Let\u2019s dive in.<\/p>\n<p>The Apple Pencil comes in four distinct models: 1st generation, 2nd generation, USB-C version, and the newly released Apple Pencil Pro.

This model is compatible with older iPads and offers reliable performance for everyday tasks.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you&#8217;re using newer devices like recent iPad Pros or Airs (2020 onwards), consider investing in either the second-gen or even better\u2014the brand-new Apple Pencil Pro.
