There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I refunded the screen tablet, which was much more expensive, because my monitor screen has MUCH better picture/color, (and i can not afford one with good picture.)
This tablet is perfect. first, it's only 1 wire, and comes with anddroid/type c adapters. it also comes with an artist glove (its a little tight on my hand, i have big hands.) and an optional screen to go over the tablet. it makes the tablet feel more like paper.
(as a side note, scratches on a tablet is normal, I play osu, I notice every difference in my consistency, i say this because people worry about scratching tooo much, the scratches are much too small to effect consistency, it happens when the pen nib gets sharp, just replace your nibs.)
(also, I put a very very small amount of synthetic lubricant on a cloth and applied a very (VERY) thin layer to my tablet, it makes the surface extremely soft/smooth. and prolongs the life span of the plastic, (dry plastic cracks yo!) synthetic lubricant is used for moving parts, which is why it allows the pen to glide better, without making things tooo slippery.
I get off topic..heh.
this tablet is plug and play, but do yourself a favor and just get the drivers, takes just a second, it will allow you to customize the buttons.
10 buttons altogether. including the 2 pen buttons. much better than intuos 6 buttons.
the sensitivity/pressure is much more consistent than my intuos.
the wide drawing area made my work soo much easier.
there isnt really much else to say about the tablet itself, other than it works very consistently.
the main point of this tablet is, its bigger and easier. (people complaining about bigger arm movements need to excercise!! lol...i dont get tired at all but im also incredibly athletic)
i feel more free with a bigger tablet being able to use my whole arm instead of just my wrist. the elbow is important for drawing smoother lines.
the price is phenomenal. 60$ for an UPGRADE from a more expensive wacom tablet ?!??!?!?! wat.
The other reviews had issues of theirs breaking, but, you can easily get a non faulty one to replace it for free. it happens with tech manufacturing so dont worry.
mine didnt break, and i will update if something happens.
Pros:
Ergonomic Design: The XPPen Deco mini7W has a sleek and compact design that fits comfortably in my hand. Its lightweight construction allows for easy maneuverability, reducing strain on my wrist and fingers.
Pressure Sensitivity: The tablet's pressure sensitivity is excellent, making it great for artistic endeavors or precision tasks that require different levels of control.
Customizable Buttons: The tablet features programmable buttons that can be assigned to various shortcuts, providing quick access to frequently used functions. This feature enhances efficiency and reduces the need to reach for the keyboard.
Wireless Connectivity: The wireless functionality of this tablet is a convenient feature, eliminating the hassle of cords and allowing for greater freedom of movement.
Cons:
Learning Curve: Transitioning from a conventional mouse to a drawing tablet requires some adjustment. It took me a while to get accustomed to the tablet's touch-sensitive surface and hand-eye coordination. However, with patience and practice, I was able to improve my control over time.
Limited Mouse Functionality: While the XPPen Deco mini7W serves as a decent alternative mouse, it lacks the full range of features that a traditional mouse offers. This limitation may require the use of a conventional mouse alongside the tablet for certain tasks.
Battery Life: The battery life could be better. Although it lasts for a reasonable amount of time, I find myself needing to recharge it more frequently than expected.
Overall, the XPPen Deco mini7W Graphic Tablet is a solid option for those seeking an alternative mouse due to hand pain. While there is a learning curve and some limitations in terms of mouse functionality, the tablet's ergonomic design, pressure sensitivity, and wireless connectivity make it a valuable addition to my workstation. I recommend using it in conjunction with a traditional mouse to handle tasks that are better suited for a conventional input device. With some adaptation, this tablet has become an essential tool for alleviating my hand pain during prolonged computer use.
Top reviews from other countries
I previously owned an Intuos art medium(2015) and this review will be a comparison between the both because I believe that most people who want to purchase this tablet will either be beginners or the people who want to try a drawing tablet for the first time in their life, So they will try to get a beginner's range Intuos or other alternatives like this. Yes, Wac** brand has better drivers and customer support but to be honest recently they have been overpricing their product line with unexciting generation upgrades and saving their best features only for the pro line tablets which are so expensive.Their recently released 2018 beginner range tablets have worst nib wear as per many reviews, suppose for a person like me who works 6-8 hours continuously on digital drawing that's a really bad thing. I can't keep replacing my nibs for every four weeks that's ridiculous so I thought of giving XP Pen a try after reading good reviews about 'Deco 01'.
Best things about the tablet:
1- Tablet surface is smooth and scratch resistant. I didn't see any nib wear or nib marks on the tablet though I've worked for many hours till now. So I can assure the nibs won't wear quickly. They can last for an year as per my guess. Oh and there are like nine of them provided! When I said tablet surface is smooth, to elaborate it more it was like using a smooth wax colour pencil on paper it's smooth but not too much. Surface smoothness is almost the same as my old Intuos art medium.
2- Active area size is rectangular and perfect for modern monitors. It's ideal for one regular led monitor upto 30 inches size or two small montiors upto 13 inch each or one 18:9 to 21:9 flat/curved monitor. It has custom active area adjustment btw.
3 - Express keys have a perfect feel to them and are just enough. Neither too many nor too less. I don't feel the absence of a radial dial, these are already perfect.
4- Decent drivers. Yes there's 'Enable Windows Ink' check box don't worry about not having that. Pressure curve works perfectly.
5- No hover lag.While my old tablet had hover height of 7mm this one has 10mm and I can clearly see the difference.
6- Lines were sharp and clear even when canvas is zoomed out(due to 5080 lpi resolution), pressure sensitivity was just great at a price that is just 4 times lesser than Int**** Pr* Med*** (8192 levels). No lag whatsoever because of high report rate (266 rps). I can notice huge difference upon my old tablet.
7- Works best with Photoshop (If you face pressure sensitivity disable windows ink in driver interface and modify PSUserconfig.txt file in Photoshop settings folder). Also works well with Krita, Clip studio paint etc.
8- I didn't expect pen holder at this price point it was a cute little surprise(out of many other surprises). It can hold the pen both vertically horizontally. Pen holder is heavy and doesn't feel like some cheap plastic.
9 -Pen has a very good triangular grip. It's lightweight though.
10- Type C cord doesn't get into the way while you're working. I had very much problem while using express keys on my old Intuos tablet. I just can't simply use them because of their placement position and the cable was annoying. But this tablet solved those issues for me.
11- Tablet felt 1 time lighter than my old tablet.The artist glove was very useful. I may even use it for my Ipad pro too.
Cons:
1- Pen doesn't have eraser
2- Only If there was pen tilt and rotation option available on Wa*** alternatives like Xp pen I'm afraid I'll stop using Wa*** products forever. There's no pen tilt or rotation on this tablet
3 - No touch available. My old tablet had touch option but I rarely used it. Touch is not beneficial on drawing tablets, atleast for me.
4- No bundled software. Bundled software like 'Clip studio paint' or 'Corel painter essentials' would cost you around 3k rupees but you also have zero cost alternatives like Krita'.
And I forgot to mention something in the review- The shortcuts assigned to pen buttons are common towards all programs not specific to individual programs.That might be a con for multitaskers.
I've bought it for 7500/-
Final note - Being so accurate,seamless and fast it's a marvellous drawing tablet at this price point. Beginners can blindly go for this and I recommend professionals to try this tablet you will definitely love it to have as your secondary tablet, or perhaps take up your primary tablet's position. It's that good trust me!
I will soon update this review after a month with few photos of the tablet and my artworks which I'm gonna paint with it as well.
25th May update - I had an incompatibility between tablet driver and windows 10 from the past few days but a recent windows 10 update fixed the issue. Now the tablet works like a charm. Super happy!
