XPPen 4K UHD Artist Pro 19 Gen2 Drawing Tablet with Screen, 156% sRGB Graphic Tablet with 1.07 Billion Colors Anti-Glare Drawing Monitor with Dual 16384 Pen Pressure Stylus, Mini Keydial, 18.4"

This sucker is sweet! I was hesitant to pull the trigger because of its price tag but I'm glad I did. At $690, it's still cheaper than the Wacom Cintiq. This a viable alternative. I was fortunate to have waited a day longer to purchase this because I originally had the XP-Pen Artist22 in my Wishlist, not the 22E. I only recently discovered the 22E before my purchase and I would definitely recommend this model as it solves most of the issues that the 22 model has. For one thing, customizable express keys are on this unit which was a concern of mine about the 22. Secondly, the cable ports are on the right side of the model instead of the bottom where it makes it difficult to adjust the tilt.Naturally, the 22E carries a higher price tag than the 22 but the new features justify this price. I've only had this for a few days, but it serves as my main monitor. The main interruption in my workflow is having to jump back to my keyboard to type something, but if it's not anything lengthy, then the tablet has keyboard software where you can type onscreen or even write your text which comes in handy.The setup was a little bit tricky at first, but after installing the drivers and restarting my laptop, everything seemed to work fine. Also, if your cursor is offset by a whole half screen, then you'll have to put your display at 100% for your main display and tablet. That one had me baffled for a few minutes. This makes my 15.6" laptop difficult to read, but I've learned use the 22E as my main monitor and have become quite comfortable using the pen stylus instead of a mouse.This works amazingly with art programs like Krita and even ZBrush. I used to have a Wacom Intuos, but being able to draw onscreen while looking directly at what I'm creating makes a world of difference. It feels much more natural. There is a bit of parallax because of the thickness of the glass, but doesn't hinder the creative process and with time, you can get used to this. I'm sure this is true of all onscreen graphics tablets. And if you customize the express keys and even the pen buttons correctly for your art program, you'll have an efficient workflow that would make the traditional artist envious.The tablet comes with a screen protector which is installed with an adhesive strip at the top of your tablet. Honestly, I would advise against this. I used it at first but it creates rainbow colored "oil patches" on the screen which can throw your color off and they're quite noticeable. It creates a matte effect which can reduce some of the tablet's glare, but at night or in a dimly lit room, the glare isn't a problem. Aside from protecting your screen, the only other advantage I see that the screen protector has is that your hand seems to glide easier across the screen when drawing or painting. Also, when alternating between windows or programs, the cursor may jump to one side of the screen. This is easily solved by moving the pen away from the screen and then back on the screen to re-orient it.While the XP-Pen Artist 22E may have some minor issues, it's still an incredible tablet at a comparatively reasonable price that is sure to help you become the workhorse of an artist that you are.

Off and on through out my years of using Huion, Wacom, and now XPpen. I have to say, I'm super impressed with XPpen!I recently bought a wacom one. Quickly regretted it. I had returned it. It's response time was horrible, and wasn't worth $300. I was about to buy a huion again (had one many years ago) and saw reviews that within 3 years, the display would stop working.Then I found x pen, and this model. The reviews seemed amazing but I didn't get to hopeful.However, I'm glad I bought this!It's response time is amazing. Easy to use. The size of the screen is perfect and the colors are beautiful. The pens are super comfortable to use.It came with a handful of nibs, and two pens that I flip between. I'm still getting used to the keypad as I never used one until I bought this.Software installation was easy! Wacom was a nightmare.Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase of this display. The price, seems fair. I bought it while on sale for black Friday.As a graphic editor, I appreciate this display and will stick with XPpen from now on. So long as they keep making quality products, I'll keep coming back to buy from them.

I have been using this since I had received it. The set up was not at all as difficult than imagined, other than I had to switch the video cables between my original monitor and the graphic display monitor. I did not even need to delete the WinTab32.dll which someone had mentioned doing. Works fine with a number of Open Source Paint programs like MyPaint, Gimp, Krita and Inkscape. It, also, works well with paid for programs like Paint Shop Pro, PD Howler, JugiPaint, and Art Rage Studio.I figure I would have to shell over $650 bucks to Wacom for one of their smaller and least expensive Cirque pads. But, after shopping around Amazon and other places, the XP-Pen Graphics Display Monitor at over 21" was a way better price for a couple hundred bucks less. The Wacom Cirque at the same size is about $1,700.As far as portability goes ... I would say that it is not that portable. It's a lot heavier than you would think, like an older flat LED monitor would be when they first came out at that size. So, it's better to be set up in your art studio, den, bedroom or wherever you do your digital art. Carrying it around with you and your lap top would become very cumbersome.I definitely recommend this product for anyone artist, hobbyist or even student who want a good size graphics display monitor without breaking his budget or trying to win the Lottery.The one thing I would caution is that, since this device IS a TV/PC monitor; It is best that you, also, buy visors that protect your eyes from the high frequency blue light, UV rays and other light particles that is emitted from the monitor that could harm your eye sight. Gunnar produces such glasses. If other companies, check them out. Best to protect your eyes as much as possible.

This is a solid tablet that serves as a monitor for my Apple MacBook Air. By solid I mean that the frame is heavy and won't wobble or shake when using it. The drawback to this is not as portable as a smaller version but I keep it on my desk most of the time. It works with my apps for photo editing and 3D printing right out of the box. And it can be used in place of a mouse or trackpad. It is much easier to use because I use the pen pen directly on the monitor as I would on a sheet of paper or canvas.. The quality is good for what I do, but a professional artist needs to become familiar with its limitations before making a decision.
