So, for this review to help your purchase, you need to check these boxes.
– Do you plan to use the full area of this tablet? (if not, look at something like the H430, it's cheaper, and smaller. have used it before, works about the same.)
– Are you on Windows? (7, 8, 10, 11, all works about the same)
– Are you ok with the hassle of downloading alternate drivers?
If you answered yes to these questions, then this review is for you. Let's get into it.
So, all things considered, this thing is great! Pen pressure works, full area is great, very responsive, just all in all a good price to performance tablet. Now, thats about all good things I have to say. In to the nitty gritty we go…
The drivers suck, and they suck bad. Things have obviously been google translated and it shows. It "works" well enough for people just giving things a try, but if you are sticking with this tablet in the long run, the driver experience just isn't there. A fix for this is OpenTabletDriver. Primarily, this is used by osu! players, however it has been optimized for most drawing softwares out of the box. Paint.net, Photoshop, Krita, you name it. But – this isn't an advertisement on the fratures of OpenTabletDriver, so do your own research and see if it's right for you.
Moving along, the nibs wear down easily compared to other tablets. It isn't exactly the worst problem, as it still takes a LONG time to get through them all, but having to pay 20$ every so often (maybe about a year with heavy use in my experience) it isnt really ideal. But, hey, at least it comes with replacements… (cough cough gaomon cough cough)
Also – for the osu! players out there. Just get the H430. I promise you, you will not be using the full area of this tablet. Thank me later.
Anyways, I'll stop writing now. Hopefully this helps someone!
