The Best Android Tablet for Drawing

[@TadpoleArtz]

It’s good to see competition from android, it’s been the iPad that’s been the shining star, excited to see android compete

[@Fr0stbite1801]

Honestly, procreate is carrying the ipad hard. Even CSP runs better on ipad from what I heard. If procreate were on android I'd get a galaxy ultra, no questions asked.

[@Monkvr238]

Since 2019 atleast itsbeen the same really. It does not matter what route you go with at all.

[@SwordfighterRed]

@@Fr0stbite1801 There _is_ HiPaint, mind, but, they've gotten kinda scummy with their ad updates as of late. There really does need to be something good in the Android art space as far as software's concerned. Drawpile's Android version is okay, in some ways the best Android art app, but it's still not touch-centric enough, same with Krita. There's Infinite Painter and Designer, which are good. There really needs to be a good animation and/or modeling app. Flipaclip went subscription route and I'm not sure if there's anything comparable.

[@Susspect69]

S9 outperforms iPad in almost every aspect ...

[@TadpoleArtz]

@@Fr0stbite1801 1000% agree. I only purchased my iPad for procreate and now I use Procreate Dreams as well. I’m stuck With the iPad lol. I’m pretty sure Apple is paying procreate to keep it exclusive to the Apple App Store and that’s probably how they aren’t charging subscriptions too. But if procreate moved to android we would for sure see a boom in high quality android tablets fly off shelves

[@sadev101]

im on the s6 lite original version still. and it may not be a race monster but it works. and the draawing on it is fabulous. so even the first gen s6 lite is great for artists

Hey, Brad! Your reviews are the reason why I've made great decisions when it comes to drawing hardware. I've been following you since you uploaded the Kamvas 13 2020 review, that was my first ever screen tablet. Then switched to an iPad 9th gen, iPad air 4, and right now, I've reached peak drawing experience. I traded my iPad air 4 for a Galaxy Tab S8+. Again, your reviews made me switch, all your critiques are spot on, and I love that! Thanks for the great content, I can't wait to see with what you come up in the future!! Ps: pairing the Tab S8+ with the Wacom One Pen is the best drawinr experience I've ever had. Thank you, Brad! ❤

[@MythicPalette]

Big fan of Samsung tablets, myself. I have been using a Tab S9 Ultra for about 3 months now. I, personally, haven't seen any wearing down of my S-Pen with around 4-6 hours of daily use. I will say that the biggest downside I have found to using Samsung tablets is they don't directly sell replacement nibs so you have to find them from a third party reseller and a lot of them aren't good. If you get the Creator Edition pen, it comes with extra nibs but then it has a hard tip and doesn't feel as good to draw with without a matte protector. Edit: 2 months later, the tip has, in fact, worn out. I was unable to find a replacement that had the rubber tip. Ended up buying a titanium tip and paperlike protector.

[@heynim342]

Pro tip: you can buy a replacement pen for the Wacom One 13" series display tablets, they work really great on Galaxy Tabs and each box comes with 5 extra nibs. Me & a few pals actually prefer this to the Samsung options since it's nicer to hold and cheaper than the Creator pen.

[@MythicPalette]

I would totally buy an XP pen tablet if they did two things. A larger screen, I just like being able to move my hand with my elbow more than my wrist. and the big one, if they add a feature where you plug your tablet into your PC and it's just a drawing tablet.

[@SimonBauer7]

you can with a third party Software called superdisplay.

[@lukecsuarezartistry8568]

The only factor that's keeping the Ipad on top for digital artists is the fact that it has Procreate, port procreate over to android and it will be on top.

[@squidsbizarreadventure]

It's funny because it's true for most, but on the other hand you have people like me who is watching this video because I can't stand Procreate's interface and Apple's ecosystem

[@thecoffeesloth]

The form factor of the XP Magic Drawing Pad (should just be XP-Pad) is great but the cursor misalignment and not supporting tilt is a no-no for me. Hope their next offering is better

I've been using my S8 Ultra for a good bit, and while I absolutely love the thing, I still like to keep an eye on other options available. Hopefully, Huion can pick up their game a bit to give a better challenge to Samsung, but XP-Pen did a decent job!

[@drinkswatere]

I’m on the same device. Really great experience. Spen isn’t really my style but you got plenty of options and at least it’s free.

[@WWarped1]

I've been using the XP-Pen Magic Drawing Pad for a few days, and it's wonderful. I adore it. Picked it up for £400, and had to wait for it to ship from China to the UK. Thought about Samsung, but the bloat annoys me. I've had too many issues with their tech previously. I am back to loving drawing. I do wish XP-Pen or a third party would sell a decent travel case/wallet for the Magic Drawing Pad. Hopefully they will soon.

[@Cacalotlraven]

I have a limited budget as a father of 4 and teacher's salary, so I opted for a Lenovo P12 tablet and was surprised at how well it responds. The android environment takes some getting used to. But I love the fact that I can get what I need in terms of professional drawing software at a fraction of the cost. (I love apple tech but just can't afford it)

[@serialsucide1705]

I recently bought Lenovo Tab P11 Pro gen. 2 (terrible name) and it is great. 2K resolution, 11", OLED display, 8Gb RAM for 300$. The pen has some imperfections, a bit wobble, but for that price with included pen, it's great

[@carlosemiralonso7997]

Release a draw video or tell us your experience at drawing. Cool tech!

[@Montai]

Id go with samsung 100% since the wacom one pens work with it. Add a matte screen protector for more tooth.

[@julietttthehooman1635]

Question: Do I need to connect the wacom pen to the tablet somehow or how will I be able to use it, since its made for wacom products? I have wacom drawing tablet (without screen) and the pen automatically connects to my computer when the tablet is on. But if I buy just a pen, how will the pen know to connect? (As you see I'm pretty beginner with these things😅)

[@tbray]

I'm always disappointed when I hear the Huion tablet is a bit rough around the edges, but thrilled that there's now an XP Pen tablet - it's very conflicting. I had the 9+ FE and loved it, but had to return it when I lost my job. Now that I'm working again, I have to now decide between the XP Pen and the Galaxy...I wasn't really sure which one to get, but you've at least given me a lot to think about.

[@carlosemiralonso7997]

Go for samsung and/or wait for Xp-pen to solution all the disadvantages tru drivers (can be years to make it).

[@kookesstuff]

Samsung.

[@franciscodetonne4797]

Samsung still reigns until the XP-Pen tablets get better.

[@fbiguy5269]

I would also say Samsung if you want a android tablet. I have a xp-pen display tablet which still works after 3 years of use. But it seems that their android tablets still need some time to get good.

[@SN_Narra]

XPPen already released a new update allowing us to calibrate the pen offset.

[@matslarsson5988]

Still using my tab s7+. Highly recommended and you can probably find a pretty good deal on it.

[@linuxzero7283]

While it's nice to have other options, this is going to be a tough fight for XP and Huion. It would be different if Samsung just had one or two devices, but they've got all of the bases covered with low, mid, and high-end devices.

[@carlosemiralonso7997]

True, samsung for tablets, Xp-pen and Huion for pen displays (need pc).

[@saintangel1996blur]

Samsung made it's tablets compatible with more pen stylus like wacom one and staedtler, for when you lost your pen you have options

[@ToddDolce]

Note to Huion, XP Pen and the other Chinese Graphics Tablet/Display Mfrs: STOP with the Pen Pressure focus!!!!!!! Artists want a pen with NO WOBBLE, Wacom Powered and a screen with some texture!!!!! DO THAT!!!! OK?,.....Just DO THAT for us. Thank you!

[@Jivi_Galaxy]

Xp pen isn't Chinese.

[@reygood1]

Yup. I bought the Samsung Galaxy Tab s9 FE with no regret. I bought couple of drawings apps to start with. The only reason I will buy an Ipad pro is because of the Procreate app.

[@shiny2575]

I am so happy theres more real competition asides the ipad. The only thing apple does better than the rest is having procreate, and they charge twice as much as anyone else

[@MaheerKibria]

I feel like for $499 The XP-Pen makes the the S Tab9FE seem like a no-brainer. It's $449 and has a better processor meaning you can branch out. The alignment is very good from what I remember so you don't have that offset. A screen protector is easy enough to apply. Adding that and replacing the nibs with plastic nibs is still cheaper than a new XP pen. Add on top of it that you are guaranteed 4 years of OS and 5 years of Security updates and it seems like a no-brainer. If XP pen adds a calibration app or settings panel I can see it going either way but still tilted in Samsung's favor because of the OS update support. But right now you can fix the Samsung's drawing feel. You can't fix the XP-Pen.

[@petermikus2363]

Apparently you can adjust the calibration for the pen on the Magic tab after an Update or something like that

[@kirby260b3]

Another cool thing about samsung dex is that if you have a phone with it and connect a usb c to hdmi adapter you can connect artist 10 and 12 drawing tablet and it will recognize the tablet as a monitor and let you draw on it and navigate on a touchscreen pad from your phone!

[@HikaruNoIkaros]

You should do a review on galaxy tab s9 with the wacom one pen

[@benjamina6915]

I still like my good old Lenovo P11 Plus with Lenovo Active Pen 3 (Wacom AES 2 pen), it's still running fast, probably more snappy than that Huion one. The pen is without a doubt better than the Huion one, but not as good as the XP-Pen and Samsung Pen, though not far behind. That XP-Pen Magic Pad is very tempting. I just wish it had 4Gb more RAM inside, that would make it more future proof.

[@seabedrock]

Honestly would love to get any android tablet if it weren't for procreate and procreate dreams. And it's never going to release on android in the near future.

[@MilkoMilkovicz]

I think that Samsung Galaxy Tab s7 is also good enough.

[@every1lovesdavid]

Can't wait for my xp-pen tablet to arrive and start Brad's drawing school.

[@samaelrace]

Hello. I would like to ask what are your impressions of using the xp-pen tablet? (Sorry for any mistakes, English is not my native language)

[@every1lovesdavid]

@@samaelrace mixed feelings. It has great battery life, it's much lighter, has a nicer texture and more comfortable to use than my iPad pro. It also performs better in daylight conditions due to anti-glare finish. I managed to get a sturdy stick on kickstand that has made it a very portable and convenient drawing tool. On the negative side: the pen is misaligned with the cursor so everyone is a few pixels off. My favourite drawing app infinite painter does not have any way to correct this. Ibis paint does have a cursor offset feature which solves this but the interface and brushes are not as good. I spent a lot of time manually making my own brushes and even now cannot reproduce the exact brushes I liked in other apps. It is also very difficult to get accessories such as cases, as no 3rd party is supporting it. The performance is generally very good but it struggles to play hi-res video. 4k stutters or stops completely. It can just about manage 1440p the screens native resolution. Overall it is good value for money but probably not as good as a Samsung or iPad pro despite the superior pen.

[@MichaelClaridaArts]

Brad...did you see you can adjust the offset of the pen in clip studio on the Xppen unit? Makes a bit of difference when drawing.

[@petermikus2363]

One thing to mention is that when the S9FE goes on sale it can go down to about 350 so look out of that.

[@NopeNaw]

I've been looking for an android tablet that doesn't have that 16:9 screen ratio (Want a tablet that I can lug around for drawing, but primarily to read books and comics on). It's the one thing I think Apple got right with the iPad. Having a less "screen" like ratio makes it feel better whether you're holding it landscape or portrait style, both from a viewing perspective as well as an ergonomic perspective. So, the XP Pen one is very appealing to me, but the pen being off, even by a little, would probably drive me insane. I have a samsung phone and a 360 galaxy book, so I know that the pen is REALLY good.

[@whitneydorcelus]

[@cammiluna]

A bonus point of the Samsung tablets is that they're compatible with Wacom One, Remarkable, and other EMR E-Readers. They all have the same pressure levels and smooth drawing, but have slightly different initial activation force levels. If I had the money, i would buy both the XP-Pen and Huion tablets to support those companies making androidsso they can make more androids. A sad truth with companies entering the android sphere is that those first devices will only support one android upgrade and then it's obsolete a year later. Anyone remember the Lenovo Yogabook first gen? yeah. I don't have any confidence that XP-Pen or Huion would do much better with OS updates or if their customer support teams would be able to resolve problemns because Lenovo support sure threw their hands up in the air with that Yogabook first gen, but I do have hope! But even if these two don't get more than one update, it might be easy to just mod a custom OS that stays patched for much longer. I really did try to like my Galaxy S7, but the screen was too narrow, Samsung's Android software is annoying, and when not using the device for drawing, I dislike how trying to run apps like twitter and such just run like giant phone versions instead of having a landscape-friendly tablet design. Maybe the 9 FE might work better for me, but I'm just sick of samsung android at this point. I love my Galaxy Book 360, on the other hand, but for android, I'll deal with the XPPen Pen offset!

I bought the XP pen because it was on sale for $655 AUD $427 USD. I would have gone Samsung but in Australia it’s at least 1k at most reputable places. Thanks for the round up. I wanted to know does the XP pen for their main drawing screens have the tilt function work on the Magic Pen? Or is it the screen that doesn’t have the tilt ability? Not a deal breaker as I don’t generally tilt.

[@a2fotografia]

From the reviews I've been watching I think this is the only device where tilt is not working, I'm not sure if the blame lies on the screen or on the pen. All other XP-Pen devices have tilt working. I've heard a rumour that XP-Pen will work on a firmware or something to try and fix this problem.

[@Alfadrottning86]

having studied and still doing some non professional artwork (cause i became a teacher and not an artist or designer) - i find the samsung tab s8/9 ultra "near" perfect for drawing .. but i would not seriously draw on them. Personally, i have the Wacom Cintiq, which is in a different league to either any android or apple tablet. Those are just toys in the end. However, since Samsung does use the wacom drawing pen, there is more familiarity for me .. but the real professional wacom drawing pen is much better than the little stick you get from Samsung (not to mention the even tinier stick in the phone)

[@blaiddfumbler]

imo if you want to get a good drawing tablet for the same price as a canvas slate 10, go with an iPad air 4, it's like 250 rn and you can get a used apple pencil for around 80 USD. It's a really good drawing experience, the only downside is that it's not android, and therefore you can't download apks or anything of the sort.

[@netvisionz]

Huion did copy the 16k levels of pressure with their new 19 and 27 inch pro displays and finally added an eraser tip to the pen, so they will probably add it to their next android tablet.

[@litjellyfish]

Not sure with the erasor. Do other tablets pens have erasors with their thin body form factor? I honestly have not used the erasor for 15 years on desktop but maybe it’s handy when you are without keyboard. Still if the pen have two buttons it’s usually quicker to use one pen to switch to eraser than flipping the pen itself

[@netvisionz]

@@litjellyfish There are no 19 or 27 inch tablets on the market. Pen Displays are for desktop. Also how can it be quicker to fiddle with a button instead of just turning the pen over and erase something which is natural to humans since we were taught to use erasers on pencils in elementary school?

[@litjellyfish]

@@netvisionz sorry I don’t get what you mean with the different sizes. I just asked if any other tablets (regardless of size) had an erasor. Apple Pencil who is the most popular drawing tablet still do not have it. Wacom’s ditched their erasor in their lower product line. How it can be quicker? Well because it is faster pure well physically. It’s less motion less movement = it takes less time to click a button than flip a pen , also it’s not fiddly. as you say flipping the pen to erase it’s a learned thing = it’s not natural in any way. Functions just as we learn to use a mouse and tap a screen. Also as the erasor is a lot thicker it covers often the point to erase making it less precise. Don’t you find it hard to be precise when erasing fine lines with to end of say a Wacom pro pen compared to just switch to the erase tool and use the normal fine tipped tip for more control erasing ?

[@netvisionz]

@@litjellyfishI think you misunderstood. XP-Pen introduced 16 levels of pressure with their X3 Pen technology a few years ago. Their recent android tablet uses the same pen technology from their pen displays which have eraser tips. Their tablet is one featured in the video. Huion has just introduced Pentech 4.0 with eraser tip to their Kamvas Pro 19 and 27 pen displays. My comment was that based on that they will more than likely introduce support for their new pen technology to their next Android tablet. I hope this clears things up.

[@litjellyfish]

@@netvisionz ah thank you. And yes I totally misunderstood you 😅 I tough you mean that they would be offering pens with eraser tip for future possible tablet line. Which for I found odd as from a drawing pov I feel it adds litttle value. For more pure note taking (remarkable 2 has an erasor) it makes more sense for me as the target group are not really artists. And for them as you say are used to just flip the pen. But I we compare with artists used to pen-displays (with often shortcut keys etc) they are more used to just quickly toggle to eras or function instead of flipping the pen. Thanks for clarifying 💚

Thanks for the great video! I have been thinking for a long time about buying the XP Pen Magic Drawing Pad or the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE. I tried the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE at an electronics store and sometimes I could not draw lines well in clip studio. and The tablet misidentified my hand as a pen and drew extra lines.. Is this because I am not familiar with tablets? Are there any Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE users having the same problem?

[@kelvinchuks8885]

Nice compare Brad, but I still think the Samsung FE line is the sweet stop

Who need camera on drawing tablet, the os just need to be android, and fully working for drawing, that's what i want

[@ossi2635]

A rear camera is good for taking reference pictures. Front camera ... idk... ... & windows would be better...

[@KushKillz]

Exactly, please let me know if you found 1 youre satisfied with, without the unnecessary camera etc.

[@ManvmgTwo]

@@KushKillz I doing my research, huawei matepad 11.5 s was the best and perfect android tablet for 2024.

8:31 38° is crazy the outside must be cooking

[@jubaidahmed8124]

Got the s9 fe for 250$ in sale. It’s on its way, i hope ive made the right choice 😅

[@infiniteblessings6793]

Where you find that great deal?

[@taupangnang1245]

Hi Brad!! I kind of curious, can we connect the xppen magic pad to xppen pen display pro artist 14/16/22? 😂😂😂

[@roldanh9]

I have a 12 year old that is an excellent artist. What do you think about the Galaxy A9?

[@josephbach1]

I still use the wacom 1300 tablet i cant use the software anymore and wacom abandon it sadly. My ipad us the sane age still works and git updated siftware

[@FrostOni]

What about Xiaomi Pad 6? I was thinking of getting that one...

[@ashhadhussain1491]

Yep it's the best in its price range I'll say (3 month user)

[@carpediem335]

​@@ashhadhussain1491help pls how about xiaomi pad se for clip studio paint,krita?

[@Nobody111]

I've already seen this a few weeks ago. How come is published today?

[@user-wd3jy6qn9r]

Hey Brad ! Thanks to you now I know that the XpPen is definitely for me ,in making my animation , but i got a question if this tablet could also be used for making 3D models to??

[@dave.chk.youtube]

I bought an "old" tab s8 for less than an s9 fe, and it is really good, i traded the ip rating for a better cpu basically

[@thebradcolbow]

Yeah, if you can find one that's definitely the way to go, better processor AND screen.

[@dave.chk.youtube]

​@@thebradcolbow thanks! :D btw you should try super display (both via cable and wifi) as a way to use an android tablet as a display with touch and pen sensitivity for pc. It's *immensly* better than the out of the box samsung one, it costs few bucks but it's just one time and it's basically real time. It really is good.

[@MikePowerUp]

bro where is your affiliate links????

[@Kaitopia_]

Do Samsung tablets have a hover function to check the size and location of the brush before actually drawing?

[@Ifqsfbrr]

Can any andriod tablets be used for digital drawing? Or should I just buy tablets with pen?

[@mikewade99]

Waiting for the Huion by 19 Pro review it looks promising 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@pigstain7531]

Can you review samsung tab A9 Plus for drawing next please? It has SD 8 gig ram 128gig storage for about $200 i think

[@asophiecreugnet]

What tablet would you recommend for architects?

[@pinkyxyx8336]

1 question.. i have a samsung galaxy tab A8 but i cant find a pen.. i use the app clip stuido paint and idk if i make a bad choice with the galaxy tab A8..

[@hilbertotrujillo9612]

HI Brad what is the software used for drawing and painting? with reference to the Samsung tablet you featured.

[@animo401]

we dont include Xiaomi and Huawei in this list ?

[@nyx6889]

Between an x pen innovator and Samsung tab s9 fe+, which one would you recommend?

[@Oozaru85]

I don't need an android drawing tablet. I need a drawing tablet with Windows on it so I can use the same software I use on my PC. Just pocket size. That would be great. Also, 500 bucks for the XP-Pen? I can get the 10. gen iPad (2022) for 400. So why would I want to buy the XP-Pen instead?

[@zocergonzalez911]

Can I use the xppen tablet with some notepad app as well?

[@MazingKaiser]

How's about Huawei new MatePad ?

[@NinetyRalph]

Samsung looks cool

[@anetkrausova]

I think i'm here to talk bout the harsh truths of s6 Lite (got the 2022 version but the issues still gotta stay i strongly believe)... Get something bit stronger.. S9FE, or non FE, just maybe not s6... I bought it because i wanted to try smth portable and as a student at the time (last year) i couldn't rly afford ipad or the S8 which was at the top of the line at the time, so i opted for s6 Lite and now i kinda regret it.. between the weaker CPU and just 4gigs of ram, it's wasted money if you want to work bigger and with more layers (though, the issue is not rly layers, but textured layers)... The tablet simply struggles loading and moving with canvases more than 2k x 2k with stuff on the layers... So if you need many layers with sketches, and refining, get something stronger... I loce the feel of samsung tablets with the pen even though it is on the smaller side and it works great, just the S6Lite is not as strong for more work than sketching and more simple illustrations or being forced to work on smaller scale or with less layers in CSP, krita or Infinite Painter

[@lindatrinh1771]

Could you please let me know what softwares you use for drawing on android?
