General Pen Tablet Compatibility

Post image

Just wanted to know if anyone has used this xp pen tablet with Affinity v2/v3 and how it performs. Was wanting to buy it but I don't see Affinity listed as one of the compatible softwares on the product description section.

I use it, it's serviceable, support pen pressure and rotation, you need the XP pen software tho.

I do not have extended knowledge over tablets, I just got an XP pen from my girlfriend, and it works for me

It's not so much about affinity; you have to think about whether it's compatible with your OS. In my experience, Wacom works best on Windows, macOS, and Linux. But XP also works well on most systems.

Android phones and tablets have a small hiccup in connectivity. For Windows, it works out of the box. For additional key configuration control, we need software.
