Kuo: No Apple Pencil Support for 2018 iPhones, Upcoming 6.1-Inch Model to Be Slightly Delayed

Just an FYI to any other App Dev who may be looking into this.

From a Points perspective, the 6.5" OLED & 6.1" LCD iPhones are identical, 896 x 414 in Landscape, OR 414 x 896 in Portrait.

Only the Points-to-Rendered Resolution "factors" are different, 3x for the OLED model, vs 2x for the LCD model.

That was a GOOD R&D decision on AAPL's part !

I'm sure but why would you want Apple Pencil support on an iPhone? Very few people would be using the Apple Pencil with their iPhone. It makes sense on an iPad, not iPhone.

I have to disagree. I would use it like a note pad, I have notepads that are smaller than my phone and its much easier to jot things down or sketch things out quickly in a meeting rather than using my fingers to key in text or swiping things around. I would love the accuracy of a true pencil point.

So Kuo is now passing of his opinions as rumors? Why does this guy get so much ink?

Because what he says is true. Look now.
