This is the best summary I could come up with:
The iPad accessory will cost $79 and comes with a sliding cap that reveals the USB-C port.
It also attaches magnetically to the side edge of an iPad — even the 10th-generation model Apple released last year.
The cheaper price means that the Pencil doesn’t come with some of the more advanced features as the first- and second-generation accessories.
The device doesn’t support pressure sensitivity, wireless pairing and charging, or the double-tap feature that lets you switch between tools.
The first Apple Pencil model used a Lightning connector that jutted out of it to plug into your iPad’s port for charging, while the second-gen model charged wirelessly and isn’t compatible with the 10th-generation iPad Apple released last year, leaving owners of that iPad with not-great options if they wanted to use Apple’s fancy stylus.
It was a huge upgrade over the original model, adding features like wireless charging (meaning you didn’t have to plug it into an iPad to charge it), a way to magnetically attach to the side of supported iPads (meaning it had a flat edge that prevented it from rolling off a table), and support for gesture controls for things like switching tools while using an app.
