It's amazing for the price

This is an amazing tablet for the price. I'll start off by saying this is my first tablet, but I've been playing around with a friend's Wacom Bamboo. A house. Based on this little experience and what I thought about Huion so far, here are the pros and cons of the PROS: β€’ Price! This tablet compares very favorably to Wacom at this size and pressure sensitivity. I didn't realize the size of the 11" until I opened the package. To put this in perspective, the drawing area is about an inch longer than a sheet of standard paper and maybe half an inch less wide. β€’ The sensitivity is over 8000 levels, so as you can imagine it's pretty outstanding. β€’ Additional tips. And a pen holder! I love that it comes with 8 extra nibs and they all fit in the pen holder. It added organization and professionalism. The holder has a weighted base to prevent it from tipping over when a pen is in it, and the holder also has a mechanism for removing worn tips. It's just great. The keyboard shortcuts seem handy, but since this is my first tablet I didn't think to do anything with it. However, I really like the shortcut keys on the handle. DISADVANTAGES: β€’ as already mentioned: drivers. Actually it's not that big of a setback given the low price and the fact that it works when it works, but I often have an issue where the pressure sensitivity doesn't work under load. Sometimes the fix is as simple as opening the huion tablet app, sometimes I need to reinstall the drivers. horror β€’ speed. After painting with it for a while it wasn't as noticeable as it was at first, but there is a slight lag in hand movement and cursor movement around the screen. There are also times when it skips when I use it as a mouse, but when I draw it doesn't skip yet. (I'm using it with a Lenovo Ideapad 330 with an Intel i5 processor on Krita) β€’ When the pen is plugged in, as someone else said, you cannot place it on the pen holder. That's a little strange, if not entirely true. Notes: β€’ It has a very smooth, slightly papery surface in the drawing area. β€’ My laptop is 17.3 inches and I can put my tablet on the keyboard and it's almost the same width. β€’ I think it easily leaves little traces of grease on your hands. The box it comes in is quite cute, all in its fancy black box and all neatly wrapped. It also seemed pretty soft. β€’ There is a USB port for your computer to connect wirelessly and there is no space to store it in the box so I'm afraid of losing it, make sure you either leave it plugged into your computer or one have a safe place for it. If I have any thoughts while continuing to use I will update
