Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The tablet is great otherwise and comes with nib replacements for the stylus and the tool to remove the nib (silver metal ring) it also works with fire alpaca and gimp. I like that the program for the tablet let's you reprogram your * to do what you n...  Read More

Overall satisfied with the affordability and quality of the xp-pen g430s. Also surprisingly durable. I recommend to all aunties to make their niece and nephews happy.

The g430s is so small and lightweight that it’s not a struggle to carry it around or put it in a backpack. It's the same width as my casio fx-991ex calc horizontally.



Cons

The real estate for holding it still is useless. The customer service is non existent. Asked for a refund. In windows their is a recurring problem where the software wont open and you have to redownload it every time and doesn't save settings.

    My first take away is upon unboxing the device there is a very thin screen film on it that says to keep it on while you test the product and if it is removed the product cannot be returned


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I thought to myself okay if i have to keep it on i will until i decide if the product works for me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However after testing just a few lines and dots that thin screen film that came on it was so shredded up and ripped that i could not even continue to test the product to my expectations the product claims 16k pressure levels so i wanted to test this feature but the film was preventing me from getting any proper strokes in as the pen was getting caught on it and messing things up


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So end result i removed the film ultimately deciding that i liked the product enough but primarily i removed it so i can use it properly


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Which i found out quickly that the 16k pressure levels was causing issues in other apps with pressure curves that are design for the commonly used 8k pressure levels


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So as a beginner i was very confused getting my brushes to work right in drawing apps


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Pair that with the concept that the buttons that are included on the tablet cannot be pressed or felt with by the brush so every time you want to undo or zoom in you have to physically look down at the buttons and if its dark it is very hard to see them


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not only that but the buttons dont feel large enough or sensitive enough i found myself tapping the buttons either not enough times or too many times and accidently touching other apps on my screen trying to get them to activate
