Shopping for a premium drawing tablet can be tricky, but we've found a deal on one of our favourites which might make the decision a little easier for artists. The Xencelabs Pen Display 16 is usually available to purchase in two options, Essential or as a bundle. But right now, you can get the Xencelabs Pen Display 16 Essentials with a free Quick Keys Remote (worth $99.99) at no extra cost.

One of the best drawing tablets available for digital artists, this pen display has a 15.6-inch 4K OLED screen, and comes with two pressure-sensitive pens, a pen case, pen cilps, extra nibs, all the cables you need, plus a fancy carrying case. This is usually all you get with the $999 Essentials package, but the deal above throws in the Xencelabs Quick Keys Remote too – which is a must-have for creating shortcuts to boost productivity.
