The Contact
XP-Pen contacted Best Gift Listings by our Advertise and Work with Us Page – which is open to new advertisers.
We listed the terms of engagement very clear on this page so that they can see. We do not compromise opinion in our review and they knew that. So, we proceed in business.
A representative from XP-Pen was interested in advertising their Artist Pro 13.3 (Holiday Edition). As it is the season, we felt it appropriate to help them do so by review their product – Which by the way makes for a great gift for digital artists!
So after all formalities, we got our hands on their Artist Pro 13.3 Graphic/Drawing Tablet and this is the review!

The tablet was very anticipated by Best Gift Listings. We gave the tablet to a digital artist on our team, who was very thrilled so these are here impressions.
First impressions of “the physicals” | XP-Pen Review
The packaging came in pristine quality even though it had traveled over 8,359 miles from Hong Kong to us (bestgiftlistings) here in the US of A.
Upon opening it looked very very clean!
We received the holiday edition package which comes with some extra goodies. Here’s the list.
Fenix Jigsaw Puzzle
Art Print Poster
Shortcut Sticker Pack
Tons of Extra Free Line Artworks
You can get all these too if you order the holiday edition. If you don’t order the holiday edition, that’s okay, you can still order the “regular” edition.
However, these extra goodies will not be in the package but you would still be getting a pretty freaking awesome deal regardless!
So what else is in the XP-Pen Artist 13.3 Pro Box?
Well, whether or not you get you get this Christmas deal or not, you would still get an awesome package for your artist!
Here’s what you’ll be getting when you along with the “Christmas special” extra. (ps. this is the regular package AKA the main package).
XP-Pen Review – More Details
Here’s a break down of some even more specs, in case you are curious.
The Artist 13.3 Pro also supports tilt function in Photoshop, Painter, Krita, Gimp which is incredible because it allows you to add dimensions to your art.
It also has a full time laminated screen and no parallax which is nice so you don’t feel displaced as you draw. Then screen cursor is directly beneath the pen tip!
It also very responsive and good for slower (more controlled lines) and has a higher color coverage, up to 88% NTSC (≥123% sRGB ). However, please note your artist’s results might vary slightly if they are in extreme environments.
One of the coolest functionalities are on the left side edge; the buttons!
The Artist 13.3 Pro comes with 8 “express buttons” and a dial. You can change the different functionalities of the buttons and assign an array of functions to the wheel in order to better streamline your work.
So, if you are wondering; “Should I get the Artist 13.3 Pro?”, the answer is easy: YES! And considering the fact that they are having a huge sale right now on their tablets, it’s a double YES for us to help you save on gifts.
Why? Because this is such a functionally versatile tool that is really awesome for anyone with a digital art interest. This includes novices to professionals. The device is not hard to get acclimated to, no matter who you are.
It was great working with it. We have had the tablet in our possession for a little over a week now and it is still functioning like it was delivered today. Honestly, it looks like this one is still around for a bit.
You can put away your computer each day because the tablet takes seconds to put back together.
The wires were a bit tricky to figure out but there’s a clear guide that you can check out. Also, you can look at our image below.
Once you set up the tablet with your computer (using the guide in the box, which comes in so many languages 🙂 by the way), the workflow is magical because you can draw for hours on end.
The process is truly immersive and beautiful, so much so that someone who doesn’t have experience in the digital art space can acclimate in a matter of minutes.
Our review of the XP-Pen’s Artist 13.3 Pro was very serious because we want to make sure that every potential gift ideas that we are presenting to you are top-notch in the market.
