One good thing about the new charging system is that the Apple Pencil USB-C automatically goes into low battery mode when connected to the iPad. And if, like me, you want to switch between Pencils to compare them, then this pairing method does slow things down. It's not exactly difficult, but then again it's not as smooth as with the Apple Pencil 2, which pairs automatically once it sits on the top of the device. It will then come up with a prompt asking you to pair, which you can accept. To pair your new Apple Pencil, you need to connect your Pencil to your iPad via the (not included) cable. It did seem to hold its charge, too, so you shouldn't need to charge it often. And Apple being Apple, there's no charging cable included in the box, which is quite irritating if you don't already have one to hand.Ĭharging is pretty fast, I found it went from 25 per cent to 100 per cent charged in around half an hour in my tests.
