    I am quite disappointed that Maria was visibly not impressed and she even mentioned that it would be better to just have an iPad instead of the computer+display Kombo (at 11:26) and my man clearly steered the conversation into the opposite of what she meant. It's honestly very disingenuous and untrustworthy. It's also glanced over that Maria clearly said the tracking for the pen isn't very good, which immediately disqualifies this product for artists, as the tracking of the latest tablets is pretty accurate.
    Also 800 bucks is not "doesn't cost you an arm and a leg", when you can buy a tablet in the same price range and have an independent OS on it.
    I hope you guys take these words as constructive and refrain from such obvious biased product placement where you do not really give an honest opinion.

    I got a portable ~15" external 4K monitor for ~$129 shipped. USB-C powered and mini HDMI. Obviously a laptop screen slapped into an aluminum frame, but incredible value for money. Only 60Hz, no clue on color accuracy, no touch, and speakers are a joke, but it gives SO MUCH real estate and flexibility. It had one of those pleather folio covers with it as a kickstand.
    The extras the shown product has aren't really worth an extra ~$600. The stand is the only notable feature since all of the "graphic work" elements were pretty much shot down by Maria along with other commenters. It's so gosh darn expensive... 4K/120 monitors with the same or better color accuracy (HDR 1000) run $600 on sale nowadays too.
    Point being, it's an awful value proposition on every front. Apart from being 4K, a used iPad / cheap drawing tablet does everything it does and more.

    While I'll agree with most comments in saying that something marketed towards artists and designers probably shouldn't be reviewed by someone who isn't either of those things. Commenters who also aren't digital artists are making the wrong comparison between a display like this and an Ipad. I would like you guys to point me to the nearest 17" or 20" ipad. Going from 11" to 17" is GIGANTIC. The real comparison for this product are other drawing tablets. A Wacom with similar functionality costs well over $2500. But compared to a Huion or XP pen display it's a bit closer but those other ones seemingly have a better pen than this display has

      I've tried running Onshape on Ipad and Android tablets before and it is really unproductive compared to the good old mouse and keyboard.

You'd still need to use a keyboard for them.

      Never used Autodesk and im not sure what level of precision you seek, but any Android tablet with SuperDisplay and some sort of decent pencil input would most likely do the trick.
      Samsung Galaxy Tabs are great because they use Wacom's EMR with the SPen and Superdisplay translates that imput really well, I can use the S9 Ultra for drawing and vfx work without any issues.
      I think you can do pretty much the same with an iPad onto an iMac, but the apple pencil is capacitive, like the one shown in the video, so you gotta charge these.
      And of course, any graphic display from wacom, xpen, huion, etc are great options for more serious professional work.

    Just a note you can literally just use an iPad Pro for an external touch screen MacBook Pro Display like wirelessly or wired I believe. Also like this thing with a pen is going to be the same price as an iPad Pro which seems a little crazy for a monitor. Even the smaller touch screen versions like the 13" and 15" or what ever they are like $500 still which seems really really high. But the non-touch screen one is like $219 so I guess that the touchscreen costs a lot to put in there lol. Also the Pro is like $799 or something insane and the pen is $90 as well as the screen protector is $60 for some reason.... It's really cool and nice for creative work but like a Wacom tablet or an iPad would prolly do the job better at similar prices and with more support for them later on.
