Deco Fun Series - XP Pen Review // Best Budget Tablet for Beginners?

[@Skeliana]

Although I understand your stance on if it's for professionals or not, I feel like this also fits professionals as well. I'm not a professional artist but imo I think this tablet (specifically the large one cus of its size) has all the functionality I could ever need for any kind of drawing - 8k+ pressure levels, tilt functionality, good size, compatible with android, cheap, and minimalistic design. I don't really use express keys on my drawing tablets so it's also another bonus for looking even more clean. Even though it's really cheap and catered to general use and for beginner artists, it has everything I could ever want in a regular drawing tablet. If this was out a few years ago when I was looking for a tablet, I would've gotten this in a heartbeat!! It just seems like the perfect tablet, even if I was a professional! Great video!! :D

[@AnnaSok_Art]

Skeliana, you make a great point! I'm sure professional artists could use it for their work as well. I guess I sometimes forget how quickly the tech world is moving, there always seems to be a new and better thing))) Great points though! And thank you for watching 😊

I've been invited to online gallery expos in the past and had people floored when finding out I'm not a professional, running off the cheap hardware, never been to college and is self taught. The tablet doesn't make you the professional. Your skill is what makes you the professional. I had been asked how I get my line work done so elegantly when I have the cheap hardware and told them how I did it. I went back and thinned the edges and tips with the eraser. Took HOURS.

@@christins.1481 so cool!

[@greglane334]

Not a beginner artist,I've just been out of it for a long time. Starting up again and to make my t-shirt designs more unique,I decided to get a drawing tab. This review helped me decide on which one to start with. Thanks!

[@AnnaSok_Art]

That makes me very happy 😊 hope you enjoy it!

[@nicolekong3699]

Love your review!! Was thinking of getting one for school and had no idea which size to get. Now I know which one I want :D

[@AnnaSok_Art]

haha, that's awesome, Nicole! Which one are you going for?

[@YoBoyZed]

I can definitely say, deco fun XS really works for me dont know why but i think it really fits with phone drawings

[@cajucomjanincelina9051]

3:02 can't you just use standard usb-c to usb-c cable? (like from power brick)

[@dyscotopia]

If your reason for being a creator is to make it big, the democratization of quality usable tech at low prices is a problem because you're competing with countless more people... But if you're creating because you have a vision you want to express, it's a fantastic time to be alive.

[@redoxosu4506]

8:15 That osu! game is fun, but the difficulty ramps up pretty quick. It's a rhythm game. You can either use the tablet [Deco Fun] or the mouse to aim, and the keyboard to hit the circles. Best part though: You don't need a NASA computer to run it. You can run the game on a low end desktop/laptop easily. And it's free.

[@AnnaSok_Art]

Sounds like fun! Have you played it a lot?

[@gracekoh2877]

I'm also using a macbook. Have u tried using your own USB-C to USB-C cable to connect the tablet directly to macbook directly? (Not having to buy an adaptor)

[@atesoniaincanada]

Nice XP pen review for beginners.

[@gta_lens]

XS - black S - blue L - green and red

[@gpskl4]

Hi can i use this to sign the documents Thanks

[@kratikasingh6315]

Are there any shortcut buttons given on the device as are there on XP pen deco mini 7 Also plzzz suggest which one to go for deco mini 7 or deco fun S.🙏

[@impression_dental]

No shortcut keys given in Deco Fun S/L but stylus is better than the one with Deco mini 7

[@204154529]

Hi. I am merely looking for a tablet to do document edits and engineering drawing markups/sketches for work, outside of Revit and Autocad that I usually use. What I want to understand is... is it the program you using that allows all the different lineweights etc or is it the tablet itself. In other words, if I wrote in Adobe PDF or other PDF editor, will the lines be thicker the harder I press etc or is that only something that happens in photoshop type software like you using in this video.

[@silentsnipe215]

Which would you chose between the S and the XS? I would like to have a travel tablet just not sure if the size of the XS is to small. Just curious what your thoughts for a decision for that would be.

[@AnnaSok_Art]

Xs is so tiny!! It would be great for travel. S is very tiny too though, so it really depends on your bag size and how much of a drawing space you need.

[@Coldvibevoltage]

Can you use it with affinity???

[@ravisunny2]

Hello, Anna. Thank you for the wonderful review! I have a couple of questions, please. 1) How long is the USB C cable? I have to connect the tablet to a desktop, so I'd need it to be at least 2 feet long. 2) I am planning to use the tablet (the large size) for teaching math, physics, and engineering. Do you foresee any problems? Thank you, Ravi

[@Itsme45454]

It work on lower Android tablet?🤔🤔

[@austindekker3644]

If i were to buy one, where do i put the code for the discount ?

[@govinbaraik2833]

[@shaeamberclemons90]

I bought two of these. But I didnt get the software. Its plug and play and until I saw your video I see that there is software. I couldnt find it on the site. Can you help?

[@mialeyli]

My guess: L - Black S - Green Xs - red

[@earlhallera7638]

What's the difference between having 60 degree tilt and not?

[@AnnaSok_Art]

Some brushes have properties that change when the pen is tilted, so that’s useful! Plus, you don’t have to keep your pen straight all the time to draw. But honestly, it’s such a common thing now that I would be surprised if a pen tablet didn’t have this feature!

[@lmeme2248]

Hello :) does it support Ibis Paint App for drawing? Tq!

[@vishnuvn9495]

Aaahhh this tablet make me more confused, please which beter deco fun or veikk a15pro..

[@Lyruby0]

does this support windows 11

[@marcello4258]

Args.. Your code does not work for the German shop :P ..btw you should do smth good for yourself and get a new iPad then you will have a USB-C to USB-C cable ;) ...you should have mentioned it works with Linux which, actually, is one of the main reasons to look into their products to me. But you were saying this is not any good for intermediate? So what would you go for then? The Deco L ?

[@siddharthkadam2553]

Deco 01 V2 or Deco fun????

[@EveDahianaMusic]

I have the same question T_T

[@Shinedark59]

How long does one nib lasts? please let me know, i asked so many people who have used for over a year but didn't got any response

[@sebastiancabrol2014]

it depends on the amount of presure you apply to the pen when drawing. the tablet´s surface it´s not 100% smooth, it has some texture so it doesn´t slide, so with some time and use the nib could reduce a little bit in size and scratch the active area. It depends on the brand, but a single nib could last for a year at least.

[@Shinedark59]

@@sebastiancabrol2014 ohh, thank you so much 😊, i had bought a graphics tablet and yeah it can last nicely over a years , i only use it for writing.

[@mhaaa4700]
