This is a thread to discuss all kinds of digital drawing hardware: non-display graphics tablets, pen display tablets, portable tablets and more.

>What should I buy?
State your:
>Budget
>Location
>Type (display? non-display? portable?)
>Size (in inches)
>Other information
>Previous equipment

If you have any additional questions, ask them.

>Recommended tablets:

Intuos Pro 2013 - Great value, and the nibs won't wear out in 5 seconds like they do on the newer model.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite - Budget portable display tablet. Very solid drawing experience with Wacom EMR tech.
Used iPad Pro 2nd Gen 12.9" - Best option for a display tablet.
Used Cintiq 22HD - The only worthwhile large display tablet
Wait for the Galaxy Tab S7+

>Avoid:

Cintiq Pro - Terrible value. The drawing experience might be good, but you're paying way too much for an unreliable product. Dead pixels are frequent, as are black screens of death.
Microsoft Surface Pro - The N-Trig digitizer means you will always get wobbly lines.
Huion, XP-Pen, Gaomon and every other Chinese brand - Poor build quality, lackluster pens, bad tilt, horrible customer support and the displays are not calibrated. All Chinese brands are basically the same because they're all centralized. Also watch out, Chinese Companies are known to shill aggressively, even on 4chan.
Lenovo - Bad drawing performance.

>What should I buy?
I got you covered senpai. Here is a sufficiently short (but spanning 2 posts out of necessity) breakdown of what you should buy or avoid. Feel free to ask further questions, but try to avoid the schizo OP.

>Drawing screen for desktop
Wacom devices simply rule as far as drawing goes. They are not just nominally the best from a technological standpoint, they simply "feel" the best. However, they do skimp out on screen quality unless you buy the really expensive options. Definitely don't buy a Wacom One. Ideally you want something with at least 100% sRGB coverage. More accuracy can be nice for certain uses, but is optional.
XP Pen is the most solid contender to Wacom and is fine as a budget alternative, but again, look at the screen quality and see how well the pen works and contemplate if you are fine with what you are buying.

>Screenless tablets
Screenless tablets may appear less intuitive than drawing screens, but they help with ergonomics as you do not need to bend over. As they contain the same pen technology as their visual counterparts, it's very much a flavor thing. But the Intuos / XP-Pen Deco lines are much cheaper than drawing screens, and of course a lot more robust.
Keep in mind, however, that the rough surface on newer Intuos models produce very strong nib wear. This is supposed to make them feel like paper, but many people dislike it. You can buy a smooth Intuos Pro sheet from Wacom for $30.

>Standalone Mobile Devices
The iPad Pro models (including iPad mini 2019) and, to a slightly lesser extent, the Galaxy S7/S7+ are the go-to tablets. Outside of simple drawings, however, these are very limited in their capabilities and doing any task is generally way more tedious.

>> No.4952897

>>4952896
The 16:10 aspect ratio on the Galaxy Tabs also works against them, as especially the larger S7+ is not comfortable to hold in your hands. They are, however, all way too small to be considered proper drawing screens. 16 inch is usually the threshold for people.
Connecting tablets as a drawing screen through Windows Ink is also not very intuitive. For the iPad Pros, you are SOL as the one "decent" solution, Duet Display, not only charges a yearly fee, but will actually mess up graphics drivers on your PC. Absolutely do not recommend. For Android we have at least Super Display, which charges you once, but that one also won't work nearly as well as a dedicated drawing screen.

>Mobile Computing
Do avoid Windows convertibles / tablets at all cost. You can find a proper explanation as to why here:
>>4952481
>>4952518
As is explained in the linked posts above (which you can find later in the archive on warosu.org/ic), a proper (not thin) laptop + an Intuos / Intuos style screenless tablet are the way to go if you want to work with the same device in different places.

>In Summary
>What To Buy
Wacom Cintiq / Cintiq Pro line
XP-Pen Artist line
Wacom Intuos Pro line
XP-Pen Deco line
Proper Notebook together with a Screenless Tablet
(iPad Pro / mini 2019)
(Galaxy Tab S7/S7+)
((EMR-based Windows hybrids, DON'T BUY THEM, THIS IS JUST A HINT IF YOU WANT TO BE STUPID AND IGNORE MY WARNING!))

>What To Avoid
>Alternative screens besides XP-Pen (at least be careful and do your research)
>AES and (especially) N-Trig based pens
>Any "desktop" style mobile devices, really (Windows tablets, Chromebook, etc.) unless they are solid laptops
>Capacitive screens (shouldn't really be necessary to mention)

If the particular issue of inconsistent pressure appears, turn off Windows Ink in PenTablet. As I wrote, XP Pen are not perfect, but they are the best budget alternative to Wacoms. Screeching about "Chinese tablets! Chinese tablets!" just because I included XP Pen as a low budget option in the list is clearly schizo behavior, and it amazes me how consistently you keep up these threads with the same broken message.

The webm completed its task, then. Naturally there are many, many faulty chink tablets. Youll find their forums swimming with posts complaining about issues. The only thing is, Youll find the EXACT same thing on wacom forums. Youll soon realize that yes, you just find shitty units. If you order with amazon, you have an entire month to return it. Just order one and try it out for yourself and if you dont like it, send it back and buy something else.

Just to add, try a bit of critical thinking. Huion/XPEN/whatever the fuck couldnt have gotten where they are if their products were THAT shit. Its isnt some huge fucking conspiracy. The products just work, for a far, far lower price than wacoms. If your peace of mind cant handle it, go for a wacom one. Just know that you'd objectively be irrational for doing so today. 10 years ago you would definitely be correct in focusing on wacom.

>> No.4953336

alright, tell me the downside of getting a used tablet. I see the "Wacom Intuos 3 PTZ-930 9 x 12" on ebay for $40. I don't see how I can expect the same quality from a used $40 tablet compared to getting something new and expensive. I get that old stuff is supposed to be higher quality but if getting it is a compromise then i'd rather just get something more expensive.
also, the one I found on ebay doesn't come with a pen. are the new wacom pens backwards compatible or would I need to find an old one?

>> No.4953363

>>4953336
You need to get one with a stylus, mate. Stylii aren't backwards compatible like that. Every generation is separate.

It's cheaper also because you're looking at a 9x12. That's the sensor size, the physical dimensions are larger. Most people have problems with having a tablet that size on their lap/desk. The most common size is the 6x8. It's about the size of a laptop so it's easy to throw in a backpack and go.

>> No.4953367

I'd make sure it has a pen to be on the safe side.

People are suggesting it on the basis that you don't have a high budget. Of course if you have more money, you should be considering an Intuos Pro M or an S6 Lite.

The Wacom EK remote isn't reliable.

Compared to the tabmate the EK remote isn't ergonomic to hold and if the dongle is lost you will have to buy an entirely new remote. The touch ring is glitchy as well.

It's overpriced junk really and if you want to use the tabmate with other software you can use it with JoytoKey.

Non-pro Wacom is ok, at the very least it's better than Chinese tablets. Also the older non pros like the Intuos 3 and 22hd are great.

Thats a total lie. There are a lot of wacom styluses that work with at least a few different generations or models of tablets each. Very few only work with one tablet. I can use my intuos 4 stylus on my intuos pro 5 and vice versa.

I got a pretty good deal on mine. It's all a matter of patience and scavenging eBay efficiently.

Ebay sellers have to specify scratches in the description or you're eligible for a return. ipads don't scratch that easily though because they're smooth glass, rather than something like etched.

I like the second gen model because it retains the large bezels, which gives a bit more room for holding the tablet than the 3rd gen model. I wouldn't worry too much about eBay safety either, because the return policies always work. Just make sure the seller has 99%+ feedback.

So when you see a video of a chink tablet working just fine and being endorsed by the user, you HAVE to say its paid promotion, you have to, no matter what. Youd have said it if it was Aaron Rutten doing it as well, you have no choice. Unluckily for you it was Dave Fucking Greco doing it, an industry famous concept artist whose worked for EA to Blizzard, so when you say he's lying (because you have to) that just makes you that much more retarded in the eyes of everyone.

The main issue with the current Intuos pros are the nibs wearing out quickly if you press too hard. This can be easily fixed by sticking a smoother surface on the drawing area or not pressing down as hard.

You have buyers remorse because you didn't do your own research and got scared by an offboard american shill who's only interested in wasting your money rather than making your purchase worth it.

That aside, the Intuous should be fine if it's the older model. The newer ones are designed to bleed your wallet to replace the proprietary nibs or the cable.
If you got it through Amazon, try it and return it if you feel like you spent too much. Like >>4955033 Said, XP is having a sale so you might be able to stay under budget if so.

except no, its the opposite. Im trying to advise you to buy a far cheaper tablet, because wacoms patents expired and you can get great tablets for fuck all money because their monopoly is falling apart. Wacom used to be the only reliable option for tablets for a long, long time. They could therefore price accordingly. But now you have all the other options. Deco pro is on sale now, pick one up from amazon to try out. Or even cheaper/smoother surface, an H610 V2 for 60. I linked you the review vid with Dave Greco earlier. Thats as honest as you can get.

XPs 15.6Pro. Not the Innovator 16, the reviews have been unanimous that it's screen is strangely dark.
Pro has a decent working space, decent screen, decent pen, minimal parallax, Hotkeys you can turn off if they're not for you, solid drivers and it's technically only $75 more than the Intuos.
I say 15.6 because smaller is going to feel more cramped and probably fuck with your posture, but the Pro 13/12 displays from them are basically the same just smaller.

Avoid Wacom One as the small size and technical issues aren't worth the price tag. The smallest display you can get from Wacom that's reliable is the Cintiq16 which starts at 650 after the One which goes for 400 normally.
XP's cheapest current tablet is the 12" at 250 and easily returnable if you buy through Amazon.

Just think about what kind of headaches you're willing to deal with. Are you willing to have some paralax in exchange for a lower price tag? Do you have an interest in using hotkeys, are you okay with buying new nibs regularly, or replacing screen protectors?
Wacom is a good company thats unfortunately seeing quality issues that are letting the competition catch up performance wise. This is a time where some tablets are so close it acceptable working quality that it's hard to distinguish what makes it better than the next.

I have the 15.6 pro as well (was recommended it in one of these threads before the schizo appeared) and its been treating me very well so far. I had a little issue with tilt getting bugged out but it was easily fixed by tuning the stylus. Ive had mine for a year now and its still going strong. Constrast ratio sucks a little and you should use a colorometer on it if possible to get it calibrated right, but those are my only complaints so far.

The One By Wacom is absolute dogshit tier, even the pen is worse than the chinese offers. It uses the bamboo pen rather than the intuos pen.

It really depends on what you want to do, personally I love pencils, so I want a nice fast pencil, but then I also want to shade, so tilt comes into play there.

if you know what you are doing, tilt is powerful, and if you want to mimic certain brushes or brush techniques without pulling your fucking hair out aligning the fucking brush tilt manually, rotation is a godsend, by no means is it needed or even very useful, but if you want it, you feel the void of not having it instantly.

This is an opinion only.

Wacom is the least bang for buck, but when drawing for 6-8 hrs, anything that makes life easier starts to become more enticing.

Other tablets are good value but don't expect perfection when you aren't willing to pay the price and are still definitely worth buying.

XP-Pen > Huion. It's a personal thing.

I don't use tilt (much) and prefer keyboard shortcuts for brush rotation than turning the barrel.

Issues are always a thing, I remember having to open a few intuos 2 / intuos 3s in the past and having to adjust the tuning screws etc, having problems with wacom drivers or needing to restart the computer at times after connecting an Intuos 4.

Windows convertibles has a specific place but laptop + tablet combo is the best. (I still use my convertible)

Galaxy vs Apple, no real winner here, it's your preference of application ecosystem though finding nibs for the Galaxy should be considered.

New intuos pro line has a paper texture that coupled with the newly released soft nibs results you in burning through them in only weeks, even with a soft touch. They sell you a solution to this problem for an extra 50 dollars which you have to apply yourself.

To solve this problem I just bought an older gen pen. It really was astonishing to me how fucking fast those nibs wear out.

Well, I do feel like that image is over exaggerated on the Intuos 3 part, but I have only experienced Intuos 4 pens, curious to know what kind of nib material that is though.

Those new pro pens also have a lot of other issues. They're definitely a downgrade from the older more robust ones if you ask me.

that very much depends on your setup and its ergonomics imo.
but it's easier to get issues with a display tablet i think. only because the tablet + monitor combo is hard to beat in terms of ergonomics. being able to stare straight ahead is always better.

but that doesn't mean a cintiq will always fuck you up. yoshikazu, a mangaka, draws his manga on a cintiq and he probably works longer than most people on this board. but he also has a setup like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dYb-sG3y0U&list=PLPXUtUjog4s2jbhJnKhISHufJPcN40gsJ&index=20

Of course there's some calibration issues where the cursor doesn't match the tip, but ibispaint and artflow offers tip calibration in their settings

I think he was just pointing out that The Kanvas is 140% sRGB but you said RGB. I think the argument started because you have the terms switched.

If you are working digitally and only display digitally, most monitors hover at 100% sRGB and even browsers cap it at that (and certain file formats). So for others who are looking at display tablets, 100% sRGB is the minimum bar you should be aiming for in specs.

RGB covers more range which is useful to match your monitor to print colors though most printers will ask you to convert your files to cmyk and do a gamut pass anyway so judging monitors with this spec is usually reserved for photographers.

Well if its RGB it means the full spectrum, you can't have 140% of more than the entirety so when you say 140% RGB people assume adobe.

sRGB is not a standard virtual everywhere. That is why printers often ask for your color profile along with your files

Without more info its a bit hard to say. Keep in mind that a non display can produce identical results, the only difference is ergonomics. Display tablets have more that can go wrong, require more upkeep and take up loads of room. However on the plus side, you get the "natural" feel of drawing directly on your canvas, and you get an additional display. If you're tight for money I wouldnt recommend it, but if you have the funds and just want to try one out for yourself then go for it. Thats what I did.

Any kind of movement/zooming in gesture done quickly brings me back to the same spot I was working on, but it's driving me up the fucking wall. Happens in landscape and portrait, glove and no glove, palm rejection or not.
Anyone else get this? I'm about to try artflow and if it happens there I'm legit thinking about returning the tablet

Not that anon who posted, but another one who started transitioning from traditional to digital recently. Legitimately good advice. I can actually draw straight lines now (most of the time!) The eye-hand coordination stuff is really the toughest part.. It was discouraging at first but feels real good to be actually improving. I still am not consistent with circles and ellipses though

Marc Brunet, a professional artist formerly worked at Blizzard, actually has pretty good things to say about XP Pen. He didn't review the one you have but the artist 24 pro and the innovator 16. He says you're not going to get quite wacom quality, but it's still pretty darn good.

Oh no but havent you heard anon? Marc Brunet is secretly a desperate career tablet reviewer who took a bribe from xp pen to lie to his viewerbase! He's shilling!

/beg/ here. is it just me still being new to a screenless tablet or is it just tough to draw from the shoulder on one?

Except he could have stop using a sponsored product at any time and continues to use his 24pro equally along with his Wacom.

depends, have you drawn from the shoulder before or did you start doing it after you picked up the tablet?

I have no idea if I want the 12.9" or the 11" ipad
I tried both and am leaning towards the smaller one as an actual tablet but the larger one has more drawing space but is awkward as fuck to use on a bus or something to reado n my way to work

if you like the 11" then get it, why do you have to ask someone else about your own preferences? grow a brain

Just turn gesture controls off in the setting.
Better yet, try every software instead of just two, especially Infinite Painter, Autodesk Sketchbook and CSP.

The only reason any of these artists bother wasting time reviewing tablets is if there's commercial incentive to, chink moron.

hmm... i took a week break and come back drawing.
And suddenly my XP Pen artist 12 pro is not working anymore?
It was a 1 month old new tablet.
WTF?

The screen is showing, but there's usb not recognize error and the button is not working & not detecting the pen.

I do on paper, but not amazingly. So it sounds like it's possible, just keep working at it? It is real easy to just zoom in and out and draw from the elbow and wrist, but that's been a bad habit I've been trying to break in traditional

>> No.4961650

I'm the first one you responded to. I'm a wacom owner. But the reasonable conclusion is obvious if you look at Marc's videos and try it yourself. These are perfectly serviceable display tablets for art students.
