what is the difference between apple pencil model MK0C2AM/A and MK0C2ZM/A and do both work on iPadPro 9.7
I am try to find out the difference, if any, of these two models of the pencils sold on various websites. Amazon sells one model, Best Buy sells another, and Apple Store does not even state what model they sell.

Doesn't it scratch Ipad display?
Hey guys! I had windows tablet with wacom pencil that scratched my gorilla glass :(, also i know some guys who had same problems with ipad and some different (not apple's) pencils. These pencils have hard scratchy "stick" inside the rubber tip, so when this rubber is worn out (in very inpredictable moment) this hard stick scratch the display. Doesn't your apple pencil has such hard part inside the tio? Does it scratch your ipad? I really care about my ipad diplay and don't want to ruin it... Will be appreciate for any feedback.

AnswerI have not had any visible scratches on my iPad. I use the pencil everyday for writing notes in my college classes and I have not had any scratches. So no it does not leave scratches. There is a hard sensor under the tip but the tips that cover it do not wear down that much and you can replace the tips when you feel that it is needed. When I bought my iPad the guy helping me said that getting scratches on the display is hard because of the strength of the glass. Knock on wood I haven't had any scratches on my iPad Pro 9.7".

How can I used the pen with iPad pro
- Asked by Gerges G from Staten Island

- Flag as inappropriate (How can I used the pen with iPad pro)
Best Answer:Pull the back of the pencil off to find the connector. Plug the connector into the bottom of the iPad Pro (lightening connector). The iPad screen will ask if you want to match the pencil (Bluetooth) with the iPad Pro. Agree to that. According to the instructions from Apple instructions online, it takes only 15 seconds in that connection to charge up the pencil for 30 minutes of use. Apple says you can also charge the USB with a standard USB - lightening connection cable. What I don't know is how long it is safe to charge the pencil using this second system, but I do know that it works beautifully with the first system, too.

Best Answer:I have two gen 3 iPads and neither respond to the Apple Pencil. I didn't expect any kind of inking to work, but I thought it would work as a basic stylus at least. It does not.
