Tablet Replacement Options - Commission help?
3 years ago
General
Soooo I've been eyeing up a few tablets to make the replacement I mentioned I'm gonna need to make sooner or later because of these dysfunctional pens.
I've kinda narrowed down to 3 possible ones based on pricing to size/value. The current one I have is a Yiynova MVP20U so it's 19.5 inches and I'm using that as my baseline size. I'd rather not go smaller, but I really dont want a huge one either. something about 20inches is ideal.
Shopped around newegg and amazon for sale prices and this is what I've found.
This HUION might be the winner as it's the same size and at a good price.

I've also been eyeing up two others based on sale/coupon pricing.
A slightly bigger HUION with a good coupon, but I donno if the whole 2 extra inches is really worth it.

Lastly this XP-PEN is the first one that caught my eye:

I don't need the special or "pro" versions with all the buttons, I have a razor keypad for all my special functions.
So of these, anyone have suggestions as for which you think I should go for?
LIKEWISE, would anyone like to commission me to help fund the new tablet? I'd like to try and grab one these weekend to catch the sale pricing. I've just been waiting to see what the best prices I can possibly get this weekend, as it seems like the best time to snag a new one.
I say commission because I feel weird just asking for "donations" and want it to feel worth it to folks giving me money to help out.
Note me or contact me via telegram or discord if you'd like to work out a commission to put towards this thing.
Thankies!
PS : Also, post-surgery healing is still slowly going along well. Pain is pretty much gone and I'm able to sit well enough to do stuff. Still can't wait to be fully healed so I can actually sit normal.
PPS : Gonna seriously start posting in stuff again. Likely gonna go an upload dump tomorrow (since my aunt canceled holiday plans x..x) of some stuff and try to do one every Wednesday as a catch-up posing thing. I think scheduling it as a routine will help me get more regular with it.

XP-Pen is from Japan and they are their competitor. I almost bought an XP-Pen but i resorted to buying a Wacon Cintiq 22HD instead used.
XP-Pen has better reviews. Huion i didnt trust because they tend to use cheap
tech and copy Wacom.
That be my vote, XP-Pen. At least the quality would be a bit better.
for for the origins, interestingly. XP-Pen started in Japan from a Taiwanese manufacturing company, which eventually moved to China, with separate research and development office in California. Huion is seems to be purely a Chinese company.
I've generally gotten more recommendations for Xp Pen, and you'd be the first to tell me Huion had issues. So I'm taking that into consideration. Xp Pen seems to be more popular.
