A new leaker claiming to have information from inside Chinese factories has posted a short video of a glossy “Apple Pencil 3.”
Apple Pencil (2nd generation) delivers pixel-perfect precision and industry-leading low latency, making it great for drawing, sketching, coloring, taking notes, marking up email, and more. And it’s as easy and natural to use as a pencil. Apple Pencil (2nd generation) also allows you to change tools without setting it down, thanks to its intuitive touch surface that supports double-tapping. Designed for iPad Pro and iPad Air, it features a flat edge that attaches magnetically for automatic charging and pairing.
Wesley Hilliard for AppleInsider:
Leaks surrounding a new Apple Pencil have been sparse so far, but a new video shows a glossy design with a flat side for inductive charging. This leaker known as “@ileakeer” on Twitter doesn’t have much of a history or following, so it is difficult to determine if the video is real.

The design of the Apple Pencil shown in the video lines up with a photo shared by a well-known leaker called “Mr. White.” The photo shared on Twitter in early March had an Apple pencil that seemed to have a flat side, thicker casing, and a glossy white finish.

MacDailyNews Take: We’ll know soon enough, as the Apple Pencil 3 just might appear alongside new iPad Pro models at Apple’s “Spring Loaded” event on April 20th.
