“All-in-one tablet” for Art on the Go<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n
\n

In our Ultimate Beginner’s Guide to Digital Painting, <\/a>we talked about the different tablets artists can go for, and we got a lot of questions about the “all-in-one” tablet. Is it good enough for pros? Who do you recommend it to?
The answer is: It depends on the artist!\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

All-in-one tablets like this\u00a02022 Apple 10.9-inch iPad<\/b> are perfect for artists who like to draw away from home and don’t want to drag a tablet and a laptop with them everywhere they go. These tablets are on the pricey side, but they are powerful enough to create professional-level artwork.<\/p>\n
