The difference between XPPen deco and artist pro is huge or its just simply small features different?

sorry for starting this kind of discussion on your post @blackcrowcrowd
Sorry, I have no experience with them. I use a Wacom Intuos Pro which isn’t budget friendly, but I tested XPPen display tablet a couple of times and the experience is similar. I scribbled on a few "cheaper" wacom tablets though and they were not budget friendly and not up to my comfort.

The drawing itself is pretty similar on all tablets, but the difference between them are the button placement/number, the pen (though copy each other nowadays), cable (usb C or classic Usb A), and the size. Don't get a small one for cheaper price, get a middle one as that is better for wrist health in the long run. Wrong button placement can disrupt your workflow. A pen with battery is heavy and annoying to charge. Make sure you can actually connect your tablet to your device.

My personal bias is that wacom is pretty sturdy and will almost last forever, mine is 8 years old and still a beauty (you're fucked though if you don't have local wacom support in your country if you're unlucky and it breaks down). XPPen is a cheaper alternative with similar performance (just a step worse because cheaper). Huion I have no personal experience, but sometimes they overlook some details that are annoying (cable easy to slip out because they wanted super thin design).

I visited Currys today, I tried several type of Huion and Wacom too actually. Its cost around 330 quids for Medium, while the cheapest around 20. I think i will save some money first, I became sceptic with the durability for the cheap one. Thank you for the info.
