Read if you're left-handed

If you're left-handed like me and need to buy a DIVIDER because you only have one HDMI port on your graphics card, you won't be able to see the screen to rotate on your tablet. This means that custom buttons (which you'll likely use all the time) are on the wrong side and not conveniently usable by your second hand. The left-handed instructions only apply if your graphics card has enough HDMI ports to connect your tablet directly to it (instead of using an HDMI splitter). They should explain it in plain English but they don't. If they cared about being able to use their left-handed products properly, I think adding a "fold-out display" would be relatively easy. a setting that affects the tablet and not the main display. Am I attacking? Maybe small. But it will definitely negatively impact my workflow, which I can't afford to do. So I'll keep using my old tablet until GAOMON (hopefully one day) decides to team up and implement this simple little solution. Until then, this new tablet will gather dust because I can't let my workflow be compromised by using sub-par hardware. It's a shame because otherwise it seems like a good buy. Unless this issue affects you, I really don't see anything that would discourage anyone from buying it. Although I've never painted mine. everything is upside down.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • High price
