# Standard drawing tablet sizes

## Overview

There is no accepted industry standard set of sizes of names for size categories. Seeing a product with "LARGE" or "MEDIUM" or "SMALL" does not mean anything consistent across brands and often not even within brands.

To make it easier to discuss tablet sizes, based on an analysis of several hundred drawing tablets and using Wacom's sizing as a guideline, I have established these size categories.

I define these categories:

* TINY
* SMALL
* MEDIUM
* LARGE
* EXTRA LARGE

To reflect the reality that pen tablets and pen displays are very different sizing, there are one set of sizes for pen tablets and another for pen displays. For example a TINY pen display is about the same as a SMALL pen tablet.

## Pen tablet sizes

| Category    | Diagonal Size metric | Diagonal size imperial |
| ----------- | -------------------- | ---------------------- |
| TINY        | 6 cm to 16 cm        | 2" to 6"               |
| SMALL       | 16 cm to 24 cm       | 6" to 9"               |
| MEDIUM      | 24 cm to 36 cm       | 9" to 14"              |
| LARGE       | 36 cm to 50cm        | 14" to 20"             |
| EXTRA LARGE | 50 cm to 74 cm       | 20" to 29"             |

NOTES:

* To keep the ranges using whole numbers, the metric and imperial size ranges are close but are not the exact same sizes

## Pen display sizes

| Category    | Diagonal Size metric | Diagonal size imperial |
| ----------- | -------------------- | ---------------------- |
| TINY        | 11 cm to 13 cm       | 11" to 13"             |
| SMALL       | 28 cm to 39 cm       | 13"m to 15"            |
| MEDIUM      | 38 cm to 50 cm       | 15" to 20"             |
| LARGE       | 50 cm to 76 cm       | 20" to 30"             |
| EXTRA LARGE | 76 cm to 86 cm       | 30" to 34"             |

NOTES:

* To keep the ranges using whole numbers, the metric and imperial size ranges are close but are not the exact same sizes
