Apple Pencil Pro Review: Apple’s Most Advanced iPad Stylus Yet
Product Summary
The Apple Pencil Pro is Apple’s latest high‑end stylus, introduced to deliver a more expressive and responsive input experience on compatible iPads. It combines the precision and low latency that Apple Pencils are known for with new hardware sensors and gestures, including:
- Pixel‑perfect precision and low latency for handwriting, sketching, and detailed illustration.
- Tilt and pressure sensitivity so line weight, shading, and stroke depth respond naturally to how you hold and press the pencil.
- A new squeeze gesture that brings up a customizable tool palette.
- Barrel roll, powered by an internal gyroscope, allowing you to rotate the pencil to control the angle of certain pen and brush tools.
- Haptic feedback that provides gentle physical confirmation of actions like squeezing or double‑tapping.
- Apple Pencil hover on supported iPads, previewing where your mark will land.
- Magnetic attachment, pairing, and charging on the side of compatible iPads.
As of 2026, Apple positions the Pencil Pro as its most capable stylus, sitting above both the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) and Apple Pencil (USB‑C) in terms of advanced input features.
