There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Accuracy is good, it feels very nice and natural to use. I'm coming from using an old non-display type, so the jump to having a display I can look at while drawing is fantastic. Intuitive layout, and hotkey buttons are easy to set up. Unfortunately one of the wheels doesn't work right with my art program, but that's a quirk of the program, not of the device, I think. The stand is plastic and might look a little flimsy at first, but it feels solid under the tablet and I haven't had any trouble with it. Stylus pen feels good to use, not clunky or awkward.
TL;DR: Great display and textured feel, but gets scuffed/scratched over time. Easy to use drivers/customization, but tablet becomes very finnicky when used as a second monitor.
Dropping the pen can damage it irreversibly; BE CAREFUL!
*Also consider buying a new stand. The one it comes with is alright but I got a parblo stand and it does a fantastic job.
Pros; Bright-colored display, paper-like grip, easily adjustable brightness and straightforward control customization/drivers.
Great longevity so far! Over two years strong!
Cons; DO NOT DROP THE PEN. Only a month or so after initially buying it, I dropped the pen from approx. 3 ft over carpet. I was sitting down and fumbled with it- Was suddenly drawing severely off-center from pen and could not reach the edges of the display. Recalibration did not work.
I work in tech, and saw a guide online to open the pen and tweak a potentiometer inside. Tweaks *improved* it, but it was extremely temperamental and was quickly completely unusable. Had to pitch the pen and buy a new one. At least the replacement was only 15~20$... I've accidentally dropped this pen countless times now and yet it hasn't faced the same problems... maybe my first one was a dud? I still get a spike of panic anytime I drop it, though...
For other cons; very temperamental if used as a second display. If you want to use it as a secondary display (in Windows 10~11), you have to both set display settings as "extend these displays" as well as select the area of the tablet in XP-Pen driver settings as the touch display, else touch will not work correctly.
However, if used as a second display, it can sometimes flash wildly when turning it on or off, and sometimes completely at random. My first laptop got pretty messed up if I unplugged the tablet while it was configured to extend the display, and would distort the display of the laptop severely.
If you aren't using the tablet as a second display, you shouldn't encounter these issues.
In the past couple months I've had to sometimes pat or almost "slap" the tablet to stop it from flashing wildly, sort of like a janky TV? The display can also get mild "screen bleed" in which images will linger if the display is left on a still image for more than 5 minutes or so. Fortunately this is never permanent.
The display HAS been scuffed by the pen over time and at some point along the way a small gap in the textured finish developed but I HAVE been using it heavily for over two years. She's an old girl!
Overview: In spite of everything I've said, I'm pretty happy with this tablet. It's been going for over two years. It feels hardy and substantial, just be careful with the pen and consider getting a screen protector for the display.

For my lefties-
its good for u too, if u set it up as ur main display then flip the screen it will not flip ur monitor, just ur tablet. had to troubleshoot to figure it out, also the plug isnt designed for lefties because it covers the power button so u either have to leave it on and unplug it then plug it in so u dont have to use the power button.
works great the 1080p is fine since its pixel density is more than a 22inch, doesnt come with a stand unfortunately. and the screen protector they give u for free sucks i heard, im not putting it on, people complained how dust is in it and it will almost always get bubbles
Top reviews from other countries
I had to return the first one due to a bubble in the factory-applied matt screen protector, but second was fine so just a matter of looking at it carefully before you start using.
The only things I didn't like...
Pen stand - the lovely pen container is all very smart and nice but doesn't have a stand for the stylus. Xp-Pen don't do one yet for this stylus, but the UPPERCASE Designs NimbleStand Vertical Stand for the Apple Pencil seems to do the job for me as the difference in stylus width is only 0.4mm.
Stand - it doesn't come with one, but I'm using a Parblo PR110 which works well with this.
Plug - the USB C connector has to head north of the tablet, otherwise it covers the power button - SEE PICTURE ATTACHED - and unlike the old 15.6, the little USB-C corner-pieces that you can buy on Amazon to hide the power connector when using on a stand just don't quite fit (the socket hole must be a touch smaller), so sadly you can't really "hide" the wire completely when using on a stand. Then at the computer end of things I it is the old 3-connector end for the power, USB connection and HDMI connector. Hope they can do a single USB-C to USB-C one day!
Visible screen - I do wish that the inch of black around the screen could be reduced to make the whole thing smaller, but all tablets this size are like that. It is a lovely screen though - matt effect, nice and bright and crisp.
So in summary, it's great to use, but you have to think about your accessories. If you're someone who just carries something around in a case and uses it flat then you'll of course be fine without a stand and pen holder.
