XPPen Artist 16 2nd, Powered by X3 Smart Chip Technology, 15.4 Inch, 127% sRGB

At first I never trusted online shopping to buy something expensive like this but the seller is original. The product is good, the only issue that never included is the type c to type c cable. that's fine I never read the description except saw the product pic that comes with it. Overall is all good I will be posting another review on the xppen type c to type c cable. To see whether it works on smartphones.

Big, good and great first experience!

This was my first acquisition of a drawing tablet with screen, I used to draw in a very small screenless wacom tablet, and putting my hands in one of these for the first time is an amazing experience.I have made huge research and compared many tablets of multiple brands (Wacom, Huion and XP-PEN), and after thoroughly comparing all of them, I decided to buy this one. It didn't disappoint me in any aspect: Screen quality is great, color range is absurdly good, pen feeling is also very good (people say it's very light and sometimes slippery, but has a decent weight), it's very easy to use and easy to set up the shortcuts!The only thing that I had trouble with was making the connection with the computer, but it was completely my mistake of plugging the cable in the ... MoreThis was my first acquisition of a drawing tablet with screen, I used to draw in a very small screenless wacom tablet, and putting my hands in one of these for the first time is an amazing experience.I have made huge research and compared many tablets of multiple brands (Wacom, Huion and XP-PEN), and after thoroughly comparing all of them, I decided to buy this one.

I didn't test drawing with photoshop (cuz adobe is lame fr) but worked just fine with Clip Studio Paint. If you never had a screen tablet before, you won't miss anything, because this one provided me with all the necessary assets (it even comes with a drawing glove!)

Good For Beginner Or Casual Use

Purchased for my daughter who is in college. This allows her to do work for the graphics classes she takes. She's also used this to edit images and logos for a new client of hers. I mentioned that there were apparently some 'issues' that other reviewers mentioned, but she doesn't seem to have that problem, or they don't affect her like they do for other people. This area of the digital media world is not her focus, but it works great for her needs.

Great Inexpensive Tablet

I was using an old Wacom Intuos Medium before getting this one. I got this drawing tablet because the price looked really good and it seemed small enough for my needs. Also, I wanted to make sure I didn't pay too much out of pocket in case this tablet didn't go well for me and had to switch back.For the price I find you can't go wrong with this tablet, especially if you are looking into digital drawing as a hobby. It's very accurate and makes drawing digitally go by so much faster. Setup was also really easy to go through (outside of some minor confusion with splash screens on other monitors). This is a nice upgrade from my previous drawing tablet.Overall I'm very happy with my purchase and I'm glad I chose to upgrade when I did!

Great product!

This is my first drawing tablet with a screen to draw on, and it did not disappoint! I received the tablet a little over two months ago and have been using it consistently since then. Setup is super easy, although I did face some issues when downloading the pen driver. The screen is textured and feels great to draw on, and the pen pressure sensitivity is adjustable. Downsides are that the screen can be a little too bright and slightly saturates colors. Still, it's a great tablet for beginner artists to invest in.

Perfect price and delivery

I was surprised because the price was the lowest of all the offers. I was a bit hesitant because I wasn't sure if the company was reputable, especially since the name seemed a bit suspicious. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the incredibly fast delivery and the high-quality packaging - my daughter absolutely loved the item!

Second artist screen, best yet.

I’ve been using the original xp-pen artist 15.6 for over 4 years, and it’s been good. Parallax was an issue, but not a killjoy.Now this one (Gen 2) comes along and improves everything, except the pen holder (you don’t get one with the new version).So… Pros:1. Almost no parallax2. Super response time/lag time3. Buttons actually work for lefties with a little flip of the screen software.4. The UI is easy to understand, and works great.5. Power cables that come with it are robust and no connection issues6. It’s thinner and handles better in use.7. There’s a replaceable screen protector that draws like paper with the pen.8. Colors are pretty accurate (better than that last version) and brightness is solid9. The precision of the tip to screen after calibration, is ... MoreI’ve been using the original xp-pen artist 15.6 for over 4 years, and it’s been good.

Colors are pretty accurate (better than that last version) and brightness is solid9. The precision of the tip to screen after calibration, is excellent. Wacom is about equal here.Cons:1. It had no stand2. It has no pen holder/ nib container thing.3. If you use a Wacom you likely will need to remove any/all software-firmware-drivers etc. they takes a little time and searching.4. SOUND - if you use the supplied HDMI cord, your MAC (if that's your flavor) will default to piping the sound to the tablet... which has no speakers - lol. Go to > System prefs > Sound > Set to internal speakers. Done!Overall a very fluid and enjoyable experience, reminiscent of the original Wacom cintique, but with better form and buttons.

Very good stylus

I love being able to customize the pressure-sensitivity levels of my stylus to my exacting specifications. It allows me to create digital art that's uniquely me!The tilt sensitivity of the stylus pen means that shading and gradient work is no longer a hassle! The variation in depth and thickness feels incredibly natural.

Works with Apple M1 Macbook Air

I purchased this as a tablet to use with my Macbook M1 Air. It works great, with the USB-C to USB-C cord you can purchase as a additional accessory. If you're using the USB-C to USB-C, all you have to do is plug that one cord in and you're done. It powers and connects your screen. The pen came already calibrated to the screen and doesn't have any lag when drawing on it. It doesn't have any touch features, so you can rest your hand fully on the screen when drawing and not have to worry about accidently touching anything. It works with drawing apps from the app store or apps you can download. For the price and quality you're getting a pretty good deal on this device. Its a huge upgrade over the older modules of drawing tablets and fixes a lot of previous issues they had.

Xp-pen artist 16in (2nd gen)

The media could not be loaded.I am a professional artist, I draw book covers for a living, I brought the xp-pen artist 16 2nd generation to have a display drawing tablet that I can hold in my hands wile siting in bed drawing. And this tablet is excellent for that. I can use just a one c- usb cable that goes straight to my Mac book pro. This allows me not to have any cables in my way, while sitting in my bed drawing, making it very comfortable to use, the power come straight from my MacBook Pro and powers the tablet. The screen has excellent colors, and very easy to set up with clip studio, especially using Shortcut keys. The screen is laminated, so it allows you to make it feel like you are drawing directly onto paper, that is a nice feel.Are use a cintiq 24 HD ... MoreThe media could not be loaded.I am a professional artist, I draw book covers for a living, I brought the xp-pen artist 16 2nd generation to have a display drawing tablet that I can hold in my hands wile siting in bed drawing.

It’s a wonderful machine, but this new XP pen allows me to be portable.There’s only one feature that could be improved is the pen itself, it’s not like my cintiq it does not have a nice grip to it. It works though very well. But it needs to have a rubber grip and bigger buttons that allow you to have more control, but because I’m only using it to sketch and in mobile situation, it works great for me.I really recommend this, especially for the price point. I have used thousand dollar cintiq pro 16, and I think that it draws just as good, and has a screen that gives you vibrant colors for what you were looking for as a professional artist, or even a beginner. don’t get me wrong I still think the Wacom products are amazing.But for the price point of this, it works just as well and it gives you the same feeling of the cintiq pro 16 buy wacom and it’s lot lighter, and I love the short cut keys. Xp pen I give you
