Do you recomnend Krita for Macbook Air M1? I got the Ugee U1600 and see some bugs on TeohOnTech channel with drivers for macOS. For now I work on Windows but my laptop is 2012 model with i5 3th, so it going laggy with filters layers

I was testing linux (mint and ubuntu) but I can’t make it work properly (ugee u1600)

Any advice will being received

I would go for a Windows or Linux machine, you will get more for your money, with Apple you throw away 20% minimum for buying a Logo!
I personally don’t like Ugee, but maybe they’ve gotten better. If I had the money, I would go for Wacom, then Huion or XP-Pen. But that is my taste.

UGEE, XPPen, Xencelabs all belong to the same company

That fact may be interesting for some, yes, but my statement is simply an expression of my feeling about Ugee and the experiences made here in support.
Compare their manuals with those of XP-Pen or Xencelabs which belong to the same company, it seems that they are handled differently and Ugee seems to be the most “unpopular” part in this company, then comes XP-Pen and then Xencelabs. At least that’s the impression given by the manuals. Is that because of the market segment they are targeting, so Ugee at the lower end and XP in the middle and Xencelabs at the beginning of high quality?

UGEE is facing the domestic market in China. XP is facing overseas markets. Xencelabs is a high-end brand that emerged a few years ago.

Well I have this love/hate relationship with Ugee, because the drivers was a total disaster, it has improve better but sometimes I got some bugs, with wacom this never happened to me. But the wacom is more expensive.
