When i was busy trying to learn Photoshop. A tablet was my biggest must have device. Not only that It helps you eliminate the occurrence of Carpel Tunnel, but it also give you the capability to write or draw as normal; not something that uses a block of soap (mouse) or stone as its precision brush.
The golden egg when it comes to the ideal tablet device, are the Wacom products. They deliver the best performance, and was regarded by many artist. They have the simple line-up for semi-sophisticated people, to something professional; the career artist, and big time production studios. Price point was never the selling point for these type of devices. Prices start at 5600 for a 4″ x 6″ devices, and goes more as the realestate increases. I was partly devastated that i can’t simply get something that is the right size for my system. luckily some one did do something about it.
Genius, a Taiwanese company, which is norms for selling keyboard, mice and other computer accessories. Just started dipping itself in creating its own brand of tablet. What i got is the G-Pen M712X tablet; costing roughly a little more than its smaller cousin a 6″x10″ which cost around 4.6K. I was surprised that I got the bigger cousin; I’m expecting the smaller one, anyway I’ll try and see if i can get the actual value for the 712X model.
To start the review. Let’s get started with the aesthetic aspect of the unit. Something that is pretty important to people for some reason. I won’t give too much description about the physical appearance of the product. I’ll let you decide, based on the image after the break.
