Do you use screen-less tablet, ipad or drawing monitor?

For those that uses screen-less tablets, are you satisfied with it?

huion wh1409, its big but i love it, gives good precision without having to zoom in a lot and 12 keys to customise if you are into that. I'd recommend it to anyone. Before this i had a bamboo tablet which was good but i dont think i would ever be able to go back to a small one. It's a bit wierd to get used to it in the first day but gives much freedom and pushes you draw with the whole arm rather than just move your hand on a small surface.

Got an Ipad pro, cintiq 13hd, Intuos Pro Small & Medium.
Honestly, it doesnt really matter, I used to think I need a very specific setup to draw good, but now I think I just need to get my shit together and draw, everything is different, but all viable.
Currently using the Intuos Pro Med the most just because I like seeing things on my big 27 inches IPS. I do carry the iPad everywhere else but I sketch on smol notebooks instead.

I bought the most expensive option and even then it was pretty outdated. Screen got extremely hot after only an hour of use and a lot of the time it didn’t recognize a Wacom device even though it was one. You are better off buying an IPad for mobility. It’s a lot cheaper and the design is a lot nicer.

Have some of you have migrated from a bamboo to some new wacom model or from another brand? I have a Bamboo CTH-470, it is the Bamboo Pen & Touch Tablet, it works well but I have it for 7 years or more, has 1024 levels of pressure. I was thinking if its worth to update, now all the models of all companies have more levels than that for example, and a larger work space for the same price.

Anonymous Mon May 27 16:06:19 2019 No.3948304

I have a Wacom bamboo small. It functions perfectly, and I'm very used to using it, but it is pretty fucking small. I'm interested in upgrading, maybe to the new 16in cintiq or something, for something nice at home. If it's worth it. I would still use the small one for portability.
>>3948189
Interested in this question too. Honestly I doubt the difference between 1000 vs. 8000 levels of pressure matters...

Isn't it kinda pointless to post replies without samples of your work? I use an Inspiroy Q11K, it's pretty nice but the pen's recharge is wonky for me. It's slighlty better that inuos 3/4 that I used before and is certaingly MUCH better than cheaper huion tablets. My linework is pretty consistent with it, but I gotta switch the pressure curve for different brushes every now and then.
Now, for the question: I really want a mobile sketchpad of some sort to do plenair studies, I need great color accuracy and a bright screen for daytime painting, pen accuracy is not as important. Any recs?

Wacom Bamboo Screenless

Those with screens, XP-pen 12 and 9.7 inch Ipad

Ipad is cool once you get a screen protector. Apple pen ain't too bad I got everything on sale. Not sure procreate or csp are worth it as sketchbook is doing wonders for me right now

XP-pen 12 with CSP and krita, it's okay, I should have spent more money on a bigger screen. Gets hot after an hour but it's nothing I can't sit on my lap. Need to get a better desk to properly use these. Posture is so important.

Wacom Bamboo was okay, I hated the small surface area compared to the huge size of my screen, could never find a comfortable setup for it since it has to be flat. It's better for avoiding neck and wrist pain for sure but I need to look down at something to draw. Comes with great stylus and programs despite being pretty cheap when I got it like 80 bucks for it all.

I have collected a lot of tablets over the past few years since I graduated and found a job.
I've got a 12 inch iPad pro, Surface Pro 6, Wacom Cintiq 16, Cintiq 22hd, a Samsung Tablet with S Pen, and the Gaomon screened drawing tablet.

Despite having all of that I stick with an Intuos Pro Medium and i'm OK with it.

For years I stuck with an Intuos 4 Medium (pic related) and a shitty bulky Asus laptop. I grinded on that thing day-in-day-out.
Then I graduated and got a good paying IT job. I told myself I was going to upgrade my PC and get a big ass cintiq after I sell my Intuos 4 and retire my laptop.

Not a day has passed where I don't regret that. I really miss my old setup. It's what I was used to, it was what worked best for me, it was where I did some of my best work that I think back fondly on.
I really regret it, and cannot for the life of me get used to drawing on a screen no matter how long I force myself to do it. So i'm just trying to cope with this newer Intuos despite them being not as good imo.

I feel you. I got myself Intuos 5 medium in 2013, along with a license for Manga Studio 5 - I do my stuff with those two even though I promised myself I would switch to a drawing screen when my income got better and the price of available drawing screens has gone down gradually.

It's very comfortable to just plug the USB in the front panel of my computer, and then grab and lay the tablet on my desk. As opposed to whatever power ups and plugs you need with the pen screen. It's a simple procedure and I feel it is effective and part of my workflow.

I am going to upgrade my main monitor to support my digital art ambitions later this year.

I have an intuos4 and a Huion 191v2. The intuos is great and has lasted years. I couldn't get over the disconnected feeling though. That went away with the display tablet and I felt like my lines and general drawing ease has improved since. Being able to see my hand during drawing made a big difference.
I wouldn't recommend Huion though. The screen feels great to draw on but the display panel is not so good. Not nearly bright enough to get a neutral white. Screen is slightly blurry due to the gritty surface. Colors are contrast appear washed out as well.

24HD Cintiq. Best purchase I ever made, and I paid full list at $2500. It's massive, and heavy, but it's a game changer - use it almost daily, since 2014. I used a variety of smaller wacoms before I got it, and they're fine. If I were broke I'd rather have a cheap Chinese knock off than none at all.

I'll probably get an iPad Pro eventually, but I don't really need a mobile digital option, and a pad and pencil works fine away from work or my home studio.

>Do you use screen-less tablet, ipad or drawing monitor?
Screenless. Just a 3x4 inch little thing. It was an Intuos beforehand, but I lost the pen and my temporary tablet turned into my "fuck it, this is good enough."
>For those that uses screen-less tablets, are you satisfied with it?
There's a hard cap on how useful a larger screenless is, because the major flaw of screenless is that making nice, longer clean lines is a crap shoot of guesswork. Like a mouse, you course correct as you head in the vague direction, compared to the a to b, straight or curved precise as fuck traditional lines you can make. I like my freehand draftsmanship.

But at the same time I don't want to invest in a screen tablet without at least using one first. Worried it'll have split-second lag that'll make it intensely unsatisfying to draw on. Least with a screenless you can tape paper over it and get a nice texture to draw one. And just use the ruler tools or spam undo to get nice longer linework or paint strokes. Detailing and sketching is easy as fuck either way.

Pros and cons:
Tablet PC
+ All in one
+ Portability
+/- Glass screen for everything not Wacom
- if it breaks, press F to pay respects
- small working area
- one screen for everything / scratches / etc
- locked to specs

Separate tablet
+ Freedom in terms of PC specs
+ Can buy either a drawing tablet or one with a screen
+ If you buy one with a screen, you effectively gain an extra monitor
- need another PC that isn't a toaster
- limited portability
- for screen tablets not Wacom, screen calibration is a bitch
- extra desk space

If your friend travels alot, an all-in-one doesn't sound too bad as an option. I'd only recommend the Surface or the MobileStudioPro though. Anything less than 13" would be cramped.

Looks like the thread I was looking for. I need a new tablet, after my Huion H640P kicked the bucket for unknown reasons. Apparently that particular model has quality issues. Now, I'm between a Huion H1060P or a XP PEN Deco 03 (based on https://digitalarttabletguides.wordpress.com/ reviews I'm leaning more towards the Huion one, but I'd love /ic/'s input/experience). I'd preorder the XP PEN Pro but their online shop won't ship to my country, our Amazon doesn't list the thing and Amazon USA won't ship this particular product to my location. Sent XP PEN an email, hopefully I'll be able to purchase at a reasonable price. What do? I kind of need a tablet fast for I have to re-do some sketches of a paper I gotta hand in as soon as possible in order to get my fucking bachelor's degree.

I've got a Huion H950P. It feels great to use, It's fairly sturdy and doesn't move about when I'm using it, It has plenty of shortcut buttons and it was very cheap ($87AUD) when I got it. I would recommend it very much.

The only other tablet I had before was a really old Wacom Bamboo tablet from over 10 years ago I think and that was when I wasn't serious at all at getting better at art.

first started with a wacom intuos. Drawing surface area is ridiculously small. Wacom are way overpriced for screenless tablets too. Wouldn't recommend to even beginners.
Then moved on the huion wh1409. Surface area is big so you have an acceptable amout of freedom of movement.
Right now I'm using the cintiq 16. Drawing directly on screen is fucking great. It's way too difficult to do fast precise curves with a screenless tablet. Screenless tablets may be enough for painting (hand not covering the screen) but that's about it.

I feel like my shitty small intuos limits my gestures way too much, now that I'm out of /beg/ I wanna graduate to a bigger tablet but the bigger wacom models feel like a total ripoff (fucking 300+ bucks for an intuos pro m no thanks).

I have the large Intuos3 that I've had for years and it's been severely underutilized. About the 4:3 ratio - is there anything you need to do to make it work with a widescreen, 16:9 monitor?

Wouldn't drawings turn out scrunched due to the wider aspect ratio?

What the hell is the difference between a Huion and XP-Pen in terms of drawing screen tablets?
Say if I were to choose between a Huion Kamvas GT-221 Pro or the XP Pen Artist22E Pro, what is really the difference other than price? The Huion is more expensive at $599 and the XP Pen is $399. Both seem about the same, like, they're literally coming from the same shady factory, but just branded with different names. Is it very much a situation of "you get what you pay for" and that you really REALLY get quality for the price increase to buy a Cintiq 22HD (which I had my eyes on) or does it even really matter?

i think you should be able to just uncheck force proportions in pen mapping on the wacom preferences thing

and yes, your input will come out warped on the screen so you'll have to make up for that. if you traced a coin on your tablet it would come out as an oval if the aspect ratio isnt the same

Surface Pro 2017 owner here.
Since CSP wasn't built from the ground up for it, it has a lot of input issues from time to time. Cursor freeze, sometimes my strokes would show up off to the side of the screen, only has 8 GBs of Ram so lag and input inaccuracy gets noticeable once your canvas is big enough or you have multiple pages open. Battery pen has weight and gets uncomfortable to use after a while. Saving up for a custom PC and 20in+ screen tablet, 11 in active screen doesn't really give me the space to stretch my arms out.

Portability is a huge plus however, drawing at the mall or library is great. And you can make finished work with this thing, being able to work outside my house was always why I got a Surface before a PC.

After years of using an intuos pro and a cintiq 13hd I finally bought myself a larger cintiq. I found a place in the UK that bundles the ergo stand for free if you purchase the 24 Pro and it felt too good to pass up. I was never too impressed with the 13hd and usually leaned towards using my intuos but having the larger screen and 4k makes a huge difference. So glad I made the purchase.

Always used Wacom bamboo tablets, then moved to an intuos pro pen and touch which was my favorite, and recently got an XP Pen Artist 12 with the display.

There are so many cords to fiddle with, the colors are different, the tablet and screen have two different resolutions so one is always fucked up, my posture is shit using it, the thing gets hot as the sun after a bit of art and it hurts my eyes. Honestly I would go back to my Intuos in a heartbeat but I gave it to a close friend as a present.

I'd also like to know if the pro 12 is compatible with Krita 4.2. Krita says its compatible with all huion tablets, and huion says the pro 12 is compatible with "most software".

Oh, I forgot that, sorry.
This can be corrected depending on the application you use but I found most of them have line jitter. Obviously you can use stabalization and most of the programs I used supported it: Krita (terrible on windows but nice on linux), Clip Studio and Photoshop.
It's most noticable in things like Sketchbook Pro when you don't have the option to apply to each it stroke.

There's also the fact that in general, the two types of pens, N-Trig (Surface) and Wacom AES pens felt difficult to use, like they would glide. On the iPad while it did feel like there was no drag, it didn't seem to be an issue since iOS is a mobile platform.
Windows as an input device with a stylus on screen is very hit or miss.

On the bright side, I did try a Samsung Galaxybook 10.6 and it was nice, same Wacom EMR tech as my tablets but overall it was weak in specs and the updated model only came with 4GB of RAM. If the original goes down to about 800 for the 8GB model, I'd definitely buy it in an instance.

It does have less jitter and it's not bad exactly but I've noticed it enough since I do draw very slowly and it's a habit I need to break I know of.

I have the 16" i7 version. Just got it, but it works exactly how I wanted it to so far. It's a portable workstation more than anything, so as long as you plan to mostly use it on a desktop for long periods, it's really great. Runs photoshop and CSP very smoothly, only lags when using big brushes at huge resolutions, but it handles simple brushes on my 1GB comic PSD files nicely. It does get pretty hot, but it's not uncomfortably hot, so I use it in my lap all the time no problem. The screen is also very nice and just blows the iPad out of the water no contest. The newest Pro Pen and display feels so natural, and using the felt tips makes it feel like I'm drawing with a micron on paper. I have to use it more before I decide if I love it, but I'm finding it useful so far since I don't have to drag a cintiq+laptop plus wires around anymore to work outside my desk. The main drawbacks is windows 10, and that comes with the occasional glitch that requires a restart to bring it back to normal. Wacom updates also suck and it's annoying to ignore them. It's also very large for a tablet, but I bought it for that reason + maxed out specs. All in all, I look forward to creating on it and seeing how much I can do with it.

Also the new fancy ones have a better pressure control.

If a bamboo only has a tensometer that measures the stress of stiff compressed plastic the huions and intuoses have a springloaded tip that actually travels some distance and allows you to control it really well.

Not sure if this is the best place to ask, but have you guys ever used the Procreate app on a tablet with a stylus?

I’ve only been doing stuff on paper so far but I’ve always hated it just because the clutter of having filled up notebooks and having to arrange all my books and pencils and brushes. I’ve been wanting to make the switch to digital for a long time but I borrowed my brothers tablet for a few days and I hated the disconnect of having my hands and pen on the tablet instead of the screen where the image is being drawn.

My gf recently got an apple pen 2 for her iPad Pro and she wanted me to try Procreate and I fucking love it, the convenience of digital drawing without having to get used to drawing on a tablet but looking at the screen.

Anyone else try Procreate and any thoughts on it? You think it’s a good enough tool to make some good work? I was thinking of just picking up an older iPad mode and apple pen 1st generation, probably much cheaper than a tablet

Huion Q11K v2.
Pen buttons suck ass, can't use it for hand tool in Photoshop like with Jewcom.
Something feels wrong about its pen tip material. I'm not having trouble with friction being too high or too low, but I feel that I'm drawing with plastic on plastic. My old Bamboo was a bit too smooth but tactile feedback felt more natural.
Other than that it's perfect, it feels more responsive and accurate than my old wacomshit, it's fucken hueg allowing wider range of hand movement, tips don't grind into dust after a week of usage.
It has tilt support but I can't find any good use for this gimmick.

Tilt is awesome if you use it. Didn’t think it would make a difference but with the right brush set up, it works wonders. Takes forever to learn how to make brushes and use though. It opens up a whole axis of possibility that I’m still exploring but sometimes 2 brushes are better than one.

How bad is the disconnect from screenless tablets? Is it like drawing on the touchpad of a laptop with my finger? Because I don't really have any disconnect by using my finger or the mouse to draw while looking at my screen.
I'm trying to draw with my finger on the phone while looking at my PC and I think I'd be able to adapt if it's anything like it.

Mainly asking because screenlss tablets are stupidly cheap. The cheapest screen tablets I can find are the X-Pen Artist 12 and some Huion stuff and they are both around 9 times the price of a screenless Intuos.

lol if you draw with the touchpad and the mouse, the screenless tablet it will be a whole higher stratum for you.
The only problem is the first adapt of your brain to just look the screen while you are dmoving the hand and drawing separately, but it's just a matter of time, later is really easy.
Maybe if you used to draw a lot in analog media like paper, could be somekind hard for some, but according to what i've seen, it's not so much.
Just go ahead and try it, the cheap ones are fine. Just don't buy a really old model, Huion and xp-pen are really fine. Just consider... try to get one with passive stylus (no need to charge it) if you have the money, anyway those are cheap and the alternatives than wacom, like the xp-pen deco1, 2, or 3, actually i don't know what is the exact difference among those three, in addition to the design they seem super similar in specifications, only that some have more or fewer buttons

Intuos pro large, yeah it was expensive (a little over $500) but goddamn is it nice. My main qualm with Wacom is their driver updates and how they communicate with Windows. One day everything is functioning normally then an update comes out and suddenly every time I try to make a line in Photoshop it pans instead. There are always workarounds, but honestly I just stopped updating the drivers. Other than that it's a solid tablet, literally. No bending or flexing, it's completely solid. Initially I did have an issue with the nibs wearing out, but I changed the surface out for the "smooth" option and haven't had to change a nib since. As for the size, I'm really glad I got the large and not the medium, I feel like a medium would restrict my movements when gesture drawing; but again I'm a tall lanky boy (6'3" 155lbs) so I need the elbow room.

I currently still use a Bamboo Fun Pen and Touch like >>3965871 (though I'm afraid it's trying to fail on me now).

I also asked this in the art supply thread but since no one replied yet, anyone has any recommendations for screen tablets? I'm thinking of investing in one to see if it helps my lineart digitally since I'm never satisfied both with how it feels to do and how it comes out digitally compared to when I do it traditionally. Cintiq is far out my budget currently and I've been eyeing the Huion Kamvas series but any other tips or recommedations for one would be appreciated as well.

I agree that other tablets are catching up to Wacom and I think that's fucking awesome desu. It means Wacom will have to either make better products or lower their prices; but to call intuos pro tablets a scam is an exaggeration. If you're new to digital art, by all means pick up a budget tablet, but I have already tried a few and I, personally, much prefer the intuos pro large. I had to exercise some frugality in order to attain it, but by no means do I feel swindled as it does everything I want it to do and does it well (minus the aforementioned hiccups.) I really don't want to have to fucking charge my pen, I could call Huion tablets a scam but that would be me just being a spiteful cunt about not liking the way something is. Kinda like you bitching about intuos pros being expensive.

Welcome to drawing, friend. Just buy a stack of cheap printer paper and a clipboard. You can probably find a pack of 500 sheets for $2. At least that's what I would recommend. Starting out with such supplies should leave you feeling free to make mistakes and most likely won't leave you feeling pressured to do anything outside of your abilities. That being said, if you find yourself wanting to transition to digital I would echo many of the anons sentiments itt and recommend you pick up a budget Huion for $50. You can even find H610Pros on eBay for like $40. Good luck, Anon.

Pen and paper is cheaper but I just jumped into buying an iPad right away and it was reasonably worth it but I will warn you now, do not get caught up in the "I need to play with ten different settings for six hours to get it right". You're still learning to draw so just get the hard airbrush and set it to a small size, like 5 pixels and go nuts.
Also if you're (you should be) doing construction lines, add in a second layer, set the opacity of it to like 40% and make the construction lines on that so they're less visible and then on the other layer, draw in the lines properly. Undo function is great to use, when you get past the fundementals. Don't be the beginner who constantly undos things because it's not "perfect". It's not supposed to be, you're supposed to be practicing and make mistakes so you can tell what needs improving

Have a good old Wacom Intous 5. Been using it for years. Was curious about screen tablets for a while and tried a 22" Wacom Cintiq in store, was kinda nice, but couldn't justify using that much cash on a hobby-gadget. Have tried some cheaper screen tablets, but found them rather awkward. Either the screen's too small, the parallax bothersome or annoying lag. The old Intuos is just so nice and sensitive, zero lag in the strokes and great pressure sensitivity. I'm so used to it that the hand/eye coordination thing is a non-issue for me at this point. It's pretty comfy. The only downside is the drivers acting up now and then.

Scam just doesn't mean what you think it means.

However wacom are BONED.
They have been a premium luxury brand for decades having a patent stranglehold on the entire field of digital art and photo editing.

They established their company around high profit margins, their economy, expnses and wages depend on selling the Intuoses for 350$ and Cintiques for 3500$.

But whoopsie all of thir patents expired now and now a company with lower expectations and smaller buckets of cocaine realeased this for 60$.
ITS 83% CHEAPER AND HAS EVERYTHING.
>passive pen
>Tilt
>Touch ring
>Papery surface that doesn't wear out.
>Nibs that don't wear out in a day.

Wacom just can't adapt to this shit, and they have nothing to compete.
The Huion and Xp-Pen still don't have one last feature which is the pen rotation, but they soon will and then Wacom has absolutely no edge over them.

I used an old Huion with batteries and I loved it.
Such a deal for 60$ and the pen lasts for a month on a short charge.

But they stepped it up a ton.
No batteries and tilt support on all devices from 60$ "cheap" tablets that rival Intous pro M to 170$ behemoths that dwarf Intuos pro Large.
Right now they have it all.

I guess they lack the balls to overstep 1000$ price range with their displays but i would fucking love to pay 1500$ for a 27" 4k panel with 100% AdoveRGB

I think this is the right thread.

Hi, my birthday is soon and I'm thinking of getting either 1 of these:
Wacom Cintiq 16 (~$600) or a Huion GT-220 (~$400). My issue is that I can't seem to pick what size I want for a screen. 15.6 is the Wacom which I think MIGHT be good? But might be too small for me. But I also feel like the Huion screen (21.5 inch) would be nice but too big for me. I'm honestly torn and I can't pick one. There's also the issue where Huion might be dodgy.

For reference I work on pic related with a 24inch monitor was my screen. Issue is that this thing is too small and I've had for ~5 years.

Afaik cintiq 16 isn't really worth the price.
No tilt and even the colors aren't good.
Wacom just suck giant balls at budget segment.

Take a look at Kamvas Pro 20.
>No battery
>Tilt support
>Decent panel
>Same 600$ as wacom 16

I think it's the best option unles you'd spend 800 on Kamvas pro 22.

There also is Xp-Pen artist 16 pro with tilt support and it's great except the stand is shit. The 22" model doesn't have the tilt yet.

Like >>3969192 said, xppen tablets usually are rigged with USB type C connectors which are sturdier than their micro predecessors. Their build quality has been getting even sturdier from my experience, the only current con that bugs me is the 15.6 isn't mountable, but that's a first world problem.
The artist 13 still exists but its an older model so it doesn't have the newer pen or pen tilt. The 15.6 pro has pen tilt and nearly no paralax, the review I saw that directly compared it to wacoms Cintiq 16 basically showed there aren't many differences between them besides the paralax and the price. The 12 has a smaller paralax than most other screentablets and pen tilt but like you said it is a bit small.

I haven't messed too much with Huion because most reviews talk about how the drivers can be problematic.

my question is if the huion H1060p has a old version, because in my country a lot of people sell it in some places, but in some they put 8192 levels, in others they put like 3900 aprox. with a grong number like 3.8192 so i guess they write it wrong, it only exist one model of the H1060p?

I think that between the h1060p and the deco 03, the h1060p could be the winner in the drawings aspects right? because they are the same in specs except for the tilt that the huion has and the deco don't. The others things are just somekind of cosmetic and for comfort, like the wireless option and the wheel of the Deco 03, but in that sense it could serve more the huion that has more buttons, and the wireless thing is not so decisive in reality.

More of a monitor question should I trash my 2 1080p monitors (one is portrait mode to my right and the bigger one is landscape straight ahead of me) and get 1 like 27"-30" 4k screen?

A good big monitor sure is a pleasant tool.
Having good accurate colors is a must, all of the works I made on a shitty TN monitor have fucked colors.

High resolution and size won't make your works better but they surely will make it comfy and pleasant.

>Should I trash?
Why?
There can never bee too much space,
You could use them for references or imagine you're live steaming and keep discord or the chat on the side.

I have this one and it's a WONDERFUL buy for 500$.

Thanks for the help, though i decided to get a the Huion Kamvas 13 in the end after looking between a few more reviews and the size. I haven't had it for long but everything seems fine so far (I never knew how much I needed more than 2000 lvs of pressure sensitivity), though I will be definitely keeping what was said about the XP-pen for future reference.

I have the Apple Pencil 2.

Honestly, it’s great. My biggest problem with the old surface pro 4 was the jitter and the parallax. I think they might’ve improved it on the newer surface models idk. I can deal with the jitter (photoshop, csp have line smoother) but the parallax was bad. It’s funny because it wasn’t that noticeable before I got the iPad.

But jumping straight into the iPad Pro is like night and day. It’s faster and like I said more accurate. Literally zero lag. It marks where it should be. It doesn’t feel like I’m drawing on glass.

Been using the Huion 1060 plus.

It performs fine but I just CANT get used to screenless tablets (had a bamboo then Pen&touch before this).

No.

Except perhaps children and midgets, they could enjoy the small one perhaps.

I hate these chinks for delaying this tablet launch and not having an official sales channel to my shithole country. Bought a Huion H1060P in the meantime because needed a tablet asap. I'll wait for reviews, if the Deco Pro turns to be a flop (delays usually meant unresolved issues/quality control issues) then I dodged a bullet. If it's everything it promises, guess I can resell my tablet and buy XP PEN's.
also no reason to get a small sized tablet unless you are really really limited by budget, in which case wait and save up.

yes but careful, depends of how many do you have, of money input, if you can't be able of buy another device in some years, and this is a long invest, is better acumulate some money to get some of more quality, than secures you to stay longer with you.
you can get a cheap tablet with stylus to get used to the medium, like the old samsung galaxy notes tablets, that still work really fine with the android programs to the date. Or you can get those notebook kind of tablet pc as you said, like the hp ones.

Going by comments here and elsewhere, the Chinese knock offs have improved (some of them) to the point they're fine to buy and use. My worry is the cheaper price means cheaper materials and cut corners, that will have an impact down the road. I know from years of owning wacoms, they last forever, so the cost is all front loaded - pay extra now, but the odds are pretty good it'll still work in 10 years. I have a "backup" Bamboo in my laptop bag that I used daily at my job for years, I bought it so long ago I don't remember exactly when, and it still works perfectly, pen included.

Maybe the Chinese tablets are that good, but they haven't been around long enough to know. And, If I were a broke college student, that's what I'd buy. Wacoms are for when you can afford it.

Xp-Pen is a Japanese company that sells solid bricks of quality with a usb-c port that will outlive you.
Windows drivers are great, linux drivers exist, also supports Digimend.

Unlike Wacom they don't use a special wearing out coating that burns through the nibs like a machine gun and then wears itself out UNEVENLY.

That's just scummy bullshit and planned obsolescence right there.

Sa for the price and economics i explained it above >>3969106
Tldr Wacom are established around exorbitant prices and are desperate enough to implement aforementioned materials into their top products.

Honestly they are against the wall, they can chose to cut their workforce in three and try to adapt to the new 100$ price point or just go bankrupt.
