If you've recently bought a new iPad (or plan to as part of the Black Friday sales), you might want to consider adding an Apple Pencil to your setup.
Not only is it great for sketching and being more precise with image editing, the stylus can help you add notes to documents and so much more.
Even better still is that the flagship Apple Pencil Pro, which includes additional features, haptics and gestures, is now available in an amazing Black Friday deal itself. You can get 16% off from a number of retailers, including John Lewis.
Why consider the Apple Pencil Pro?
The Apple Pencil Pro arrived earlier this year – at the start of summer – and has a number of key new features that make it the best iPad stylus.
It includes Barrel Roll, which uses a sensor inside the barrel to track how you hold the Pencil, and when you rotate it you can change on-screen capabilities. There are new squeeze haptics too, which can bring up a menu with the lightest presses.
It was also the first Apple Pencil to include FindMy technology, helping you find where you placed it last if you happen to lose it.
The Pencil Pro is compatible with the all-new iPad mini 7, the latest 13- and 11-inch iPad Pro devices with M4 chips, plus the M2 iPad Airs – both 13- and 11-inch models.
If you have an older iPad, you should look out for deals on the Apple Pencil USB-C variant or older versions.
