Apple Pencil 2nd generation

The Apple Pencil 2nd generation, alternatively titled as Apple Pencil 2, is the second Apple Pencil model announced by Apple CEO Tim Cook at an Apple Special Event on October 30, 2018. It was released on November 7, 2018 alongside the iPad Pro 3rd generation.

The Apple Pencil 2 is similar in design and specifications to the first model, but without the detachable connector, and part of the stylus is flattened to inhibit rolling. It contains tap-sensitive zones on its sides that can be mapped to functions within apps. Custom laser engraving is available when purchased via the Apple Store online.
Rather than a physical Lightning connector, the second-generation Pencil is paired and charged using a proprietary magnetic wireless charging connector on the tablet instead. As such, it is only supported by the third and fourth generation iPad Pro and the fourth generation iPad Air. These iPads also have USB-C ports instead of Lightning, making them incompatible with the first-generation Pencil. iPads released in 2018 or later with a Lightning port, including the third-generation iPad Air, fifth-generation iPad mini, and the seventh and eighth generation iPads, only support the first-generation Pencil.
