumors date dorsum to 2020, when haptic feedback and a Bear upon Bar-like brandish were revealed in patents. Other patents suggested Apple tree was investigating functional tip modules,  for new sensors.

Examples could include a light sensor system congenital into the tip of the Apple Pencil, that could recognize the color of an object, and then you lot could use that color in an app. Which sounds like the hereafter to us.

Every bit it stands right at present, Apple still sells the original Apple Pencil, which is supported by the iPad, iPad Air and iPad mini, also every bit the Apple Pencil (2d Generation), which is for the iPad Pro. Apple needs both because the 2nd Gen charges via magnetically attaching itself to the iPad Pro'due south side, and the other iPads don't take such a surface for charging the Apple Pencils.

While a new Apple tree Pencil 3 fabricated for the iPad Pro makes a lot of sense, the original leaked photograph made u.s.a. wonder what iPad it was for — as it hid the flat side. At present that we know amend, information technology's fairly like shooting fish in a barrel to effigy out this volition replace the Apple tree Pencil 2nd Gen.
