XP-Pen Deco Mini 7W Unboxing & Impressions

[@melooo3215]

I've been using this tablet for half a year now and so far its performance was great. I use it with my phone and laptop and it works well with both. Just be careful not to drop the pencil or else you'll need to replace it for a new one.

I just bought a Deco Mini to draw on my phone and wish I knew this existed before I bought it. Looks like the difference is them adding wireless to it. The more options the better. I wonder if a Deco Display Tablet is in the works.

[@AmyLionheartArtistry]

This is amazing... Twice the amount of pressure levels & shortcut keys compared to a Wacom’s lower end tablets. I wish I could’ve started w/ this when I first started digital Art. 😭 Also, Im addicted to your vids Brad.

[@tematoscybersage5626]

you can just adjust sensitivity curve and it will draw thick lines at the light pressure.

[@gg31hh]

I recently bought a pen tablet based on your other review. I have been a Wacom user for a long time and wanting to explore other brand can offer. So after I got the (non-Wacom) tablet - I noticed that the driver isn't well refined or inflexible or many limitation. Ie. the assign prog for that preset only work for the express key and not the pen; other example is those that some shortcut cannot be assign on pen button2&3 but able to assign to the pen-tablet express keys; another example is u cant assign mouse scroll/right click/ middle click on the dial or the express keys. What I am saying is that, perhaps you can provide review based "not just" what they have in driver but what is their limitation. As some of the missing feature (based from Wacom driver) can be a deal breaker for some. To me, the driver (software) is equally important as the hardware itself.

[@kaisanmohamad2955]

Actually, there is wave because of presure sensitivity. *maybe*

[@ajtatosmano2]

Huions's H950p isn't wireless, but literally no wave, nearly the same price, larger drawing area and the lines doesn't have the sdtrange tapering issue. The initial activation force is very very light and it has tilt functionality. Also works with android devices. No reason to buy this for anyone. If it's too big for you, then choose the H640p model (no tilt).
