Multiple outlets cite Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in reporting that Apple is developing two new Apple Pencil models expected to launch in spring 2027 alongside next-generation iPad Pro models. The rumored lineup includes an updated lower-end Apple Pencil with a USB-C port and a refreshed higher-end Apple Pencil Pro that supports wireless charging. The updates are tied to forthcoming European Union requirements on consumer electronics battery replacement. Under EU rules passed in 2023, consumer devices must allow for consumer-replaceable batteries by 2027. Apple’s existing Apple Pencil designs are described as difficult to repair, and Apple is reportedly expected to adjust the battery approach to better align with the regulation. Bloomberg’s reporting, as summarized by the outlets, suggests Apple may use “new battery systems” that make battery replacement easier for users. Aside from the battery-related changes and the general release window, the sources do not provide additional confirmed specifications, design details, or feature changes for the new stylus models.
