If you're looking for an affordable monitor tablet, I would definitely recommend the Veikk VK1200. While it is not their largest model, it keeps true to the quality I've come to expect from Veikk products. It would be absolutely perfect for a budding artist, or professional/hobbyist looking to upgrade from a standard tablet without burning a hole in their wallet.
The VK1200 comes perfectly packaged. Inside the package is a glove, cleaning cloth, power + HDMI cord, two pens, and a pen stand that will also hold some of the extra nibs. In fact, this tablet comes with so many nibs that I don't expect to run out any time soon!
The tablet itself feels very sturdy, and it is overall just incredibly pretty and sleek. I love that the screen has a matte feel to it opposed to just glass. It makes drawing on it feel more natural, and creates just enough resistance that my pen doesn't slide everywhere.
The hotkeys are easy to program and an absolute time saver. I couldn't live without them. I like to program not only an undo and redo button, but a flip button as well so I can flip my screen horizontally with ease.
The power cord is a USB, so be sure you have enough USB ports, or that you purchase a dock. The HDMI cord is, of course, an HDMI cord. I work from a desktop, and I didn't realize I only had one HDMI port so I ended up having to purchase an adapter, but that was fine!
It does not come with a stand at this price point either, which is also fine. I found a relatively inexpensive tablet stand on Amazon, and it works great!
There is hardly any parallax with this monitor (Meaning that the cursor isn't directly aligned with the tip of the pen). The only time I notice the parallax is when I try to tap on a setting/tab/option within clip studio, but that is only if I'm holding my pen at too much of an angle.
Which brings me to the pen. It is very light and battery free. I love it. It's big, but feels comfortable in my hand. Let me not forget that the nib seems to have a bit of bounce to it when you press down, which I also like.
Over all, this tablet is amazing. I really enjoy drawing on it. I've drawn the picture included in here with this tablet and I had absolutely no issue. I could not recommend Veikk products more. I will definitely be using this little guy on bigger projects that my iPad cannot handle!
