Score: 80/100
XP-Pen Deco 01 V3
Score: 79/100Rankings
The Gaomon M10K offers a large drawing surface, tilt-supporting battery-free pen and ten shortcut keys, making it a solid entry-level tablet. Driver stability and lack of Bluetooth limit its appeal for power users and mobile creators. Best suited for beginners and hobbyists who value workspace size over premium software integration.
The XP-Pen Deco 01 V3 offers a generous active area, 16K pressure sensitivity and tilt support in an ultra-thin design. It lacks Bluetooth connectivity and detailed accessory information, which may affect convenience. Best suited for beginners and hobbyists who need a portable, high-spec tablet.

Professional reviewers commend the Gaomon M10K for its solid build, large active area, high-resolution surface, and the battery-free pen with 8192 pressure levels and tilt, noting it offers excellent value for beginners and hobbyists. However, they caution that the driver software is only satisfactory and that the express keys may not satisfy power users seeking deep customization, while the pen's weight can be a drawback for precise work.
Everyday users consistently praise the tablet's generous drawing space, lightweight design, and the included accessories that make it ready to use out of the box. Common praise centers on its price-to-performance ratio and smooth drawing experience, while recurring complaints focus on the pen's heft, a soft pressure curve, unreliable Android OTG connectivity, and the absence of Bluetooth.
