should i buy a used intuos pro 2017 in 2026. I was planning to buy an xp pen artist pro 16 gen 2 as my first pen display but I’m a bit worried about ergonomics since i have a bad shoulder and I’m also worried about the cable managing. I’m moving soon also so the pth-660 being lightweight is a big plus. However I’m worried about the driver not supporting the tablet in some years from now. I’m wondering if I can just use the old driver and not update to the latest one, what would happen if I keep using the old driver, will it get faulty. And the xp pen artist pro 16 gen 2 can be switched to a pen tablet also so I can get 2 in 1 and not having to contemplate on the choice much? If I buy the intuos pro 2017 now I can save to get a cintiq 24 2025 with stand in the future because I don’t want to settle with the foldable legs on the artist pro 16 gen 2, worrying it might strain my neck. Since it’s gonna be my first screen table, I’m very worried. Should I go for it or just resort to the intuos pro 2017, but I would need assurance about the driver support. My previous tablet is an xp pen deco 02

I’m planning to get a 16 inch pen display and stuck between these 2. I’m an art student doing illustrations. I’ve done some research and notice that the pro tends to be for people who is using it for their profession like me while the artist 16 3rd is for hobbyists. I prefer the sleek design of the Artist 16 3rd because it has 2 dials and 8 shortcut buttons on it and its design being a bit lighter but the resolution is just 1080p, I wonder if I’m gonna miss out much if I choose it. However, the Artist pro 16 gen 2 is well, “pro” with higher resolution and stuffs.

I’ll appreciate anyone giving me a review of these 2 to aid in my decision thank you.

Im an art student and im new to photography so i wanna start with a phone. My last phone was iphone 11 and it got a cracked screen so I can’t see 2/3 of it. I’m interested in iphone 17 pro at first thanks to the third telephoto lens, vapor chamber, bigger battery, 50% more ram and since iphones are very expensive in my country i’m looking to use it for the next 5 years before upgrading but the design is not for me. But now I’m leaning towards the iphone 17 more because the appearance is just better and the price is much cheaper. I was wondering if the battery on both phones are much differen, I’ve been watching battery test and saw that there’s just 1-hour-difference which i can live with, but some tests has a total 3-hour-difference.
