Back to back with Intous Draw, Hioun H610 Pro is also a great option for a professional artists and designers. The difference lies in the touchpad body itself, featuring extra buttons and the large size of the drawing surface, so the overall dimensions also add up to make it massive, to its disadvantage actually.

The most daunting features have to be the customizability features, a large drawing area and high-pressure sensitivity that allows you to sketch the boldness of your lines and curves with high precision. So much so that you have to get used to it and learn to apply a constant pressure but it is not a problem that you cannot easily overcome.
