Review: Awesome service, awesome device - I had been looking for a graphics drawing tablet for awhile and my friend recommended XP since she has one. I saw one on desertcart for a really good price, but a company in my country said they don't import the Artist 12 since some had been damaged on the transit (not sure how true this is, as they were trying to sell me a more expensive alternative). I emailed both desertcart and XP about this, and they both got back to me quickly and were very reasurring that my product will be delivered safely. It came almost two weeks earlier than the expected delivery date! It was such a wonderful surprise, and it was delivered wrapped and packed and safe. I love my XP, it's compact, portable and really good quality. Thank you to both companies for the great product and service. ## Features - XPPen Artist 12 Pro, portable screen with a working area of 11.6 inches, Dimensions: 351 x 225 x 12.9 mm, thickness: 14 mm, resolution: 1920x1080 pixels, viewing angle: 178°.

Set up was relatively simple once I had a hdmi-dvi convertor (I ran out of hdmi slots on my graphics card), though I had issues until I plugged the power usb into the wall instead of drawing power from the computer. One of the preset buttons on the tablet takes you straight to the set up program, which was great! Setting the other buttons to shortcuts was a little fiddly, but I think that was user error, and calibrating the pen from there was quick. I'll admit, I started to have slight drift in where my pen touched to where the screen thought it was, but recalibrating was fine and I think it's fixed now? The colours are amazing on it, and completely different to what both of my monitors show! ## Frequently Bought Together - XPPen Artist12 Pro 11.6" Drawing Tablet with Screen Pen Display Full-Laminated Graphics Tablet with Tilt Function Battery-Free Stylus and 8 Shortcut Keys(8192 Levels Pen Pressure and 72% NTSC) - Parblo PR-01 Two-Finger Artist Glove for Graphics Drawing Tablet,Digital Drawing Glove for Right Hand and Left Hand,One Size - Drawing Tablet Sleeve Bag for XP-Pen Deco 01 V3, UGEE M708, Wacom Intuos Pro Medium PTH660 Case, Space Grey --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/151141151-xp-pen-artist-12-pro-graphics-tablet-with-hd-ips](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/151141151-xp-pen-artist-12-pro-graphics-tablet-with-hd-ips) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
