Don't buy this - broke after a month

EDIT: Somehow my tablet decided to stop working today. No matter what I do, the screen shows no signal. All my drivers are up to date and I haven't touched the cables since I installed them. Very disappointing. What's even worse is that for some reason I have to arrange my return directly through Huion and not through Revane. I probably just got a lemon, but I'm definitely not going to be fooled twice. If you really have to take the risk, you can read my original four star review below to see what you can get. But you can also get a lemon. Keep in mind. ----- After drawing on a tablet without a screen for more than ten years, I decided that I could no longer bear the separation of looking away from where my hands were drawing and watching many screen- Tablet video reviews made me buy this one. It's been a world of difference and I finally really enjoy drawing. The stylus is nice and light, and the screen is, with rare exceptions, sensitive and durable. I mainly paint with Clip Studio Paint and it was easy to use for all my purposes. a wrong stroke that would leave a thin pencil mark on the paper is not always translated. Another issue, and perhaps the biggest, is the backlight blurring around the edges of the tablet. No matter how dim I make the brightness I can see it, especially if I make the image completely black. I used the company's customer service chat and they said it was fine but if it gets worse I can exchange it under warranty. I was told the warranty is one year from date of purchase, even though the registration on their website says otherwise. I really hope that I'm not being fooled. Finally, the picture isn't the sharpest and looks more like 720p than 1080p. The wired connection can be a bit strange. It includes a universal cable that connects to two USB ports and one HDMI port, but you may only need to use one USB port if your computer can provide enough power to the tablet, like mine does. Strange that there's only one cable hanging around, but at least that saves me one port. There's also a single USB-C cable option, but the cable for that isn't included in the box. All in all, thanks to this tablet, I fell in love with drawing again. If you're like me and want to make the switch from a screenless tablet but don't have a lot of cash, this is a good way to go.
