I searching for a tablet for drawing and discovered this one. Anyone tried drawing on it? I wondering if the experience is good.

On the page they doesn’t mention if the screen supports drawing pens, but it’s possible to order an MPP pen with it, so I assume that it works with Wacom or Surface pens?

    This seems interesting, never seen it before.

    But i’d say be careful as there’s not much information on the screen (refresh rate, gamut range) and it’s great to brag about you being able to switch parts but there’s not much info on that, i’d be surprised if you can swap anything beside the ssd and some ram. Also the marketing is a bit weird, the keyboard is showed at all time but the price shown is wothout until you try to actually check the price… Kinda scummy if you ask me.

    A part of me still think it looks a bit like a barebone low quality tech that is almost useless in it’s option-less, low spec state.

      Uh, the refresh rate is 60hz the gamut is listed on the specification section. The ram is soldered as it could not be increased it is 16gb which is the max supported by the n200.

      main board, screen, battery, daughter board and all the parts can be swapped, they sell them on their website.

      I agree the keyboard marketing sucks and the keyboard itself isn’t great either. Granted its nice to have a cheaper option without the keyboard, but in current Linux tablet state you probably still want it.

      The specs are pretty decent for a tablet and the price of the device. Can handle most tablet tasks and non graphically intensive. I use it for programming and arts and anything needing more power I offload the compile to my PC.

          right yeah my bad, all the io is on the right this one doesn’t have a daughter board. The daughter board is for their other laptop. I did buy their pen but its pretty average it works on other tablets but I replaced it with an mp0p 2.0 pen

      That’s interesting details, thanks!

      I saw a few posts on their reddit, like this, they were positive, but no one mentioned the drawing aspect…
