XP-Pen Artist 12 Pro | Tablet Review and Unboxing!

[@csmith508]

My wife bought this for me for Christmas...Love using it with Sketchbook Pro....

[@sherfj]

Does it still work? have you had any issues so far?

[@GoobyBean]

I have an iPad Pro 10.5 and I draw on it but these past days I’ve been thinking about getting this tablet, thank you for the amazing art at the end it was beautiful

[@MaxineVee]

I have the same iPad as you! :) I'm very used to its portability which is why I use the iPad 80% of the time when I do personal work but if I need to do larger pieces with more layers, I take it to Photoshop! So that's something to consider as well if you're thinking about buying the tablet! Thanks for watching! :)

[@deelinaah]

Great review, now I'm sure to get this display tablet.

[@MaxineVee]

Thank you1 I'm glad it was useful :)!

[@Jwrry1]

I feel xp pen can someday become a good competitor against wacom.

[@MaxineVee]

Jwrry 1 I agree! This is a really good tablet for its attractive price as well!

[@Darkl0ud_Productions]

Someday? For the price this absolutely does compete with Wacom. I'm only trying to figure out if I want the 12 inch model or 13.3

[@MaxineVee]

@@Darkl0ud_Productions If you're used to working in larger paintings, I'd say definitely get the 13.3" model!

[@shits_and_giggles177]

@@Darkl0ud_Productions i'll buy the 13.3 pro. I think the 12 pro is too small and the artist 15.6 pro is to big for me,so I will buy the 13.3pro. As soon as I get enought money! ^^

[@inkywinki2254]

@@shits_and_giggles177 Hey! Have you bought it yet??

[@m.yvette7344]

This was an amazing review, I especially appreciated how you showed the pen gliding across the screen in real-time. For sure, you secured my wishes on purchasing this tablet! Thank you so much and you have done an amazing job with that piece of art!! Keep up the great work :>

[@ajanitaylor5318]

You're the best left handed drawer I've ever seen!!!

[@MaxineVee]

Thank you so much!

[@lengovanatalia]

Ah yes, right handed cupboards are the norm but left handed drawers are unusual. Artist is the term lol but yeah i agree

[@magdalenaswiatczak5696]

Yeah I agree I'm right handed and I can draw barely 2% of what she does. is there any courses and tutorials anyone can recommend?

[@hageneterdraws3958]

@@magdalenaswiatczak5696 if you have insta gram I'll show you

[@OphismEdits]

@Ajani Taylor why does it matter if she's left handed or not to make her good? I never understood why people care so much about what hand someone uses (this is coming from a left handed person) it's almost like people alienate us in a weird way when it's not even a challenge at all to be left handed.

[@MaiHand]

i am insanely happy with my XP-PEN Artist 12 pro! it works very well and it feels well made but mostly the pen and screen makes it feel great to draw on!

[@rabiia_art]

Yees i agreed i got the sameee! 👍💯 I just got a few lag on my laptop but it ended finally hehe its feel like a paper and so satisfying to draw on it

[@davidberger4886]

How come u chose the 12 instead of 15.6?

[@MaiHand]

@@davidberger4886 I thought it would be big enough xD

[@anziepanzie]

how is it holding up now?

[@MaiHand]

@@anziepanzie it still works! Tho I’ve upgraded cuz as drawing went more serious I started needing more space xD

[@vilvin2893]

So good to finally see a left-handed artist! Being left-handed too, I was particulary interested if I can rotate it. That's the point all other reviews are really lacking! I'm considering getting 15,6 Pro, I hope that can be rotated too....

[@faeb.9618]

Beautiful art! Also really glad to see another left handed artist! :D I have a question- I'm looking into display tablets to replace my current (ancient) graphire 4 and a common complain so to speak that I've seen with this tablet is its active screen size. Is that really such a big problem? Mine has roughly 6 inches or so of active screen size so I don't really see how that could be a problem, is it really uncomfortable?

[@ArtsyDiaries07]

Im thinking of getting this display tablet and your video really sells it to me! Thanks :)

[@24Kitsune]

Thanks so much for this review!! I'm so stuck on keyboard shortcuts, so it was super helpful to know that I'd still be able to use them too

[@rabiia_art]

Im left handed too haha, i love your rewiew its so pleasant to watch UwU I'm getting this tablet since I'm a beginner so I'm so excited and love your drawing it's so pretty ~😍❤️ Edit : i got my tablett yayyyu its so nice love it

[@hageneterdraws3958]

I would use the artist 12 for a beginner

[@cherylpiyono6207]

Your so good than me even if you left handed and i use right hand nice review

[@moviiearchive]

I just love the fact that you where drawing elsa and her horse

[@rowanfreemaker5938]

Thank you, not many reviewers mention the 180degree feature. As I am left-handed too. This very important to me. However, I suppose if you're not left-handed, then it doesn't matter to them and it's not mentioned.

[@magdalenaswiatczak5696]

This was a really really great review I'm very sure I'm getting this tablet this will be my very first tablet I will ever have so I hope I still stay encouraged to do digital art with no giving up thx so much for the review "again" lol

[@Llama-736]

How is it I’m getting mine in two months

[@OphismEdits]

Your work is so amazing I love the colors!!! Just bought mine can’t wait to use it 💗

[@mirandadyer863]

[@OphismEdits]

@@mirandadyer863 yes I love it!! it really works and it’s the perfect size

[@ajanitaylor5318]

[@elisestewart6202]

[@alyssxmroblox534]

I’m thinking of getting this tablet because it’s in my budget and these reviews look really good!

[@davidberger4886]

[@djonmarcmagbanuazapanta6570]

thank GOD your a lefties because i don't know is there a pen display tablet that fits for lefties and thanksfor showing this vid so that i know what to do when i have this beacuse in a left handed to! yey!!

[@šokolataSK]

I found for pretty decent price maybe I will buy it because I am trying animation. And oh gosh. It is frustrating as heck with a mouse

[@monikitty26]

Worth the purchase? I want this for my birthday

[@thegamingbase3531]

me too

[@Llama-736]

I’m getting it in two months how is it

[@Llama-736]

If you got it

[@gootyeriz]

It comes out of the box ready to use? Any additional software needed?

[@MaxineVee]

You have to install the XP-Pen driver on their website but other than that you're good to go :) I talk about it briefly in the video that you need to make sure you delete other drivers so it doesn't interfere with the xp-pen driver.

[@daro1324]

Hey! I have the same tablet but I have problems with configurations... Can you help me somehow, please? Like- I can't even set the display correctly

[@kaniko680]

Do you know the cover artist for the box I really like the Art and I feel like it will inspired me! =3

[@mirandadyer863]

she needs more likes people

[@elementsHU]

I'm left handed too. I rotate the screen with 180 degrees and now the cursore is moving inverse. What kind of settings use you?

[@NaveenJb]

Can we use Adobe illustrator and Adobe softwares?

[@remischeuir5056]

Hi. Could you tell me how to rotate for left handed please?

[@kikluzrivas8576]

hi there I wonder how do you setup the tablet for left handle?

[@kingabriel119]

My computer doesn’t have an hdmi plug in, what do I do?

[@kimmnq]

Same I'd really like to know

[@kaitlyn4477]

im pretty sure they make adapters from hdmi to usb cables

[@Llama-736]

Yeah you can buy one from amazon they are pretty cheap

[@RamoArt]

The new huion kamvas 13 can be used with just a USB c cable, maybe that'll be a better option for you

[@Abridgimation]

I can't for the life of me get it past the "Hello, please connect device" screen after installing the driver and restarting the pc. It's a shame cause this seems like a really awesome tablet

[@cloudstrife8503]

Hei, is this compatible with Apple Mac book pro?

[@elfevalor1940]

I have the same one but I cant get it to work with my desktop. I installed the driver and made some settings, but I dont know how to get my installed graphic programs on the desktop to work with it. I have Krita and Gimp but I cant open them on the tablet. And my mouse is making problems, the arrow is always jumping from my Montior to my tabled when moving it. I have Windows 11 on my desktop.

[@penholder7765]

Assume you dont get the answer, just hold and drag the art program window from your main display to the tablet display.

[@yuna0346]

I only have one hdmi in my computer and I use it for see the pc at the screen xD what can I do?

[@Llama-736]

If you have a usb type c then you can buy an adapter from amazon

[@Tiendung274]

Hi, do the pen need charging or any batteries to power it? Thank you.

[@marisssArt]

no need to recharge, is battery free pen

[@taetaexkookie1153]

What kind of laptop do you have?

[@allensiscuajao5068]

How did you set up to left handad .

[@penholder7765]

in the driver software, it have the option for left handed user. you can also make your tablet vertical (the shortcuts key & red dial are at the bottom instead of left and right), so your canvas become vertical instead of horizontal.

[@itsuko3205]

Why the video is upside-down

[@Llama-736]

She is in Australia

[@gracejordan9006]

do you need a computer to use this tablet?

[@marisssArt]

yes, this tables need a computer.

[@azegame152]

Is it rechargeable?

[@penholder7765]

no

[@kezziekz]

trying to decide between 12, 13.3 and 15.6

[@Vishal_SN]

They are all same. Only with different screen size.

[@mirandadyer863]

If your looking for a cheaper model probably get the 12 but if you don't like them really small then i would recommend getting the 15.6 although it is a bit more expensive

[@우유-f3v]

oof yes we got a left-y :)))
