As Apple’s WWDC event, which will be held between June 6-10, approaches, new leaks began to emerge. First, we saw the MacBook Air model that will come with the M2 processor, and then the advanced multitasking feature that will come with iPadOS 16. But this time, the leak we come across is above all. So much so that there is a possible Apple Pencil support for MacBook models. Here are the details…
New MacBook models may have Apple Pencil support!
According to the leak news that emerged today, Apple has patented a feature that it has been working on in the past years. Thanks to this innovation, which continues to work on, MacBook models will receive Apple Pencil support.
Moreover, according to the image in the patent application, there will be an Apple Pencil slot above the keyboard of the laptop. Of course, some experts examining these patent drawings say that the keys between F1 and F12 on the keyboard can be replaced.
If we interpret the images roughly, we can say that this pen slot will come instead of the touchscreen TouchBar area in the previous models of the series. Although Apple Pencil 2 seems to be enough for this job, we can see a new pencil model that will support both iPad and MacBook models.
But here we may not see a touchscreen as expected. Because it will be very difficult to do professional work with the pen on this screen after it cannot be folded 360 degrees. However, this support can be provided via the Trackpad (touchpad).
Of course, although Apple produces the models with the largest touch area compared to its competitors, let’s point out that professionals will need more than that. Of course, making both a pen slot and a larger touchpad area can be quite challenging. But when this happens, it can pave the way for developments in this area.
