    I bought it and used it for 1-2 years, still using as of typing this.
    It works great as a drawing tablet, and i have used it rather roughly at times for the past 2 years, such as using full pressure to colour a character because i am too lazy to press 1 button to change the brush to the opaque type. I also threw the laptop bag which the tablet is in around for over a year now. Still working perfectly as of now with no visible scratches.
    Fun fact: it works amazing as a cheap second monitor that u can bring around anywhere too as an added bonus, so for eg: in classes where u want a second screen, u can use this as well, not the main purpose, but it works! XD

      But I used it for the following before and it works:
      1. Clip Studio Paint (even the 2.0 update as of typing this)
      2. Photoshop (and pretty much every adobe cloud's software)
      3. Maya (if anyone is considering doing 3D)
      4. Unity (if anyone is considering game making)
      5. Pixel art sites (I did some on chrome specifically when bored)
      6. If you play on websites like GarticPhone, it also works
      I don't know if Ibis is on PC, but if it's on PC, it most likely works, because it worked for every program so far!

    I bought it some time ago and I prefer the feel of this tablet over my Wacom Intuos Pro L (regular tablet without a screen). I do agree it's a bit small but going bigger won't give you more resolution on the screen, so the screen clutter would be the same (albeit a tad more readable).

    really cool video, the only point i would disagree with you is about the stand, not that you should not get one but that you should not get the one from huion, the main "issue" with the huion stands is that what support the bottom of the tablet is no wide enough and the tablet can slip out of it pretty easily, + you can get some 10€ laptop stands if it can hold a laptop in a secure way it can easily be used for a tablet that thin :D

    • @asimian8500
      @asimian8500 3 роки тому +4

      I use both. Why? Photoshop for its incredible filters, face-aware liquify, and a host of other features. Also, I actually prefer digital painting on Photoshop. For line work: sketching and digital inking (vector layers!), I will only use Clip Studio. It's also great for comic style coloring like cut and grad. I'll export the CSP file as a Photoshop file and paint from there. Last thing, Clip Studio just added liquify which is fine for correcting sketches, but it's not sophisticated like Photoshop. I'm glad they added it.

      @@woodhidh CSP is very reasonably priced on desktop ($50 one time purchase I believe) and Photoshop through the photography plan is $10 a month. But that also allows you to use Adobe Portfolio for your Portfolio site. If you do that it's a good deal. It really all depends on if you'd use those advanced features and if you need a portfolio site. But for most artists CSP would have everything they would need (and in some ways more than Photoshop would give you).

    the main problem of this tablet is the color difference between it and your main screen, even changing the parameters. You end up having a great drawing on the tablet, and a awful one on your main screen. I end up using it as a normal tablet. I would suggest you to maybe try the 4k huion ones but im not even sure the colors will be better. Maybe just buy a normal tablet or an ipad pro directly . Especially when the constrat and colors of the tablet doesnt show all the details of the main screen.

    Its the worst tablet Ive ever gotten, it doesn't even connect to my display screen and I have gone through all of their tutorials. Considering there is so many videos trying to help people fix it - they should talk about this problem in their tutorial.
