TOPIC | Screened Tablets (Huion/Artisul/etc?)
Hello! I was wondering if anyone had experience with Artisul (specifically D13) or Huion (specifically Kamvas GT-191) or other screened tablets.

I'm possibly looking for a new screened drawing tablet but have a tight budget (hopefully <$300, so I'll probably buy used). I was wondering what the nitpicky things of these tablets were. If you have other suggestions also let me know!

In turn, here are nitpicky things of tablets I have used.

Wacom Intuos (non screened) - driver problems common where you'd have to restart the computer or reinstall drivers; nibs wore down ridiculously fast; cables weren't very durable

XP-Pen 12 - towards the end of its warranty lots of screen problems (flickering, flashing, white gradient around the edge of the screen, could possibly be a cord issue but seems unlikely based on the way it acts); extra parts such as screen protectors and replacement cords are $20 each; bad customer support (never got an answer after emailing support twice, probably better results with phone calls); also very nitpicky but can't feel the buttons on the side of the pen so you have to actually look to use them

I actually really love my xp-pen but I'm hesitant to buy from them again because of the customer support lol... I probably will try to buy a new cord anyhow but I'm still interested in looking at other tablet brands.
