XPPen Updated Deco 01 V3 Drawing Tablet-16384 Levels of Pressure Battery-Free Stylus, 10x6 Inch OSU Graphic Tablet, 8 Hotkeys for Digital Art, Teaching, Gaming Drawing Pad for Chrome, PC, Mac, Android

I am new to digital arts and tablets like this, so I don't have a lot to compare this to. However, I have been very pleased with mine. It is very responsive, works flawlessly, and I have had no issues at all. It seems built well, feels lightweight, and the small size makes super portable. It takes some getting used to to to draw while looking at your computer screen, but that eventually works okay too, once you get used to it. If you are in the market for a budget-friendly drawing pad, this will suit your needs perfectly.The pen works great too. I was annoyed at first because I kept accidentally clicking buttons on it while drawing, but after using for about a day, my fingers figured it out and this is no longer a problem. I like the wide grip, which makes it more comfortable to hold.

I am not an artist. Recently I had to sign some PDFs, so I hunted down my 20 year old tablet and pen. Well, those drivers left the internet some time ago. Ever tried to sign something with a mouse? A ten year old could have forged my signature better. Anyway, after a bit of research, I converged on this product. Unlike my old setup, the pen requires no battery. Great pressure range on the pen, and very sleek tablet with large work area and eight shortcut buttons. Very happy with this product at a very reasonable price. Configuration software is also very straightforward.

Pretty good tablet for the price. It has decent tilt and pen pressure. Only draw back I've found is the smoothness of it is a little lacking. This is really good for a beginner or as a travel tablet you wouldn't mind losing... its not really an replacement for a good top tier tablet though.Easy set up and lots of buttons to map. Came with a good amount of extra tips.Works well.*Note: The pen pressure only works through windows ink system... if you set it up using mouse settings it wont have pressure.

I’m really happy with my new XP-Pen tablet. The setup was super simple, and I was able to start drawing right away without any problems. The pen feels smooth and natural, and the pressure sensitivity works perfectly for sketching, shading, and writing. I also like that the surface has just the right texture, not too slippery, so it feels close to drawing on paper. The size is convenient for my desk, and the tablet is light enough to carry around. Overall, it’s very comfortable to use and makes digital art much easier and more enjoyable. Definitely recommend it!

This is a decent product! it was packaged nicely and works well. its not overwhelmingly amazing or anything, but definitely good enough. since this is my first drawing tablet, it might actually be Beter than I realize though.there is nothing wrong with it so I'm giving it 5 stars, strokes showed up well and its decently easy to draw with, good quality screen, the shortcut buttons for erasing and stuff made life a lot easier and also worked well. It was also bigger than I expected which was a nice surprise.All in all, this is a good, started item for if you are looking to getting into drawing with these types of tools

I was completely ignorant when I bought this product back in July after our district announced we would continue virtual teaching in August. I can operate the tech my elementary school provides, but I don't have a great background in new things. I knew I'd probably need to write while teaching so I bought this pen. Here's what I learned that could be helpful to other teachers like me who need this product:First, you need to be utilizing software that normally allows you to write. I didn't understand this so I almost packaged this item up & returned it. I held onto it for several days while I tried to research & play around with it. I couldn't seem to make it work. I was completely ignorant in this idea. Thank goodness I did not return it! So, Google Slides is a no-go as far as writing. I believe one of the reviews here at Amazon mention you can use it with Slides. Well, you don't normally write on slides so you can't write with this pen either. You must have software which includes a writing pen. My most used pieces of software which don't require me to pay anything are: Google Jamboard & Promethean Board software (ActivInspire is a FREE download for the basics). The ActivInspire software allows me to upload an entire pdf or pick certain pages of a pdf for the curriculum my school has already purchased. Then I can write & highlight directly on the pdfs using the XP Pen. I can present these things during my Zoom or Google Meet so my kids can see me writing using the XP Pen. Whiteboardfi is a free website which allows you to write as well. Then you can push the board out to the students repeatedly with new math problems, etc on it, over & over in seconds. Hint...if your kids don't have access to fancy tech, keep whatever you give the kids HUGE so they can easily manipulate the touchpad on their end to write on your math problems. My third graders have become pros at using their touchpad, as long as I keep my writing LARGE. I can write neatly & push things out repeatedly. I can also demonstrate easily with this XP Pen.Finally, I've seen some reviews of other teachers having a hard time writing with the XP Pen because you can't see as you write, as you can only see on your screen so it's a bit strange at first. After a number of sessions using the XP Pen, I quickly learned to write pretty well for what I need. I mainly use it to highlight text during reading instruction or to write/ draw math problems. I have decided to use the typing tool on my software when I need to write sentences onto small lines on an uploaded pdf. It's just easier for the kids to read it on their end.This was a fantastic purchase at a good price. I know there is a competing "name brand" for a lot more money, but as an elementary school teacher forced to teach virtually, this tool is perfect for my needs. I use it every single day to teach math and reading. I can't imagine not having it. After 3 months of use, I've had zero problems with it.

Easiest set up not even 10 minutes.Peeled the protective product film, Put in the screen protector, find your product on the site to install the correct driver, restart your computer, and plug it in. Boom. Very nice settings and pen pressure, pen doesn’t need batteries, the tablet is very sleek and light. Buttons are ever to remember.
