What we like about GAOMON PD1621

  • High-resolution 4K display (3840x2160) provides excellent visual clarity and detail for fine linework.
  • Full-laminated screen and anti-glare glass minimize parallax and offer a paper-like drawing texture.
  • 10-point finger touch support allows for intuitive gestures like zooming and canvas rotation.
  • Durable build quality featuring high-quality aluminum alloy that aids in heat dissipation.
  • Responsive, battery-free pen (AP51) with 8192 levels of pressure and 60-degree tilt support.
  • Excellent value compared to premium competitors, often cited as professional-grade at a budget-friendly price.

What we don't like about GAOMON PD1621

  • The included pen tips (nibs) can wear down quickly with heavy use, sometimes within 3-4 weeks.
  • Lack of a physical eraser on the end of the pen, requiring software remapping or manual tool switching.
  • No auto-rotation sensor, requiring manual display setting changes when switching between landscape and portrait modes.
  • Occasional driver-related issues, such as pen drift after the computer wakes from sleep mode on certain systems.
  • Screen brightness can sometimes be difficult to adjust or may appear too dark if connectivity is not set up correctly.
  • Connectivity can be cumbersome as it may require specific high-feature cables or direct connection to a GPU rather than a motherboard.

Verdict

The GAOMON PD1621 is a professional-grade 15.6-inch pen display featuring a 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) resolution and a 105% NTSC wide color gamut for high-fidelity visual detail. Its fully laminated screen is constructed with anti-glare etched glass and supports 10-finger capacitive multi-touch gestures, while the included AP51 battery-free stylus offers 8,192 levels of pressure sensitivity, 5080 LPI resolution, and ±60° tilt support. Main advantages include its ultra-thin 6.9mm aluminum alloy body for superior portability and heat dissipation, alongside broad compatibility with Windows, macOS, and Android devices. However, potential drawbacks include occasional pen drift on certain systems after waking from sleep and a relatively low screen brightness of 180 cd/m², which may affect visibility in very brightly lit environments.
