Hi everyone… i was wondering if anyone could give me sugestions on tablets under 500€ but get the job done?
You won’t have to settle for just “getting the job done” for that amount. You can get most of the Intuos 4 tablets for under that price, which are the quality standard. The medium tablet is the “sweet spot” for size vs value for most people.
Unless youre talking about a Tablet Computer.
thanks for the reply Spyndel!
And no, i wasnt meaning a tablet computer… i was checking the intuos 4… for around 300€ for the m and 200€ for the S… does the extra size justify the 100€?
Like I said, the medium is the sweet spot for most people. You can work on a small size for a lot of things, but most people are going to be more comfortable on a medium. Larger than medium that just depends on personal preference (personally, I do prefer a large tablet) or specific work needs…it’s not necessarily “better” in an objective sense.
I’d say if you can afford it, yes, get the medium. A tablet is not a place you want to skimp. It will be the portal through which you interact with all your graphics software. You want to be comfortable.
[edit] I’m assuming you’re posting this from wanting to graphically intensive work, and high detail stuff in Zbrush. If your needs are casual, like light photo retouching or something, you don’t need that much tablet. You could get the smaller introductory Bamboo model, spend less money and be satisfied. If you want to do serious, detail intensive work, though, you will never regret spending money on a better model.
I have large and medium. I never use the large one. Also have a small one I often use when I have little room for it. Some like the big ones but I find them cumbersome and overkill.
I had the intuos 4 small and it was to small so then I splurged and got a Cintiq and I love every bit of it!
Used cintiq 21UX are available under 1000€ in the moment because people are switching to newer ones.
1600x1200 Resolution. Brilliant display for its age.
I have one Intuos 2 A5 and one I2 A4.
Both bought used and they did a brilliant job.
After I bought the cintiq (also used) they are not used anymore. (except small one coming travelling with me sometimes)
500€ tablet + 500€ monitor you should calculate 
You will love it!
