They fixed the mis-alignment issue
So- friend kept insisting that I try an iPad Pro, try it try it try it. "It's the best tablet for artists not at a desk". Ok, fine, I tried it and it was solid. Great colors, solid pen- that needs to be charged, but also it was $1,500 for the 'affordable one' which was also on sale when I bought and the pen wasn't included. I returned it because iOS is infuriating to do anything with.I saw this, saw some reviews, saw it had a pen alignment problem but also saw comments saying 'they fixed it'. So for $500 you get a tablet, the pen, the charger,a glove, a case and there's a variant (that I got) that comes with a keyboard.This thing is fantastic to draw on, feels exactly like my desktop tablet (different brand but they're comparable). Has no trouble handling Clip Studio Paint with even high res files , vector inks and what not. Solid battery life too, I can't guess what it was specifically, but it lasted me a while and I didn't have to charge it after I was done sketching and inking. The pen feels better than the Apple Pencil- like they're comparable but this one feels a lot nicer and if you want a bigger one? The XP Pen gen 3 pens work with this- and they're not remotely close to as the same price.I tried some simple multitasking too where you can put a smaller window in the top corner while drawing and playing music via AIMP. No problems at all, handled it easily. Confident that as long as you're not doing giant canvas sizes with giant complex brushes? It'll work good. I haven't tested it more extensively than my cellshaded style with vector inks and far too many layers for what I need but it works super well.The screen is really, really nice. It's a textured glass that gives a nice feel to drawing and seems to be oil resistant. Which is great because you're touching it a lot to adjust settings or the canvas. So the oils would build up normally and cause inconsistent strokes.Yes it doesn't have the M4 chip or a fancy camera or an oled. But, you're likely getting this to draw and not go that level of ham with the iPad.The keyboard that you can get? It's fine. Very ok. It doesn't feel amazing to type on and the trackpad is not great, not unusable but it works. It's perks are it seamlessly latches to the device with magnets and connects and protects your device when moving the tablet around. There's no battery to worry about but also no extra ports. But also it only works when it's attached, so you'd have to feel out if that's good. Plus, it slides around if the table is smooth- which most are. So maybe a separate bt keyboard would be better for you.I highly recommend the device. It's a good piece of kit and isn't wallet destroying like the iPad or Surface. Just be sure you're ok with the android apps around- which there are plenty these days! It just pays to do some research before diving in.Ver másVer menos
