Huion Inspiroy Dial 2 15

REVIEW – In previous graphics tablet reviews, I’ve noted that there are a lot of drawing tablets (both slate and display) available for what I always thought was a relativity small market.

XP Pen Deco LW 16

REVIEW – If you are either a pro or amateur digital artist, you know what a drawing tablet is. And you probably even have one.
