11" Standalone Drawing Tablet, Portable PicassoTab, No Computer Needed -X11

Short story... Both the tablet and the customer service are outstanding... Can't recommend highly enough. Longer story... I started learning Japanese, and---quickly realizing that my phone wasn't going to cut it--- needed a tablet to get a larger screen. Also needed a stylus to practice writing. This tablet has been absolutely great... Again, can't recommend it highly enough. I also tried a Samsung tablet that was almost twice the price, and wound up returning the latter because it wasn't nearly as good as the Picasso Tabb. The screen on the supposedely better Samsung tablet was VERY reflective... If there was any light shining on it would reflect images to one degree or another. The pen on the Samsung tablet was also terrible... Overall, the effect was that using the Samsung wasn't anything like writing on paper. I found it to be kind of a chore. As I say, I returned the Samsung tablet and kept this one... Apart from being about half , the price, this just wound up being much better in terms of feeling and looking like I'm actually writing Japanese on paper. But, to my surprise, I even found that I liked surfing the web and watching videos on the Picasso Tab more than the Samsung. I'm not an expert on any of this stuff, so all I can say is that the colors on the Picasso Tab just seemed a lot nicer and, hence, the overall experience more immersive. Though I only expected to be using the Picasso Tab for Japanese, I wound up using it for literally everything---haven't opened either of my laptops since I bought the Picasso Tab. Which brings us to the customer service... So I wound up using the thing A LOT... Like I was on it 8 to 10 hours a day, frequently doing Japanese while walking my dog. The result was that the poor tablet took one hell of a beating in terms of wear and tear. My dog is blind, and I have to carry her out of the house... So I wound up dropping it more times than I can count while trying to open the door and carrying her. The unfortunate but inevitable result was a screen full of cracks. Around 10 months post-purchase, I also started having troubles with the USB port... It got to the point where I couldn't charge the tablet. I didn't think either of these issues would be covered by the warranty... figured they'd count as "ordinary wear and tear"... So I contacted Simbans and asked how much it would cost to repair the USB port and cracked screen. They requested some info from me along some photos of the tablet. When they got back to me the next day, I had another pleasant surprise. They offered to fix the tablet for free and pay the cost of shipping it back to me.. All I had to do was pay for getting it to them. But that's not the best part. They also gave me another option that was even better! If I didn't want to get the old one fixed for free, I could pay $30 and they would send have Amazon ship me a brand new one. That's what I did. So for $30, I not only got a brand new tablet, I also got a brand new pen and lilkewise for all the other accessories. All in all, this is a great product at a reasonable price and, importantly, one that the manufacturer is willing to stand by. Based on my experience, can't recommend highly enough.

This brand has EXCELLENT customer service. And this tablet is amazing. I purchased last year for my son who is on the spectrum and obsessed with drawing and he uses it literally every single day he’s obsessed with it. It unfortunately stopped charging and the screen was randomly blacking out so I reached out to Simbans. I did have to pay $30 to send it back but they completely replaced the device, brand new shipped back at no cost and my son couldn’t be happier to have it back. I couldn’t be more please with how the company handles customers even after they have had their device for some time.

I am loving this tablet. They offer a lot of stuff with it. And its so easy to set up. Ive been practicing drawing stuff and it feels like im drawing on paper. The pen is weighted and feels like im holding a pen. Its offers apps that help tech you to draw and they even offer coupons that give you the pro version. I feel like ive been given so much for a great price.

The tablet itself is nice, with good touch sensitivity and performance. The pen is not as good, I had to get a replacement when the first one didn’t work properly.

Initial Inspection: Pros: ~Concepts Preinstalled ~Great Value ~Android 13 Cons: ~Screen Protector Application ~Performance ~Ghost Touching ~Pen Input Analysis: When I opened the package, the product was nice and secure. Yet, I noticed the pre-installed screen protector had a few bubbles. There was also dirt or dust stuck underneath which looked like a tiny dot. Ghost touching was also evident when I tried signing into Android "Google". But I was able to mitigate this by turning the screen on and off, not completely shutting it down. A few days after use, the pen would not register some inputs/touches. Lastly, the performance, while on an octa core cpu and 6 gb of ram, would still "feel" slow. Recommendation: Opt for a more popular brand, like Apple or Samsung, or try the older, well-reviewed product from this brand, or wait until they mature. Background: This was my first purchase of a standalone portable tablet because half of my classmates in college were using one. I love how this product comes with the app, Concepts, preinstalled, which enables me to have an infinite canvas for drawing and note taking. I checked other brands and this seemed like a very nice value for what I needed. However, once I got it, I was plagued by ghost touching. I tried my best to remove the problem by removing the pre-installed screen protector. I also went into settings to try and boost the performance (developer settings, background limit none, force close all apps on exit). I could have lived with the ghost touching because it was a simple fix (turning the screen on and off). This made me conclude that it is a software problem and not a hardware problem. Not long after, I would experience the pen, that was fine receiving instant input, now not registering some strokes. At this point, I concluded that I can not fix this. I wish to warn you of the inherent software and general product problems. If you are not experiencing any software problems right now, you may experience it in the future. I pray that this is a unique problem for my case. You should not have to experience this. While I may have critical points about the product, I do wish to support this company for what they do. I will check up on them in a few months or a few years.

I bought this tablet for my daughter who is quite passionate about drawing and art. This is a great starter tablet that comes with everything you need to get started including the case, pen, glove, pre installed drawing apps and a charger. The screen is huge and is the same size as my laptop screen which is great for drawing. It is a fully functioning tablet and the only complaint my daughter has had so far is that some games, such as Roblox, are a bit hard to play with the large screen and that there is no headphone jack. Outside of that great product! Customer service was wonderful too as the tip of the pen broke the first day out of the box. I contacted Amazon who offered to replace the entire tablet and when I declined they put me in touch with the Simban customer support. They responded quickly, the process of getting a free pen replacement was quick and easy ( you have a 90 day warranty on accessories from the company). We had a new pen within a week and so far it's been great.

Had a problem and it was immediately handled and we love the drawing tablet.

Everything has been working very well. I did experience some port rot but an email to customer service solved it VERY quickly, I sent in my old tablet and they ordered me a new one. (I was still under warranty, though past the initial 30 days.) All done quickly, politely and exclusively through email too, which I really appreciated. (Thanks Chris) I use it for a lot of stuff, primarily browsing, art and gaming. I've not experienced any lag. The apps that come preinstalled are meh (I recommend Krita or Clip Studio) but they can be uninstalled and there's a nice amount of space to play with. The quality for the price is actually really good. I do wish the pen was a little better, it's a bit simplistic, my phone apparently isn't compatible to be a shortcut device and I'm not dropping $40-$50 for the tabmate device. It's not a deal breaker for me though and a good app will provide on screen shortcuts for ease of use. Battery life is good (so far) and it charges quickly. Just treat the port well like you would/should any device and make sure you have some spare AAAA batteries. The pen doesn't burn through them but I like knowing I have plenty of spares besides the two they ship it with. The drawing glove was way too big for my hand though, so I just cut the index and middle finger off an old glove, works like a charm.

Davvero molto bello...con uno schermo fluido e molto grande. Anche la qualità costruttiva mi sembra eccellente e le app preistallate per il disegno sono assolutamente funzionali e fluide. Un bell'acquisto.

A mí niña y a mi nos ha encantado, se be robusta y el forro queda bien protegida, también el lapiz es bueno y las aplicaciones de dibujo sin geniales.

Purchased this tablet for my daughter as a Christmas present. Was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. Appears to be very well made and the large screen makes it so much easier to use for drawing. Works great as a typical android tablet as well for games, surfing etc. Had a small issue with the pen, but their support staff replied to me within the day and helped me resolve my issue. Would definitely recommend this product if you're looking for a good entry level drawing tablet for yourself or a loved one.

My disabled partner has less capabilities to do her artwork but this tablet has really helped her to continue making art without all the effort of setting up and putting away the materials. Great battery life, the pen is responsive and the apps are fantastic. I think my only criticism would be that the glove supplied isn't great but you can easily get a cheap one with slightly more padding. Overall though, no complaints and seems like really good value for money.

Estoy empezando con el dibujo digital y va genial. Los puntos de presion reaccionan muy bien y puedo trabajar bien los trazos. Viene con varias aplicaciones de dibujo y animacion que van perfecto. El tamaño es bastante grande lo que a mi gusto hace que sea mucho mas facil dibujar. El lapiz viene con una bateria integrada y otra de repuesto. Trae diferentes adaptadores para el cargador lo que tambien me parece genial. Puede expandirce su memoria. Simplemente me parece la mejor opcion para quienes estamos empezando y buscamos algo comodo y funcional! Tambien la utilizo para ver series, jugar y leer y hasta ahora todo ah marchado de maravilla. El envio ah sido bastante rapido. En general estoy muy satisfecha con la compra
