Honestly, the tablet itself isn’t great. But, I didn’t expect much because of the price point so I wasn’t disappointed. I did have a complete failure after only about 3 months. The device stopped charging. Simbans support has been very helpful troubleshooting and eventually replacing the unit all together. Generally, you get what you pay for. However, Simban’s support exceeded expectations by their responsiveness and willingness to resolve the problem despite the cost.

Got this for my husband. He wanted to try digital art without spending hundreds on an art tablet. Battery last a decent amount (at LEAST 6 hours of drawing, he never draws for longer then that at a time). Really easy to use and navigate.

It is great. It is easy to use and useful for other many functions. Didn't buy it for this reason, but it was a life saver when my phone broke and was waiting for a replacement.

March 22, 2025 UPDATE: haven't turned this on since i first bought it a few months ago and decided to use it today. Charged it all day and it won't turn on. I've maybe used it 3 times total and haven't owned it even a year yet it won't turn on at all.I'm really happy that I finally got a drawing tablet that was affordable for me. That said, I got what I paid for.The added accessories are great, the ease of use is helpful, and the pre-installed drawing apps with upgrade to pro are wonderful benefits of this tablet.The palm rejection would be better named as "palm resistant". The tablet does respond to my gloved-hand, but not constantly. It will draw in the apps or sometimes minimize it, but not so much that I can't tolerate it.I think the biggest down side is the tip of the stylus. It is very difficult to give an honest opinion of the drawing tablet's performance when the stylus tip is blunt and also loosely attached. The tablet tip is also hard, like the tip of a ballpoint pen; but the size of a flat tipped pencil which really gets in the way of the ability to draw fine lines. All of these factors add to the inauthentic feel and performance.. the stylus responds slowly and it does not draw precisely. I will try to draw a line and when I stop in the middle of the line and try to continue the same line, the stylus will not draw where I left off no matter how many times I try. More often than not, the drawing tools in the apps are too big, even when reduced to the smallest point size. That could be a result of the stylus or the tablet, I just can't say for sure because the stylus is designed poorly.I feel like I've wasted the small amount of money this tablet costed because either the tablet or the stylus or both can only create very simple and obtuse artwork. If you're an artist who doesn't really draw a lot of fine line and detail, it might be perfect for you. If you're a young artist just starting out, this might be just what you need, but if you're decades into drawing little details and you're looking to finally fulfill your dream of having a drawing tablet maybe find a sugar daddy who will buy one that you yourself could never afford.I DO believe I would give this tablet a second chance if the stylus was redesigned. My last 5 phones have all been equipped with a stylus that has a very fine point and a rubber tip with supplied replacement tips for when they get too dull.. my phone does a better job than this tablet (I used PenUP on my phone and I did install it on this tablet to determine if I just needed the right software, but the tablet still does just as poorly as with the pre-installed apps as PenUP and my phone far exceeds in quality and performance) but I really wanted something larger that required less zooming and panning to fill in details as well as better palm interference (my hand is the size of my phone so it's not the phone's fault!).

The tablet itself works great, however it's not compatible with ClipStudioPaint or many of the better drawing programs. Out of the default programs on it Infinite Painter is my go to. Even that has its issues though. There is no good blending tool or brush on it. They all either blur the heck out of the colors or just push them around, making it impossible to get a nice smooth transition.Aside from that, if you want a pretty case for the tablet you won't find one easily. You need to search specifically for cases compatible with the brand. There is one shop on Amazon that has some and your design choices are very limited.Overall it's a good tablet but compatability is limited. Depending on your coloring style you may want to go with a tablet compatible with your favorite drawing program.

I love everything about it so far. I didn't realize that it essentially is like an android phone (with the app layout etc). This made the transition super smooth. Everything was very easy to find and navigate. It booted up very quickly. Screen protector already installed. There is a pretty little case that comes with it. There was a AAAA (heck I never knew there was such a thing) battery already in the pen with an extra one. Not sure how long the battery life lasts but I will update as I'll be using it a lot. Will see how long the tablet batter lasts after constant usage. I believe it turns off after a few minutes of no usage. I'm sure that can be adjusted. I only purchased it for the drawing. I will upgrade the sketchbook software that was installed but will also add ArtRage.Pros* It comes with a charger (US as well as UK/Europe included) with usb cord (to use in outlet or charge by computer).* If I wanted to, there is a HDMI port to connect to a computer or tv* You can add additional memory.*Pen sensitivityCons/Other Thoughts* Technically I don't have any or have not found anything yet. It doesn't seem to get too hot when on for a very long time.*This is my first tablet so I can't say if it is heavy? I have arthritis and carpal tunnel so I wouldn't be the best judge of it anyway. But it doesn't seem too bulky or ridiculous.*Compared to a wacom pen, the included pen certainly has some weight to it. I do not believe it is plastic, it is perhaps metal or something similar (from unscrewing the cap) when taking a look at the battery.*The pen is not thick in width but it's not super skinny either. I honestly do not know what to compare it too. Umm.....If you need specifics feel free to ask and I'll try and get more information. It seems larger (in width) than a regular pen or pencil (is round/no edges). So maybe the size of a normal pen + maybe another 15%? Again I may just be way off but the weight and size does not mess with it's balance or my accuracy drawing. ***edit I don't know what I was thinking. It is the same size as a default wacom pen. Sorry. :D*The tip/nib seems similar to the default one that comes with a Wacom. I will update later to see how long it takes me to wear it down. To my knowledge there were no extras but I'm sure the universal default ones will fit. I will say that I will order more of the flex tip nibs.Edit 3/3/18I've been playing with it everyday. Again I only use it for the drawing/reference photo capability and not for internet browsing etc. Revisited the default art program (with the 99 cent upgrade) so am still learning about the different tools/features. I did figure out ow to change the background color. I haven't quite found a way of adding color/painting that I like yet though. I now switch between it and ArtRage. The little daily challenges are also fun (can upload to deviantart).I tried replacing the default pen nib with one of the other ones I am more familiar with (fits wacom pens). Nope. It did not work. I am still researching if you can only use the default pen/nib or if there is a way to make any styluses work. I feel that the default is too hard. I like the smoother/felt type ones. Even with the screen protector on the tablet as well as drawing lightly, a person will scratch the crap out of the thing. I'm sure it would be easy just to put another screen protector on but hopefully you catch my drift.I did go ahead and purchase rechargeable AAAA batteries and an adapter as I use it for drawing a lot. Battery power overall? I can't gauge yet. I have ot remember to pay attention. I charge it all the way and also turn the screen off if I'm not drawing (ie sneaking in some drawing at work but a call comes in). I have noticed after disabling or force stopping programs the battery power is better. I also have wifi off because again, I'm just using it strictly for drawing purposes.

My daughter loved it

Not what I expected. Poor quality
