Graphics Tablet Buying Guide for TEACHERS

[@MathMathX]

Thank you so much for watching 💙. What tablet do you use? Is it good? Let us know. And don't forget to like and subscribe for more videos about educational technology. If you have any questions, please comment below. Thanks.

[@derrick401]

Currently looking at the Huion, and the XP, not avoiding the Wacom, just seeing what is out there for the $. . For making lessons to be recorded, the wireless seems to not really matter. In a class it would be great however to have the portability. I will let you know once we land on one.

[@MathMathX]

Great. Both xppen and huion have very good models. I tried the tablets in thevideo (except hs611) and they are really good. I am also currently reviewing huion inspiroy dial. Video will be ready in two days and you can check out that too if you want to buy that one.

[@petiteyoya]

I'm learning so much about technology (thanks to the pandemic to be honest). I'm a teacher and I'm teaching with my Yoga Lenovo 520, which has a touch screen and a digital pen too. It makes my classes much easier than just using the mouse (I'm not a big fan). However, after a long time working, my hand sores (I would like a more comfortable position for it (on the table not in the air) and I have to correct lots of writings (this time digital ones) and I think one of this tablets would help me a lot. Thank you so much for the info you share. Now I feel more confident about what to buy. Greeting from Mexico.

[@MathMathX]

Hi@@petiteyoya I just saw your comment, sorry for the late reply. You are right, hand positioning is really important. Thats why, using graphics tablets is more comfortable and also I like the friction on the surface of graphics tablets. It is better than writing on a glass or glasslike surface. 🇲🇽 ❤

[@pascalbercker7487]

I absolutely love your approach and your advice, and learned a great deal from this video. One small quibble is the background music which, at times, was a bit too loud and interfered with your otherwise excellent presentation.

[@ronylanssiers7694]

Even though I am not a teacher, I found your video very interesting and would like to ask you 2 questions: a) Around time code 0:30, there seems to be a kind of keyboard with customizable keys on the left next to your headphones. I would be interested to know what that is? b) Do you know any good (preferably open source) software for making mathematical drawings to illustrate concepts like coordinate systems on a sphere? Thank you in advance for your reply.

[@MathMathX]

Hi Rony, thanks for your kind words. I really appreciate it. I donwloaded the pic in 0:30 from pixabay.com (free full stock website) i don't know what this is and i couldn't find it in the description but it looks like a game pad or something about music. I really dont know here is the link for the original pic:pixabay.com/photos/computer-workplace-company-414055/ About the marh drawing software, i am currently searching for those kind of software to learn and record videis about them. I heard some people are using Inkscape. I just watched some videos about it and i think it is useful for mathematical drawings. Again, after I have a clear idea about those software, i will share my opinions in a video. Sorry, I couldn't answer your questions.

Hi, could you advise which brand/model has a paper-like feeling when writing on it? Some of them is like wriiting on a smooth glass, hard to control. Thanks in advance.

[@MathMathX]

Hello, it is really hard to find a tablet which feels like a paper. I tried tens of devices and didn't find any. The classic ones with no screen feels like a smooth plastic-like surface. And the monitor tablets feel like smooth glass. I heard about REMARKABLE tablets, they say it is good but I didn't try them.

[@davidbautista351]

Thanks for the video, loved it. Right now xp pen star05 is outdated. which one would you pick instead? star 06 or deco 3? These are bigger size (6x10), cant find any xp at (8x5). Or may be now you would buy another brand? Thanks a lot.

[@MathMathX]

Hi David, medium size tablets are super convenient but not easy to find. If you dont mind having big size tablets, deco 03 and Huion Inspiroy dial are good. I am using these two a lot. Sorry for the late response. I am moving to another apartment these days.

Do these pen tablets work only with specian programs like paint? Or can i write notes on pdf files while teaching?

[@MathMathX]

Hi Mary, it is like a mouse. It controls your mouse when you connect it. If you have a writing or drawing software you can definitely use it. To write on pdf files, you can watch this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnaTk4eFZdJ6b80

I would like to buy huion hs611 , but i see it will be available in August! So I am thinking to buy wacom by one medium size. I have test it , and it has the basics, it's wired .For teaching purpose it is ok. It costs 85 euros. Should I proceed and buy it, or wait?

[@MathMathX]

It is ok to buy a wired tablet. and wacoms are solid i dont think there is a quality difference between wacom one and hs611. I haven't tried hs611 personally I added to my list bcz of some recommendations from other educators. Actually in an online classroom Most tablets do the job but some offer extras. Thats why I like Huion and Xppen. If you are interested, I ordered huion Inspiroy dial and Xppen Deco 01 last weekend and I will test them whenever I receive the tablets and record review videos.

[@shahin515]

Very effective video. Many to thanks to you for this. I want to buy a graphics tablet. If I buy a small graphics tablet which area is 6 inch*below 4 inch then will it be a problem to teach ICT. When I have to draw logic gates etc.....

Thank you. You will be able to draw but you will have a small drawing area. Some people prefer having a small size tablet and it is ok if it is not tooo small.

Are pressure sensitivity and tilt functionality features to be considered before buying? Thanks!

These are not really really important for teachers who teaches lessons like math and science but if you teach art, it is important. Also most new models offer 8k sensitivity which is almost maximum level. And all the tablets I talked about have that feature. I am using the tablets in the video for almost 5 years and I have never used tilting function. But if you think you ll use, you can definitely choose models with that function.

[@RitaAguiarVEVO]

Thank you for sharing this. As you said, most teachers are new to online education. My parents are elder teachers and they will not use a tablet without a screen. Do you have any recommendations for tablets with screens for teachers? I was looking into wacom bamboo, which rather than a screen it is actually composed of a digital table that digitalizes what you write on a piece of paper on top of it. This could be ideal for my parents. Only problem? The only way to stream it online is if you connect it to an intermediate such as a phone or tablet, tipically an iphone or ipad. Unfortunatelly most people in Europe don't use Apple so that's a no no for us here. Any tips/solutions? I would really appreatice. Sincerely, Rita

[@MathMathX]

Hi Rita, i recommend artist pro series from xppen or huion kamvas. Artist 13 pro and huion kamvas 13 are great. Here is my another video where I discussed both: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4a9dIR5fc13atk Let me know if you have any questions please.

hello bro, hope you are safe in this pandemic situation. So let me know the working status of xp pen G430S? can we use for teaching online classes?

[@MathMathX]

I haven't tried it but I got a lot of messages from teachers who uses G430s. They are happy with the product. If you dont mind having a small tablet, you can go with it. Big tablets are not really necessary, most models do the job. I also recommend you to check comments on amazon.

I hava a question. I am interested in coding. Therefore, I need to launch a compiler software (such as Dev C++, Codeblock). To summary, I need a computer. And also I need a Graphics tablet. So, What should I do? Should I buy two devices or should I buy a device which has specs (both notebook and Graphics Tablet)?

In addition, I said what I will do on the notebook, since I don't need pc for a game or some powerful engineering software

[@MathMathX]

Hi Izzet, sorry for replying late. Your comment just disappeared among all others I don't know why. Anyways, I thought about buying a Tablet PC before. You are right, it is 2 in 1. But there are couple of downsides. For example, graphics tablet is something like a mouse or a keyboard. it makes your life easier and it is something cheap and you can definitely renew it with a low cost if something happens but it is not same with Tablet PCs. Another thing is most tablet pc pens have batteries. you need to charge it before using it. If you are planning to teach, you need to consider this because you cannot use it with the low battery. it would be disaster if the battery is low in the middle of your lecture right. However there are also advantages of course. So, I just wanted to mention these two things that I found a kind of problem with those devices. On the other hand, there are pretty handy and super useful. Asus, Lenovo Yoga and Microsoft Surface are good quality Tablet PCs and if you need just some software, you can definitely go for it. but I recommend you to have at least i5 7th generation processor, (at least 7 gen) and some SSD.

[@invest_assam]

Please help me in choosing a tablet for teaching purpose. My choices are huion h1161, xp pen deco 01 /Ver 2, deco 02 ,deco pro Can you suggest anything?

[@MathMathX]

Both xppen and huion devices are great. But from your list I only tried deco 01 v2. I also shared my ideas about that one in the video. However I know from people around me that Huion h1161 and deco pros are solid products. And also you should know that They both are bigger than deco 01. If you don't mind having a big tablet, you can definitely go with one of those.

[@parthasarathibiswas9239]

Do the dimensions of pentab matter? Does larger dimensions of pentab better than smaller dimensions pentab.

[@nelsonpesce]

Thanks for your videos. I don't understand one thing. If I will be using OneNote for writing with the tablet. Can we say that the larger tablet the better? I'm evaluating a 12.1" x 8.4" (large) or 8.7 x 5.8" (medium) options ... my question is if with the medium one I will be able to write with small letters or if I should be doing zoom all the time? Thanks!!

[@MathMathX]

It is like using a mobile phone, you still have the same things on the screen but if the screen is bigger, you can write easier however, it doesnt mean we need the biggest size. I don't recommend you to buy anything more than 10x6 bcz it occupies to much space and you need to move your hand a lot, it makes you tired. 8x5 or 10x6 are good (I m talking about the active area not the size of the whole device) less than 8x5 or more than 10x6 also work good. but most online teachers find these sizes most comfortable.

[@simonccf]

hi, thanks for your informative video on writing tablets. I wonder why teaches do not use the Apple Pencil and IPads to teach as these are also great teaching platforms. Could you share if using Apple Pencils are better way?

[@MathMathX]

Hi Simon, There are a few reasons for this. First and the most important one is ipads are expensive. People cant afford to buy. Second, many people already have computers, personal or in the school. So, they can buy an affordable graphics tablet and teach online. There are also other reasons and I will talk about that jn a video.

But if you already have a tablet and a pencil, it is great. I cannot say one way is better but both ways have advantages.

To be honest, I personally didnt try H1161, I m planning to order and try it. However, I know HUION driver from inspiroy dial and recorded a video about that. Both models have their own advantages: huions pen and pen holder is better in terms of build quality. and its driver, pen tablet software, is user friendly. on the other hand, xppen offers a surface protector and i beleive (i m not 100% sure) its nib lifespan is longer.

I like xppen products, they are really good and they have extras in their packages like pen holders, extra nibs etc. If you need a wireless one, medium size xppen Star 05 is one of the cheapest and it works great. If you need a big size Huion inspiroy dial and xppen deco 03 are also good but they are more expensive. Best budget big size tablet is xppen deco 01 v2. It is not wireless. And for small size, wacom intious small is good. But i dont prefer wacom, bcz you can buy better Xppens cheaper.

I'm afraid that my students won't understand what I'm writing because I think I might ended up getting a kindergarten penmanship lol. Thanks in advance. Nice videos by the way. New subscriber here! :)

[@MathMathX]

Hi James, we all experienced the same. It is not super hard to write on the screen but, of course, it needs practice, i strongly recommend you to try it a few days before your lessons start. After you get used to it, you will like it a lot and maybe use it in a regular classroom. Some of my friends did that. Btw thanks for the support, I really need it.

I'm a maths teacher from Nigeria What's the best tablet/pad for me to use Affordable and available in my locations Thanks for your help

[@MathMathX]

I really dont know what is available in Nigeria but if you can order from China, you can get Xppens from aliexpress.com. They are cheap and they have a good quality.

[@estebanmasis7114]

Thank you, this video has been extremely useful.

[@RealSlopeDude]

I use Mobi view by einstruction. It's an older product and can be picked up really cheaply, I think. It works well for me.

[@dcinpa1134]

Since I've never used one of these tablets before this will probably be a silly question for most. If I've already written something, say on a Zoom whiteboard, and want to add something right next to it, how do I know where I'm about to write when I touch the tablet with the pen? Thanks.

[@MathMathX]

I recommend you to watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKmoqqquqNiCnLM It shows the basics. The surface is like the screen, when you touch left top the cursor goes there, when you touch down left it is there, you dont drag it.

[@MathMathX]

Let me know if you have more questions after you watch this.

[@dcinpa1134]

@@MathMathX The video didn't really help. I understand that it basically corresponds to the screen on my computer. But if I want to underline something I've already written how do I know exactly where I'll be writing when I next touch the tablet? It would be nice if I could move the pen around the tablet and see a pointer, then somehow tell the tablet I now want to write where the pointer just was. Does that make any sense? If not, I think I'll just get an Apple pencil and use my iPad. Then I'll be able to see what's already been written. I already own the iPad, so only about $100 cost. Thanks.

[@MathMathX]

Oh I understand your question now. When the pen gets really close to the surface the pointer shows up. You dont need to touch it to see where the pointer is. You can move around and use it as a mouse. When it touchs, you can start writing.

[@dcinpa1134]

Merhabalar, Huion 1060 plus biraz eski bir model. Ayni performansi alırsınız ama teknolojilerde herzaman daha yenisi daha avantajlidir. Eger xppen star05 alacaksaniz da v2 olanını tavsiye ederim. Xppen star 05 v2. Farki uab type c sarj bulunmasi. Daha hizli sarj eder, daha yeni ve kaliteli bir teknoloji.

Teşekkürler bilgi için yeni tablet için çok yararlı oldu. Bende acecad diye bir marka var bu zor zamanlarda gerçekten beni kurtardı ama sanırım ölmek üzere yeni alacağım için cok yardımcı oldunuz saolun

[@visportella]

First of all, thanks a lot for this (and all the other) videos! They are really informative :). I am considering getting a tablet for giving online lectures and talks. The Wacom Intuos Small w/ bluetooth seems nice, but quite small (and the medium size is 100 CAD more expensive...). Do you think the small size is a problem or I shouldn't bother with this? I am also looking at the huion hs611 you pointed, I am just wondering about if the lack of bluetooth is going to be annoying or not.

[@MathMathX]

Thanks for your kind words. Most teachers including my brother :) are using wacom small. The size is not a problem at all. However, more and more teachers are switching to xppen and huion. Bcz they are cheaper and they have extras like pen holder extra replacement nibs and some extra usb cords etc. Wireless is also a personal choice. For example my mouse and my keyboards are also wireless. I really dont like seeing wires around me. Thats why i am saying it is an important factor and also i was using it in my regular classroom. Having a wireless tablet in a regular class is a big plus. If you want to use it only in an online classroom and if you dont mind having cables around you, you can def buy that one. I will be honest with you, huion hs611 is the most cool-looking tablet i have ever seen. And it is super thin. I dont like tablets with the wire but i am planning to buy this one. :)
