What Creators Are Saying:
- Creative Bloq
For artists who value precision, portability, and affordability, this is one of the best value mid-range drawing tablets I've tried, and a sign that XPPen’s smart chip stylus tech is catching up fast.
- Digital Camera World
The XPPen Artist 12 3rd is a great performer overall and provides functionality in terms of input pressure and sensitivity typically seen in higher-end XPPen pen displays. The 1080p resolution works well for the 11.9-inch display, and the auto-dimming feature matches ambient lighting effectively. It, however, lacks the clarity, punch and sharpness of higher-resolution 4K Calman Verified XPPen displays, but it remains a fantastic budget option.
