I use a 24inch XP-PEN Artist 24 Pro https://www.xp-pen.com/product/602.html drawing tablet monitor at work and I love it. I had an opportunity to use an iPad + Pencil when i visited my parents a few months ago and I absolutely hated it. Maybe the learning curve is steeper, but using it the first time felt a lot less natural than the first time i used a XP-PEN Artist . Maybe its how smooth the iPad is, how wonky the pressure sensitivity is, the smaller bezels, or that i was using the wrong apps, but i just could not get used to it. The iPad is so much more portable and versatile.
