THE CHEAPEST SCREEN TABLET - GAOMON PD1161 REVIEW

[@LucasPeinador]

[@Wolf-on-4rs]

There is a S630 one for 33 dollars

[@mrsbasia122]

Great review, it was very fair in showing both the pros and cons of a drawing tablet. I had no idea what a parallax effect was before I watched your video, so it was very informative for me. :)

[@LucasPeinador]

Glad it was helpful!

[@SocksworthRiffs]

Got one open box for 100 bucks on Amazon from a birthday gift card, best decision I made. I did notice the downsides toy mentioned someone's but I found that it was a good overall tradeoff, more or less. I don't have the money to get more expensive tablets yet, and I'm not professional by any means. I'll eventually upgrade but actually using it and upgrading from a non screen tablet was life changing

[@didi7074]

Hi, I'm thinking abou getting the open box too, how did your table arrive? Did it come in the original box with all the accessories? Did it have many scratches? Did you have the same problems? This would be my first screen tablet but I'm debating whether to get the open box Gaomon pd1161 or the Xp-pen artist 12 or Huion kamvas pro 12 for 80-100 euros more. I'm broke too lol

[@SocksworthRiffs]

@@didi7074 only thing mine didn't come with was the glove and matte feel screen protector, but everything else was good to go! Works great, I'm still using it

[@didi7074]

@@SocksworthRiffs I already have a glove so no problem! I'm just worried about the matte screen protector because then there's nothing to protect the screen? And without it it's glossy and slippery :/

[@SocksworthRiffs]

@@didi7074 yeah unfortunately it is out of the box :( but the bonus is that your can buy them on Amazon still (the screen protectors)

[@didi7074]

@@SocksworthRiffs Thanks! I think I will go with the Gaomon pd1161 then! It's my first screen tablet so I don't need something super fancy

[@BronzeOrwin]

You may be calibrating it wrong. While calibrating you have to keep your head in the spot it would be while actually drawing. It's natural to want to move your head directly above each calibration point, but that would obviously make the calibration askew.

[@dreamytears5745]

recently just bought it, AMAZING !

Hope you are enjoying it!

Hi! Very great review. I'm very tempted to get this one as my first display tablet, I've been using an ipad so far so I'm used to the small size, so the small screen aside, do you think I should go with this one, or a huion?

[@LucasPeinador]

Well I haven’t try the Huion display, but if you don’t have a problem with what I say in the video... than of course this is a good option 🙂

[@sociallyresponsiblexenomor7608]

I had the GAOMON PD1560 and I didn't like it tbh. I gave it away. These days I use a huion HS610 without a screen, I really love the surface of it. Drawing on glass, with that seperation and just I dunno it feels even more unnatural than a screenless tablet does for me. Also, when drawing on a screen, I have an ipad pro and procreate, it's an awesome experience but I don't recommend it for very high resolution work.

[@LucasPeinador]

Thank you for sharing 🙂 I can also support you on Huion it is a good brand

[@amritaarun5893]

Hi!! I love ur channel and videos, they’re all super helpful!!

Hi Amrita!! thank you very much! 🙏

[@localsimp6293]

I’m getting my first job in a couple of days, and I’m looking to save for my own tablet. I’ll do some more research, this is currently on my consideration list. My other is xp-pen 13.3 or whatever it is.

[@LucasPeinador]

Congrats on a new job! Yes I think these are really good options.

[@ziana9513]

Same. Just got my first job too and my first pay, and also considering to buy this or an xp-pen artist 12/13.3. It's hard though since I'm too scared to buy from other countries so my options are very limited.

[@rainbow4352]

I think Xp pen artist 13.3 pro is better And ur artwork looks so good and more expressive.

[@LucasPeinador]

Hello Rainbows, my friend.Thank you for your comment. Glad you like it🙂 I haven’t tried Xp pen, but I’ve heard good things about it 😁

[@saery4523]

A year later but…. What about the others? Like the Xp pen artist 15.6

[@kaitlyn2883]

I absolutely love your personality! You made me LOL! I was considering this one, but I dont think i'll like how small it is. Thank you!

[@amira921]

Do you have a video or tutorial on the way you do your line art? because that's so clean!

[@LucasPeinador]

Yes I do. It is called: How to ink digital art. Hope you find it useful.

[@ladifrogger7422]

question: does it need a computer or phone to work or is is possible to use it without connecting either of those?

[@LucasPeinador]

It definitely needs a computer. It doesn't work all by it self.

[@ladifrogger7422]

@@LucasPeinador aw. do you know of any that dont need computer or phone?

Was the screen on this tablet fully laminated? If not, that would explain the parallax problem...

[@LucasPeinador]

Thank you for the comment 🙂

i got the tablet today my only complain is how small it is it's definetly not made for big drawings.

Hi so is it still working well? I want to get one as my first screen tablet

[@bluelves2292]

Great job on this it really helped me with my new tablet but can you describe the tool more? Thanks Lucas!

[@LucasPeinador]

Sorry I don’t know what else to tell you. The video is exactly about that😉

[@aehrlynn]

Thank you for mentioning the drivers working. The current tablet I'm using atm was doing great until suddenly the driver no longer, worked and I've searched and attempted many times to fix it but I couldn't get it to connect 😅

[@LucasPeinador]

Glad I could help :)

[@someguy752]

Is it basically just a second monitor? And can you do something else on the 1st monitor while you're drawing on the tablet?

[@LucasPeinador]

I am sorry I don’t understand what exactly are u asking

[@someguy752]

@@LucasPeinador does the tablet act like a second monitor, independent of the main monitor or is the tablet a copy of the main screen?

[@dancingtoday]

@@someguy752 It's a copy of the main screen with pen sensitive surface, which you can draw on.I just ordered one and it does say pretty clearly on the aliexpress listing that you can use it both ways, as a duplicate or showing different things. I guess if you have a good pc you could let a movie playing on the main monitor while using this for photoshop, I will try when I get it

[@Jakiyyyyy]

Get the Huion Kamvas 12 instead.

[@takarahayashi4124]

the part about the drawing position without a stand, it makes me wonder if you ever drawn traditionally on a sketch book lol.

[@lizzykang3226]

maybe he does. i draw traditionally on a sketchbook every day (i alternate between my sketchbook and display tablet during the day) but i dont want drawing distortions and i cannot crane my neck because it will cause pain, so i have a laptop stand that i put my notebook on when i draw. it keeps the notebook in the right position, which is parallel to my face just like he said

[@cryjasper7667]

The baseline for traditional art is literally an easel lol (thats even disregarding how 98% of pro traditional artists have angled tables which I forget what are called: from Disney animators to comic artists) Drawing on a completely flat surface creates distortions and is very uncomfortable for prolonged periods of time

[@biowbe4522]

?? People sometimes still uses stand for traditional drawing, a lot of industries also usess it. what are you on about.

[@ephie_barrow]

Beautiful painting ❤️

[@LucasPeinador]

Thank you very much 😁

[@ANGEL-fg4hv]

It sucks in clip art studio. The pen pressure doesn't work and it's driving me nuts.

[@LucasPeinador]

Ohh really? Sorry to hear that.

[@richbailey819]

Been struggling with the parallax on mine. Tried to fiddle with the calibration but the driver kept crashing. Good drivers would help these cheap tablets tremendously.

[@mcsavi1538]

Thx I didn’t know about the parallax i just thought it’s was offset.

[@LucasPeinador]

[@marenacain]

Mine came and the screen was horrendous quality and it was borderline unusable. I'm not sure if it was because I ordered off Amazon and got a fake or if gaomon is just bad.

[@LucasPeinador]

Oh, that is terrible. I hope you could get a replacement or a refund

[@cindyisnotme]

i started with Huion inspiroy h320m, it can be connected with an android too. its about P2000+ (Philippine peso) idk how much for the us dollar so...:)

[@sociallyresponsiblexenomor7608]

Huion if you want a screenless one tbh. It's a great starting point. "but I need a screen cause I am used to drawing on paper" you really don't you can learn to use a screenless tablet within a week or two tops. Feng Zhu, runs one of the most famous art schools in the world; and has worked for decades almost entirely without ever using screen tablets except when they were all he had been provided, so if they are good enough for him they can work for anyone. Just saying that because some folks feel the need to spend like hundreds or even thousands on a tablet when just starting- but tablets don't always last forever if you are gonna wear one out learning, I suggest a cheap tablet. Think in terms of study tablet, and career tablet imo.

[@chillbro2275]

I wouldn't have anticipated that drawings could be off if you don't use a stand.

[@LucasPeinador]

yep, it happens all the time

Buy an iPad Pro it’s very professionally

It is the best option to have an iPad than, because then you don’t need the computer and you can use procreate or some other painting app for the iPad🙂
