This morning I have told you why I decided not to buy the new iPhone 7, and now I'm going to tell you something totally different: why did I decide to buy the Apple Pencil, well, and what the company has to do with it has taken out a pasture for me 😂.
A little over a week ago, coinciding with the launch of the iPhone 7, I stopped by an Apple Premium Reseller in Seville, and there I was able to test the Apple Pencil thinking about its usefulness for writing (no matter how good it is, a server does not have talent for drawing). I tried it for just a couple of minutes and using the Notes app, I wrote a few lines, and I didn't need anything else to know that the Apple Pencil is what I had been waiting for for years.
Apple Pencil represents the degree of proximity to perfection that Apple should never deviate from.
The iPhone is a great device; We could say that it is the necessary device inasmuch as being a telephone and basically serving for communication in its different forms, it always goes with us. It is the device of the day to day and without a doubt, despite the iPhone 7, it is one of Apple's greatest achievements that then all, absolutely all companies, have copied in one way or another. But the iPad is something else. From my point of view, the iPad is the device that can offer the greatest possibilities in education or work. Beyond being able to watch movies and series, the iPad can be a work device, although I will not dare to equate it with a computer. But until the end of last year, the iPad was lame.
When Apple released the 12,9-inch iPad Pro, it made a big decision. But it was still a better decision to launch a 9,7-inch iPad Pro for obvious portability issues. Along with the iPad Pro came the Apple Pencil. Yes, a stylus, something that Jobs always denied because for him it was an obstacle between man and machine. But I firmly believe that Even Jobs would be able to change his mind, and he would if he could see the perfection with which you can write on an iPad thanks to the Apple Pencil.
Nothing is perfect
Apple products are not perfect. Nothing in life is, and I'm not going to say otherwise just because I'm an Apple fan and blogging about the brand. And in Apple Pencil it is not either however, is the stylus that is closest to perfection.
Its design is incredibly beautiful, but also risky. The sensation of its surface, totally smooth, is a gift to the sense of touch, but it also allows it to roll more than desired and end up lying on the ground. You will also have to be careful with your upper magnetic cap, but while you are charging it it is also susceptible to being lost. But apart from these two aspects, I insist, the Apple Pencil is the accessory that I had been waiting for years as a complement to the iPad.
Su autonomy It is enough although to ask, because I hope it lasts even longer. And if you run out of battery, you plug it into the iPad for 15 seconds and you have another half hour to finish what you were doing.
Its incredible precision is the best of all. I will not talk about how it works in the drawing facet, because I do not draw and I will not talk about what I do not know, although the opinions of experts place it at the pinnacle of precision.
From the point of view of handwriting, Apple Pencil is the closest I've ever been to handwriting on paper. Nothing interferes when you are writing and, saving the obvious distances, it is almost the same as picking up a pen and a piece of paper, with the advantage that you will do less pressure, you will tire less, and you will not waste paper, something the planet will thank you for.
I've tried other styluses all the way to the Apple Pencil, and I can safely say that all I have done is waste money. It is true that Apple's bet costs € 109, but I assure you that you will not regret it. The only downside is that to enjoy the Apple Pencil I had to replace my brand new iPad Air 2 with the iPad Pro, another waste of money. But I don't regret it at all.
