Graphics tablet

REVIEW – There’s an interesting fact many people looking to buy a graphics tablet maybe don’t consider—size. Oh, I know size is a factor because the larger the tablet, the more it costs. But there’s something else and it’s this: If a display tablet is 16 in. or less, it will not be the main […]

REVIEW – Throughout my career as an art director, I’ve used many drawing tablets, displays, and even a few Apple iPads. In the display arena, for what seems like forever, Wacom was “it”—the only game in town. Then, competitors began showing up and recently have been giving Wacom some real competition. XPPen is one such

REVIEW – In my multi-year career as an art director and children’s book designer, I’ve used quite a few graphics tablets. And over the past few years, I’ve reviewed many other graphics tablets, both with and without screens. Some I now use every day in my work—I like them that much. And while I may

REVIEW – In economics, there is something called the “Trickle-down Theory”, meaning the best of a few years ago works its way down to the rest of us mere mortals. While you may or may not agree with that theory, it does hold true for many products—notably display tablets. Features that were only in high-end

REVIEW – I have been a DIYer for many years, and I often sketch ideas on paper. I would often end up with the idea I wanted but not before a pile of discarded paper with flawed sketches filled the garbage can next to me. Then there is my 7-year-old daughter who is really interested

REVIEW – For those digital artists who are looking to buy a pen display, it’s easy to overlook the pen tablets that started it all—those black slates with no built-in screen that lay flat on a desk. True, display tablets are wonderful—I use one every day, but I didn’t begin my career using one. That
