So the drawing area on this tablet is 9x5 inches and it is considerably larger than most of the small drawing tablets. I think the smalls working area will be more than enough for anyone out there. The area shown in green is the actual working is the rest of it can be used for placing your hand while drawing.
The active area in the tablet represents the entire screen of your monitor.
The Deco Pro Small's size can be compared to other Drawing tablets Medium size. So, If you are planning to buy the medium size then also keep in mind that you need a larger space on the table for placing it close to your laptop or android

The company claims it has over 8192 Pressure levels but in reality, I think it is more like a marketing strategy to attract customers in reality I felt like it was alike and I was able to find out that 1-1000 pressure level is almost impossible to take even a slight touch with the pen on the surface will give a pressure value between 1000-3000 range and if you want to go for the pressures which are in between 1-1000 will be impossible.
If you ask me does it work while drawing?. the answer is yes it works. The more pressure you apply, the much darker the lines get
So this graphics tablet has 10 customisable options and can be customized to any key combination/key on the keyboard. setting macro is available on this tablet
I think, what makes this Graphics Tablet So special compared to other tablets at this price range is that it has these mechanical and virtual wheels which can be customised to your preference. It makes drawing, painting and also workflow so easy.
While drawing with this tablet, I didn't face any issues with it. The workflow was superb because of the Custom buttons and the wheels. I was able to adjust the brush sizes really fast by turning the wheels and that made it very easy while painting the drawing.
This is a drawing of Earthworm Jim that I made using the Deco Pro on SketchBook Pro. It consists of over 69 layers
The background was designed using photoshop
I think the XP Pen Deco Pro Small is the best option if you are planning to buy a graphics tablet under 100 dollar or under 7500rs. I brought it from Flipkart on bigbillion day sale for 6599rs and for that money I think I got a good deal and I'm really happy with the purchase. I also want to thank Hive communities like LMAC, OCD, and Geekzone for supporting my work on Hive. Actually without Hive I could have never afford a graphics tablet like this.
