Here it would be worth noting that Apple’s pencil works on capacitive technology, but the XP-Pen on electromagnetic induction technology, so comparing these two pens just from the technical side is difficult. This may just be a matter of getting use to a new product. From an users point of view, there is a different feel to the amount of pressure I need to apply on the XP-Pen compared to an Apple pencil on the light pressure point. I feel it should be more responsive to a lighter touch so it would work better from an individual with a light touch. Slightly shortening it to the “heavy” end to make it easier for me to reach the last pressure level. I do not apply much pressure when I am drawing, so I adjusted the pressure curve to my drawing style. It has the same pressure sensitivity levels that almost all manufacturers in recent years have used – 8192. Pen The pen for the XP-Pen Artist Display 15.6 Pro works without a battery, like Wacom’s’ pens, which makes it light weight.

On the other hand, on Windows computers, the XP-Pen driver offers all these features.
Only the Mac’s display settings allow you to select a color profile and change the color temperature.

When you take it out of the box, the colors do not appear as natural as they do on iMac or iPad Pro screens.Īnd if you are a Mac user, the XP-Pen pen display driver does not offer the option of adjusting red, green, blue color individually or screen contrast. The screen promises 88% of the NTSC (120% sRGB) color range while most manufacturers offer 72% of the NTSC (100% sRGB ) color gamut. The pen display has a standard 1920 x 1080 resolution which on a 16-inch screen looks better than on the bigger 20 or 22-inch pen displays. It does not take up much space on the display, it is not too heavy and the tools are not in an inconvenient place. In my opinion, the size of a 16-inch pen display is a very good middle ground. After doing some research and comparison online, I have decided to try it out the XP-Pen Artist. Like Wacom, XP-Pen has put out a 16-inch pen display – the XP-Pen Artist Display 15.6 Pro. Huion, Artisul, Parblo, Gaomon, and Veikk are large players in the market. So far, the price gap between Wacom’s pen displays and similar products has been very wide.īut is there also a difference in quality? The main competitor for Wacom is XP-Pen which is mentioned as the best choice in many reviews. Apparently Wacom is feeling competitors breathing down their neck and feels that they are losing potential customers. This year Wacom (the industrial leader) has released its first economical version of the pen display – Wacom Cintiq 16. I am talking about tablets that must be connected to a computer through a cable to be able to draw on them. The pen display market has seen a lot of hustle in recent years, with the emergence of a variety of cost effect technologies for pen displays.
