Are there any good alternatives to this piece of shit?

stay poor

t. pajeet

IPad pro + pen
Microsoft surface studio
Anything these days, they're just coasting on their reputation these days

dont buy a expensive one , the art is not in a tablet but in your skills , just buy a 80 dollar one bamboo shit piece , its all about the skills you will be training.

working with a graphire , last month its pressure went shit . about to buy a shit piece.

Huion has good tablets for way cheaper
I use a WH1409, werks good and like 25% the cost of a large intuos pro.
For display tablets, I've heard the ugee ones are pretty decent.

Huion is the best. Artisul is good as well.

I brought a Samsung Note4 to test the drawing function with Photoshop Sketch, not bad, actually like it a lot. Thinking about getting Samsung Galaxy Note Pro, it has a 12" screen.

Huion, Ugee, Yiynova, XP-Pen. There's quite a lot of chink tablets out there and they're pretty dirt cheap compared to Wacom. Functionly they work great and you can make just as good art as you can with a Cintiq but the only problem is that most drivers are pretty garbage when it comes to Windows 10. I have a Yiynova MSP19U+ which I owned since 2014 that was working fine before Windows 10 update fucked it all up and I had to go back to Windows 7 just to use my tablet. It's hard to tell whether I should blame the chink drivers or Windows 10 updates being god awful.

Huion and XP-Pen are really good and cheap alternatives

They probably don't update their drivers for a "legacy" product from 2014, so any recent model should be fine for Win10

t. someone who never worked on a screen tablet

people created nice digital art more than a decade ago on older software, weaker machines and non-screen cheap tablets. top-of-the-line is far from necessity for normal people

For the same price I think the new Ipad is better. What do you guys think?

>jewcom
>piece of shit
sadly, even the cheapest models are the best for the price, so no.
You might be able to get some chink shit that's worth about the same as cheaper wacom (I think they call it the bamboo line now) in terms of price/performance, but that's about it.

for netflix and shitpost? maybe
for drawing? definitely not

OP here
I'm not complaining about the build quality, it seems fine

It's these god damn drivers

Drivers for what? I've never had any troubles with wacom tablets on win 8.1/10, nor mac.
On GNU/Linux I've only tried an old bamboo ctl 470 and it worked fine.

>top-of-the-line is far from necessity for non-lazy people

I have an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. It's pretty cool but the low friction is a big downside.

I also have a Bamboo tablet and it's pretty great, don't know why anyone would think it's a "piece of shit" like OP said.

I've used the Microsoft Surface Studio and it has the issue where a diagonal straight line will waver so I would not recommend it even though it's a beautiful piece of hardware.

If I were a serious art maker I'd get a Cintiq Pro 16 or 32.

>for drawing? definitely not
Reason? I saw video of it and Ipad is bretty gud.

see
the 610pro was the go to for a while, but they made a large form tablet thats wireless that is the new go too... 150$ though so yea, I would say its worth it

if you want monitors, monoprice has a uclogic based one, huion puts out one too, along with some others I cant remember how to spell.

always make sure they are uc logic based though, that's the digitizer that I know has caught up and in many ways surpassed wacom.

if you get a small bamboo you are crippling yourself, you need to draw with your arm not your wrist, you need a medium to large tablet, and huion makes both.

and those old models sucked evey single dick that was presented to them.

some people can get use to not drawing where their hand is, its a skill you tend to develop from people watching.

personally, I see this as a you are spending X money over the course of 5 years on a hobby, this is about the length of time for what you are using to become outdated and easily replaceable.
If you enjoy the hobby, a 2000$ investment up front is 5 years worth of use, 400$ a year.

granted, I would guide anyone to getting a drawing board, a stack of 18x24 newsprint and some charcoal/thick and soft lead pencils, as almost all the time tested methods to learn to draw are based in traditional art. I would only suggest digital for people underage, or who are to the point they want to learn color, underage because the easiest way to find models and weird poses to draw is porn, and nudity is something most parents refuse to let their kids expose themselves to even after they hit 18

till 10 decides to break everything.

the non wacom tablets have an issue and that's microsoft WILL adding drivers to them

on all pre win 10 computers, you set it up, tell windows to fuck right the hell off, and that's that, its fine, however on 10 windows decides it knows whats best and fucks everything you have to unfuck to make tablets work again.

How about a piece of paper and a pencil, you fucking retards.

In terms of what?
Drawing tablets?
In that case, Huion. I am very satisfied with my Huion tablet, and they're cheap as dirt, yet feels more robust than the wacoms we have at our school.

Guys
recommend me a good Ugee monitored graphic tablet

Can confirm my 2015 iPad Pro 12.9 and an apple pencil beats the shit out of my Wacom Intuos. The pen technology is literally better, though the iPad software is lacking.

grab a thinkpad yoga 460 on eBay comes with a wacom digitizer you can probably get one for about £500 I have one and its great for drawing desu

Just get cube i7 stlus/book/mix plus
Or thinkpad x220t/x230t
If you want cheap on-screen digitizer
