Apple Pencil Pro vs. USB-C: New stylus features and price differences

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Apple has released two new stylus options for its iPads: the Apple Pencil Pro and the Apple Pencil (USB-C). While both offer precise input and low latency, the Pro model includes advanced features like heightened pressure sensitivity, a "Barrel Roll" function for brush orientation control, and squeeze gestures for tool switching, all enhanced by haptic feedback. The Apple Pencil Pro is priced at $129, while the USB-C version is $79, making the Pro a more expensive option for artists and creatives seeking greater control, whereas the standard version may suffice for note-taking students.
