I wasn't thinking too much about buying one of these until seeing it suggested by Amazon. Figured it wouldn't hurt to get considering I was about to buy a Cintiq 13HD Touch and being left handed has accustomed me to resting my hand on my drawing surface.
My initial reaction was to buy the Huion Artist Glove for Drawing Tablet (1 Unit of Free Size, Good for Right Hand or Left Hand) – Cura CR-01 but settled on this one for the slightly reduced price. Other than the name, it seems nearly identical, down to the brown envelope it came packaged in.
Main concerns were enhancing hand rejection when drawing and that my hand wouldn't rub against the screen and catch it, as well as making sure it wouldn't feel too uncomfortable to outweigh the benefits. Fortunately, this seems to handle the latter issue well. Even with a matte screen, my palm is dragged a bit by strokes at times. The glove removes that issue for the most part.
It's not the best at hand rejection, however; lifting the pen up tends to trigger the touch features at times. Fortunately, the Cintiq does a fairly good job at it already to make it an issue, but it might be something to take into considering with other touch drawing surfaces.
It's also fairly comfortable. Not the best fitting unfortunately (a smidge oversized), especially around the palm, but it works without disturbing much. My hand fills out a medium glove well so this seems to be built for slightly larger hands.
Overall, it's a decent glove. My only main qualm is the material being a bit weak around the seams (the corners near the finger loosened at a minor tug) but for the price I can't fault it. Not a bad get for an on screen drawing tablet.
