( vox populi ) Apple ’s latest event brought a ton of Modern products including multiple sized iPad Airs , M4 toting iPad Pros and even a pro - level climb for the iPad ’s trustworthy stylus , the Apple Pencil . Known as the Apple Pencil Pro , this new machine is already breaking my brain .
From first opinion , the Apple Pencil Pro definitely seems like quite an impressive machine . On top of familiar features that we ’ve come to appreciate from Apple ’s iPad accessory , the Apple Pencil Pro now features an all - newfangled squeeze release , a gyroscope for recognising rotary motion , tactile feedback and even Find My support ( great news for anyone who ’s lose of one of these things in the past ) .
As far as accoutrement go , that ’s quite a upstanding amount of upgrades and I have no dubiousness that digital creative person are already lining up to put down a pre - social club for the Apple Pencil Pro , and you might be enquire exactly how much more these features will set you back .
Here ’s the thing , the Apple Pencil Pro and the Apple Pencil 2are the same price .
I ’ve now rewatched the pricing portion of Apple ’s result multiple time and brush up the Apple Store plenty just to double hindrance that I ’m not missing something but so far as I can tell , Apple has decide to lump the Apple Pencil Pro with the same £ 129/$129 price tag end as the lesser powered Apple Pencil 2 .
On the one bridge player , this is definitely a rare win where consumers are touch on , and it does offer up something of an obvious winner whenpitching the two devices against one another , but it does beg the question : what is Apple ’s scheme here ?
After all , Apple is known for being a lavishness brand and if you want to opt for more storage or even a different style of physique , the company has been more than ready to charge you quite a bit excess for the pleasure .
There was no mention during the introduction about sunsetting the Apple Pencil 2 or even bringing the Mary Leontyne Price down to meditate the toll of the Apple Pencil Pro , so again I have to ask , what is Apple trying to do here ?
It ’s not the type of company to overlook such an obvious queerness , so if there is some variety of plan behind it all then I ’d love to know , otherwise I ’ll be stick by here refreshing my web internet browser until Tim Cook himself tell me that it ’s not a mistake .
