Update 1/23/2022
At last! The software bugs for OneNote have been fixed! I am currently running the Gaomon Tablet software version v14.8.133.1259 for Windows 10 PC. After a Microsoft update, the issues went away! I don't know who to thank for this, but I do know that this now makes this tablet the best value on the market for students looking to go paperless!
Back to 5 stars for this product!
These things really last through heavy use and being transported in my backpack 5 times a week for college (Assuming you protect the cable port like I did). I am still using the same tablet I originally purchased on 08/24/2020. I have added one additional photo to show its current state with Version 2 of the support BRKT after several years of use.
Update 11/1/2021
Gaomon tablet has MAJOR issues with OneNote 2016, OneNote for windows 10, AND OneNote 2019 (updates come from office 2019 license)
I have been working with Microsoft on this issue for some time now, and it all keeps coming back to the Gaomon user interface.
Issues are as follows:
– pen sensitivity does not work/ rarely works
– using eraser can erase multiple things accidently
– after using eraser, cannot reselect pen or anything else, must click out of window and then click on pen
– vertical spacing tool does not work at all
All these problems disappear once you QUIT/ EXIT/CLOSE the Gaomon application that runs in the background (you can pull it up by pressing ctrl + alt + h by default). But then you have a new host of problems: absolutely ZERO buttons or shortcuts will work.
Gaomon needs to keep up with its driver/software to enable its compatibility with OneNote applications. I highly recommended this tablet to people who are college students like me in engineering. I am grateful for the seller and manufacturer for making a good hardware product. Now we just need Gaomon to make a driver/ application that works with OneNote!
Please please please Make an update for your M10k pro tablet so I can use it in peace. Also, it would be nice if updates were automatic. -1 star for now, happy to give it back once a software update is released!
Update 8/23/2021
New Software from Gaomon for the M10K Pro was released a while back, I just discovered it today by accident. It would be nice if their software had an auto update option as the newer user interface is more user friendly and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Great tablet for note taking, very responsive still and highly recommend printing a Guard as I have shown in my photos.
Update 5/12/2021
I printed a guard bracket to protect the plug. Even if you don't drop the unit on its plug and destroy the charging port like I did on my first tablet (which I simply soldered on a new one to repair it), the same problem of intermittent connectivity will occur over time unless you are only ever using the tablet on a flat surface. I used PETG for the print material.
If you are like me and need to hold the tablet on your lap to write (shown in the photo where my laptop sits on my desk), then you will want to make or buy a guard for this.
If I get enough helpful votes, I might start selling these guard brackets on amazon for like $15 S&H included.

I use this daily for school. I have used it for 1yr now with the only issue being progressively worse intermittent connectivity if the micro USB plug isn't at just the right angle. I just bought a new replacement plug from Sunguy here on amazon with the reversible micro USB to 45° USB A and haven't had any connectivity issues since.
Original review:
Love the tablet. Writes well, easy to setup and use. Don't drop the tablet on the charging port with the plug plugged in or you will be ordering a new unit like I am right now. I had my last one for 1yr. Works very well, virtually no brush lag or issues with accuracy.
