What customers say about "Key Specs"
XP-PEN Artist16 Pro 15.6 Inch IPS Drawing Monitor Pen Display Drawing Tablet
  • The screen is a great size and the stand comes in handy. If you're looking for a good starting tablet please take the time to try this tablet.
  • The pressure sensitivity is nice and all my programs work just fine on it.
  • The pressure, screen, pen, resolution and everything else is fantastic, but the colors are really off and I haven't been able to get it as close as I would like.
  • Nibs can wear down fast if you have a heavy hand/hard pressure.
  • I have a big problem though is that I couldn't use pen pressure in Photoshop. It kinda worked, then stopped.
XP-PEN Artist15.6 Pro 15.6 Inch Drawing Pen Display Graphics Monitor Full-Laminated Technology Drawing Monitor
  • Very pleased with the product, its price, the stylus, and its use. Its feel so quality building in high level.
  • The large and beautiful tablet with an amazing stylus, this is exactly what I was looking for.
  • Great tablet, love the screen, pen pressure, learning more about pen tilt, and no parallax effect after calibrating the pen.
  • When I got the device, I couldn't help but feel that the stylus felt a bit cheap; it is slightly lighter than Intuos styli, the rubber grip is not as dense, and the seam in the rubber is more noticeable.
  • Compared to Wacom, XP-pen's stylus feels a little bit clunky and unnatural.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
XP-PEN Artist16 Pro 15.6 Inch IPS Drawing Monitor Pen Display Drawing Tablet
  • Great size. Obviously there are situations where it would be nice to have a larger workspace but anything beyond what's provided here would be considered little more than a luxury.
  • This isn't a huge deal because its a perfect size and so easy to position. The screen is also quite sensitive but I'm still getting a hang of that too in terms of the software.
  • I love this size. Not too small and not too big.
  • This item beautiful color, resolution is great, the size is perfect, pen is wonderfully sensitive.
  • Lower screen resolution does not really matter much at 16 inch size, though the build itself feels quite bulky and cables tend to get in the way.
XP-PEN Artist15.6 Pro 15.6 Inch Drawing Pen Display Graphics Monitor Full-Laminated Technology Drawing Monitor
  • The build quality is excellent, not TOO heavy, but heavy enough where it doesn't feel cheap.
  • It is a decent weight and size, though I wouldn't imagine dragging this thing everywhere with me, but that's just my usage.
  • Other than some minor issues, this is the highest quality wacom alternative display tablet of this size.
  • I absolutely adore this product the scroll is surprisingly addictive and the size is perfect!
  • If you push hard on the screen it makes some waves, not very noticeable but still.

What customers say about "Display Parameters"
XP-PEN Artist16 Pro 15.6 Inch IPS Drawing Monitor Pen Display Drawing Tablet
  • Excellent screen color and resolution. I am very happy with my purchase!
  • This display tablet is phenomenal. The set up was easy, and installing drivers was simple as can be.
  • The build is great and the display’s not-so-thick bezels improves the pen display’s overall aesthetics.
  • The screen color is not identical to your monitor and kind of tricky to troubleshoot. I couldn't get mine to work properly, so I tend to just glance at the proper monitor to make sure it's right.
  • Now when I turn on the tablet, I only get some minor screen flickering on the display.
XP-PEN Artist15.6 Pro 15.6 Inch Drawing Pen Display Graphics Monitor Full-Laminated Technology Drawing Monitor
  • Overall I like it very much. I like the design and built quality, of both the display and the pen.
  • This is honestly a great graphics display. I can’t complain, sometimes it seems that for such a display I’m ready to pay even more.
  • The display colors weren't perfectly accurate, but they're acceptable and the tablet software makes them easy to adjust.
  • Good color out of box, pretty bright display, very affordable and easy to use.
  • Stunning display and comes with express keys that respond really well and feel sturdy.

What customers say about "Features"
XP-PEN Artist16 Pro 15.6 Inch IPS Drawing Monitor Pen Display Drawing Tablet
  • The side buttons are super easy to program and it fits in my lap SO nicely. I just love it. You won't go wrong choosing this one.
  • The Express Key buttons are also a huge help. For some reason, XP Pen sent me the Remote Control, which includes a dial and 9 express key buttons.
  • Responsive controls which are customizable for personal usage which allow you to have great control access and presets.
  • Comes with a sturdy built in stand that can adjust to different angles easily. The stand is sturdy and easy to lower/raise the monitor.
  • I really hate the screen protector it left like a rainbow residue like how you get air bubbles.
XP-PEN Artist15.6 Pro 15.6 Inch Drawing Pen Display Graphics Monitor Full-Laminated Technology Drawing Monitor
  • The buttons and dial are responsive and solid, and the pen feels solid, though I would have liked the button near the pen tip to protrude like the other button does.
  • The pen tilt feels great, especially in software that utilizes it well, like Rebelle 3 and Photoshop.
  • A microfiber cleaning cloth, a spandex artist glove to keep skin oils off the screen (Only covers the pinky and ring fingers, is reversible,) and most importantly, a multi-functional pen case.
  • The functionality of the drivers themselves are amazing, no lags, smooth working.
  • After calibrating, my brush strokes come out as smooth and as natural as I want them to, and I have a good feeling of control.
