Not sure if this is the right forum buuuttt anyway-
My tablet just fell off of my desk and broke. ;3;
It's completely unusable and not responding to touch or being plugged in x.x;;
It seems like I have to bite the bullet and buy a new one :T
I guess I'm looking for suggestions for what to buy? I was using a Wacom Bamboo One, it was my baby for the past 3 years RIP
I don't need anything fancy I just want a tablet that has a usb plug in and a pen that doesn't need a battery or be charged.
What tablets do y'all use? Would you recommend buying one?
Do you have any tablets you've been keeping your eye on? What brands in your opinion are the best?

i also use a Wacom Bamboo lol. it's a decent tablet for the price
don't have much experience outside of that, so hopefully someone else has suggestions; good luck!

wacom is a solid choice however i keep hearing bs about their newer nibs wearing down a lot faster (razor and blades model π)
i've heard some good things about huion as well--
personally i've only ever owned wacom tablets and they've been good to me
i bought the wireless intuos pro but it's usb wireless, not bluetooth =_= so if you want wireless... try bluetooth over usb haha

I use a Huion Giano but takes forever to charge.
But the one I am planning to buy is XP Pen's star 05.
It doesn't require the pen to charge and tablet charges for 2 hours and it can just have the wire to charge it in
if you don't want to charge it too.
It also depends on what you need for a tablet. Pen pressure to me is super important so the star 05 has over 8000 levels of pen pressure.
It's not super fancy but will get things done without taking much time to charge.
I would also watch reviews on tablets if you are not sure what to get as there are many on
youtube as there are many companies for tablets.

I've been using a Wacom Bamboo Fun for like 10 years now. It's getting old, so I'm thinking about buying a new tablet. Seeing as this one's lasted so long I definitely feel like Wacom is a good quality brand. Wacom Intuos looks good to me. Bluetooth and usb sound good and the pen doesn't need charging or have a battery. The price for the small one doesn't seem so bad too. I don't know how I feel about the nibs on the pen though. I've never had to replace the nib on my old pen.

@Keo: I'd recommend jumping to Huion, myself.
They have much more affordable tablets.
And apparently just as good as wacom =)

Whoop! I am the best at disapearing :p
After a million and one tablet reviews I've decided to buy a Gaomon M10K2018
I reaaaally wanted a wacom but I didn't want to buy a refurbished one, those seem the be the only ones within my price range. Because the wacoms I liked ended up being to pricey x.x;;
As for the youtube reviews I found them to be a bit to biased considering companies pay off the youtubers to say really nice things about the tablets they're reviewing :<
But the youtube videos are a nice way to actually see how the tablet draws when used.
I mainly relied on amazon verified user reviews and some recommendations I've collected from here and other websites >u<
My tablet isn't coming in until the 9th so when it does come in I'll let you know how it works, if your interested ;w;
Thanks for all the recommendations everyone :D
