Huawei Mediapad M2 10

Hi!

I want to start using Draw but I am not sure what tablet I should invest in! I know Huawei will launch a new tablet with a pressure sensitive pen. Will I be able to use it with Draw? It was not listed in the pens that were supported (it is called M-pen).

Do you have any suggestions in a great "low-cost" (I know there is nothing like that but you know what I mean) pad and pen that works?

TIA!

Hi Sandra.

I believe the only stylus currently supported in Sketch for Android is the SPen, but I'm checking in about this with the product team.

I'll post as soon as I hear back.

PERSONAL OPINION:

In addition to support for devices you may use regularly, check performance of the video feedback.

I have purchased multiple items for review, especially to see where cost effective savings might be made.  As a professional, it's important to have responsive tablet.

While $50~$100 savings seems like a good value, consider the life of your device.  If your performance isn't good, your daily experience of your favorite apps isn't worth the money saved.  Do you gain $100 in performance or professional use during the 1+ year?

PLUS!

If your hardware is responsive & dynamic, you may find even more uses for it than the one or two applications you may be considering.

I have had iOS & Android tablets/phones. I prefer Apple tablets.

I have/like both Apple and Windows PCs.

TEST TEST TEST! Always go to a store to test the device with the software you want to use.

Hi Sandra.

Sorry for taking so long to post again; I finally heard back from the product team:

They said they've heard good things about the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 With S Pen - P580NZKAXAR | Samsung US  but as Ko mentioned,  take this information as that: A suggestion. Always the safest/best thing to do is go test the app at a store with the software you're wanting to use.

I hope that helps.
