Do these also work as regular tablets with apps and web browsing? Or are these just glorified art books?

No they will not. Unsure if you're joking.
Incase you are not joking:
If you're into photo editing or drawing on a PC though, these are fun.

are these things good about not recognizing a resting palm on it when drawing and holding the pen at an angle naturally? I used to love to sketch and I do some photo editing in LR and PS these days and wondering if any of these may allow me to do more precise editing as well as get back into sketching. Any recommendation on which one (like the med vs pro pen small)?

I wasn't joking, thanks for the reply. Going to buy the one for $58 and give it a shot.

How are these with Lightroom? Does this increase workflow or just give a little more control?

Depends. The main benefit of using tablets is for greater control when you edit your photos, either in Lightroom or Photoshop. It will, however, increase your editing speed and accuracy compared to using a mouse.

Improving your workflow would be based more on your grading and general editing process. You would use this tablet for great control to fine-tune the final edit. Or any tablet for that matter. I just bought a Huion H610 Pro tablet for editing as well, for a little less than $50.

I tried using a Wacom tablet previously for photo editing, but I'm so used to the mouse that I found it really really difficult. I know people say to put the mouse away and just force yourself to learn via the tablet.

These sound like pretty good prices...might try it again.

I don't have a Wacom but I do own the large monoprice version. Take a bit to get used to but the added control when editing photos is so nice. Also you can map shortcuts , adjust pen pressure,etc.

I've always been curious about these. Is the transition to not seeing where your pen strokes are in relation to looking to the screen easy to get used to versus using a pen on paper where you will see where the marks will be?

Just to give my opinion, go with the medium. It's a really nice size. Small is TOO small.

It definitely takes some getting used to but even as a beginner you will get far better results with this over a mouse

Anyone have one of these and use it for art as opposed to just photo editing? My daughter is really into art and she's been considering learning to draw digitally as well. Also, how does this compare to a Surface laptop as far as abilities? I have a Surface that I've offered to let my daughter use but I think she's just afraid she might damage it so I thought this might be a good alternative for her to learn on that supports real drawing capabilities.
