@C.Wilson Tyvm, great channel, btw! My dream device is a big phone that will use upcoming rollable technology to turn into a laptop-size screen like the concept Samsung Flex G, but that's a foldable. Ideally a stylus would stow away in the device like on the Ultra phone models and the old Galaxy Note Ultra models for convenience. 🙏

I’ve been looking at this product and have been contemplating on it cause i want a tablet to draw in photoshop and a laptop to work in illustrator. How is it weight wise, does it feel heavy say when you are on the couch and just want to draw?
@C.Wilson
@C.Wilson 2 ай бұрын
If you treat it like a tablet and try to draw by holding it, then weight will be a problem. It's a hefty laptop. That being said, it has good lapability. I recommend using it only on your lap or table. You can use it on the couch as long as it's on your lap or on the side of you on the couch.

Will any of the s9 fe and fe+ with their Exynos chipsets perform well animating with lots of layers in CSP? I'm debating on getting one since they're MUCH cheaper than the s9 series, but I'll only go with FE(s) if they can animate well without taking a huge performance hit.
@C.Wilson

Honestly that should be ok. The only problem I could see you running into is length and resolution. If you're working with a lot of layers at a high resolution and dpi that chip will heat up. Short 720p projects will be fine.

Nice review! I'm wondering how you like the Dial and the Slim Pen? I'm coming from Wacom Cintiqs (I'm a snob for pen line quality and comfort-- can't stand the iPad Pro but maybe I got a faulty unit, the tilt latency drives me nuts) and XP Pen Pro and Wacom Mobile Studio Pro (express keys galore!!! And twisty wheels!!!!!) Do you find the Slim pen to be comfortable and well-receptive? You were getting a nice variation in line width in your video. And for the Dial, I think I read it's got multiple functions; I'm hoping for something to easily flip animation frames and brush sizes, while also easily providing at least 4 hotkeys. I'm thinking I may just pair an old Wacom Remote as in theory, it should do the job (but I really really love the wheel on the XP Pen). Not expecting you to have played with all these devices, but appreciate any thoughts you may have, if you do have experience with them! Thanks!
@C.Wilson
@C.Wilson 3 ай бұрын
@@tahnmeep Thank you. I do find the slim pen easy to hold and use. It's a pretty solid bit I would definitely put Wacom, Apple, and even Samsung a notch above the slim pen. the Dial can be useful, I use it as a glorified back button. This is why I like what they did with the new surfaces having the ability to use the new type cover when not connected. Though you may be able to program the Dial to do a bit more. If you have a nearby best buy I recommend going and trying out the slim pen. They should have display surfaces out just so you can see if the pen is something you can get used to.

@@C.Wilson Great suggestion with checking out the pen at Best Buy! I heard something once that Samsung is using Wacom technology. It looks like the Dial has rotate, click-hold, and click.

1. I'm interested if you have to be careful not to touch the screen when using pen... this very important for me, I'd like to keep my hand on the screen freely. So can you turn off touch? (I could perhaps only use two-finger zoom etc. and it would preferably only work when there are exactly two touch points used clearly.) 2. Also if it's too slippery, it's not good to draw. This is one of the reasons I could not buy Surface Studio (not the lapstop studio, I haven't tried the screen yet). 3. Also while I have one Surface Pro and it's good, I'm a power laptop user also so for example I'd like to be able to be in ANY position without the screen dropping or something (so for example 180 degrees on my thighs when I'm sitting knees up), so that's why traditional laptops and Surface Book would be much better; I've decided not to buy the trad. Surface Pro model.
@C.Wilson

For both, using the Slim Pen 2 offers little to no resistance. There is a feature built in that mimics texture. It's not bad, but a matte protector would give more grip. I've not had any issues drawing and having my hands on the screen.
