Veikk Studio 16 review: affordable drawing tablet outperforms its price tag

An image of the Veikk pen display set up on a desk.

Pen displays used to be prohibitively expensive pieces of gear (some still are) that you would only find in the studios or pro artists and designers but these days the technology has advanced and the average price has come down. That is in part due to a more competitive market, with companies like XP Pen and Huion taking on the big boys like Wacom. Some smaller companies are in on the action too and Veikk is one such developer, aiming at taking its bite of that big digital pie.

For a look at some of the best options you can always check our guide to the best drawing tablets. I’ve used just about all the pen displays from all the manufacturers out there, at various levels of cost and feature set and I’ve been surprised by what can be found on the more budget friendly options. Veikk’s VK1200 was the first of theirs I had used a little while back and while functioned fine it was a little underwhelming, so my expectations weren’t that high when the Studio 16 was delivered. How wrong I was!
