Will the apple pencil work on ipad air 2

Why?! I don't want to believe it. How can they dare to make a stylus only for IPad pro? I have an iPad Air 2 and many stylus like Wacom's brand aren't compatible because apple change the screen. I was waiting for the new that they will go to release a stylus for IPad Air 2 and now I don't have any hope. :/ Please Apple make compatible the apple pencil or make a new one for the iPad Air 2.

I had the Pencil by 53 for a couple weeks and loved it and the Paper app, but it had 2 shortcomings for me:

1. It was a big fat tip, making it difficult to be precise.
2. The surface pressure is not real pressure sensitivity, because it seems to be based on the angle of the pencil and how much surface coverage the squishy tip was spread out and touching on the screen, not how hard you press on the iPad with the tip of the Pencil.

I'm using an Adonit Jot Touch 4 now with my Air 2, and it ticks all the boxes. I wish it was as precise as the Apple Pencil is claiming to be. I'm hoping they're the same screen technology so I can just buy an Apple Pencil and use it with my Air 2.

Any info on when we can see the Pro in stores for a demo, or do we have to wait until it's available in stores for sale?

Well said, my friend. Adonit's range of styluses are undoubtedly the most precise writing implements on the market. Also, the pencil by 53 has a tip that requires replacement often, and the replacement tips also cost money. What you really need is spmething that lasts indefinitely so you dont have to worry about wearing out. The Jot Script is a solid choise.

I haven't seen any mention of a pre-sale store display for the iPad Pro. It seemed to work well for the  Watch so we'll have to wait for an official Apple announcement.

The Apple iPad pro is officially coming out on November.

Correct. I'm curious, the iPad Pro has gotten much more favorable comments from other iPad users then I thought it would get. Are you interested in getting one ?

Totally. 4 speakers, A9 chip, 12.9" display, who wouldn't?

Thank you. Before it was introduced many people were cold to the idea of a larger iPad. Once they saw it they wanted one. It sounds like Apple hit a home run on this one.

Apple's iPad pro was designed to be the future of portable computers with its 13" display. And now, with iOS 9, they've done just that.

I read somewhere about an iPad Air 3 towards the end of the year. Maybe that's the answer to Pencil compatibility on a classically size iPad.

I have an iPad Air 2 and a Pencil by 53. I'd really like another stylus with the finest tip and least latency. I see the Jot Script has been recommend, does anyone else have a recommendation?

Thanks!

Now, that takes the cake. Apple (Jobs) waits years to finally get us a stylus/pencil/drawing device ... balking and balking (#badthing) ... and then introduces it as something that is only for a premium device. (#musthavething)

Mr. Jobs is no longer with us in case you hadn't heard. He had nothing to do with this decision. The new stylus was designed with the new screen technology of the iPad Pro. This is not unusual for any electronics company and especially for Apple.

I'd be curious to see how many current iPad users adopt the stylus. I bought my iPad because it didn't need add ons and can't see the use for them now.

Current users can't adopt the Apple Pencil at all. If I was going to pay the big bucks for the iPad Pro I would get the Pencil. I do have styli I use with my iPad 3.
