Xencelab drawing tablets

I was wondering if anybody is using a Xencelab graphics tablet with Photoshop and how it stacks up against a Wacom tablet, or what's good and not so good.

 

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

    Xencelabs tablet is expensive.

    why not get a wacom tablet, wacom intuos pro works great with photoshop, I have one and would likely to recommend it to you.

    xencelabs is same as xp-pen or huion tablet but with a higher price tag.

    I would recommend you get a wacom tablet if you have the budget.

    Hi Nancy,

     

    I have looked at reviews online (positive and negative), but some could be posted by someone actually working for the company who makes the tablets, or their competitores, so I'm expanding my question to here, where there is a bit of a fence from the open internet 😉

     

    I appreciate the link, though!

    BTW the poster of the review you sent claims she doesn't use the pressure sensitivity of the Xencelab tablet, writing: "particularly if, like me, you don’t require much in the way of pressure sensitivity (disclosure: I turn that off anyway, the 8192 pressure levels are sadly dead to me)". 

     

    For me, this the main feature of a graphics tablet though, so I'm not clear why she endorses the tablet anyway.
