What the PicassoTab X11 is

The PicassoTab X11 is a standalone drawing tablet: an 11 inch tablet with a pen that needs no computer. You draw directly on the screen in the apps it comes with.

The listing says its Artixo tutorials upgrade is designed for beginners. It arrives with 5 creative apps for sketching, painting, animation, tutorials and guided lessons, a lifetime Pro upgrade for the Concepts drawing app and a lifetime VIP upgrade for Artixo, plus a case, a drawing glove, a power adapter and a screen protector already fitted.

Key features, explained

Based on the manufacturer's Amazon listing.

  • Fully standalone

    It needs no computer and comes with its own drawing apps, so you can sketch without plugging into anything.

  • Laminated 11 inch 2K screen

    The listing says full lamination reduces parallax and glare, so the line appears right under the pen tip with a paper-like feel.

  • 4,096 level pressure pen

    Press lightly for thin lines and harder for thick ones. The listing pitches it for sketching, shading and illustration.

  • Lessons for beginners

    The lifetime Artixo VIP upgrade gives step-by-step lessons and guided practice, and the Xplore app offers drawing guides and instant help.

  • 6 GB RAM and 128 GB storage

    An octa-core processor, and storage expandable up to 1 TB. The listing says it handles drawing apps, schoolwork and streaming.

  • 6 bonus items in the box

    Two app upgrades (Concepts Pro and Artixo VIP) and four accessories: a tablet case, a drawing glove, a universal power adapter and a pre-installed screen protector.
