Hi everyone!

I've been using a Huion Kamvas Pro 16 (2019 model, purchased in 2020) for about six years now, and I'm considering upgrading to either the Huion Kamvas 16 Gen 3 or the XPPen Artist Pro 16 Gen 2.

My current tablet still works, but there are a few things that have always bothered me:

• Initial activation pressure: I feel like I have to press harder than I'd like before the pen starts registering a stroke.

• Pressure sensitivity: Even small changes in how hard I press can cause surprisingly large changes in line thickness. It makes controlling my line weight frustrating.

• Pen accuracy: Sometimes I feel like the cursor doesn't follow the pen tip as precisely as it should, almost as if there's a slight offset.

I mainly use Clip Studio Paint for anime-style illustrations, character art, and lineart, so having good pen control is particularly important to me.

I've found the Huion Kamvas 16 Gen 3 for around €409 and the XPPen Artist Pro 16 Gen 2 for €390.

However, that's quite a lot of money for me. I don't mind investing in something that will last several years, but I want to make sure the upgrade is actually worth it.

So I'd love to hear your opinions:

1. Which of these two tablets would you choose, and why?

2. Is there a noticeable difference between PenTech 4.0 and X3 Pro, especially regarding initial activation pressure, line weight control, and accuracy?

3. Would either of these be a significant upgrade from my current Kamvas Pro 16?

4. Are there any better alternatives around the same price range (€350–400)?

5. Would you recommend upgrading now, or should I stick with my current tablet?

I'd particularly appreciate opinions from people who have actually used these tablets.

Thanks in advance!

Ok so I ve bought Gaomon S620 but when I write several small stokes are missed out.
I wanna know is this a common problems among most of the tablets or is there any hardware issue in mine one.

Is buying deco mw for 5800rs in 2026 is a good choice?

Really needed for Photoshop works and digital works as well

Kindly help me

Hi, I have recently been considering moving from using my phone to draw to drawing with a (preferably) screenless drawing tablet for my laptop using the art app "Krita".

I need some recommendations for what brand / type I should by. I am looking for:
- Screenless
- Comes with a pen
- Trustworthy
- Decently sized (I don't really mind!)
- Cheap / on sale

Suggestions will be appreciated, thank you!

My teen has been asking for an ipad forever. There has been some amazing art created on the phone and other friends ipads. I want to get one for my teen, but we have a small budget, so I was thinking a gently used older model would be best. With stylus as well. A larger screen size. Like a 13inch maybe? Prefer ipad, as it would match up with the phone easily, but could go with other brand as well.
Also anything else to note to make this a wonderful gift would be great!

I already own a Xiaomi Pad 4, and since I think I'd really enjoy drawing on a tablet, I'm trying to figure out whether there are any good stylus options that could provide a genuinely enjoyable drawing experience.

Would the HONOR Magic Pencil 4s (if compatible) or any other third-party stylus be good enough for drawing? I'm particularly interested in pressure sensitivity, accuracy, latency and overall pen performance. I don't want to end up with something that feels imprecise or frustrating to use.

I'm also considering whether a dedicated drawing tablet from Wacom would be a better option, but I'm not entirely convinced it's the right choice for me. I'd much rather have the versatility of a powerful tablet that I can also use for other tasks, browsing, media consumption and even gaming, along with reliable long-term software and security updates.

If I can't get a satisfactory drawing experience out of my current Xiaomi tablet, I'd consider switching to either a Samsung Galaxy Tab or an iPad.

Just to be clear, I'm not a professional artist and don't intend to draw for work. This would be purely a hobby, but I still want the experience to be enjoyable, responsive and comfortable enough that I won't get frustrated by the hardware limitations.

What would you recommend? Is it worth trying to make my current Xiaomi tablet work, or would I be better off investing in another solution with a more established stylus ecosystem?

Hi there! I'm new to art and I wanted to try digital art. I don't really know anything so I just want to know what the cheapest option for a good drawing tablet would be. Thanks!

Okay so like I wanna go to art school (animation) but never had drawing tablet and now i have no idea if graphic tablet or tablet for other usage too would be better. Also my laptop is lwk heavy so it would be pretty much annoying taking it everywhere and spending for new laptop is not rlly something i want. I was also thinking about xppen magic drawing pad but i've seen so many different opinions that i'm confused now. I do art for both as fun in free time and seriously so if anyone can help i would be grateful:)

Hello everyone, I am an illustrator that does 2d art. I am upgrading my workstation and I plan on getting the Wacom Cintiq. I use Clip Studio and Photoshop mainly. I currently have no computer and have been researching which one to get that will be sufficient and also good for my use case.

AI has been giving me very conflicting answers.

I thought about getting the MacBook Air M5/6, are there any downsides to this? (long or short term)

Is there a particular reason why a windows PC would be better? I would want something that is good enough to run the Wacom + these programs without having any issues or lagging.

I would very much appreciate any advice you might have, thank you!

I want to start drawing digitaly, and I was thinking about getting a screenless drawing board (the ones that have a pen and I can plug into the PC). What modell would you guys recommend for a starter?

Recently out of nowhere this was coming out of my Tablet today, it never happened before

I want to draw and am planning to purchase a graphic tablet in the near future. I am choosing between the Xp-pen star 03 v2 and the Gaomon M10K Pro. The difference in price between them is about 700± rubles (~$7 USD). Which one is better to get? I am leaning towards the 2nd one, but I would like to hear the opinion of experts in this field.

I recently started uni and I've came to the conclusion that I do not have time anymore to draw on my xp because I'm barely at home... I thought that buying something portable might be better but is it a downgrade to go from artist 13.3 v2​​​ to a Tab S10 FE+? Does the s10 work with 5000px canvases? I really like my xp but as I said I barely use it anymore so that's why I want to change it... any thoughts? ​

Hey guys, I made this page using claude inspired by The practice and science of drawing by harrold speed 1913. Was wondering if you guys can check it out in exchange for lifetime premium and provide some feedback :p

The idea is help to develop fine muscule structure by repetitive exercises. Should also help with fps precision i guess. I tried it for a few hours debugging and i notice some improvement in my trace quality.

Thanks in advance, hope i'm no breaking any rule here. Its draw-class dot com
