Drawing Tablet XPPen StarG640 Digital Graphic Tablet 6x4 Inch Art Tablet with Battery-Free Stylus Pen Tablet for Mac, Windows and Chromebook (Drawing/E-Learning/Remote-Working)

Works great! One of my favorite things about this tablet is the size. it’s small enough to fit comfortably in my workspace, which is a huge plus, especially for screenless tablets. The pressure sensitivity works really well, but just a heads up. you do need to download the driver first or it won’t function properly. The instructions make it easy though, so it’s a quick fix. I also like the surface texture. It’s not overly smooth or slippery, which gives it a bit of grip and makes drawing feel more natural and controlled. Bonus points for the warranty. it seems to come with about a year of coverage from xppen, which is always nice for peace of mind. Overall, a solid tablet that’s easy to use and fits well into a smaller setup.

Drawing performance was really great, the texture was a lot like pencil on paper, I have an old HP it just plugs right in and works effortlessly, the customizability was really simple to set, screen was well lite. Unfortunately its does everything but what I’m looking for. But it was fun to play with.

Pretty great pen and tablet for the value. Tablet scratches a tad bit easily but is still easy to use. They give you many free pen tips (20-ish), USB cable, pen, and tablet.

Came in perfect condition and well-packaged. I really love this tablet. I feel like its the perfect size: not to large, not to small. The drawing performance was excellent and its very responsive, yet my hand doesnt trigger any artifacts like with a previous drawing tablet i owned (palm rejection is vitally important when drawing). I really love the pen hoop at the side since it makes sure i dont lose the stylus. I use it with Krita and Clip Studio Paint and found that it was so easy to use, it was easy to make my illustrations. Of course, I installed the driver it comes with first (and I heavily reccomend people do that, since it makes your lines more stable and makes sure your palm is rejected well). Overall, a great drawing tablet.

Purchased this in particular for better use of Windows handwriting keyboard. Plugged into the computer, downloaded the driver and it was all good to go. Instructions were very clear. Product came in factory sealed packaging so that was a big plus. Easy to use and if you are like me who is using a Windows PC without a touchscreen monitor and wants to utilize the handwriting keyboard, this one is for you. It’s very simple and basic, and compact, without all other fancy features which was what I wanted, and the price was right. In my opinion after watching several videos and testing it myself, if you are intending to do any art work, you might want to invest in another model with more features and functions. Once again, this model is very basic, but serves my needs perfectly.

The positives: This was easy to plug right into my laptop, open my favorite art program and start drawing immediately. The negatives: The user manual included explains nothing about what the buttons on the pen do. Had to discover that through trial and error. Even then, the pen and pad have a horribly obnoxious learning curve. Getting used to using a digital pen after drawing on paper for my whole life is a nightmare in and of itself, but the tapping sensitivity is a project too. Sometimes if I tap a millisecond too late, the pen REFUSES to draw and I have to lift the pen, click elsewhere on screen with my mouse to make the little menu that popped up go away, and start again. Sometimes I can draw while pressing a button and other times I can't at all. It's horrendously unpredictable. I know that eventually with trial and error I will have this thing figured out, but over the past week since I started testing this thing out I haven't. My feeling has always been that if something has a learning curve, in other words I cannot take it out of the box and use it right away with zero roadblocks, then it is not designed well.

I ordered this drawing tablet almost a month ago and the tracking information suddenly ended 5 days after I made the purchase, yet the new arrival date kept getting extended. Finally, after 23 days had gone by with no tablet, I was told to contact the seller. (If you need to contact the seller, be sure to contact them by clicking through your order so your message is automatically tied to your invoice.) XP-Pen customer service set up a replacement delivery, which arrived 2 days after I first contacted them. Apparently, I was one of the lucky few whose package got lost in transit, but they resolved this issue quickly. Moving on to the product itself. At first (with my tech savvy confidence), I just thought that I could simply download the drivers from their XP-Pen.com website and install everything as I normally do. No luck--I got signs of life, but I couldn't make accurate marks and the tablet wasn't exactly responding to the stylus as it should. I completely started over by uninstalling the drivers, and actually reading their directions for installing on an iMac with Catalina 10.15 OS. (Wow--what a difference following the directions makes! I think that I was just impatient after waiting for this thing for almost a month. :P ) Once I correctly reinstalled the drivers and went through their set-up steps, everything worked perfectly! This is great for annotating, screen casting, drawing in various apps, and more, which I have yet to discover. It's comfortable to use, whether you're right or left handed. You can configure how you want to orient your tablet in your settings. It's responsive, and this Star G640 model weighs in at a very teacher budget friendly price. I was waffling between purchasing this model or making the stretch for a higher end one that has a larger active space. The Star G640's 6" x 4" drawing area has been sufficient for working with elementary-age students. I've never owned a drawing tablet before, so this was an affordable way to try this out. So far, I am very pleased with this purchase. I just wish that it had arrived 3 weeks earlier, because it could have saved me from additional online teaching headaches!

ignore how greasy my tablet looks omg i think it's just really easy to get dirty but the all black pen is the one that comes with this tablet, but the silver/black one is my deco pro pen. okay so!!!! i'm an xp pen user til the day i die hehe i'm so loyal. i used to use the deco pro mw and small, but then the ports cracked in both of them which made them basically unusable. then in the middle of my sleep deprived delirium, i decided that i'd get a baby xp pen tablet as a temporary replacement. i hopped on amazon, found the star g640, and bought it on a whim. it arrived on the same day bc i'm a ✨ prime user ✨ so i started using it immediately after i woke up. it's very small, and i have it connected to my laptop. it's okay if you wanna draw in bed, but if you're at a table, the tablet's corners are a bit sharp (?) so it might scratch your forearm rubbing against it. it's also extremely light so if you have it laying on your body then it won't put a lot of pressure yay. also the tablet doesn't have buttons at all unlike deco pro, but the pen does have the typical left/right click buttons. speaking of the pen... here is the make or break: the pen is REALLY uncomfortable?? maybe it's bc i've grown so used to the rubber on the deco pro pens, but this pen really reminds me of the wacom intuos pen but significantly cheaper (which i guess is what you'd imagine for a $40 drawing tablet but that doesn't mean i can't be disappointed LOL). and for some reason, the strokes feel slower and less precise? maybe that's my own skill issue but it seriously felt super wrong and i was beginning to get kinda exhausted from drawing. i was contemplating returning the tablet altogether and rushing to get another deco pro, but then i had the idea to try and use my deco pro pen on it and IT WORKED????? 💃💃 so now it actually doesn't physically hurt me to use!!!!!! which is good bc i REALLY didn't wanna get another tablet LMFAOOOO. if it weren't for the pen compatibility, i would honestly have given this either three or even two stars, but i'd say it bumped it back up to a four. which technically is not this product by itself, i just got really lucky i've already used xp pen, and i appreciate the fact that you can cross over the pens between different xp tablets, so it can have the extra star <3 tl;dr the tablet is okay, the work space is small but reasonably so. if you aren't a beginner then you'll recognize how awful this pen feels to hold. if you're buying from xp pen then just get a deco pro i'm so serious 😭😭 but this tablet really is as much as it's worth and i'd definitely recommend it for BEGINNER artists, especially kids.

I bought this for my task during working from home as sometimes my digital signature is required for approval. This digital pen and pad are good enough for the purpose. Additionally it supports WINDOWS INK app which is very useful for the meeting via Zoom/Webex as it allows to visualize your idea and what you talk about on MS Word, Excel and Powerpoint. I love to use it during my meeting.

Muy buena y de calidad, tener en cuenta que con el usa se va a ir rayando la tablet pero no afecta en su uso súper cómoda y trae repuestos de puntas para el lápiz

Foi ótima para meu início na arte digital, apesar de ela ser menor! Mas responde bem, vem com várias pontas. Coloquei um papel por cima para que ela não arranhasse tanto e deslizasse menos, me deu mais estabilidade. No mais, uma boa mesa para iniciar.

This tablet is perfect for just starting out in digital art and perhaps long time use, if you can't afford a more robust upgrade. I have been steadily using mine for 3 months since it arrived. The box it came in had all components packed snugly so it wouldn't be damaged from getting jostled during shipping. The tablet is powered via the Android USB cable it comes with and works as soon as your desktop recognizes the connection but you should still install the latest drivers from the XP-Pen website, especially if you are using this for digital art. The pen is very responsive I don't notice any lag and don't feel as if it's not doing what I want it to. It has 2 programmable buttons that you can set the functions for in the driver. The driver has pressure sensitivity modifiers. I have not needed to use it but it's nice that it's there. The default pressure sensitivity is perfect. You don't have to press too hard to get the brush to it's full size. The manual it comes with says to avoid dropping the pen, obviously to avoid damaging it. One day I did accidentally drop it on the cement floor of my work space but fortunately it still works perfectly. Of course you should avoid dropping it but the fact my pen survived such a fall is a plus for me. It comes with a decent supply of spare nibs. I have been using this tablet steadily for 3 months and the first nib isn't even close to being half worn down yet. The tablet itself is fine. the size is comfortable and doesn't feel cramped. The matte surface allows for a semi rough texture that decently simulates the friction of paper. There are noticable scratches on the surface after frequent use but it doesn't affect the functionality at all. if the scratches are a problem, I'd recommend placing a layer of wax paper over the surface. I mostly use Krita and Gimp (free software) but I can still produce quality artwork with this tablet. So I imagine higher end paid software will cause no issue. Overall this tablet is a quality product and I have yet to experience any severe, deal-breaking issues or any issues in general. For such an affordable tablet I'm impressed and look forward to one day getting my hands on one of XP-Pen's LCD Screen Tablets.

I like it , its amazing i first downloaded the normal drivers then i realized they had osu ones (which is the whole reason i bought the xp pen for)
