Ugee UG-1910B: Entry-Level Drawing Monitor with Large 19-Inch Screen
The Ugee UG-1910B is a basic pen drawing monitor for digital artists that offers good build quality and comes with two rechargeable pens with 2048 levels of pressure sensitivity.
By the way, this model can work as a solid, less expensive alternative to the Wacom tablets from the Cintiq series. For instance, the Wacom Cintiq Pro 16 and the Ugee UG-1910B have similar features and similar screen sizes, but the UG-1910B is much cheaper and won't make you pay extra bucks for the brand name.
Setup
The tablet is extremely easy to install, so I was able to proceed to test right away. So, firstly I plugged the UG-1910B into a wall outlet and then I connected it to my computer via the VGA port to pull up the image to the monitor (there is no HDMI port, but you can use a VGA-to-HDMI adapter if you need). After that, I connected the tablet to the PC via the USB cord. All the necessary cables (VGA, USB, and power cable) are included.
There were no issues with the Ugee UG-1910B driver setup. You can either use an included CD or download it from the Ugee official website. When the installation process is completed, just click on the driver's icon and perform the necessary settings.
Generally, you have to plug in 3 cables, install the driver, and that's all. However, the absence of an HDMI port is disappointing, so I rate the tablet at 9/10 in this category.
Features
So, how does the tablet perform? Drawing on this model actually feels nice. The pressure sensitivity is just right, so I was able to get both thick and thin lines with no hassle. The included drawing glove appears to be very useful since the tablet's surface is very sleek and my hand kept on sticking to it until I put the glove on.
However, the color transmission could be more accurate. Also, the colors lose their brightness when viewed at an angle. Therefore, I recommend checking the colors of your drawing on the PC's/phone's screen to make sure that everything looks as you planned.
The Ugee UG-1910B P50S pen digital painting drawing tablet has a very glossy screen and there is no anti-reflection coating, so it's better to avoid direct light hitting the screen. However, one may also get a matte screen protector and the problem will be solved.
The resolution (1440 x 900) isn't bad, it's just average, so the image may look pixelated at times. The screen is so bright out of the box that may cause an eye strain if you work with it for several hours straight. Moreover, even when I set the brightness level to the minimum possible level, I still felt like it's too bright.
The tablet has quite a lot of issues with its performance, so I give it 6/10.
Design
The Ugee UG-1910B P50S has 19 inches in diagonal and its active area measures 15.8 x 10 inches. It doesn't have the hotkeys (only 5 control buttons on the bottom bezel).
The tilt angle of the stand that is attached to the tablet can be adjusted. It brings convenience when drawing but also makes it difficult to get to the inputs as they are located on the back (however, the stand can be detached). So, there you will see DVI, VGA, Power, and USB ports.
The design is generally satisfying and gets 7/10.
Conclusion
Of course, after this Ugee UG-1910B review, you won't consider this drawing monitor as a close-to-perfect option: the screen is not Full HD, there are issues with colors and brightness, etc. However, thanks to its simplicity, built-in adjustable stand, and good pressure sensitivity, this model makes the process of art creation easier.
