The Apple Pencil It has become a product that is highly demanded by users, as it has quickly positioned itself as one of the best alternatives when drawing digitally. However, this same product so promoted by Apple is so far compatible with very few versions of the iPad, another leader in its sector.
Everything is close to changing in Apple's policy with the Apple Pencil. According to the latest leaks, the new iPad Mini 5 will be compatible with the Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard, which would make it almost an iPad Pro. We will have to see, yes, the price that Apple decides to put on a product of these characteristics.
It's hard to glean much information about J210 / J211, and J217 / J218, the upcoming iPad models. It seems like both iPad sizes support a Smart Keyboard and Pencil, but it's possible that neither include Touch ID (nor Face ID). Hard to imagine Apple shipping sans TouchID unless for $

Developer Steve Troughton-Smith have delved deeper into the iOS 12.2 beta, which is leaving many news, especially considering that it will be officially launched shortly after the Keynote that Apple usually does during the months of March, coincidentally the right time to unleash the ideas that the Cupertino firm has designed for the iPad, and of course, announce new models such as previous versions of the iPad that have been announced in this range of dates.
According to the developer the information It is not too detailed or precise, but these iPad Mini 5 that have been called J210, J211, J217 and J218 will come in two sizes, so everything makes us imagine that we will have both two classic versions of the iPad (WiFi and Cellular) and two other versions of the new iPad Mini (also WiFi and Cellular). But not only the Apple Pencil will be the beneficiary, but in theory there are also vestiges that a Smart Keyboard will be fully compatible with both models. Be that as it may, we have more to wait and dream that Apple than it deserves a very powerful product like the iPad.
