Save better on iPad Pro

I have an iPad Pro. I used to use a third party app to turn my iPad into a drawing tablet. However, it was a free version, so it lacked features I thought I needed. Also, my iPad drains very quickly. I decided I didn't want to pay an annual fee to access features, so I figured buying a Wacom tablet with a display would solve my problem. I bought it pretty quick after researching other competitors and finding that many of them have flaws and kinks that I just didn't want to deal with. In addition, Wacom is a reliable company. Firstly, I didn't think it would be that difficult without the shortcut keys, but trying to draw without the shortcut keys to work with it is inconvenient. Yes, I can put my hands on the keyboard, but being so used to using Wacom Intuos tablets and my iPad with keyboard shortcuts and fingertips, the Wacom One is actually a major drawback. Second, there are so many cables here. . It's not for those who don't like noise in cables. Third, despite all the cables, there can still be lag. When I copy my MacBook to Wacom One, it also changes the screen resolution on my MacBook, which was inconvenient. I didn't have to do this with an iPad. Fourth, I feel much more comfortable using the iPad Pro as a tablet. as Wacom One. The iPad connects almost instantly without connecting it to my MacBook via USB (it does over Wi-Fi). No cable clutter and you're done. I have almost no freezes with my iPad! The first tablet I ever had was the Wacom Intuos4 and then the Wacom Intuos Draw and I prefer it to the Wacom One because of the buttons/wheels and the fact that I've definitely never had any lag issues with them. I give a lot of credit to Wacom for finally listening to consumers and taking notice of their competitors and releasing this Wacom One, which is half the price of their Cintiq line. But I sincerely think it would be worth postponing the purchase and saving up for an iPad. Or just buy a refurbished or used iPad. You will enjoy the drawing process much better.
