The crayon is similar to Adonit styluses I have used in past (button to turn it on, charge up) except it does not work with anything but the latest generation iPads (does not function as capacitative stylus as the Adonit does). For the advanced features (pressure sensitivity, programmable buttons) apps had to integrate with Adonit SDK (many drawing apps do). The Crayon charges with Lightning cable which is convenient.
It seems other 3rd party styli might copy some of these features (instant pairing, charge with Lightning), capacitative tip, and add custom buttons and pressure-sensitivity via SDK as before.
I should see if my Adonit works with this, seems it should.

Cool. I bought my iPad Mini 5 a month or so ago and really have loved using it. It's so much faster than the iPad Mini 4.
I have an Apple pencil version 1. I liked it well enough when I got it, but between forgetting to charge it and forgetting to carry it with me, I got out of the habit of using it. Of course, I'm not an artists so I mostly just used it instead of my finger rather than to sketch with.
