[@ForteExpresso]

Yeah, broke design students like me really need a handy device which is good for digital drawing, talking notes at any location. We have to use heavy 3kg laptops which have less battery life and isn't really portable. Is asking for procreate level software from Android too much? Tbh, apple is overpriced overall.

[@usernotfound-h2v]

Most Android phone manufacturers don't really care that much about tablets.Even the more expensive Samsung ones don't get much support compared to an iPad.Google themselves said that they don't really care about tablets when they design new Android versions.It really depends on Xiaomi,Samsung,etc to make the OS run like it should and make things compatible with them.Yeah,iPad is expensive but to be honest,you won't have any problems with it,runs as fast as a phone,has 6 years of updates and you can still get some money for it if you decide to sell it.

[@uncaringbear]

Good comprehensive comparison of the two tablets. I've been a Xiaomi phone user for over 5 years and their phones are excellent for value and performance. Over the years I've drawn on Wacom, N-Trig and now I primarily draw on iPad. The pen feel of the iPad is definitely the best I've experienced in terms of accuracy and sensitivity. That said, I agree with Teoh that all aspects of each tablet should be considered, including OS, apps, screen, support, etc. Personally, I think people over-value pen pressure sensitivity and for many drawing styles, it's an important factor but shouldn't be weighed so heavily. Ultimately, it comes down to personal drawing style and preference. For me, accuracy is more important, which is why I like the iPad and its precision. Seeing more competition from Android tablets for drawing is a great thing. I think if manufacturers can get over that hesitancy about being price competitive with the base iPad, they would enjoy more success. As it stands, where I live, the iPad is the best value by a large margin when compared to Samsung and Xiaomi, so given its excellent performance and availability of higher end apps, it's a no-brainer to go with Apple.

In procreate you will struggle. & although I do all my drawings in CSP , procreate has virtually no lag as opposed to every other software. So It becomes necessary for some artworks. Once you really deep dive into details you'll know how much that tapering affects drawing. Nothing till date has come close to Apple Pencil I'm sorry.

[@mistermastermind528]

@@RandomUser-tj3mg no one's forcing them. It's a matter of preference. And "locking" yourself is a gradual process over years of choosing which devices work for you. If you started with a MacBook and ipod, for example, you might've wanted to go for an iphone due to the ease of use across the other devices. As years go by, you've gotten comfortable with the ecosystem. So with tablets, the preference is almost always towards the iPad. As for me, I've been accustomed to Windows. So Android became a conscious decision for phones (also, Apple prices are just too much). But I'd consider an iPad because it still is the best tablet so far but with budget, I might end up with the Xiaomi Pad 5.

In that case I should stick with Medibang Paint Pro since it's the app that will show the actual un-configured un-adjusted performance of the pen.

PLEASE HELPP!! in my country xiaomi pad 5 and s6 lite are the same price. iam a student and i just started to learn to draw , which one should i buy?

[@teohontech7141]

Xiaomi pen performance is not as good as S Pen but as a tablet overall, Xiaomi just a much better tablet and that's the one I'll recommend.

Just a question: Does the apple stylus work with Xiaomi pad 5?

[@teohontech7141]

No

[@asrio5057]

In my opinion, invest your hard earned money on apple iPad for consistency and reliability. I owned a xiaomi device, but used a custom rom because of how buggy is MIUI. *And not all user's are like me who can flash and use a custom rom. Everytime MIUI released an update, instead of fixing issues they add more and more problems. ADS. These are also annoying. Maybe for now it's not present, but in the future they will also implement it on their tablets. Also that lag on pen is also a deal breaker. Especially if you're really gonna focus on drawing. Displays are good on both tablets, pad 5 have HDR support and iPad 9th gen have TRUE TONE. For sound quality pad 5 clearly wins, but iPad 9 have HEADPHONE JACK😏 But for the overall value it's the iPad 9 for me still in 2022. An all rounder. (a students perspective)

I used the xiaomi smart pen for less than 2 months and the tip of the pen got broken while taking notes, and the company is not even offering repair and they just simply told me to buy a new one

Hi Teoh. May i ask? in drawing, the difference between 60hz and 120hz does it feel a big difference? Is the difference so minor to feel? May I ask for your recommendation of apps for drawing for kids 5 year olds. Is the app concept easy for kids to use? Very nice to watch & listen your review, thank you!

[@teohontech7141]

120 vs 60Hz is noticeable difference. But not having 120Hz is not a big deal. Concepts, Tayasui Sketches are easy to use for 5 year olds.

[@izoyt]

I would put my experience wit ipad, pencil, andorid etc: Ios aka apple gizmos have nice hardware, but file management etc is realy shait. They probably put "patents" on active pencil "technology" and embargo on most used drawing/editing apps partners to be exclusive in ios only. This is then only thing that keep therir advantage in tablet world. Otherwise, android is way better in general work, imo. They only need to somehow re-rout apple's draconian "patent" lawyers and put app partners on tandoori trail (there are millions of users, really don't understand why they don't want money from them, lol)

Hello, I recently started watching you and really enjoy your videos. I have a question about Xiaomi pad 5 and its stylus. I am considering this tablet for my self for the university and for casual drawing. Furthermore, I can get this tablet for a good price and really debating about purchasing it. As you sad in your video, the stylus is good enough but has some issues in different apps. Is it really worth it to buy this tablet for the purpose of occasional drawing? Thank you in advance 🙂

[@teohontech7141]

For casual drawing it is really worth the money

[@vitalivardanidze503]

@@teohontech7141 the only concern for me are wobbly lines that I notice compared to other Android tablets. I recently tried iPad and Apple pencil and really liked it, but can not afford. Samsung tab s7 was also good but it is also too expensive. One of the options is to buy Xiaomi pad 5 or wait till S7 price drops after Tab s8 announcement.

[@teohyc]

@@vitalivardanidze503 Or consider Samsung Tab S7 FE. Line quality from the Xiaomi still good for casual drawing. If you use Clip Studio (subscription app) which can adjust pressure curve, drawing performance is quite good, almost comparable to Samsung.

[@vitalivardanidze503]

@@teohyc thank you for the suggestion

[@adamc.2230]

@@vitalivardanidze503 it really depends on how you draw and how fast your strokes are. i usually use sketchbook pro which easily solves those wobbles. i don't own an ipad but based on positive reviews i have a rough idea how much better and more natural the line strokes are compared to android. the only issue i have with apple products is i 'drag and drop' files all the time, and android to windows is literally just plug and play. xiaomi pad 5 is the best bang for the back as of the moment. the price range of this tab is on par with a refurbished samsung s6, and xiaomi pad is far more powerful.

I am wondering what the longevity of the Xiaomi is, compared to iPad. Would someone still be using Xiaomi in 5 years?... With current updates?

[@teohontech7141]

Not sure how many OS updates Xiaomi will get. It's a great tablet now. As for iPad, it's sold with outdated specs today and will continue to get updates for a longer time.

[@jayvansickle7607]

@@teohontech7141 definitely agree that apple holds back on the base iPad. Reliability and durability also factor into the worth of something.... So, I'll be interested see how all Xiaomi (and other non main stream) products hold up in the future. Them, and Realme make some really good speced phones as well. I think a large number of consumers are hesitant because of the lack of long term reputation.
