    just a piece of advice for everyone, I bought my first Drawing Tablet, XP-PEN Artist Pro 15.6 from one of XP-Pen's online stores, the warranty is 1 year, it was my first year of drawing (it's been a year) I haven't used this tablet much, if I were to say maybe half a year or less of full use, I did had to replace my screen protector once, twice now(if it didn't break) due to it easily being scratched by the pen, I replaced my nimbus only 3 times I had like 3-4-5 more pen nimbus left and guess what my tablet is broken, XP-Pen don't have a brand in my country so there's no place for me to go to get it fixed... my warranty has also expired so I contacted the store I bought it from, also emailed them in their official website I explained the problem in detail with pictures and videos, they assumed it was a hardware problem which I believe so, they straight up told me to buy a new one, it took us more than 5 exchange emails to say why they're making me buy a new one, they said that the shipping of this from my country to them would cost so much that it'd be better to just buy a new one, they didn't even explain why they thought it was a hardware problem and what had possibly caused it, i explained to them in detail so they could tell me what's up but no they only kept telling me to buy a new one. very terrible service and it felt like this was made to break after one year of use after your warranty has expired they did gave me a voucher so if I wanted to buy another of their Artist Pro 15.6 but nah I'm so done. I don't want terrible service and I believe this type of devices need 2 years of warranty.. just a reminder, no I take care of my tablet well, it still looks brand new, I haven't used it much but it broke if I actually did used this a lot i believe this would have broken sooner than later...
    so if you want a graphic tablet like this, take into consideration their customer service, warranty, etc, make sure if something goes wrong you can get it fixed

    @chrisblight6069 5 років тому +4

    Love your art man, really awesome stuff. Very interesting video on tablets, and I totally get the cost versus return thing. I have had tablets for decades, for one reason or another. Then one day a second hand Wacom 270HD Cintiq popped up very locally online. These things don't appear second hand at all, in my experience, certainly not where I live; so, since I had extra funds back then I bought it. Since I am an engineer and artist, and use all kinds of 3d and 2d software, I use it quite a bit; it also works as an extra monitor. I bought it with the extra stand and an extra pen as well, and it was in A1 condition. It will last me for the rest of my life probably, so worth it over the long term. That was back a few years now but I do absolutely love using it. Only down side, really friggin heavy! Anyway, keep up the great work.

    Great review. Pro tip: Map zoom in/out to the buttons on your pen! I know the urge is to have right click on your pen but your going to use your zoom far more than your right click in most drawing apps and having it right at your finger tips on your drawing hand is super convenient. The only other settings I would recommend mapping to the pen is adjusting the brush size but for the most part you're going to control this with pen pressure so zoom is still my top pick for my workflow.

    What many people don't consider is the quality of customer service. I rang both Wacom, Australia, and Huion today. Firstly, on my call to Huion, just to ask questions about the Kamvas Pro 20, a lady answered and said, in answer to my question she'd transfer my call to the right person. A gentleman comes on the line with an accent so thick I couldn't quite understand him--and judging by his requests to repeat what I'd just said, he couldn't understand me. I asked for someone who could speak English. Back on the phone comes the original lady who must have been standing/sitting somewhere close by. She then repeated my questions to the gentleman with the accent and then gave me back unhelpful replies. Even their website is a bit hopeless. They offer a few older model drawing tablets for sale, but most of them were listed as being out of stock. I think the cost of customer service isn't factored into their price because they virtually have none.
    Wacom, on the other hand, were phenomenal. They almost did too much. The phone was answered by this razor sharp guy who knew everything about the products and had answers even before I asked questions. And talk about polite and gracious. At the end of the call, there was an over-the-telephone survey to ensure that I was completely satisfied.
    Given the difference in prices, I was leaning towards the Huion Kamvas 20 Pro. But after my experience today, I'm not so sure. I was hoping for a big screen, but perhaps I should stick to the Wacom Cintiq16. Can't make up my mind.

    Hi, I'm a junior designer and have been drawing with Intuos for over a decade. Graphic tablet doesn't satisfy my needs since I've noticed that I still do the sketching with pencil on paper and scan it for digital artwork. The focus is on concept sketching, textbook illustration and hobby art.
    My question is: would you recommend buying a intermediate pen display or continuing with graphic tablet.
    After surfing on the internet for a while - Wacom Cintiq 16 DTK-1660 and Huion GT-156HD V2 have been the most intriguing options if I were to choose a tablet. Wacom would cost 600€ and Huion 530€ in my country. What should I do?

    Hey Mikey! Thanks for sharing your tablet experience. After getting a Huion Q11K at the beginning of the year I was really impressed that it turned out to be just as good if not better than a Wacom Intous tablet I had previously. So impressed I decided to move up to purchasing one of Huion's drawing monitors and unfortunately, it's just been one train wreck after the next. Starting with Huion GT-220 V2 then XP-Pen Artist 16 Pro, recently Huion Pro 13, Pro 12 and lastly a Huion Q11K V2. All had such debilitating issues that for the time, energy and money spent on these tablets it has changed my mindset that even though Wacom or Apple might be overpriced options, they might end up being a better purchase than their alternatives. Which is a crazy thing based on Amazon reviews which tell you to buy anything but Wacom and Apple. It seems like the only way to see if something is worth it these days is to try it out for yourself and hope that if things don't work out, the supplier at least has a forgiving return policy.

    One really important thing to remember when you are choosing a drawing tablet brand is that
    Check out your closest retailers etc where you can get nibs ?... Pens, and other stuff for your tablet.
    One of the many yet main reasons i personaly chose Wacom over Huion was that its way easier to find those things for Wacom here in Finland than it is for Huion... shipping from overseas can get costly and takes more time than walking to a local store and buy etc.

    I just bought my first tablet last week and you uploaded this...nice timing, hahah
    Anyways, my first tablet was Huion New 1060Plus (which I was convinced by multiple reviews, including yours) and I definitely didn't regret it because it works super good and I felt like the price is almost a steal for its quality--and I've been interested in a lot of Huion brands ever since that.
    It's truly possible to draw with a mouse (source: me who draws with them for over 6+ years until now) but a tablet is definitely worth the convenience and a great tool if you're serious about art; but indeed it doesn't automatically make you a better artist (that was my siblings' expectations when we first bought a Wacom Intuos years ago...lol)
    I like your example and comparison with the camera prices/quality thing; it's understandable on why Wacom gets a high price tag (they're like the BMW or Apple of tablet brands) but seeing how other companies have been doing great, there's many reasons to look into alternatives now especially if you're new and just want a good performing tablet. Overall, this is a great and honest video, your reviews and guides are superb man :'D

    THB, I got just as much from watching Mikey drawing as I did from listening to him dropping some knowledge about tablets.
    I've used a number of Wacoms over the years (started with a big Intuos 3 back in 2011, then got my own Bamboo, and now working with a Draw), and I like them a lot, but I'm really tired of having driver issues and the minimal amount of assistance from Wacom. So now I'm looking for a tablet with screen. So far I've liked the Huion GT-220 V2, the XP Pen 16", and the iPad Pro 12.9" with Apple Pencil. I'll update this after I buy one and share some thoughts.

The cables are just standard ones, there is no reason to pay shipping etc. for them.

    Ugee is the parent company of XP Pen and I have a similar experience using tablets since the late 80's early 90's. Based on experience everything is based on the artist and draw on screen whether it is on your phone, a tablet or drawing monitor. Those tools give you the closest experience to drawing like you would in a sketchbook or bristol board.

    This video is immensely helpful and pretty much exactly what I looked for. I've been fumbling about whether or not to make the jump to display tablets after using 2 pen tablets for about 4 years. After my second Monitor has recently died and I'm on my way to building a new pc (once I get to reorganizing my room) I considered "Hey, why not get a display Tablet, that I can use to draw on and also as a second monitor?". And since my screens are pretty old and I've never really known color accuracy I can only imagine it's an upgrade either way.
    Now I do have a question this video is almost 2 years old:
    Do you still recommend The GT-156HD V2 // GT-191 // and Kamvas pro 20?
    Are they still solid or are there newer releases that can replace them in their roles?
    I'm asking because I really don't need a big dick tablet but I'm way beyond the stage of "dipping my toes in art" at this point.
    Thanks for taking the time to read! I value your opinion and it would help me in makign the call.

    Actually I NEVER have driver issues with my any of my Macs, but I find the Intuos pressure sensitivity sucks with my PC (Laptop). The PC does work okay with the Cintiq 24HD (which I sold) albeit not so great with the Cintiq Pro 24.I must admit I have never used anything but Wacom products so I can't speak to any other brands.

    I currently use a samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition for my art. Autodesk sketchbook pro.
    I sketch by hand on paper before scanning to my pc and transferring it to my tablet to digitally.
    Been looking at the Wacom 13HD Crintique and so i can do also art streams.
    Still Im keeping my options open.
    As most tablets out there now are getting good in quality.
    Good choices in those links ya mentioned.
    Thank you so much for this vid. This has helped me narrow down my search a lot

    Although....Now Wacom is releasing a 600 $ 16 cintiq, and, maybe, an entire budget cintiq line might follow...I guess to fight back. Interesting times for buying a tablet.
    I've been always an advocate for non wacom (initially a wacom fan) but in durability..My intuos pro is like 10 years old... Not sure if one of these would last that much, that's my fear (as mine costed 800...but I could prepare the moment to fork those, while, suddenly have my cintiq-like die in the middle of a project...not cool. Specially in a bad financial moment and with a pressuring milestone....
    That said, I have a feeling that an XP, Yiynova orHuion should last more than 2-3 years, if, like all, treated with care...
    Full agree on the Deco 03. And non battery-free = often jitter.
    I can only consider 22 inches and higher,though, for work. I find it specially good for large scenes, detailed ones, less the case for close one-character shots, as you can do these comfortably in smaller tablets, too (you can do anything, but I mean, what I consider ideal)
    Yiynova not in the list....

    Thank you for that remark on pricing and warranty! I rather spend 50 bucks more for a 2 year warranty then get none for a discount or used product.
    Also after doing a lot of research I also think the XP Pen Deco 03 and the Huion Inspiroy Q11K v2 are the best pen tablets on a smaller budget.
    And I actually tended to the Huion Pro 22 than the 20 so it's really interesting to hear this!
    I also like the XP Pen 22E Pro :)

      If you're a beginner or don't mind using a different program, Medibang, Paint Tool Sai and Krita are way less heavy on performance than PS. Medibang and Krita are also free(you can find free versions of Sai easily btw).
      The tablet usually doesn't put any strain to the system, especially the no-screen ones.

    Been looking for a while at switching from Wacom to Huion, and videos like this make me even more confident in the decision. I use a 19" Wacom Mobile Studio Pro, and over the course of the two years that I've had it, it's glitched out, light leaked, lost pixels, and gotten obscenely hot and loud. It simply isn't worth what I sank into it, and the customer support has been some of the worst I've ever had to deal with. I cannot recommend Wacom anymore honestly.

    I used to draw using pencil exclusively but recently bought a Galaxy Note 9 because of the stylus and thought I could try using it to learn digital art as well - I got really into it and it's really fun - but the phone screen size is really small which started bugging me a bit. I could buy myself a drawing tablet but I'm not sure whether it would actually be worth the investment now that I have the Note 9 - I can't seem to find anyone that would compare the Note 9 experience to an actual drawing tablet... TLDR - is it really worth going for a drawing tablet when I already have a Note 9? And if yes - which one? I would definitely prefer tablets with a screen as I got used to the Note 9.

    When it comes to drawing on paper, I use to draw on DIN A 5 or even 6. I just can't draw on huge canvases. So buying a a big inch screen would be completely useless for me since I would use a very small part of the screen only anyways.
    I upgraded from a very old wacom bamboo with a drawing field of ~A6 to the xp pen 12. The xp pen already feels so extremely huge, haven't tried it yet tho.
