About this deal

One of the major marketing points for many of XPPen’s recent tablet releases is their X3 pen chip technology. There are some bold claims and fancy imagery to illustrate the improvements. One of those improvements is the amount force needed to register pressure (ie. initial activation force). Now ,as little as 3 grams of force is all that’s needed for your lines to appear. c. To switch to drawing tablet mode, press the power key and hold for 3 seconds. The indicator light will blink blue and orange. Press the power key again to return to normal mode.

I ‘forced’ myself to try out the shortcut keys and I have to say they felt nice and responsive when pressed.Along with the display itself, you get a bunch of accessories to help you along. To begin with, there’s a stylus, with a sturdy aluminum shaft and built-in control button. The actual nib is replaceable, and there are 10 spares included in the kit. Even if you’re using the stylus constantly, it will take a long time to wear through that many nibs. There’s a two-fingered drawing glove, which keeps you from accidentally triggering the screen with your hand while you’re working. There’s a cleaning cloth, so you can keep the screen clear of dust and smudges. There’s also a three-tipped connection cable and a USB extension cord. We’ll talk more about those in a moment. You wouldn’t want a higher resolution than 1920 x 1080 on a tablet this size, as working in an app like Photoshop would make its many menus and tabs too small to work with – but here, it’s all good. Everything is covered by XP-PEN’s 18-month manufacturer’s warranty. This means you don’t have to worry about any defects in materials or craftsmanship. The Artist 12 (2nd Gen) marks a big step for XP-Pen to catch up to what some of their competitors have been doing in the budget pen display market. Huion's KAMVAS line, for example, has had a couple of generations of pen displays featuring fully laminated screens, whereas XP-Pen has only just started to implement this feature properly among their Artist series pen displays. If you’re a visual artist, creating digital work can feel unnatural. Think of how you’d normally do a drawing, or paint a picture. You’d sit over a notebook, or behind an easel, and use a pencil or paintbrush to create your artwork. Now think about how you interact with popular software like Adobe Photoshop. If you’re like most people, you probably use a mouse and keyboard. A mouse and keyboard are great for many things. They’re fine for navigating the web, typing, and playing most types of video games. But they fall short when you need to create smooth, precise artwork.
