| Our verdict | A modernized compact display that uses etched anti-glare glass rather than protective film to combat parallax and improve nib drag. The 11.9-inch diagonal makes it easily transportable, though operating complex digital audio or illustration software feels constrained. It suits artists working on mobile laptop setups who demand durable glass. | Provides a generous ten-by-six-inch drawing surface at an entry-level price. The advertised 16K pressure levels offer diminishing returns over standard 8192 levels, as drawing feel depends far more on hand travel and surface friction. It is a capable, no-frills slate for students and photo retouchers. |
