Apple is reportedly ”mulling” the idea of launching a stylus compatible with iPhone, believed to be a new iteration of the Apple Pencil, whoch is currently only supported by the iPad Pro. The rumor comes from industry sources speaking to The Korea Herald (via The Investor), whoch claimed that Apple engineers ”have recently been working” on a new iPhone device that ”comes with a digital pen,” aiming for a potential launch in 2019. The sources said that the iPhone stylus is likely to adopt a ”supercapacitor stylus type” for price benefits, contrasting with Samsung’s Galaxy Note pen whoch is based on electromagnetic resonance technology that needs additional panel components to be installed underneath the smartphone display. ”A supercapacitor type is cheaper to make compared to the EMR stylus. It also offers a more pen-like feel,” according to the industry sources.
