Hi Chipp!
Thanks a lot for sharing.
@You : "...I used iPad was always the little known neu.notes+..."
Thanks for the tip. For my 2D vector painting I use the excellent "Concepts" because it's highly optimized for iPad Pro, but for sure I'm going to take a deep look also to "neu.notes+".
@You : "...FWIW, I've switched to Android tablets and now mostly use the Android equipped Google Pixelbook..."
Oh...great device, no doubt. Was one the devices that I reviewed before buying the iPad Pro.
It's without doubt a very very capable all-rounder device with the "plus" of the Android OS that I much prefer over the "very bad" iOS (also iOS 11 is bad IMHO :)
It has great overall performance. A Very good piece of HW/SW from Samsung.
But as I've said some times ago here on this forum, I spent many months collecting all possible information from YouTube, web, opinion from artists, before buying the iPad Pro 12.9 second gen.
Bear in mind that I purchased the iPad Pro for ONE and ONLY one reason : having the best (actually) device for digital painting in mobility.
I use it almost exclusively for that purpose and sometimes for some quick video editing with the excellent Lumafusion.
So after tested many many things and considered all aspects and listened the opinion of many very talented digital painters, I purchased this iPad.
From the point of view of a all-rounder device, the Google Pixelbook or the Microsoft Surface (at least their top tier versions) are a better choice compared to iPad Pro, for many reasons.
But when it comes to digital drawing on an interactive and multitouch canvas iPad Pro actually has no competitors.
With the most Apps the Apple Pencil has really almost ZERO parallax and ZERO lag, the display is awesome and with the best color calibration compared to the extra-saturated OLED display, with Apps like Procreate or Sketckbook Pro the Apple pencil is amazing, super fast and has the most natural feel you can find in a digital stylus.
And it has excellent tilt support (with the right Apps) and with the 120Hz refresh rate display it's....awesome.
So, from the point of view of "digital painting" and "2d work" actually no other interactive display can beat the iPad Pro.
But...clearly it has also some cons that I really don't like :
- The Pencil feels to much like "rubber on glass". You have to get used to its behavior before creating good digital paintings
- Not so many Apps leverage on the processing power of the iPad Pro. Many apps are not optimized for it.
- The pencil need recharging and has no buttons
- The screen is not enough oleophobic (for my liking)
- iOS....iOS....what can say....I really hate it !!!! Android it's far better!!!!
Anyway...I purchased the iPad Pro almost only for digital paintings and 2D works and for this purpose it's still the best.
Have a nice day and...ciao!
I will let you know about my test of "neu.notes+"
