My sister took back her Wacom Intuos Pro and moved to another place.I need a new tablet. To be honest, the Intuos Pro was perfect for the job but ever since I saw the Cintiq stuff, I've been desiring a tablet with a screen for the longest time.The Cintiq are expensive though so save money starting today but are there other brands that maybe do similar products AND are quality stuff?
>>1000948huion are pretty comparable quality and about half the price you can also find used/refurbished wacom shit for like 75-90% off on ebay. shit loses its value incredibly hard despite being made to last. i've got tablets and cintiqs a decade old that still work like new.
>>1001104Yeah because professional studios buy the stuff in bulk there's always these points where somewhere upgrades or shuts down and you suddenly have a massive glut of the stuff on ebayI got a 4 year old cintiq pro for just under half price because some London design studio was shutting downWorks perfectly, pen needed replacing because the rubber had started to stink/rotBut still worked out absurdly cheap
>>1001104not op, but how do you mount these display tablets? I have like zero space. Even my intuos pro large is too big for my desk.
>>1001213If you scoot your keyboard forward far enough you can put if flat in front of it.Give you neck strain though.
>>1001214but you have to use your keyboard in order to use the applications properly
>>1001213you can get arm mounts that will clamp on to the side of a desk if space is really a problem, but those will set you back $$$$$, last i recall they were somewhere between $200-400 usd. you can also get arm mounts that are attached to a flat stand base instead of a clampotherwise most tablets tend to come with a shallow stand that usually has about the same height and width profile as the tablet itself and usually stands it up at about a 30-60 degree angle, and the tablet usually just rests on them, and they are much cheaper. the older, larger cintiqs had bolt on metal X frame stands that screwed into the tablet, had wheels on the back legs, and also weighed a solid 20lbs, but as far as i know those are pretty much out of use these daysif this is something you plan to do full time/professionally, it may be worth literally getting a different desk to accommodate the kind of tablet you want to use, rather than the other way around. if you are a craftsman, you dont get smaller tools because your toolbox isnt big enough to fit the ones you need. you get a bigger toolbox. same idea. if having a 24" tablet would really help your design (though to be clear plenty of professional artists make due with smaller tablets), then its worth rearranging your workspace to accommodate it, finances willing.
>>1001213I have a 24" xencelabs display on an amazon basics arm (I think its a rebranded ergotron LX) and it works pretty good for me
