The second generation of XPPen’s Artist Pro brings some welcome upgrades, including a neat compact keydial, a snazzy stylus holder and a much more robust build. It also offers 16,000 pressure levels, although the difference between this and the industry-standard 8,092 is barely discernible. Like previous models in the Artist Pro range, it’s relatively affordable, and it mostly performed well on test, but a few design niggles and performance blips prevent it from making the pro-grade.
Includes keydial, stylus and replacement nibs; Improved build quality; Decent specs for the price
A few performance blips; No VESA mount, limited stand options; No 2.5 or 4K
