CALLING ALL DIGITAL ARTISTS!
7 years ago
As anyone that visited my stream yesterday will know, i had some major issues with BOTH of my wacom tablets.
I want to start edging away from wacom completely i think.
I wanna know what you guys use, i need a screen tablet, i cannot deal with a normal one as i have no developed hand eye co-ordination for it and yeah i just dont want one of those.
So my main thoughts are, pros and cons of other tablets and your personal favorites.
Thanks so much!

Hope you'll find the best option for yourself ;)
Cons it needs to warm up about 5 mins if its cold outside.
Pros is super smooth. No glare and I have a light right over me + a huge window and my fan lights are always on.
Adjustable stand.
Fav things about it the switch button from scroll zoom to pin size.
4 Custom Button's.
Never gets hot.
Pin nibs last me forever and I draw 8+ hours a day.
Pin holder holds extra nibs.
Works with sai open canvas clip studio Photoshop Da Muro have yet to find a program it doesn't work with.
There are some drawbacks, such as drivers/calibration can be a pain (which took me awhile to sort) but once that's done it's generally lush to work with after that. However; you will need to fiddle around if you have SAI Version 1 as you gotta change some settings but there's videos to explain to do that, otherwise Photoshop or ClipStudio/SAI 2 don't have problems with.
Otherwise have a look at some Huion reviews and it should sell you; it did for me!

OH I know one problem I have had, if you have separate monitor screens open it will not work. Just have it set up like you normally would and it shall work ^^.
(Also prices have just went down !!!)

But the tablet is amazing. I wanted someting for working from the couch. It has the ideal size for it with a laptop c:

400 bucks are much but I think it is the best alternative to a cintiq at the moment. Pen doesnt need charging which is great.
