Remember, don't draw and drive!
Why?
Vain Designs I love this!
Rob Liefeld does it... ua-cam.com/video/yPhlWKi9uKQ/v-deo.html
It's drink and drive smh
I obviously want to be r/wooshed lol
@@Som3D I only woooosh people who don't say woooosh in their comments
I’m so glad that people are appreciating this tablet. I found out about it while snooping on their website early September and I’m so glad that everyone’s starting to take notice of this amazing thing!
getting this for christmas so really love watching all these reviews! I'm very excited to try it out!
samme
My wallet: "i dont need it... i dont need it..."
Me: *I NEED ITTTT*
its rly cheap tho,especially now because u can get it 200 bucks on amazon free shipping
Fanticallife Gaming lol I bought mine today for the same price
@tripniD Animations I will order one next week! and now binge watch all reviews too HOHO
@tripniD Animations hard to decide between 12 and 13.3 because I use a lot of 3d modelling tools that need a bit more precision. :I
SAME BROOOO
This is a great review! I usually cant focus when its longer videos and dont watch it to the end but this one kept me interested!
The "drawing while driving" bit caught me off guard. XD
Bravo! Wonderful review.
Mine just came in the mail today and I haven't been able to put it down. Love this thing and it's perfect for my simple setup. One thing I wish I would have gotten a stand with it but I have a laptop bed table that does the same thing
"I'm gonna skim through a lot of the unboxing" ...proceeds to unbox everything normally. 😂
I'm pretty sold on this review. I'm a hobbyist artist, so I'm not pro by any stretch of the word but I understand easily the points you've made. Subbed, thanks for the help brother!
Can't wait to order this tablet next week :D
I just purchased this tablet and am waiting for it to be delivered. Thank-you for this informational video.
A 250 draw on the screen? That's pretty insane. I saw the new 600 dollar one and was surprised at that
@FaTaL 0tiz I've seen so many reviews and they say it's wonderful. The cons are the screen is a tad bit pixelized, seems real small to others, but overall if you're doing it as a hobby or need something inexpensive it's a great deal.
blurr cxntl its a really good tablet
The 12 pro is $175 right now on xp-pen's website.
Thank for this review Trent! I've been looking at various tablets for a very long time. I eventually want to move from my Intous Pro to a screen display and this looks like a great option!
I've been thinking about getting one. Thanks for the review!!
Thank you. You answered a number of questions that I had in mind. I'll likely be buying this as a result, maybe the 15.6" version.
Awesome review and loved the art at the end !
Thank you! I've been wondering either to buy from them or not!
I was positive it would at least be nice for a beginner, but you bumped up my decisions to get it more sooner than later.
I'm getting this tablet Saturday and I can't wait so I'm looking at all reviewing videos I can find x)
loved the drawing and the review! now definitely going to buy this
Thank you for the review! It really helped me with the final desicion whether I should purchase it or not.
Thank you for the review. Amazing details for this!
Watching every review I can find before buying the tablet lol I'm excited to try it out!
wow me and your icon have like allmoste the samw charecter
great review, love the art piece you did omgah looked so nice.
Oh sweet
I just ordered this thing!
I didn't think to look up reviews, tho it seems I didn't need to! Cuz this just showed up on my Recommended!
I'm so excited for my tablet to arrive!
thank you so much for your review I'm trying to improve on my art and move more to digital because there are more options and I was looking at this on amazon for cheap and surprising price im very happy that my first well be considered a good product by a professional artist thank you
Thank you for this review! I will take your word for it! Good quality for pro work and not at a crazy price !
Great review. Love the painting too! Thanks
I’m soooo glad I bought this for Christmas!
Your review of this product solidified my decision to buy it. Thank you.
that drawing just speaks to me. i love the style!
I got one back in September after my XP Pen 16 broke. It's been a few months and now pretty much every artist I follow has given it a positive review. Glad I made the right choice.
Got recommended your video, and i have a poster from you that was given to me by my father hung on my wall! Thanks for the review!
I have a Xp-Pen 15.6, it's only a bit more expensive than this one but its has a laptop size screen. Best purchase of my life. Xp-Pen is great, Trent try to make them send you a Deco 03 or 02, they're traditional tablets like the one you use and they're awesome. They cost LESS than the crappy base Intuos models and they perform like he Pro you're using. I know because I used to have your same exact model... I sold it after trying their tablets lmao :P
Oh man. I wish they'd sent me the 15 inch. I've requested the deco 3 and thinking of switching over to XP pen entirely.
Trent Kaniuga I'm pretty sure that if you ask them with the promise of reviewing it on your channel they're going to send it or at least replace it. They're always looking for famous sponsors like you ;)
hey man, can I draw in this device individually or does it have to be connected to my pc?
I also want a deco review ...
Does XP pen come with photoshop or do you buy it separately?
Amazing review man I was just thinking about buying this as a newbie to digital art and now Im sure that I really want this.
Same here, i'm going to order one of these next week :)
Fab video and review thank you, and I loved your drawing of Mr Fox (or is it Mr. Wolf.......apologies if I got it wrong....whatever.... it's brill)
So glad to see this get a good review. I'm very much on a budget so every dollar counts. Thanks Trent!
A lot of college student's also appreciate these kinds of tablets. Classes suck the life out of our wallets.
Completely believe that!
Thank you! Been on the fence for a year. Gonna make the jump!
Great video Trent
i got a XP-PEN deco 01 and i absolutely love it.it's cheap and it does what it offers greatly.definitely recommend this
year later, but such a great review , definitely convinced me.
after I saw how you made your art I think that tablet is awesome.
My hands to smol to fit in the glove :(
Thats what O.J. said.
Hi Doland trump
🍳
There are other companies who sell many different glove sizes, it doesn’t have to be an official XP Pen one
Most on point review i appreciate it. this will be my first digital!!! :) btw its on sale for 200 right now guys!
The cylinder's lid is a pen holder..I have one of these tablets and recently found that out.
all the time i've spent looking into these wacom alternatives, xp pen is the best yet
amazing artwork!
Sweet review!
Thanks this was very helpful!
Just bought this and I love it :D
Oh... and that's a great piece of artwork!
Same here!
can you please tell me about the color accuracy?
im stuck on two other tablet options and want to see if artist12 is to go for
I use wacom intous draw already 2 years old now. Do i need to get new one?
They just released the xp Pen 12 pro and it was 175$.... I had to buy it. Thanks for the review!
I love Xp pen! I recently got the star 06 mainly because I wanted the little rotating wheel but everything about it just feels great. I don't feel ready to try with a screen because I'm clumsy and have a ton of cats that just love to lie on my tablet but I will definitely stick with xp if I do.
Hey man, appreciate the video thanks. Lots to think about. I have a small Wacom tablet and am considering a draw on screen tablet as an alternative. I have trouble with pen location on my tablet and using it becomes annoying. By that I mean where on the canvas my pen touches down in relation to where that is on my tablet. It always seems to be off to the side of the tablet. I googled how to change the location of my pen but couldn't figure it out. A screen drawing device wouldn't have this problem presumably. Has something to do with two screens? For my pen to be the center of the canvas I need to place the window halfway through the two monitors which is obviously not viable.
just got mine last week.. for the same price as the xmas set you can have the tablet/sleeve/metal stand and extra fitting glove (supplied one is L and I needed an M ). Even if I don't draw it is used as a second monitor !
I am using a Windows PC that has a hdmi outlet, would i need any additional adapters for this?
Can you help me I have this installed on my computer but I can get it to work. I can draw on tablet and it show in computer as well and I cant the tablet to open the drawing program etc..
hello i trent i love your artwork i'm currently looking to start drawing on graphic tablets, also im looking for programs as well i say you have photo shop is that a monthly subscription?
Thank you for actually taking the time to do a drawing with the device to put it through its paces. I actually bought an XP Pen stand you showed in the video separately for my ipad and im really happy with it, I thought on amazon it also said most XP Pen tablets dont come with the stand... Ive tried to used huion and wacom drivers on the same PC and yeah its the same problem, one usually cancels out the other.
Hey Trent do you think this tablet would also work with blender and krita? I really need it to help when I'm painting textures in Blender and substance. What I'm trying ask is before I buy it to replace my old non display tablet, will it show any software on the display?
Is their any delay with the brush when u paint on this or none?
I think the whole "no lag" thing really determines what shape your laptop and/or your pc is in. Or how much ram you have. I mean it dose matter if you buy a good drawing monitor but I think (again) it mostly matters with the computer.
There is a bit of pen latency thing that should be taken into consideration,but its pretty low usually like 20 ms on average
For Zbrush beginner as first tablet is it good pls?
that watercolor brush is insane
Currently on sale for $210 on Amazon.
same on aliexpress
Isn't it a midyear discount or smthn like that?
175.99 now!
199.99 now
just ordered one of these yesterday! glad to see you think its a good one, now im even more excited!
so is it good or no?
@@zeke70920 it's very good! The line quality is a lot better than my old tablet and the display is easy to look at, and you can adjust the brightness if you need to. My only issue is that the screen flashes at times, like the brightness is being rapidly turned up and down, but customer service has sent me a new connector cable so hopefully that'll fix my issue. Def reccomend
@@butterscott9214 oh I see well guess I'm buying
@@butterscott9214 you probably wont answer, but does it need to be hooked up to a computer or is it fully portable? Thats a big factor for me as I want to use it at places such as the stableyard (I have horses) and while travelling.
@@Caz_Hamilton unfortunately it does need to be hooked up to the computer :( its pretty much like a monitor you can draw on. If you want something portable you're better off with something like an ipad
Im very curious to know how is this compared to the Huion Kamvas Pro 12, wich is at a similar price (a little more expensive). It has its own pro and cons but I wanted to see wich one was better from a proffesional artist point of view and why
You only need to use the extra power cord if you're connected to e.g. a Macbook that can't charge your tablet over USB. On a regular computer, all you need to connect is the USB and HDMI cables.
Will you review their 15.6" models? What do you think of the colors on th 12" model?
Great video, is the xp pen 12 drawing tablet compatible with Corel Paint Shop pro program?
my son is looking at one of these. I am worried his laptop won't run it as it is a lower to mid range laptop. Also what software can he run on windows with it. He is leaving his old ipad and procreate to this unit. Please give any feed back you can would be appreciated
I just bought this what is a good program to use with this.. ty for the video👍
I’m glad I saw this video I’m using a Wacom tablet (no screen) from work at home and I prefer to draw on screen c it’s more familiar and I deff. Didn’t want to spend on Wacom or intuos and most certainly NOT but an IPad. I will deff. Consider getting this.
Hi, I’m about to buy xp pen deco pro, but I might buy this one too. I have an 30” 4K monitor connected to a laptop, so what do you say, should I give 70$ more and buy this one ?
Does it work with the hp Windows 14-cf1010ds?
can you connect it to a samsung chomebook
Omg I fall in love of the brushes that u use can u upload them or just the one u use to blind pls
Is the glove so your lower fingers don't add extra points of contact?
Got my xp pen 12 this week ... Love it , but my only issue is the easer at the end of the pen. It scratched my screen permanently, and has no pressure sensitivity. It just plain erases. Therefore I don't recommend using it.
Otherwise awesome tablet at great price!
I can't find the video where you continue colorizing this sketch, it's gone from my playlists too, did you remove it? :( Or am I missing something? It was my go-to video. Please share the link, anyone
Does it come with any installed software? if not is there a way to install them.
with my xpen 12 artist i have a problem when i use photoshop cs6. i can't draw when i press ctrl+alt+Z for remove anything, i mean, before i can, but after that i only can draw straight lines. not any curve or anything... and i checked the drivers. are everything correctly instaled and updated :/ i missed something with photoshop cs6?
Were you ever able to fix this? I'm having the same issue. I got mine yesterday
I bought this device today, It'll arrive tomorrow, thanks for review :>
Cinnabomb how is it so far?
@Cinnabomb I don't wanna bombard you with messages but how is it so far?
Actually it's amazing I couldn't see a difference between cintiq and xppen, I used cintig before btw. I even finished a art project with it :3
@@nuclearcinnabon490 I'm going to be annoying, excuse me lol.
Are the colors such a problem or are they bright enough. Is there a big difference between the computer screen and the tablet screen (pixels, colors, etc).
And the pen, I heard the lean was pretty bad but when you draw at a lean, is it pretty decent? Also, the size, is it good for a beginner or is it too small?Is the pen pressure okay.
Sorry, I just REALLY want a good drawing tablet that's affordable.
I wonder.. How good would it be for taking notes for students?
Does it just duplicate the screen or can you extend the screen?
Would anyone recommend this to beginners in drawing tablets?
I was looking for an alternative for my cintiq i have and ive been using my ipad pro for art which is actually great but it doesnt make sense to have two clip studio softwares one being subscription based. Even tho its fine, CSP lags because I guess my ipad pro is getting old and the reason why I want another tablet is really cause of less cords. It just seems like a hassle to set up my cintiq and especially since my desk has limited space. So im really tempted to buy XP Pen.
Awesome video
I also have been curse with gigantic hands and i just bought this pad a week ago. I would guess that the screen size doesn't matter much, considering you can zoom in and out for the small details
u said u dont use digital tablets with a screen so which ones you use...i wanna do comic art in sketchbook🤷🏾♂️
How about the new surface pro? review plz.
How did you go to that? :0 I have the same kind of tablet too, so please tell me!
Will this work with a Lenovo Chromebook?
As far as the driver, yeah, my XP-Pen 22 does the same with my intuos...so not something unique to this device.
Also, Im guessing this device doesnt do multitouch or support tilt?
That's water color brush is so really cool
Hi! can it be used disconnected?
Im using Deco 01 + PenPN05. I think its the best choice for those who wants fine price, quality, and top specifications of graphic tablet. Btw its japanese brand. Looks like Wacom was just a monopolists and their price was pumped from nothing. But having a famous brand, not makes u draw better, right? For the compare, same size and spec. will be x6 increased price than Deco 01. Im also can advice Star 6, 6C, 3. (Sorry for my English)
ayyy the 2019 brushes update
I am begginer...I want a drawing tablet but I am confused which one is best for me in cheap price.....Can I use it... without conect any camputer or laptop .....I want a drawing table just connect power supply and draw....It is possible in xp pen artist 12
What software is he using ?
I still have mixed emotions about this. I own one but never really use it because I prefer using my Wacom Intuos Pro but today I came across your video while searching how to connect the XP-Pen again. lol. I am about to use it for a quick design since I don't have my Wacom tablet with me right now.
Would you still reccomemend this as an entry level for a traditional painter moving into digitial?
Yes.
