Drawing Tablet with Screen XPPen Artist 22R pro Computer Graphics Tablet 120% sRGB with Battery-Free Stylus Full-Laminated Technology, 21.5 inch Pen Display with 20 Shortcut Keys & 2 Red Dial(Black)

The media could not be loaded. This is a really good drawing tablet! You do have to have a computer in order to use! The pen is pressure sensitive and mimics what it feels like to use a real pen or pencil. The buttons on the pencil come in handy and it's also a battery free pencil which I have found to be one of my favorite features! Drawing is smooth with no lag. The screen is large so offers a good size work space. The buttons on the drawing tablet can be programmed to your specific desires! Great tablet for the price! Lightweight and easy to move around. Super functional! I highly recommend for any level of digital artist!

I bought this tablet because I can't afford the Wacom 24". Honestly I was expecting a lesser product and wasn't sure I'd keep it since I've never tried an XP-PEN tablet before.... but it is absolutely phenomenal and I am so glad I made this purchase. I also watched about 4 hours of YouTube reviews before I finally made the purchase, if you're curious about the research that went into this.Pros:- Love the express keys. This makes it a lot easier to just paint without technology getting in the way.- The wheels on both sides are SO USEFUL. I set the left wheel to change brush size and the right wheel to change the zoom. Having two wheels like this has changed my art life.- I don't have to use a keyboard!! With brush size and zoom on the wheels and save/undo/redo/hand tool for moving canvas/copy/paste/ctrl/alt etc set to express keys, I literally do not have to touch the keyboard during an art session.- It might not be 4K but 2K is honestly just fine and allows you to paint very clearly. If you do not normally work on a Retina or other 4K+ screen resolution, you probably won't notice much of a difference. I work on two 5K monitors for work during the day at my non-art job and moving to this for art doesn't bother me at all.- The colors are excellent! When I went to color adjust in Photoshop at the end of a piece, I....... didn't have to do anything. I usually have to adjust colors on a finished piece when drawing in SAI on Windows then moving back to MacOS, and in this case the colors were very well represented.- I use Parallels for Windows programs and I was able to get the tablet to work perfectly in Parallels. More details at the end of this review for any users who are on a Mac but use Parallels.- The extra pen included in the box is AWESOME. It also comes with a bunch of extra pen nibs.- The feel of the screen is pretty great. Some reviewers on YouTube wren't that happy with it but unless you're a professional artist who has been working with a Wacom display every day for years, you'll probably be fine.- They include a nice drawing glove that actually fits alright.- There is a pen holder that you can screw into the right side of the display and they even include a little screwdriver for it.- XP-PEN support is PHENOMENAL. I had a small thing to resolve with my order and they were able to resolve it quickly with no issues and went above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied. They were very courteous and kind. If you have to work with their support team for whatever reason, they'll take care of you! Be patient as their support hours may differ during covid times.- The pen experience is great. I've painted a few 10+ hour paintings now with this display and I've not had any issues. Apparently some Wacom 24" users were not as pleased with the pen experience but I wouldn't know, since I can't afford to drop a couple grand on a Wacom... lol. I think this pen does the job just fine. It's fairly light if that makes a difference to you, but I prefer that.Cons:- When I plug the display into my MacBook Pro, sometimes I have to unplug another monitor for it to register the display. Not a big deal and only really matters if you're using multiple monitors.- The screen has a bit of glare so you may need to close the blinds behind you when working or position the display appropriately.All in all, this is a phenomenal display--especially for the price. I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase and if they ever come out with a 4K version, you bet I'll buy XP-PEN again. You can check out some of the art quality I was able to achieve on Instagram: @microsoftoven. I'm a hobbyist when it comes to art, but this display made my workflow super smooth and I loved every second of it!Parallels pro tips:If you're like me and want to paint in SAI but have a Mac, Parallels is AWESOME for this. Here's how it works:- Run Parallels in windowed mode- Install the PenTablet drivers into Windows as well (the latest version worked for me)- Click the USB icon at the top of the Parallels window and make sure you connect the Artist24 Pro display via USB in this dropdown- Go to mouse preferences and enable short mouse trails (I have no idea why this works)- You might have to toggle Windows Ink on/off- If there is any difference in the pen tip location and the cursor, you can use the PenTablet driver calibration tool or adjust the X/Y values in the Work Area -> Tablet/Display options to match them up.With all of those above steps, I've been able to paint away in SAI with absolutely no problems. Full pressure sensitivity, all express keys and wheel functions.. the whole 9 yards.

I had a pretty hard time figuring this out at first. I'm pretty new to digital tablet art so I was taking it slow and reading the manual and I still couldn't figure out what to do.So I went to their website and under support I think it showed me how to connect to a USB on laptop or a computer. The hdmi cord goes from tablet to your monitor hdmi port.Then I finally saw my desktop on my new tablet and was amazed at what was happening finally.So in desktop I use pentablet tools mouse mode. Turn on a good art app like sketchbook or anything and then turn mouse mode off.The pen was jittery and crapoy and I was immediately not liking this tablet lol.I chatted with a support person. They said did I download the driver software for the pentablet and all that good stuff. I said yes but I wasn't sure which one to install so I have two different pen tablet folders in my Mavic mini. She was not happy about that haha. She's like, that's your problem. Trash or uninstall the one that says this (can't remember) it's one of the pen tablet folders. So I did now reboot computer a d tablet. I did. And guess what the pen works perfectly now. Use the hand glove it helps alot and your hand slides over glass better too.I'm stoked man. This tablet is amazing for a few hundred bucks. I paid more to get 3 years of insurance so hopefully don't have to use that.It's very well designed, made and very very good no lag in pen that I can see. You move the tip on the glass and the paint or pencil stroke keeps up with your moves pretty darn good.I still need to get used to drawing on yhis but it's awesome for traveling. Even has different plugs for different countries I think.The screen is fully laminated and so it works excellent without pen tip lag the colors are beautiful or ugly depending on how you mix the paints in your app, lol.Don't start a beginner on a crappy tablet, it's just totally hard to draw and will discourage them from doing digital art.Get one like this or this tablet. It's perfect for beginning artists because it works like a pencil or pastel or paintbrush to paper or canvas. My old tablet had the pen kag and redraw would take forever. It was a nightmare. So I never used it. This tablet will get used for sure, it's that good!!! Take care and keep making art live.....
