I Really hope that this video will help some of you!

I'm also using this exact tablet. It's super cheap and AMAZING! Great colors right out of the box. Two really cool things I found out about it are;
1)
If you turn the screen power off for the tablet, you can still use it as a drawing pad...MindBlown! I found this by accident cause I was just trying out the pen feel before I turned on the screen and the cursor was moving on my monitor. So you basically get two for one.
2) You don't have to run external power. It can be powered by any USB port on your computer!
I even got it to work as a mobile screen for my PS4 through the USB. I wouldn't use it for that though, it's a really bad gaming screen lol. I just wanted to see if it would actually work.
Can i use different pen on this device, e.g. pen from artist 12 or 22E
Thank you for this analysis and opinion.
Hello alon ... I'm a beginner , can you please tell me the program/software you used for sketching on the video .. maybe i can use it as a starter pack
jesus man, i haven't seen your channel in years. i remembered you when my little brother actually saw the Bakon video waaaay back when and i remembered that when i was in middle school i used to watch your vids religiously. MDI was my favorite channel and im sad that i even forgot about it. love your vids man hopefully you get the respect you deserve
Thank you for your kind words, it's good to have you back!
I'm always smiling when old subscriber found this new channel.
UA-cam is still a mess and people never realize that I NEVER stopped animating short cartoons for UA-cam since 2009.
Much Love!
Finally, someone who does a great review on the product and doesn't try to compare to other pen displays! You just gave us very professional review about the product itself and discussed if it was what people were looking for for their workflow with great example! Thank you! This review made me sub!
You're welcome, thank you for your kind words! :)
I'm glad that my reviews helps others my goal is to make people happy with their device of choice compare to their actual needs.
xp-pen is on fire these days! can't wait to see more from them in the future, I'll recommend xp-pen to my animator friends since it's cheaper than Wacom and not to mention xp-pen is almost on pare with some of wacoms tablets
Thanks for such a good review! I'll be ordering mine next week! Eep so excited!
thank you so much for your reviews on both products 21.5 and 15.6 Pro. I decided to go with the 15.6 because I like to move around and travel a lot. I appreciate the coupon code you provided! You now have a new fan! thank you again!
Thank you! Best review I've seen on this and it sealed my decision. I just bought it. Thank you for the code.
Thank you for the kind words, I'm glad it helps! :)
Thanks for the easy to follow review, I just ordered my artist 15.6 pro and I can't wait!
my wacom intuos died so it was the best time for me to purchase something else. I follow your work for a while and I trust your recommendations thanks Alon!
You're welcome! I'm glad it helps :)
How's the experience? it's been a month.
Is it still going strong i just ordered mine 😁
I'm planning on buying this!
thanks for this wonderful vid, very informative, and more importantly, insight from an easygoing artist and not some techie elitist
I love the power glove ...
Hey, cool video! Thank you very much for the promotional code I've just used it
Good work,
Thank you! :)
Really great review! other tech reviewers were very confusing while you're very clear.
I'm not sure if I'll order the Artist 22 Pro or this Artist 15.6 Pro I want both but I can only afford one. thanks for the discount I'll make sure to use it!
Both tablets have 1080p resolution so the smaller screen is going to look a lot sharper. Of course that said a 22" screen at 1080p is still pretty sharp (says the old person who remembers the time before HD and 4K).
Also worth noting that as of this post the 22 looks like it has the rechargeable pen and the 15.6 pro uses the EMR pen.
the 22 dose have a bigger screen which is vary useful to a lot of people but the 15.6 is a big enough screen that’s kind of a hard choice for me..
Thank you so much very useful... i await for mine soon i hope it reach me safe 💕
You're welcome, I'm glad that this video helps many artists! :)
Ok so how do I set up my red ring to scrub forward and backwards in clip studio paint during an animation?
Hello Alon Dan!
Thanks for the review and really found very informative..
Are you using still now? What about performances, heat issue, distortion and also about color accuracy?
I wanna buy this (holiday edition) but will you please clear this issue?
Thanks!
Bro you can just put stickers on the bottons to reconise them so just a tip :D
Your review must be one of my favs!! I’ve seen your comments etc below about how it would be better to get the 22 series for long hours do work - but currently I do not have the budget for that :/ do you still think 2-6 hours of work could be done with this?
Hi There, thank you for your kind words, I'm glad that my reviews are helping (that's my main goal).
Please understand, Everything I share is based on my personal experience: working with 16" or smaller is not the same as 22" or larger size screens mainly because of the working area or the "digital canvas" is obviously smaller that's why I always suggest to go with 22" or higher for longer sessions, or many days of work in the week.
If it's 1-3 hours a session I guess it can't hurt, that's what I recommend using it mainly: meetings with clients for / rough-ideas / sketches / storyboards so you can show something and it's GREAT that you can carry it with your laptop, showing stuff to people you work with is nice and easy, but again... for long-sessions / serious projects, I would recommend to save the money.
I hope it helps a bit, good luck! :)
Just used myne for the first time and its amazing for a 379.00 display
Thanks for the review! I am new to digital art and am just not able to afford Wacom tablets at the moment, XP pen seems to be an amazing budget friendly alternative. Just a question, would you recommend this tablet for a beginner?
Hi There!
If you're looking for a something that you'll use a lot, I would say it worth getting either this model, or the 22 Pro / 22E Pro (E is with the express buttons).
Listen to my advice at the end of the video it will help you consider what type of model you should get based on your needs (mobile / workstation).
My advice is that you'll start with with 15" or 22". These are my favorite models from XP-Pen because I'm still using them for many hours a day.
Another advice: on the description I post my reviews to the other 15.6 (not pro) model, you should also check it out, it is different a bit but also cheaper in case budget is an issue. I also review the 22PRO (which is almost like the 22E Pro, without the express keys).
If you don't need the express keys, the models will be cheaper for you and you should consider it as well.
I hope these tips helps a bit, I wish you best luck with your digital art journey! :)
Hi Alon,
Thanks for the review, it was really helpful and informative. What software do you find works best with the XP pro for animation? Thanks again.
Hi There,
I'm glad that the review helped you that's my main goal. :)
The 2D Animation software I'm working on these days is not available to the public yet, but I will share and talk about it in the future so if you're interested just subscribe to this channel with the "BELL" notification for future updates so you won't miss it (or any of my short cartoons).
I will do my best to announce it sooner or later, but at the moment I don't know exactly when... stay tuned ;)
Mines came today
Hello, have you encountered issues with scratches on the display over time?
Some people mentioned it being full of scratches after half a year of usage. Depends on the pressure you apply, I guess, but what is your experience with this?
Hi There,
Good question, let me share my personal experience:
To be honest, I use many different devices during the last 2 decades (I'm a Dinosaur) and I've never seen a device with no scratches after some time. This is why xp-pen installed an extra layer around the screen so if you want to keep your device scratches-free (or should I say minimize it) don't remove it.
In this specific model it's not simple to remove it, because it's pre-installed from under the panel warping around the glass so the "scratches" apply to this layer and not to the glass itself.
On the old XP-Pen devices the users (us) had to install it by ourselves and it was never perfect, had air-bubbles and it didn't feel good to draw on unlike in this device.
My tip is, be gentle, and to keep the life of the device longer switch the nibs once they get too sharp.
From my experience, I barely have scratches and they are really hard to notice and believe me I'm KILLING the device since I use it a lot and as I mention on the video, Frame-by-Frame animation X hours of intensive sessions is very crucial compare to ANY other workflow.
Even on my Wacom Cintiq I have some scratches after few years of intensive use, but it's a different story since the Wacom Cintiq have a special glass warped with actual defensive extra layer for anti-scratches and another layer to prevent reflections so it's not the same as the XP-Pen devices in that department (and in many others of course) that's just one of the reasons why it costs less than a Wacom.
I hope that this helps a bit, good luck! :)
@@AlonDan Thank you for your detailed reply about your experience! It was very helpful and I will keep this in mind.
Great video! I just got my tablet and needed an honest review since I also want to be an Animator. I mostly use Maya and Photoshop, what express keys should I have in my settings? Or what settings do you have apart from the display on the wheel?
Congrats! glad this video helped you.
Your question is very personal, it's up to you and your comfort with hotkeys either on keyboard, express keys or combination.
Whatever works for you, as long as you feel "at home" while creating your art :)
What animating softwware do you use?
Thanks for the review! I'd really like to get this, but one thing keeping it from me is an issue I've seen around where it's impossible to use left-handed mode. Can you confirm whether this holds true? Maybe the problem has been addressed via an update. I wouldn't be able to use it otherwise.
Hi There!
Glad the review helps, The cool thing is that you can flip the device 180 degrees (so the buttons will be on the other side) and also flip the display using the drivers. so to your question: it is for both Right & Left-handed. :)
I hope it helps!
Thanks! That's awesome, two people in the house will use it and one is left handed. Do you happen to know if tilt mode can be used with custom tool presets (*TPL) in Photoshop?
Hi, this pen display antiglare layer is eye protective? and another question, you can rotate the display and setting left handed mode?
Hi There,
Yes it is for both Left & Right handed you can flip it using the Drivers.
Sorry not sure what you mean by: eye protective, but yes it is anti-glare full laminated as I mention and show on the video.
I hope this helps a bit :)
It def does! I'm a hobbyist who currently works off a Galaxy Tab A in a flip book style. How do you think this would work for an older laptop? I'm running an I5 with 8G of RAM, Intel 520 graphics. I would love to have a work space where I don't have to export as individual files and render in a 3rd software.
Hi There,
If your Laptop is working and you have HDMI and USB free to connect the Artist 15.6 Pro to it, I don't see any problem but only you know your hardware, after all it is a screen.
The main reason I love this model beside it's features is because I need it all the time with my Laptop so whenever I go, it will be available inside my Laptop's bag wherever I go, ready to connect and go.
Don't forget, this device can be connected to any other computer (with HDMI, USB and Supported OS). Just but make sure to always install the latest version of the drivers (it's always updates and gets better and better).
Another advice is to have the latest version of the drivers on a disk-on-key in case you don't have internet connection.
I hope it helps, good luck! :)
@@AlonDan thanks so much for the info. I ended up buying it. And actually saved the 10% and had an amazon card. XD got it $65 cheaper. :) what would you say a standard set up for a pc should be as far as harddrive ans system specs for animation should be. Im a hobbyist, but def want to get better results from my digital and graphic design.
I bro, what software do you use to animate?
can you tell us the name of apps you used to test this xp pen? like one i recognize as photoshop. what are others?
I used Harmony for the character design (not using it anymore) and Krita for the background.
In the future, I will update in my socials or maybe in the channel about my favorite software for 2D Animation.
How does drawing in this compare to drawing on your yoga 720 laptop you plugged it into?
Hi There,
I guess you're wondering about actual laptop + digital pen comparison to this device, unfortunately I can't answer that because I'm not using the model you've mentioned so I can't compare, If you're curious about the laptop I used on this video, there is a link to similar specs on the description.
TIP: I wouldn't compare a dedicated display screen like this model for example, to "ALL-IN-ONE" laptop which usually warming up very quick + eating up the battery so it's hell to work it for serious sessions, just my 2 cents.
I hope it helps! :)
I am looking for a tablet for 3d art, would you select this tablet over the 22epro?
Hi There, Like I say in the video: if you're traveling a lot this model will do the job for you, but if you need a bigger stable workstation the 22E Pro will do a great job, 22" models are my favorite size to work with because of the extra space for the interface on any software.
I hope that this helps a bit, good luck! :)
what your animat program?
I don't know which to chose... From hunion gt 191 to this tablet to xpen 22e pro
Since I didn't try the model you've mention I can only recommend the models I reviewed on my channel.
Since I still use them I can say for sure that they're doing a great job!
is it good to buy this device in 2020
What app?
Question: do you always have to have the computer or laptop plugged to the tablet? Or is it just to transfer the stuff from your computer to the laptop
Hey There, let me try to explain:
First of all this is not a tablet, it's a Screen / Display / Monitor like any screen you would connect to your computer but with more options.
Yes, you must connect it to a computer if you want to see what you are doing, after all it is a screen with a digital pen and extra features.
I hope it helps :)
Alon Dan yes, it helps a lot, thank you
I recently tested out the XP Pen 15.6 pro as I was considering buying it myself. I found only one problem, and was hoping someone could help me with this.
The tablet isn't detecting my light strokes, I naturally don't draw with insane amount of pressure, but rather start with light and then build up. But it wasn't detecting my pen's pressure at all. (I'm used to drawing on a Wacom 13 pro at work and it detects all my lines). This feels like a deal breaker. Is there some solution to this problem, a way I can make the device more sensitive to my use?
Please advice .
It sounds very weird since for me it works on light and heavy pressure as I draw and paint so I never had this issue with the device, I'm still using it and enjoy it's features.
Anyway, here 3 options that may help you out:
1. Try it on different applications to see if the issue is on a specific application only, if it is send an email to XP-Pen they may fix it on the next update.
2. Try play with the the sensitivity on the panel, make sure it is for the specific application to see if the issue is with the application or not.
3. If nothing helps, I'm guessing your device may be damaged or something wrong with the installation of the drivers (sometimes people forget to uninstall other Drivers of their older devices that may cause clashes or issues).
If nothing helps, email XP-Pen they are always do their best to solve problems. I hope this helps a bit, have a nice day and good luck! :)
Hello, you reviewed some time ago non pro version, so how its compared to non pro? Non pro version have a very attractive price now 100 bucks less. Is it worth that difference?
I recommend that you'll watch both reviews and compare for yourself, your needs, your budget and see if you need the extra improvements and features, then check out the current prices since they're changing every now and then.
TIP: This is currently my favorite traveling model mostly because of the Ring wheel, extra express keys, stand and fully illuminated screen. if it's in your budget don't think twice, get the PRO, if not the older model is very nice as well but make sure to watch my reviews of both and check the links to compare all the technical differences before you purchase.
I hope it helps a bit, Good Luck! :)
this tablet works well with toomboom harmony? anyone knows?
How about when you tilt the pen? I know at least for my huion Kamvas pro 12, when I tilt my pen at different angles and directions, the cursor will shoot away from the tip of my stylus. I'm really hoping that it's just something that happens with Huion's models because I recently got a replacement pro 12 with the same problem. However, if this is the industry standard, I might just stick to the screenless variety.
Hi There,
I'm not sure if that's what you mean... but when I tilt the pen the brush (in-software mouse target) stays on the tip of the pen and not moving, but only do it's tilt function IF the software you're using supports it of course.
BTW - I didn't try Huion yet so I can't really say or compare it.
@@AlonDan Hey, thanks for the quick response! To clarify what I meant, I believe the video here shows exactly what I'm talking about: ua-cam.com/video/gGSDapMf4No/v-deo.html . If you can't click it for some reason, the video is called "XP-Pen ARTIST 15.6 Pro Review (2019 Model) 🖊" and the demonstration of the tilt offset starts at about 4:14. Again, thank you very much for taking the time to respond, it means a lot.
Hi sorry for the late reply, I'm doing my best :)
This video example make no sense to me, First of all the pen tilt is 60 Degrees... not 120-180 like shown in the video so of course it won't act as it should, it's not supported...
Who in the world actually drawing like that?? this is weird for me, sorry but I must be honest.
with all the respect to this person, I don't understand what is he trying to prove or show or break?
As I said, I'm not a reviewer but one thing is sure, I worked with this product for about 3 weeks before I even share my experience with it.
There was no issue for me with the tilt, I made the background you see on the video using it a lot in Krita and it was nice, it's not perfect but it's better than no-tilt for people who paint or sculpt digitally.
Sorry if I can't really help in this, I don't understand what some reviewers are trying to show instead of actually test it on creating stuff, that's why I'm not a reviewer but an animator. ;)
what the name of your software animation?
I want to invest into screen tablet, but I'm usually worrying over functionality, because I'm a left handed
Hi There,
You don't have to worry about it.
All you need to do is to flip the device so the buttons on the other side,
In the drivers panel: there is an option to FLIP the screen, Done!
I hope it helps :)
Thanks for good review. Im thinking to buy this display tablet to replace my Wacom MSP and Companion2 that died after 15 (and 18) months of use. Im tired to waste my money on Wacom, because it has the worst service ever and from my experience wacom devices live no more than 1 year. (Don’t worth its money).
So does this tablet run good on krita?
Yes it is, not just for Krita but for other painting programs.
BTW I used Krita for the background on this video and it was AWESOME!
do you know where I can get the connector (not cable) for the xp-pen 16.5?
Hi There, I'm not sure what do you mean but if it's Hub I'm using different models, the current one I'm using is this: amzn.to/2LNWqHK
If you mean something related to XP-Pen hardware that come within the box, you rather email XP-Pen and ask them.
I hope it helps a bit, have a good day! :)
@@AlonDan no, I mean the connector on the 16.5. need one for repair
@@Tater1337 I have no idea what is this part and I never had anything broken from XP-Pen yet so I suggest you'll ask their support.
I couldn’t tell, what drawing software were you using?
He's using Krita, it does art and animation in one app...oh yeah it's also FREE!!!!!!!!
I love it, super easy to install. Lots of customizing options and does everything other apps do. The only thing that may throw you off, if you're used to another program, is that you might have to look up specific tools cause they aren't easy to find (but they are there) and a few of them are named differently. I honestly don't remember which ones exactly cause I already found them, but there are very few times this will happen anyway.
A simple google search will work fine; "where is the warp tool in Krita?"
Answer: it's in the Transform(Ctrl+T) > 'Tool Options' dock
(Dockers are your on screen menus; Layers, Undo History, etc.)
In this video I used "Krita" for making the background and for the character design I used a 2D Animation software: "Harmony Premium" and everything works GREAT!
Like I mention on the video I had no issues and I'm very happy with this model.
I hope it helps :)
Is the screen a paper like matte feel or is it slippery? I like my display to have some tooth
To be honest it's hard to describe the exact feeling.
It does have some amount of roughness feeling but at the same time it's smoother than paper and pencil since at the end of the day it's glass and digital pen with anti-static plastic nibs and not a paper and pencil.
The good thing, it doesn't feel like stylus on smartphones (which I can't stand).
The full illumination layer that installed over the screen gives the pen the some amount of roughness and also it is why it's not very reflective like I show when I remove the protection nylon, and of course it's saving from future scratches on the actual screen which is awesome!
In my personal pinon it's great and I like it, but if you've never used a digital pen-display before.. don't expect it to feel like an actual paper because it won't, it's something you get used too while drawing, it will take you 2-3 minutes to forget it's a digital pen display and you'll probably get used to it. I hope that this information helps.
Alon Dan very helpful info! Thanks man! Gonna buy mine next week :D
Any new updates on it after using it for a while? Things you like/don’t like etc..
Sounds like you made your choice, I'm glad I could help! :)
There is nothing much to update, I'm still using it a lot.
I may try other brands or models in the future if I'll have the time but for now this is my favorite 15.6" device for work while traveling.
TIP: If you'll keep it safe and be gentle like you should with any device, it can serve you for YEARS!
Alon Dan Awesome! I’m pretty good at taking care of my devices so I’m super excited to give this a spin! Thank you again for your honest review :)
Only £135 at Aamzon - I'm not an illustrator but it's beyond tempting
Hello , what application do you use ?
I use a software called: Toon Boom Harmony for my cartoons.
I introduce it to beginners on THIS VIDEO: ua-cam.com/video/iT_oMHF8Bs0/v-deo.html ❤️
Usually when I see reviews that focus heavily on the parallax they film it from the side, where such gaps become big and obvious. But that's not the angle you normally draw at. Thanks for keeping face on ^_^
So true! Thanks for watching :)
Does the tablet need to be connected to the laptop?
Yes
I don't mind paying more money for this Display tab with 4K resolution...
I really wanna know the build quality, how long this product last..
I'm still using my old XP-Pen 22" HD model (about 3 years of heavy use) and other models for over a year now, everything is stable like it was when I first used it and I'm a VERY intensive user, many hours every day, 5-6 days a week...
I don't know how other Wacom Alternatives will handle my intensive work.
From my personal experience so far XP-Pen are great, but I may try other brands in the future because I'm curious if they can handle ME! :)
Alon Dan thank you for the reply, because I’m really curious about the build quality when I’m try to invest in something else beside Wacom products
Thank you so much, I was hoping there was a great review (like yours) on this new tablet already. I am trying to decide which XP-Pen to get (I have six in my cart right now lol) and this was high on my list, since it seems that you can replace the screen film/protector? I don't like the included stand, it doesn't tilt at an high enough angle for me, but I can easily buy a better stand.
One question, did you have trouble with the drivers on Windows 10? I have read many reviews, where users state that XP-Pen and Windows 10 are really bad together. Also some other brand tablets install drivers, that make Windows think that you are using a touch panel from now on. It's a bit annoying, because the onscreen keyboard will pop up a lot e.g. on Windows login etc, and I hate that.
Hi There,
Thank you for your kind words, I'm glad that this review helps.
As I mention on the video, I never had any issues, from day 1 until this day everything works smooth.
Just to be clear: I'm using XP-Pen's different models for about 3 years now and I never had issues with the drivers and windows 10.
I don't know about this issue you describing because I never had any issue like this.
My guess is that people install more then one touch/screen/tablet devices combine with the XP-Pen (or any other similar device) and that may cause confusion or clashes between drivers and windows 10.
I must clarify that this is only my guess (as a past PC technician) but I can't say for sure because I never ran into these issues myself with any of the XP-Pen models running on Windows 10.
I can't guarantee that it will work smooth on your machine or not because I only tested mine on my Laptop and Workstation PC and everything works 100% smooth for me, which makes me truly happy BTW, I wouldn't like to waste time fighting with installations, I rather use this time to be creative.
What I suggest is to ask XP-Pen about this before you purchase a specific model while describe them your hardware / software just so you'll be sure.
Also, if you're still need to decide what model to get, even if it's not a model I mention on my reviews, listen to my advice at the end of the video before you purchase ANY device, I wouldn't like you to invest your money on something you won't be happy with as I rather you and everyone else to smile and be creative. :)
Sorry for the long reply, I hope this helps a bit.
Thank you so much for taking the time to give me such a detailed reply. I am thinking of getting the Artist 15.6 Pro, and your promotion code helps as well. Just wish they had this Tablet as a prime item, but it seems 3rd party (XP) only. Thank you again, I really appreciate this and best of luck with your amazing work. I love what you are doing!
I want one but I don’t have a laptop to Cary around with me
You can connect it to any computer that have USB and HDMI connection, it doesn't have to be a laptop. :)
Does adobe animate work with this?
Yes
Is it true the tablet has no paper texture? He said that he had no texture BUT that was a prototype model. Does this model have tooth? It is my BIGGEST concern and no one's talking about it.
Hi There, let me share my experience on this subject:
After many years of using almost any Wacom Cintiq Device and XP-Pen model, I NEVER felt this "paper texture" it is always just another layer of matte or plastic to make the pen less smooth, but it is never feels like a paper.
I'm not sure what you're looking for, but if you want a paper texture, use paper and scan your drawings, there is nothing like paper, if it's a non-screen tablet like wacom intuos, put a paper on it and draw over. (not that I recommend it, but if this is what you want give it a try).
In person, I wouldn't like to have a rough paper-like texture to a glass it will slow me down, I'm after the smoothness but I understand and respect that every user is after a different experience.
For the XP-Pen Artist 15.6 Pro the screen is full laminated so it doesn't feel like pure smooth glass, there is a texture feel to it but I wouldn't compare it to a paper texture.
I hope this helps a little bit, have a good day! :)

Is it necessary to connect the tablet to a pc ?
yep, need a pc to get the tablet working
Yes, you must connect it to a PC, it's not a Tablet, it's a screen :)
Hey ! Do you HAVE to possess a computer in order to buy this tablet ?
Yes, it's screen with a pen.
You must have PC to connect it, I hope it helps :)
Alon Dan okay thank you a lot ! Great video btw ☺️
Is this more advance than the xp pen 22E Pro?
Yes, but I wouldn't compare the two.
I'm using the Artist 15.6 Pro model when I travel since it's slim and smaller. I'm using the Artist 22E Pro as my steady workstation so I must be honest: I truly LOVE both models a lot, I cannot recommend enough!
I highly recommend you to watch my 22Pro review which is similar to the 22E Pro without the express keys (I use both models) just to get to see what's best for you before you decide.
I hope this helps a bit, Good Luck! :)
I thought fully-laminated screen meant there is no parallax. Isn't that the purpose of a fully-laminated screen?
Nope, it means the screen is fully laminated with extra layer that makes the actual screen/glass more matte (less reflective) more rough for drawing (less smooth) and most important: it save the screen from scratches that may cause during intensive use over the years from the nibs of the pen, mine have no single scratch and I'm using it a lot!
It also means it's not a tape-like layer that you need to install manually like in other devices, it's fully laminate from surrounding out and in and it's the best that we, the consumers don't have to handle such mess.
BTW - I don't know where did you hear about this imaginary technology with no parallax (for this date) maybe in the future when we won't draw over a glass screen, or a hologram or maybe lasers or... who knows what I'm not a scientist but an animator. ;)
Hope it helps a bit, good luck!
The huion gt-221 paralax was pretty bad and it was only a few years ago, maybe a 2017 or 2018 tablet.
I didn't try Huion models yet so I can't say if it's good or not since I only share my 100% honest opinions based on my personal experience.
I consider to give it a try because both animation students and average consumers are asking me about my perspective as a pro-user (animator) on Huion v.s. XP-Pen all the time. Since I'm extremely busy I can't guarantee anything we'll see... ;)
The fact you have to buy the Pro version just to have the stand included is ridiculous. But then again, Wacom makes you spend $2000 on a single tablet so I can’t say much
Is this good to buy in 2020?!
I'm still using it, I don't see any reason why not beside price is probably cheaper now.
You have a point. Thanks!!
Hi! Can't your eyes get tired being in front of that screen for many hours? Do you have a protector for that?
It's like any other screen, if the brightness is too high for you, tweak the brightness (like phones and tablets) until it won't.
I'm not a doctor, but if your eyes are tired being in front of ANY screen after a short time, I would suggest to check with a doctor.
I suggest to NEVER work more than you can, you health should be the highest priority. :)
For years, I'm working on long sessions with the bigger size screens (22" and higher), and with the 16" or smaller only few hours per session because I mainly use it for mobility and not big projects, which is GREAT for that purpose from my experience.
I hope that this helps a bit, good luck!
Dude just put color stickers on button better yet put the tool on the sticker. Get avery stickers you can print out the yool on them
I actually tried that, it's not sticking for long and heavy uses... sliding even with HARDCORE stickers which is annoying to me in person, I tried different stickers as well... not my favorite solution, but thanks for sharing, I appreciate it. :)
