Anyone owns StarLite 5? Curious if it's good for drawing

I was kind of turned off by the keeb* being sold separately, also wasnt the aspect ratio meh.

Rule of thumb larger screen or surface means more fluid strokes, thus smaller screen means more fine motor skills and more tension in the hand and less* fluidity in the work.

In my limited experience Wacom pens don’t work with anything but Wacom tablets… I don’t own one of the “new” fancy ones with a screen, but capacitive (most new touch screens) don’t seem to detect the Wacom pen. There are pens out there that are supposed to work with any capacitive screen, but I don’t think they provide the force/angle information that the Wacom pen does.

This seems interesting, never seen it before.

But i’d say be careful as there’s not much information on the screen (refresh rate, gamut range) and it’s great to brag about you being able to switch parts but there’s not much info on that, i’d be surprised if you can swap anything beside the ssd and some ram. Also the marketing is a bit weird, the keyboard is showed at all time but the price shown is wothout until you try to actually check the price… Kinda scummy if you ask me.

A part of me still think it looks a bit like a barebone low quality tech that is almost useless in it’s option-less, low spec state.

That’s interesting details, thanks!

I saw a few posts on their reddit, like this, they were positive, but no one mentioned the drawing aspect…
