POCKET NOTES The fifth version of the iPad mini now supports Apple Pencil, making it a highly portable and slick drawing device
After Apple launched two new iPad models in early 2019 – a new 10.5-inch iPad Air model and a fifth-generation iPad mini, both supporting Apple’s Pencil stylus (£79) – there’s now a busy line-up of Apple tablets to choose from, at a range of sizes and price points.
For some illustrators, the iPad mini may be the more interesting new addition to the family. It’s super portable – just 300g and 7.9 inches across. It’s small enough to fit into almost anything and take anywhere with you. Now that you can use Apple’s Pencil with it, this means you can combine a powerful digital tablet with a highly sensitive stylus. Combined with the brilliant range of drawing apps that are available for iOS – Procreate, ArtRage and SketchBook to name but three – and the iPad mini is clearly a unique creative product.
