Very nice!
It arrived today, I can say it's a great product, very good quality build, easy install, it will be a little hard to get use to this one because I used an "Artist-12 Pro" one before with the red wheel, and the paper-protection filter on this one is a bit smooth, the pen slides fast on the screen, but is more of a "get use to it" for me, the product is very good!

A good purchase
A good purchase for my presentations and other sketches. Very light weight.
I'm sorry that my phone is not included in the list of phones that have a full-featured USB-C port
In 5 days I had the display - Bucharest RO - which made me very happy.

You could buy a new stylus if the pen is lost. You could search \"PH20B\" to find the stylus that is suitable for Artist 12 2nd Gen.

Question in a bit of a hurry, because Black Friday offer ends today...
1) I'm mostly interested in this Artist 12 (2nd Gen). If I'm right, it's more advanced than Artis 12 Pro. Or is it?
2) Connection to Mac / PC requires 3 ports: HDMI and 2 x USB. Is that true? Now that I look my work PC laptop, won't be even possible, because HDMI port is on the other end of the laptop than USB ports.
3) This model doesn't have touch screen. If I'm working with Photoshop, for example, how do I zoom in/out while working?
Do you have models with touch screen feature?
I hope you'll see this question in time... :)
Thank you!

I see that my question is cut. I must have missed the maximum length of text. I also asked about touch screen (which this version doesn\'t have) and how do I zoom in/out while working with Photoshop, for example.
