Wacom, a Japanese company founded in 1983, is a longstanding leader in the digital art sector. The company produces graphics tablets and has recently iterated on its Movinkpad series, an Android tablet for digital art creation. I tested the Movinkpad 11, the first tablet in the series, which costs $500 and is an affordable entry point for digital artists.

The Movinkpad 11 is 11.45 inches, weighs 1.3 pounds, and comes with 8 gigabytes of memory and 128 gigabytes of storage. It is battery-free and includes the Pro Pen 3, a 6.3-inch stylus with three side buttons that can be programmed. The tablet is easy to set up, requiring the creation of a pin number for logging in. Wacom Canvas, a free digital art software, comes with the Movinkpad for basic tools, while Clip Studio Paint, a paid app, offers a larger range of features.

Despite having competitors, such as the iPad, the Movinkpad provides a more focused and elegant solution, making it a fun and mid-priced option for digital art enthusiasts.
