GAOMON PD1161 Pen Display 4.5

The PD1161 Pen Display is GAOMONs cheapest and most successful pen display allowing you to write or draw on a tablet just like you would a piece of paper, the 178° viewing angle allows you to find a comfortable angle, making long periods of use more comfortably. The screen features a 1920 x 1080 resolution and 11.6inch work area the 72% NTSC (About 100% sRGB) colour gamut and 262k(6bit) display colours allow creations to be fully displayed and show off your talents.

It has 1000:1 contrast ratio with 16.7 million colour display, the AG Protect Film has been applied to the screen already. There are eight adjustable shortcut keys to meet your work needs, easy adjustment and diversified functions, there are five menu keys on the left side of the display, Auto/+ /- /Menu and Power and its here you can adjust the colour, brightness, contrast, etc.

Thanks to the 8192 levels of pressure sensitivity, the lines you draw will appear with different widths and saturation, the harder you press the darker and wider the line will become. Additionally, the 266PPS report rate allow users to capture every input immediately like you are drawing on paper. The GAOMON pen can also recognise a tilted brush, and therefore, angles ranging from minus 60 to 60 degrees applied to the digital pen can all be detected and rendered on the screen as intended.

It is compatible with our GMS01 and GMS02 brackets and the GMS01 or GMS02 Stand (sold separately), which are not only stable, durable and stylish, but also makes outside creations more convenient. It is worth noting the PD1161 must be connected to a computer for use and is compatible with both macOS and Windows, supporting various mainstream drawing and designing software.

The PD1161 is a good choose for an entry level pen display, excellent value for money with high end specs in exchange for a couple hundred quid. RRP £205
