A lot breaks with graphics tablets

H640P I've had it for over two years. It's a great tablet and I've never had any compatibility issues, but I've probably changed the stylus 2-3 times a year. I probably only get about 400 hours of pen use. For a $50-60 tablet, spending $20 on a stylus is a lot of money, especially when it needs to be replaced as often as it does. He usually starts off with sensitivity when he decides he doesn't want to trace my strokes and I end up with stuttering, jagged lines. Then the buttons no longer work. So I know I don't accidentally smash the pen on the tablet like the Hulk did. At least the replacement pen works right out of the box. There is no pairing or connection process. I think I get what I pay for when I buy a budget product and I would recommend a tablet for beginners and occasional users, but if you're a hobbyist or professional you should probably spend a little more for a tablet with a quality stylus.

Pros
  • Graphics tablets
Cons
  • Not as thick as other models
