The ratio of price and quality is very pleasing, I will repeat the purchase.

I switched to it after a bunch of tried and tested tablets, including screens.
When the old Bamboo lost ground, I bought an Intuos Draw M (which was basically a rebranded newer Bamboo). It was. I can't say better than its predecessor, especially for the price of 14k. A strange oak tablet, on which it was unpleasant to draw.
After some disappointment in wakome, I decided to try out the Chinese. Two Huion Kamvas 16s simply broke down (the second one was sent under warranty to replace the first one, but suffered the same fate). True, the quality of the screen there was such that I used these tablets more like boards, looking not at them, but at the monitor.
Then there was another screen monitor XP-Pen Artist 24 Pro, and it was relatively normal, but it could not come to terms with insufficiently good color reproduction (the scourge of most screen people, however, because of which I decided to return to the boards).
Then XP-Pen Deco 03. For the price, a good regular board. The comparison is not particularly correct due to the difference in price, but words cannot express how oaky it is compared to this wakom. I can't speak for the more expensive Chinese boards, but it's just heaven and earth here.

So. I can't argue with the fact that this is an overprice and that there are annoying moments (tips,  them! ), But it's still the best tablet I've had so far. I am ready to forgive him a lot just for the feeling of work.

Pros

- The feeling of drawing. All lines are incredibly smooth, precise, obedient. Very close to the feel of Apple Pencil, especially in programs with slightly better line stabilization like SAI or Clip Studio Paint. - Assembly. With the tablet itself, or with the donut-stand, you can quite successfully hammer in nails, judging by the abundance of metal in the design. - Ergonomics of the pen. It's just really nice to hold in your hand, and the brush doesn't get tired as much as with other styluses I've tried. - The design can be written down rather in pluses, probably. Very simple and concise, without colorful inserts and dots, they say, I am a serious working tool.

Cons

- The tablet is very rough for some reason. In the first months of use, pen nibs wear out at the speed of light. The first one I erased almost completely in 4 (! ) days of intensive drawing (the result is in the photo). Then I changed it once a week, twice a month, once a month, finally, until I wiped the tablet to smoothness and it stopped erasing the tips like sandpaper. The latter has been holding on for a couple of months (a reason to be proud, yeah). - Drivers in places randomly reset settings or simply do not work until reboot, cannot be ated, or some other tricks are thrown out. However, all these phenomena are not frequent for me, it does not irritate me much. - Touch wheel. Physical would be more convenient, IMHO.
