Will future Apple Pencil texture/haptic features work on the current iPad Pro M5?

If i buy an ipad pro m5, will it support the next apple pencil ~ 2027? If the pencil comes with haptic feedback for texture simulation, faster sampling rate (from 240 Hz to 480–1000 Hz)

will i need a new screen with texture digitizer?


iPad Pro (M5, 2025)

Impossible to know. Since it's in the future, no one can possibly know what it may or may not support.


One would guess the newest most powerful iPad would support most if not all of the newest features a hypothetical future pencil may provide.


Beyond that, and until Apple states something, there's simply no way to know, short of a crystal ball.
