I think this is one of the first times I don't fully agree with Adam. I do think having the different "tiers" of hardware, for lack of a better word, is a good idea. Most apple products are pretty crazy expensive in general so having less expensive versions for people who don't need the fanciness is nice. However, the magnetic charging I cannot lose. Having to plug the pencil into the ipad was such a stupid thing I feel and it always made it feel like I was going to break it. It's not charging while in storage case. Having the keyboard that also charges it all makes it so much easier because I can plug in the keyboard and use that with the iPad and it will still charge the pencil without it having to stick out the side of the ipad. I also can't really justify the cost of a mac computer compared to windows computers. Maybe it's just me, but I don't see much, if any difference between a high end scepter monitor and an apple monitor. What ever difference there is, to me, is not worth the double price tag. same with mac computers in general. They are not worth the price over a pc. I get just as good if not better performace from my 1200 HP than i do from my mac I use for work which is a 2400 laptop.

If it was chargeable like the 2nd gen pen this would make more sense. That's not a pro vs. casual use difference, it's just a great quality of life upgrade many people don't want to miss. I know people who get Air or Pro just because of the magnetic wireless charging of the pen, who are not artists and just need it for notetaking.

Fair enough. I still feel like this doesnāt negate the apple pencil usb-c is a confusing product in the lineup that people need to understand isnāt intended for artists. I was hoping theyād release the Apple Pencil 3 before this stripped version. But Iām definitely excited about whatās coming!

As someone who's getting my own iPad soon, this move by Apple just frustrates me.
Everything you say MAY be true to some degree but there is something that not even Apple is "PRO" at in all of this. Communication.
Their communication as to their products have always been awful except when Jobs was there. Jobs knew how to talk to people. Now it feels like they are bringing out a bunch of stuff, throwing it to the public and seeing what sticks. Would've also helped if they made it more distinguishable from Apple pencil 2. I just see a lot of people getting confused in the future. I'm in the same boat as Brad Colbow on this.
I would love to be as optimistic as you about the future of Apple products, but I just don't agree that the evidence is as clear as you say.
Thanks Adam for always bringing a different perspective. It's always needed.

I get what youāre saying. But I will say this..I lost my Apple Pencil and I bought a knock off from Amazon. ($30) It doesnāt have pressure sensitivity but I was honestly able to use it to draw/paint. I happened to find my Apple Pencil (thank god) but I kept the knock off just in caseā¦BUT! there is really no difference between the knock off and the new Apple Pencil. The knock off actually uses usb-c and I actually just tried to use the hover feature with my M2 pro and the knock off and it works lol.

I've been following your channel and learning a lot from your experiences and perspectives that you bring, thank you!
It would be amazing if you could do reviews of other products to help artists at the beginning of their careers make good product decisions too, as you have a lot of experience you will definitely see things that even artists can't see yet.

Thank you for talking about this product. You made some really great points that were things I have also been pondering on when it comes to digital art tools. I spent too much time in the past listening to people that said tools didn't matter (for digital painting, for ergonomics, for the ease and comfort when drawing and so forth). I experiment on my own now with different set ups and buy things that make it easier on me physically to make digital art because I have intense back pain from working in the medical field. I use to draw on a Cintiq before I injured my back and realized that if I wanted to continue making art, I had to physically understand my limits. I rely on small screen tablets now and can draw without pain by laying down with supportive foam pillows. I appreciate you being here to share your thoughts, advice, and experiences. :virtualhug:
