XPPen Officially Launches All-New Magic Drawing Pad for Artists Today
Digital arts company XP Pen has officially launched its innovative Magic Drawing Pad, a lightweight Android tablet that brings advanced drawing capabilities in a highly portable form. The pad was debuted at CES 2024 and just hit the market on January 22nd.
With professional-grade drawing features packed into a slim 6.9mm frame, the Magic Drawing Pad aims to make digital art creation possible anywhere at any time.
The star of the show is XP Pen's new X3 Pro Pencil, which uses EMR smart chip technology to enable 16,384 pressure levels—over 200% more than standard styluses. This allows for precise, lag-free drawing that mimics pen on paper.
The 12.2” X-Paper display has an anti-glare etched glass surface for paper-like feel. Its 3:2 ratio gives 18.5% more space than typical pads. Vibrant 16.77 million colors, 109% sRGB coverage, and TÜV eye comfort certification provide vivid visuals without strain.
On the go use is enabled by the Android OS, 8000mAh battery for 13+ hours of work, and reverse charging to share power with your phone. Dual cameras, large storage, kid modes, and preloaded artistic apps like ibis Paint round out the versatility.
Brian Huang, XP Pen Marketing Manager, says the Magic Drawing Pad “combines creativity and technology” to bring artists specialized tools in a sleek mobile package. With Samsung and Apple dominating the tablet market, XP Pen aims to compete using unique stylus tech, display capabilities, and lower cost.
The launch of the Magic Drawing Pad marks a milestone for digital artists. Its mobility and advanced drawing functions allow for “light creation” anytime, anywhere. XP Pen hopes to inspire self-expression through their innovative new product.
The XPPen Magic Drawing Pad delivers robust capabilities and versatility at an affordable price point. The tablet retails for $499.99, which is very competitive compared to similar offerings from Apple and Samsung.
