Digital Graphics Drawing Tablet, 4 Touch Keys 1 Panel, Battery-free Pen, Pad VEIKK A30 Electronic Writing Tablet for Laptop PC Android Mac Windows Linux and Chrome OS

I ordered this product in February 2020 and now I'm experiencing issues with my tablet so I thought it would be the perfect time to review this product.If you're on a budget and want an affordable tablet, I cannot recommend this product enough - it does the job, it functions well and is accurate even when I went through my PC upgrade from £1k all-in-one-powerful PC to a customised £2k well-built PC. All it takes is simple hand-eye coordination and if you have multiple monitors like me - fear not, it can be mapped to just one screen. Additionally, the tablet is also lightweight and a big upgrade for a beginner as I went from a HUION A5 tablet to a VEIKK A15 tablet (A4 sized), and the replacement parts are fairly affordable and if you've lost them - the warranty will cover you. When my pen nib was pushed too far into the pen, I received a new one shortly after contacting their support team.In terms of drivers - there was a slight issue with it as once you open the drivers, there is no window so you have to keep it open otherwise you'll need to reopen the program again. Sometimes it does open but there's no information or it'll stay stuck loading or "checking for updates" but it's OK, it can be an easy fix with a quick restart and overall, isn't mostly an issue unless you love to fiddle with the mapping and functions of the tablet.Speaking of which, it does allow you a variety of customized options. Would I say it's good for a beginner? Not necessarily due to the number of buttons and functions it has but once you get it all mapped out - it's quite efficient and favourable to use as you can tailor it to a variety of programs in a set of profiles. It can be overwhelming at the start but eventually, you'll learn where the buttons are and as I've said, you can change them for different apps. It is budget-friendly for a beginner, though. You can even check if the pen pressure is working on your tablet so it's also easy to identify issues and fix them accordingly.I personally use a software called Krita and sometimes it's a bit of a hassle dealing with tablet problems and Krita configuration. It's just going back and forth between switching WinTab, Windows Pen Ink, and replugging your tablet to reset pen pressure etc. I'll just say that for me, there was a bit of a conflict that was easy to fix but since it's a common problem, it's just mere convenience. Though I will say that it has happened more now that the tablet is suffering hardware issues than when I initially bought it.The issue that I have now is that I tend to rest on my tablet a lot and apparently, really hard. So to say that it's lasted this long up until now - it has a durable life for its price. The issue I have is the pen pressure glitching in Krita and when I reconnect, the buttons stopped functioning and also the pen pressure still doesn't work no matter what I do (basically, the tablet just stopped recognising my inputs). Still a good tablet to have as a backup and will still work in other programs that do not require pen pressure like OSU. If you are experiencing something similar, I'd say to save the tablet as a backup.The cable for connecting the tablet to any PC is a male USB to male USB-C (if I have my terms correct). I will say that the initial cable that came with did not last very long. I don't know what made the connectivity faulty but it stopped linking the two devices together. However, I am currently using a cable for the Logitech G733 headset and it's working perfectly fine. So I suppose any data cable works.Also, I have to say, I'm absolutely raving about the battery-free pen - the best purchase anyone can make if you're on a budget and yes, this does come with replacement parts but if you need any or need a replacement, VEIKK will have you covered in no time if you contact their support (as long as you have your warranty). It's also compatible with Windows Ink so you can definitely write in your text if you want to. Just contact support if you have your warranty; make the best of it and don't waste it.In terms of it being easy to use - it depends. There's a lot of buttons and you can make them as complex as you want but I will reinstate that it does get easier to use the longer you use it. So... it's not easy from the get-go, is what I'm trying to say, I guess. Anyone can learn their tablet layout within a week anyway.Highly recommend it if you're on a budget, have good hand-eye coordination, and are a beginner. Just be wary that the driver can be a bit finnicky.

I’m so excited to bring you guys a review of the new Veikk A15 drawing tablet. They recently reached out to me and asked I look at their product and I have to say I am pretty pleased with it. It arrived super quickly via Amazon, the box was a touch damaged but this is down to Amazon and not Veikk. Box was clean with all information that you needed, the clean graphics of the box gave me this kind of ports car vibe. I dunno why.I got the version that came with a glove, which is a lil snug on my hand so if you’ve got larger hand it might not fit comfortably, it was just right for me and I’ll be using it over my wacom glove. As well as the glove, inside the box you’ll find replacement nibs, there are only one type of nibs from what I can see on their website which is the former plastic ones. The pen, the usb power cable and of course the tablet.First things first, the pen. It was a really nice size, it’s also a non rechargeable pen so no worries about it not working suddenly because it needs a charge up. However I found it a bit light, this is probably just because the pen to my other tablet is heavy and I’ve grown used to that. This is something that can be eased with a pen sleeve so is only one small issue.The power cable is honestly pretty cool, there is so wrong way to plug it in, so regardless of if you’re right or left handed it’ll be out of your way. The tablet itself was bigger than I pictured inside my head, with a 10x6 in work are. There are 12 configurable buttons, I admit I was a bit stupid and honestly thought the red circle was a dial of some kind. Should have seen me spend 30 minutes trying to work out why I couldn’t program zoom to it. I should have read everything first, speaking of the dial comes in four colours I believe? Black, gold, blue and red.The work area has a papery texture, but not overly textured giving a natural drawing feel.Now onto the main part. Installing was a lil bit of a pain for me, the drivers were easy to find on the website. However the first time I installed they didn’t take. It wasn’t til I realised I needed to uninstall my pre-existing tablet drivers that they finally worked. I use mainly Paint tool sai 2 and Clip Studio Pro.Despite my earlier worries of the pen being too light and causing me issues, it didn’t, in fact I was able to draw for a good few hours before wrist pain kicked in and I needed a break, the wrist pain isn’t something I can blame on the tablet either, if you’ve got healthy joints and stretch before drawing I don’t see it being an issue.I LOVE, LOVE the sensitivity on this tablet, like I can not express how happy I was while drawing. The sensitivity and pressure was fluid, there were no big jumps in brush size. I’m very heavy handed with my pens and I rarely get those subtle movements. I hate to say it though, but the pressure on this might be better than my $600+ tablet that I use daily.I really enjoyed drawing with this, it took a lil time to get used to drawing on it as my currently tablet has been a digital screen tablet, it’s been three or four years since I last used my bamboo.I also want to add their tech support was spot on. I had issues getting the tablet to work with Clip Studio pro, my main art program, if I had dual monitors. We sat down over teamviewer and troubleshooted. It was an easy fix but they were great and kept in contact with me the whole time. (If you get this problem just switch which monitor is 1 and 2)The TLDR;Basically if you’re starting out or professional I’d recommend this tablet, it’s affordable, well made and great to work with.ProsAffordable. At £45.99 currently I can’t fault the price.Professional QualityLooks greatAmazing to draw withConsPencil is a little light weight for me.
