Riding on the wave of its recent Let Loose event, where it unleashed numerous variations of its logo, Apple treated fans to more aesthetic goodness across the packaging of its new Apple Pencil Pro.
Ditching the standard product image, each box features the word “Pro” surrounded by a unique brushstroke style. The boxes are shipped randomly, so customers won’t know which design they’ll get.
The Apple Pencil Pro itself boasts a range of advanced features designed to enhance user experience. A pressure-sensitive squeeze function summons a new palette for effortless tool, weight, and color adjustments. Precision control of shaped pen and brush tools is achieved through a built-in gyroscope, which responds to rotations of the Pencil Pro. Haptic feedback provides a satisfying confirmation for specific actions, and the Find My app integration ensures misplaced Pencils are a thing of the past.
Priced at US$129, the Apple Pencil Pro complements the new iPad Pro and iPad Air models.
While Apple has enjoyed a recent run celebrating creativity, it hasn’t been all smooth-sailing. Its new Crush commercial has sparked controversy, criticized for portraying technology as a destructive force that stifles artistic expression.
