As a digital artist, it is very important to have a comfortable and good sized tablet to draw with. It seems like you get much more than what you pay and that is a big plus. It comes with a smudge guard, replacement nibs, instructions, and even a bag to carry it around!The installation process was extremely easy and doesn’t even require a restart of your computer. There are 10 press keys that are easily customizable.For the tablet itself, the pressure sensitivity is nice, not the BEST, but good for the price. There is NO tilt function though (not that i expected it from a cheaper pen tablet). You can also customize two buttons on the pen itself. The connection cord isn’t that long, so you cant be that far away from your desktop. The size is great and so far i haven’t had any issues with this tablet.If you are a beginner, i HIGHLY recommend this tablet. It gets the job done, and well. I wish this was my first pen tablet.

I didn’t read the description right. This is a giant tablet at least compared to what I’m used to. For years I used a Wacom tablet the size of just under an iPad. Stopping using that tablet was the result of the driver is no longer accepted by Windows 10. A small Huion tablet replaced that. Using that took re-training myself to work on about four inches of surface. The Huion suffered an unexplainable hardware death. So I ordered this tablet.This is a massive tablet even compared to the old Wacom one. If you want a large drawing surface look no further than this! But make sure you uninstall other tablet drivers before you install the driver for this. The old Huion one caused a conflict in usage before removal and re-installing the driver for this tablet.Because I got used to the Huion’s small size, this one is going to take getting used to. To give myself some training as a warmup before serious artwork is done. Ok, I’m a geek that watches anime. Gao”mon”? Being a Digimon fan I had to draw this crack. Adjusting in how I was making my pen strokes across this tablet only took under and hour. Soon hopefully I’ll have a re-trained hand for using this jumbo pad. :-D( PS: Drawn in Clip Studio. )

UPDATE: This company is great! I was contacted by gammon and they asked to send me a new pen at no cost, it was super fast and the person i talked [Tiffany] to was extremely friendly. I can’t recommend them enough.Original review: I’ve had this tablet for a few months now and I’ve loved it, but recently the nib on my pen keeps slipping out while drawing, the nib was not worn down but i still changed it out with one of the extras provided and it keeps happening :(The tablet itself works really well, my only complaint is the pen.

Though it claims to work with Paint tool SAI, it took me a while to set the program up. I had to dig in on YouTube and find solution for it, luckily i made it work. For anyone who bought this or about to buy this that would love to use SAI, keep that in mind. It has to do with fixing the coding of SAI’s misc.ini file, save it as a UNICODE setting, its easy don’t worry. If your current SAI file doesn’t work after you do all that, reinstall a new one, it will work for sure. Hope this helps 🙏

I’ve had and used a Bamboo create since 2012, and this holds up very well to it. It’s just as good if not better. The size is big but not too large to be awkward to use, there’s plenty of buttons to bind shortcuts to and the general feel of the tablet is nice and sturdy.Not to mention the price point! It’s very high quality and comes with a lot of features/extras considering the cheaper price. The nibs in the pen are also a lot easier to replace than bamboo products, which I appreciated. The driver is also very simple to install.This is a great tablet for beginner digital artists because of the simple interface, but it’s also just great for anyone who wants to save money and still get a quality product.

ive been doing digital art for 7 years now and this is great, I’ve only bought lower end/cheaper tablets just to save money and because I’m not a professional, but I’ve used wacoms and screen tablets and I prefer this! it feels super lightweight and clean, comes with a glove and bag and stuff its cool especially for the price point! works great! attached my art made with it!

Making the switch from traditional art (pencil and paper) to digital has always been daunting, but I feel like this product made the transition so much easier!It was so easy to set up the tablet and straightforward when it came to programming the buttons on both the tablet and the pen. It feels so much like drawing with a pencil on paper, the only difference is I’m not looking down at the “paper”.The tablet itself is a decent size with a good amount of shortcut buttons! The pen practically glides across the tablet, it’s so smooth! And bonus points for not needing batteries! Like some other people have pointed out, the pen does feel a little cheap, but that doesn’t mean it’s not as efficient.I’ve noticed that sometimes when I’m drawing, the tablet will register my arm resting on it and cause the line to jump from one end of the page to the other, but this happens infrequently enough that it’s easy to ignore. For the most part, it does not pick up anything but the pen.I’m, by no means, a professional artist. In fact, I only ever draw for fun once every couple of months. That being said, I firmly believe this tablet is a wonderful investment for beginning artists, especially those who want to make the transition from traditional art to digital, like I am in the process of doing. And for less than $70 (at the time of writing this review), it’s a great deal!

I am NOT tech-savvy at all. That being said, this was easy from the opening. I did watch a video prior to purchasing this product and that video alerted me to the fact that I needed to uninstall previous sketch apps and informed me how to install the drivers (and User Manual) for the Gaomon MK10. I have to admit, even though I watched the video before I was still worried about getting it to work right because, as I said, I am not tech-savvy at all. There was no need to worry! It all went very smoothly and I’m learning as I go. I’ve never used anything like this before and I have a long way to go to be able to say I like it as an art device; my drawings aren’t very good to begin with, but what I can say about it is there are so many features that I just love! The way I can select pieces and work with them, layers, all the different pencil/marker/brush options… the list is endless! I haven’t figured out how to use it all yet, but there’s this awesome feature – the “long press” on any icon, that brings up a link that explains and shows video for that particular icon. It’s great! I highly recommend it for beginners and most likely advanced digital artists, as well! Also, the company is great! Tiffany from Gaomon sent me a personalized email after I received the tablet and asked if there was anything she could help me with – but this company was so proactive with videos, explanations, instructions, etc., that I didn’t need any help from her at all! Surprisingly enough for me! Even after I told her that, she still sent me another PDF doc that had even more information on it than what I had already seen. I don’t usually leave reviews for products, but this one (product and company) really impresses me!

Bought this product to aid in my online lectures, which suddenly had to be moved online within a short period of time. I am very impressed with the quality and the functionality of this product. Once the drivers are installed, it enables programming the hardware buttons to user preferred shortcuts; I’ve programmed mine on pens, highlighters, and erasers on a note taking app that I use for my lectures. Very stable construction, professionally packed, comes with a bunch of extra passive digitizer pens nibs, and a touch prevent glove. Will take a little getting used on the digitizer but the touch sensitivity can be calibrated to user preference. Best $50 spent in a while.

UPDATE 11/21 – Newest driver software update (m10k 2018 driver 16.0.0.37) includes the ability to assign different pressure settings and shortcut button assignments per app. Perfection.I worked on a wacom intuos 4 (6x4in) for yeeeaars, doing digital illustration and photo retouching. This tablet works equally as well in every way but has a much larger working area for a MUCH better price. The pressure sensitivity curve is very natural for inking in illustrator. Can be used left or right handed (NOTE: The 90-degree USB connector only connects one way, so when using the tablet left-handed the cable kind of angles towards you before moving away). I love the loop on the side for holding the stylus a zillion times more than the “stand” that always gets knocked over on my other tablets. The driver software is *surprisingly* competent. I expected broken English and wonkiness, but I’m pleasantly surprised. — {The only missing feature that I kind of miss from Wacom’s software was the ability to assign the pen and shortcut button *per* app.} (deprecated) –. But that’s easy enough to work around for the quality and value here.
