Updated 08/21/19: Case maker Olixar is selling an iPhone 11 Pro case with a slot for a smaller Apple Pencil.
A smaller Apple Pencil incoming?
File this one under Weird Last-Minute iPhone Rumors. Online retailer Mobile Fun is selling an iPhone 11 Pro case by Olixar with an interesting feature: a slot on the rear of the case for a smaller Apple Pencil. Normally we'd completely dismiss such a odd rumor as ridiculous, but there are a few reasons why we're lending some credence to this one. For one, it's already being sold, but more importantly, Mobile Fun has a decent track record of predicting phone designs before launch. Earlier this year, it nailed the Galaxy S10's hole-punch design, and it was one of first to accurately predict that the Note 10 would be dumping the headphone jack. But this one is certainly going out on a limb. Not only does Olixar think the iPhone 11 Pro will have Apple Pencil support, it also think Apple will be making a shorter Apple Pencil for it.
