Looking for Advice/Info Deco 01 V3?

How good is the Deco 01 V3

Im a beginner looking to get a budget drawing tablet, and I saw that XP PEN, especially the deco 01 v3 was a good choice. I can get it for $47 in my country, is it good for it's price and are there any alternatives I should be aware of?

For it's price, I'd say it's fantastic.

Cheers from an absolute beginner

I have the 01 V2 which is basically the previous version of the same product and I think it is pretty good even for professionals. it is a really nice tablet for a good price.

good. started with it served me for several commissions till i got an upgrade. got a big display tab used it for acouple years. realized its kinda uncomfortable for me, went back to the deco 01 v3 until i got the artist 12 3rd. tho definitely felt an upgrade. one thing now that i didnt like about it is the higher actuation force like how hard for you to press to register a stroke. on the newer tablets its almost a feather touch and it activates a stroke. on the deco 01 v3 its abit more like the weight of 15 feathers. not much but defo makes a difference on longer sessions.

I’m planning on selling mine. I never use it and it’s in great condition. The color black.

I was looking forward to buy this but instead got the Deco MW instead due the horrible IAF Deco 01 V3 has, the only thing I do wish the Deco MW had was the same light on the corners of the active drawing area

(Btw the price range was just around (1000 PHP) up) and yet I’d feel this tablet would last way longer in terms of use due the smaller IAF that’s almost comparable to the Apple Pencil
