Apple is also introducing a refresh for its professional line of tablets. The iPad Pro gets the M2 processor the company introduced earlier this year in the MacBook Air. It's expected to be 15% faster than the M1 processor used in last year's iPad Pro. Apple's also bringing a new "hover" feature that detects when the Apple Pencil is slightly above the screen. If you've used a stylus-compatible Samsung, you'll be familiar with this feature. When you hover over an item, you can "see a preview of their mark before they make it."
According to the company, this should also make it easier to sketch and illustrate with improved precision. Like with Scribble, the text fields will automatically expand when your Apple Pencil is near. It should convert handwriting to text faster, too. Apple says third-party apps could take advantage of the feature.
