When I saw the Samsung Note Pro 12.2, I couldn’t resist drawing something on it. (See at the bottom of this page)
The tablet carries a customized version of Sketchbook pro.


TIP 21 | To get a digital tablet, do not believe the specs

GraphireMy first tablet was a Graphire Wacom tablet.
The pen was 512 sensitivity pressure.
It was already working so well.

Nowadays, the latest digital pens and digital tablets showcase in 2048 sensitivity pressure.

It seems that the higher number the better.
Like when you buy a camera, the more megapixels you get, the more the camera should be.

To me, the high number of sensitivity pressure is an unnecessary “luxury feature” that only a few may appreciate.

Don’t let the sales staff tell you what is good for you.
They are from an IT Store, not an art shop. They might just read the specs.
So, you better try the pen yourself and feel how it fits you!


creative-stylus-2Wacom has just come out with a new pen for iPad, the Intuos Creative Stylus 2 with 2048 sensitivity pressure with a “thin tip”. I wonder what took Wacom so long to launch it. I can’t wait to see that one in the shop as an expo product and try it myself.


To me, Samsung just came in the arena of awesome drawing tablets.
Hope Wacom is preparing in their R&D center, something greater soon.

The shop was going to close, I sketched and enjoyed the tablet and Sketchbook Pro till they asked me to leave.
