Every accessory
The input accessories Apple sells alongside its computers and tablets: the
Apple Pencil for iPad, and the Magic Keyboard,
Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad for the Mac.
Each row lists how it connects or charges, a line of headline specs, the
starting US price and the year it shipped.
Prices are the starting US price at launch and exclude tax. These have no
user-facing chip, so the second column lists the connector /
power instead. Compatibility matters: each Apple Pencil only works with
certain iPads.
