The current range of Apple Pencils is only available in one color at the moment, white. However, it looks like Apple may be planning to also launch a black color option soon. This potential new color variant could provide users with more customization options and cater to those who prefer a sleeker, more professional look for their devices.
According to a recent tweet by Mr.white on Twitter, Apple is planning to launch the second color option with the next generation Apple Pencil.

Upcoming iPad Models
We are expecting a number of new iPads from Apple, although some may have been delayed until next year because of COVID-19. Earlier reports have mentioned a new iPad Air, which is anticipated to feature a larger display and possibly a new design that aligns more closely with the iPad Pro models. Additionally, there are new iPad Pro models on the way, although these are expected next year. The iPad Pro lineup is rumored to include advanced features such as mini-LED displays, improved processors, and enhanced camera systems.
The potential delay in the release of these new iPads could be attributed to the global supply chain disruptions caused by the pandemic. However, Apple has been known to adapt quickly to such challenges, and we might still see some of these new devices sooner than expected.
Enhanced Features and Connectivity
The Apple Pencil has become an essential tool for many iPad users, especially for artists, designers, and note-takers. The introduction of a black color option could be more than just an aesthetic update. It might also come with enhanced features and improved performance. For instance, Apple could introduce better pressure sensitivity, reduced latency, and new functionalities that integrate seamlessly with the upcoming iPadOS updates.

The introduction of a black Apple Pencil could provide users with more choices and potentially new features that enhance the overall user experience.
