One of the biggest questions for potential users of the iPad Pro and Apple Pencil concerns palm rejection, the ability of the iPad Pro to distinguish between unwanted touches from your wrist and intended input from the Apple Pencil itself.
Pixar’s Dr. Wave (AKA, Michael B. Johnson) tweeted this, along with a picture of the team:
Lovely of our friends from Apple to stop by to let us take iPad Pro & Pencil for a test drive
In the follow-up comments, he said:
It has perfect palm rejection as far as we were able to see.
High praise. Good to know.

I noticed in the promo videos that they don’t really show anyone’s wrists resting on the screen, so it was kind of up in the air — so to speak. Yup, good to know they’ve worked that out.
Enough with the torture! Apple, please ship this thing already 🙂
(I hope they will add a 256 GB option though, my 128 GB Air is full.)
I expected no less. I wonder how long it’ll take angry Wacom fans to trash-talk this.
