Review: Excellent tablet at this price point. - I've been using my new tablet for a bit under a month and a half now - about 5 weeks all together. I bought it because I do 3D graphic work, and graphic design which gets very hard to do using a mouse with a "single pressure" mouse button. My previous tablet was smaller than this one and I kept hitting the borders far too much. (relative pen movement!) The physical aspects of the tablet are good - it's very sturdy. The internals of the tablet must have a metal frame, because even holding it in my left hand and drawing with my right was easy to do, and it didn't bend nor flex - or even squeak a little. Though it's best to use a tablet on a flat worktop rather than in your hands. On the reverse side there's 4 wide circular feet that stop the tablet slipping on your desk. The buttons need a light finger touch to click, but give a good "clicky feedback" when pressed. Importantly they don't fail to make contact once you've felt them "click", which can be very frustrating and something I keep a purposeful eye out for. I wondered if it was because they were new - but after 6 weeks of use, they still work entirely well. If you've not come across this before - it's when a button fails to trigger when you press it till it clicks - until you press a little bit harder. The worst case is where it ruins the creative flow - say when you switch from flood fill to draw using a button, only to find you've just filled the entire sky because the button wasn't detected! The wheel is an interesting and modern addition to the tablet. It works on its own - and the chrome is grippy enough that it doesn't slip. It's my preffered way of using it. If you want even grippier material - the tablet comes with a green rubber "puck" that pushes gently into the hole of the wheel. With or without the puck, the wheel behaves the same. It has a smooth friction feel to it - like spinning the volume control on a HiFi. It doesn't spin around like a loose toy wheel on a truck. It doesn't "click" as you spin it, it's a smooth rotation. It can be used to replace two buttons on the keyboard - one for rotating left, and one for rotating right. So for instance you can use it to zoom a canvas, or rotate an object around an axis in 3D. While setting it up, I found I could scroll a web-page with it! It behaved very much like a mouse-wheel! (without the click-click-click) The wheel is covered on the underside of the tablet though the hole goes right through. It means you won't find the spinner sticking if you put the tablet on a couch armrest. The tablet has a USB C plug situated just to the side of the spinner. These plugs can connect either way around, so the USB 90 degree angled cable can still be pointed downwards (towards or away from you) if you swap hands and rotate the tablet around. You get a slippy spandex type of glove to stop your hand from catching on the smooth tablet surface - I found I haven't needed it. If you're hands are not super dry or a bit oily, the glove will stop it stuttering over the surface. The tablet during use is fantastic. The "report rate" is 266 - which means the tablet lets Windows know where the pen is 266 times a second. That's a position update every 3.76 milliseconds! I was NOT able to notice any kind of delay with such a short latency. It felt I was drawing on the screen. The pen of the tablet is very well designed and light in use. It's very grippy on the fingers (as they mentioned in the product details). I've never had my fingers slip down the pen and need me to correct the positioning of my hand. Which they have done with other tablets I've used. It's a very light pen, which you may need to get use to if you've used pens in the past with batteries in them. Having no batteries means you never get caught out! If you use it with your laptop on the go - if your laptop has power so to does your pen! The clearance distance of the pen is about 3 centimeters - which is excellent. It means you can take the pen 3 cm up from the tablet while still being able to control your cursor. Not so important for absolute cursor positioning - because the cursor will re-adjust on the screen when you place the pen back down. But VITAL for relative cursor mode. When you're not making pencil marks, you have a good distance away from the tablet before the pen loses contact - and stops moving on the screen. A pen with less clearance is annoying to use, you stop writing and lift the pen, and your cursor vanishes! You end up battling with the device playing "hover pen" a millimeter away from the tablet trying not to draw but keeping it close. Not so with this pen. GOOD. The pen tip can "feel" 8192 levels of pressure. I've found this is far more than I need, and for my uses just half that is needed for drawing, sketching, and molding. The extra sensitivity is NOT wasted though - using the configuration software I set it up that 4000 "pressure" (half force on the pen tip) is set at maximum. It's like going from a 2H pencil to 2B. It meant I was able to draw a heavy mark with much less pressure than I would otherwise need, AND not lose accuracy on pressure readings because I still had 4000 pressure levels! As an extra bonus - the pen nibs also last longer. If you want that huge range of 0 to 8192 pressure levels, you don't need to tweak anything to start with because that's how it's set up. I had a problem with the eraser in Photoshop to begin with. I found it went from "No erasing" to "Full erasing" with barely a touch. It wasn't the pens fault though! I looked later in the "Erase tool" settings in Photoshop, and they were all incorrectly set. So a little tip - the "eraser end" of the pen uses the "Erase tool" settings of Photoshop. It doesn't just change the ink color of the pen tip, or use a unique "eraser tool" for tablets. The eraser tool works well, and its pressure control is accurate. To use it you just flip your pen around. There's one button on the side of the pen - it's default is to "Right click" - in Photoshop this will bring up the "Pen settings" local menu. There's 6 replacement pen tips in the pen caddy - which will last you months, if not years - depending on the frequency you use the tablet, and the maximum pressure you use to draw. There's a little metal disc inside the caddy that you use to press the pen's tip against to pull out an old warn tip before you insert a new one. There's YouTube videos showing you just how to do this if you google XP-Pen tip replacement video. I didn't have any setup issues in Windows 10. Once I plugged it in, Windows detected it, and after a few seconds it reported it was installed. The software that comes with the tablet is accessible in your system tray. Normally you'd see this in the lower right of your screen. It comes with all the usual tablet controls: 1: Relative/Absolute positioning. (relative is like a mouse behaves - if you pick the pen off the tablet and put it down again, the cursor carries on from where it was at. Absolute is where the pen position ON the tablet is where it appears on the screen, so if you pick it up on the lower left of the tablet, and place the pen on the top right, your screen cursor will ALSO jump to the top right.) 2: Pen pressure - This is great! You have a "line chart" that you can adjust. For me I had a very steep line hitting the top power half way across the chart. This is the equivalent of maxing out the "software cursor pressure" at half-pressure of the physical pen. It's a great finger fatigue tip! There's a little bar that shows you how hard you're pressing. If a program isn't detecting your pen presses, you can use this panel to check the tablet/pen is working, and then blame the other program (I've yet to have my tablet glitch). This is VITAL when looking for tec-support, as a particular software glitch isn't something XP-Pen can solve, and you'd waste time contacting the wrong people. 3: Area of screen - You can set what part of the screen the tablet is for, and which monitor if you have more than one. 4: Action buttons / Roller wheel - These can be configured to be any keyboard keys, and also with a system key, such as Alt, or Ctrl. You can assign different programs different key assignments. (YAY!) The wheel also inputs as key presses. (As does a mouse wheel internally). So anything you can do by the keyboard, you can assign the wheel or buttons to do. Cons: I'm really having a problem thinking of any. It tracks the pen accurately, the software works without crashing, the pen pressure is consistent. The cable doesn't fall out, nor wiggle. The response time between the pen moving and the screen is less than 4 milliseconds (instant). The tablet is not flimsy. Oh - the pen feels a bit "cheap" for a tablet. But that's only because it's lightweight because there's no battery! I've not damaged it in a month and a half use. It's still going strong. If anything a lightweight pen is better! Less strain on the hand. And do I really want a weight "lie" of some chunk of metal inside the pen to weigh it down? No! It's the same weight as a "real world pencil" like a Derwent Pro pencil. So once I got use to it, it was like using a real pencil and not a tablet (battery filled heavy) pencil. If you were to get a cheap tablet you end up fighting with it. You are struggling to use a glitchy pen on a scratchy PC tablet that's moving a cursor on the screen a fraction later. Not this tablet! It's a joy to use. It gets out of the way while I'm drawing. After a minute or two I'm using a pencil connected to the screen - I do my art, and my tools help me. They're not hindering. The performance at this price level is excellent. Review: Great tablet, and mostly works in Linux too! - I currently use a Wacom Bamboo Touch, but was looking for something just a little bit bigger, and a bit more modern looking. I went with the XP-PEN Deco 02 as I liked the idea of the wheel, and the price was good. I'm a long time Linux user, so I wasn't sure if the Deco 02 would work with Linux, but it MOSTLY does. OK, the wheel doesn't work (currently) in Linux, but the professional look of the tablet, and the design of the pen, more than makes up for it. Let's face it, you buy a graphics tablet for the pressure sensitivity. As long as that works I'm good. I always use the keyboard for shortcuts anyway. The tablet is nice and thin with the wheel middle left which has three shortcut buttons above it, and three below it. Supplied is a lime green rubber 'plug' which fits into the hole in the wheel giving you a knob to turn for whatever you assign to the wheel. The pen is shaped more like a traditional hexagonal pencil (which I REALLY like), battery-free and made of a nice firm rubber with plenty of grip to it. It has a nib already fitted, an eraser on the other end, and a customisable button in the middle of the pen. It comes in a nice hard storage tube which feels like it's made of metal. One end unscrews to take the pen in/out of the storage tube, and the other end of the tube unscrews to give you access to the eight spare nibs. If you use a tablet as much as I do then you always need spare nibs. A nice touch is that the tablet comes with a drawing glove. It's essentially a glove that covers the last two fingers of your hand to stop your hand smearing the tablet (or screen as you'd see in some devices). Pressure sensitivity (in Linux anyway) can be adjusted in your chosen software. I mostly use MyPaint and it has a line graph in settings to adjust pressure sensitivity. This tablet is definitely worth the money. Even with the wheel not working in Linux it still elbows out my (now old) Wacom Bamboo Touch. It can take a while to adjust your drawing to the many levels of pressure sensitivity this tablet has, but once you have the right settings in your software it's a joy to use. NOTE: I've asked XP-PEN and they're currently working on a Linux driver (currently in beta and downloadable from their site) which we can but hope will make the wheel work in Linux. If, for whatever reason, your distro doesn't detect the Deco 02, you can try installing the DIGImend drivers to see if that helps. ## Features - User friendly: XP-PEN Deco 02 is designed for both right and left hand users. Six round, customizable shortcut keys that fit easily to your finger tip for creating a highly ergonomic and convenient work platform - Improve work efficiency: The drawing tablet XP-PEN Deco 02 streamlines your workflow by its sleek newly designed silver roller with hollow mirror - Easily control: 10 x 5.63 inch working area.

The new advanced P06 passive pen was made for a traditional pencil-like feel! With its non-slip & tack-free flexible glue grip, you will not brush it with the edge of your thumb and accidentally switch to the erase tool halfway through a drawing and have to undo. 8192 levels of pen pressure sensitivity, accelerate your every stroke for fast and fluid performance - Compatibility: The drawing tablet XP-Pen Deco 02 supports Windows 10/8/7(32/64bit), Linux (Detailed versions), Mac OS X version 10.10 or later.

So once I got use to it, it was like using a real pencil and not a tablet (battery filled heavy) pencil. If you were to get a cheap tablet you end up fighting with it. You are struggling to use a glitchy pen on a scratchy PC tablet that's moving a cursor on the screen a fraction later. Not this tablet! It's a joy to use. It gets out of the way while I'm drawing. After a minute or two I'm using a pencil connected to the screen - I do my art, and my tools help me. They're not hindering. The performance at this price level is excellent. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tablet, and mostly works in Linux too! *by R***R on 10 August 2018* I currently use a Wacom Bamboo Touch, but was looking for something just a little bit bigger, and a bit more modern looking. I went with the XP-PEN Deco 02 as I liked the idea of the wheel, and the price was good. I'm a long time Linux user, so I wasn't sure if the Deco 02 would work with Linux, but it MOSTLY does. OK, the wheel doesn't work (currently) in Linux, but the professional look of the tablet, and the design of the pen, more than makes up for it. Let's face it, you buy a graphics tablet for the pressure sensitivity. As long as that works I'm good. I always use the keyboard for shortcuts anyway. The tablet is nice and thin with the wheel middle left which has three shortcut buttons above it, and three below it. Supplied is a lime green rubber 'plug' which fits into the hole in the wheel giving you a knob to turn for whatever you assign to the wheel. The pen is shaped more like a traditional hexagonal pencil (which I REALLY like), battery-free and made of a nice firm rubber with plenty of grip to it. It has a nib already fitted, an eraser on the other end, and a customisable button in the middle of the pen. It comes in a nice hard storage tube which feels like it's made of metal. One end unscrews to take the pen in/out of the storage tube, and the other end of the tube unscrews to give you access to the eight spare nibs. If you use a tablet as much as I do then you always need spare nibs. A nice touch is that the tablet comes with a drawing glove. It's essentially a glove that covers the last two fingers of your hand to stop your hand smearing the tablet (or screen as you'd see in some devices). Pressure sensitivity (in Linux anyway) can be adjusted in your chosen software. I mostly use MyPaint and it has a line graph in settings to adjust pressure sensitivity. This tablet is definitely worth the money. Even with the wheel not working in Linux it still elbows out my (now old) Wacom Bamboo Touch. It can take a while to adjust your drawing to the many levels of pressure sensitivity this tablet has, but once you have the right settings in your software it's a joy to use. NOTE: I've asked XP-PEN and they're currently working on a Linux driver (currently in beta and downloadable from their site) which we can but hope will make the wheel work in Linux. If, for whatever reason, your distro doesn't detect the Deco 02, you can try installing the DIGImend drivers to see if that helps. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tablet at an affordable price. *by M***E on 1 October 2018* To start off with, I would like to mention that my last two previous tablets were both Wacom Intuos tablets, a more expensive and well know brand. This was my first time trying out a different kind of tablet. While I expected the tablet would work decently, I was not expecting much for the cheaper price but the Deco 02 as surpassed all my expectations. I adore this tablet. I take it almost everywhere with me, which is easy seeing as it is so light and easy to transport, and use it all the time. I have been using the tablet for over a month now and it has shown no issues. Any driver problems, which were a regular occurrence with my old tablets, have not happened at all with this one and it remains slick, responsive no matter how long I use it for. It was easy to install and ran smoothly from the get go. It was delivered quickly and within the estimated delivery time, and the tablet came with various useful extras, including an artist's glove and a cylinder compartment for storing the pen as well as it's extra nibs. The Deco 02 is able for both right and left handed use, has a work space of 10 x 5.63 inches and a pen pressure level of 8192. The tablet has been used in a variety of programs, Adobe Photoshop and Animate, Clip Studio Paint, Toon Boom Harmony, even just for using an internet browser and it works flawlessly in all of them, no compatibility issues at all. I do have issue with the tablet's pen, however. The pen itself is fine, incredibly light and comfortable to hold, but its the button on the side of the pen that I have issue with. It has been designed so that it is flat against the surface of the pen, rather than extruding out, but this makes it really difficult to press. It can be a real pain to have to stop constantly to search for the button in order to press it, something that would take less than a second if it was make more obvious against the pen's surface. It's such a tiny detail but I feel it makes a world of difference. Overall, I feel like this is a perfect tablet for beginners, being really simple and easy to set up and use while not being as expensive as others. The only issue I have had with it so far is with the pen's button and other than that, I am extremely happy with the product and plan on using it for a very long time. ## Frequently Bought Together - XP-PEN Deco 02 Graphics Drawing Tablet With Hexagonal Design Stylus & 6 Shortcut Keys 8192 Levels Pressure - XP-PEN ACJ09 Drawing Tablet Seelve Waterproof Protective Case Carrying Bag for Graphics Tablets under 10 Inches - XP-PEN Drawing Anti-fouling Lycra Graphics Two-Finger Glove S/M/L Size (S) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/65314915-xp-pen-deco-02-graphics-drawing-tablet-with-hexagonal-design](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/65314915-xp-pen-deco-02-graphics-drawing-tablet-with-hexagonal-design) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-27*
