I have been stalking the two for the last few months, here is my findings http://luneder.deviantart.com/journal/Yiynova-and-Bosto-standings-403754822

Keep in mind I haven't used either and am going by various facebook comments and reviews.

Bosto actually tries to delete all bad reviews when they see them, and there are a lot. While it took a linch mob to make them change their warranty policy so that they will now refund people that are sending the broken tablets back they went all out to cover up that there was an issue and most of the people involved in the linch mob were banned from their facebook including me that just commented about it. I have little trust for bosto at this point and because of how often I check their facebook I can tell you for every 1 that seems to work there are 3-4 that do not work right, also the ones that do work do have problems just that those people don't mind that the casing is crappy and the buttons on the side of the pen sometimes stop working.

Sounds like Frenden will be reviewing the kingtee 22hd sometime so it is best to see how that turns out

did you make an account just to comment this? haha i think i saw you too at conceptart,same comment. yeah i came to their facebook page, loads of people asking their 22hd order, looks like they have some problems with their customer service.

yeah I did lol, the problem I have with them is they have a tablet that can work, but the odds of getting one that works is slim. I just read a comment posted a few hours ago where the screen didn't even work.

They don't actually put the product up for sale on any site that users can do reviews on like amazon because if they did there is no doubt the thing would be under 3 stars.

I know it may seem like I have a vendetta against them but they are in a way getting away with covering up the truth.

Just got a yiynova delivered yesterday and so far it's so much easier to use than the wacom intuos I was using. I never tried the bosto so I dont know how it compares.

Just got a 24inch XP-PEN Artist 24 Pro drawing tablet monitor . I've spent the last few hours running it through some test and so far I love it. The drivers gave me a bit of a headache but I worked through it. everything else; TV Paint, Adobe Animate, Photoshop, Sketchbook have all worked beautifully.
I think its easy to use and works amazingly. I'd recommend getting one .
