Precision and Latency: It offers industry-leading low latency and pixel-perfect precision, making it feel as natural as using a traditional writing instrument for tasks like drawing, sketching, coloring, and note-taking.
Magnetic Attachment and Charging: The flat edge of the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) allows it to magnetically attach to the side of a compatible iPad for wireless charging and storage, a significant improvement over the first-generation's charging method.
Intuitive Controls: The touch-sensitive surface supports a double-tap gesture, allowing users to quickly switch between tools (e.g., pen and eraser) within supported apps without setting the pencil down.
Hover Functionality: When used with certain iPad Pro and iPad Air models, the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) supports Apple Pencil Hover, which detects the pencil's position and angle up to 12mm above the screen.
Design: The seamless, matte design makes it comfortable to hold and use for extended periods, and it is less prone to fingerprints than its glossy predecessor.
