I predict that a new generation of the Apple Pencil will come this year (2022) probably at the same time Apple will announce new iPad Pro models. Probably with the same design but with FindMy compatibly and 1h more battery. I think this new pencil with substitute the 2th generation which won't be anymore available to be purchased and price will be the same as the 2th generation or perhaps $20 more.

Yeah, I’d say a 3rd generation Apple Pencil is going to come this year too, but maybe with even more improvements.

I wouldn’t mind seeing two different opposing tap zones.

Lower two set to what you want: selection & something else bear tip. And undo & something else near the base.

What's the longest Apple has taken between gen 2 and gen 3 of a successful product? We must be approaching a record....

Could be, though I was encouraged to see Hover support with the existing pencil in the new iPads so maybe just further iPad improvements.

Maybe the 3rd gen will come with a rubber on the other end.
