A good Affordable choice
This is my second xp pen artist went for larger size because of offer. Suggest always get largest screen you can afford. Works great with my Linux system, easy to install would highly recommend

Ruined by abysmal drivers and zero support.
It's a decent drawing tablet. It's big, bright and accurate. I've moved over from a really old Wacom Cintiq, and the size is the only thing that is an upgrade.The drivers absolutely ruin this tablet. They're useless, unreliable and full of bugs which makes using this thing an absolute test in patience for anyone wanting to use it in a professional capacity.For starters, the drivers will occasionally decide that you're no longer drawing on the tablet and default the cursor to your main monitor. This can not be rectified from within the driver software, as it says you're using the tablet, but it is in fact using the main monitor. Cool. So to fix it, you turn the tablet off and back on. Not a huge problem, until it decides to do it every 30 minutes. Then you're constantly turning it off and on, having to move windows back to the tablet, etc, etc. it ruins your workflow and is a general pain in the rear end.Then there's the pen. The pen itself is fine, slightly smaller to what I'm used to, but fine. The buttons are located slightly too close to the end for my liking, I catch them a lot. Not ideal, but you can disable them in the drivers. Or so it says...Nope! Doesn't work. I mean, it does "work", pressing the buttons once disabled does in fact do nothing. BUT! It interrupts whatever you're doing on the pen. So if you're doing a long stroke and accidently catch the buttons, it stops. WHY?! Why do this!? This completely ruins the entire tablet's function as a drawing tablet. It wouldn't be so bad if the buttons weren't in such a terrible location and so soft and pathetic that a small fart could press them.I've emailed XP-Pens support to ask if these issues are known (they must be, due to the fact the other reviews mention them) and if they have plans to fix them. No response. 11/10, would talk to a brick wall again.Absolute garbage product, garbage support, garbage drivers, do yourself a favour and either try a different brand, or save some money for a real Wacom, I wish I had.

Amazing gift
Bought this for my nephew as he just started uni and didn’t have enough to buy himself and he loves it. Great for his course and he loves drawing and he said it’s easy for him to travel with and he’s said it’s easy to use!

My conclusion on this tablet
I purchased this tablet on the offer price of around £350, which is very cheap considering some drawing tablet prices.Unlike your graphics tablets, Drawing tablets incorporate their own display, so it's closer to actually drawing on paper and feels more natural than using a glorified mouse pad with a pen.This changed the style of the way I draw and I find a great preference in using this device over a graphics tablet. The colours are pretty good and viewing angles are pretty good. The accessories are a mice bonus too.There are however some gripes, which don't necessarily inhibit use of the tablet.Drivers are the main issue with this Tablet. As others have mentioned, sometimes the pen won't register, which leave you with an expensive monitor and having to hard reset the device.Other times the pen will register but will operate on your default monitor much like a graphics tablet, this issue can be fixed by setting your tablet display as the default monitor in your display settings but means that all apps and tabs open there first.This can be fixed in the xp pen app by selecting the default settings, each time.The pen can sometimes be a little inaccurate leading it to just skew off and make a straight line, this is an issue I have experienced with a previous xp pen tablet before. This one only seems to do it on the right hand side though.Another is the button's on the pen; they're awful. I disable them as by default one is a back button, which you catch while drawing and as you touch the screen, it erases any memory of a line you've just drew. Driver updates sometimes fix this.Despite these issues it isn't a terrible tablet and could just be proprietary driver issues with my PC, overall this tablet is great value for the price and you won't find anything of similar build quality that is cheaper.TL;DRThis is a good tablet for the price, watch out for it being on offer, and once you get it, keep the drivers up to date.Probably worth insuring it to with it not really being cheap to replace or fix.

Fantastic drawing tablet. Good colour out of the box.
I have seen a fair few people talking badly about XP-Pen because of their plastic screen protector having poor durability but honestly, with 3 months of ownership, I have yet to have had a problem with it.My cat has even tried scratching it and its fine.As for the performance:Worked pretty much out of the box. Just had to download the drivers from XP-Pen. I am quite surprised they don't register the drivers to ship with windows with how many people use XP-Pen.There is very little parallax to the screen. (cursor to pointer discrepancy) so little in fact you actually have to look for it to notice itThe quality of the screen is very sharp despite being only 1080pThe colour quality is amazing. I hadn't noticed how yellow whites are on my main monitor until I put this one next to it.In otherwords, I am well chuffed with the purchase.

Product good. Amazon service Crap
Product all fine but not what we wanted .. so went to return as it’s “free returns”.. Amazon told me I hadto return it and they would refund cost .. they supplied courier details too… firstly Amazon didn’t log item as received for about a month then said it’s not free returns !!!!!!! So Amazon lied and stole my money …. All this is on their chat too but they ignore requests to read this
