A subtle shadow appears in the UI when the Apple Pencil Pro is hovered over an iPad Pro. He discovered it duringTWIT’s MacBreak Weekly. Snazzy Labs noticed the same Easter egg and called it “INSANE.”

The Apple Pencil Pro is the best Apple Pencil to date. It features three new writing tools that were missing from previous models. These include the ability to rotate its barrel to change the orientation of the shaped pen and brush tools. A new feature also allows you to squeeze the Pencil to bring up a palette and switch tools, line weights, and colors. The Apple Pencil Pro is also the first to include haptic feedback.
