Have over 5 years of experience in digital art as a hobby-
-and have been using this one for over a week now through Krita, but I have some pros and cons.Bluetooth / WiredPro: obviously the Bluetooth is great over wired since you don't have to deal with the USB cable wrapping around stuff, or getting in the way if you sit relaxed (legs up, leaning back, standing, etc), and you can lay it down wherever without yanking a cord from its socket.My previous tablet had a wire issue where it would 'disconnect' if you moved it around too much, so I'd have to wait the 5 seconds or so for it to 'reconnect' itself before using my pen again - but that small headache was remedied with this tablet's Bluetooth.Con: its battery lasts about 2-3 days of heavy use, which isn't a bad thing since you can just charge it as you use it / charge it when you aren't using it, so just a heads up.Build / UsePro: thin, light, and compact but the quality is great - the aesthetic is really nice, it's the entire reason it caught my eye - it's smaller than my previous one allowing me to maneuver more with it such as I stated previously, allowing me to lean back with it in my lap, or kick my legs up without the size or wires getting in the way.The wheel is a huge boon - I can now rotate the canvas and zoom in/out without fiddling with buttons to do it - as a digital artist, I heavily recommend you get a pen tablet/display that has a wheel for whatever tablet you decide to go with.(Now if we can get a trackball in a pen tablet for moving around the canvas)Con: the texture on its face is definitely wearing on the nib already and the sensitivity had to be adjusted to my taste, which led to me testing pressure and changing settings; that in itself caused the face of the tablet to become marred in the week of using it, whereas my other pen tablet (Huion 1060Plus) didn't have that problem - 5 years and never had to change the nib due to its glossy face texture and more sensitive pen settings - its face didn't start having problems until around this year when the gloss began to peel from use, but the nib still looks almost new.Results: I actually love this thing and my only gripe is the marred surface and nib issue so far, though those could be user problems, but based on the price, if you are just getting into digital art, you might want to try something cheaper first just to make sure this medium is something you can see yourself doing.But for the seasoned digital artists, the tablet is worth it in my opinion if you are looking for something compact and ready at any moment at the press of a button.

Wonderful starter tablet
It works as designed and if you are unsure how much you'll use it this is a great place to start. If you already know you'll use it often I would suggest one that has a little better build quality and features. That's not to say this is built poorly, either, it really does work wonderfully.

Arrived EARLY and Already making use with new project
The media could not be loaded. After reading several reviews on the product and corresponded with one of the reps in regards to my Mac Retina (older version but new selling model which also easily can hookup to an HMDI without an adapter) latest OS update to Higher Sierra. My current tablet was no longer compatible as well as some of the (open source) drawing software I had already installed, rather frustrating. After a few more correspondence, the rep's confidence of their product and researching about the product and reviewed on the how-to use and navigate on youtube, I decided to purchase. Yes, there is a bonus, folks, in small print, but it is there, you have an option in either getting a one-finger glove, two finger glove (which I selected) OR replacement pens with your one-time purchase of ONE Gaomon tablet.Item arrived 3 days earlier than anticipated which was rather exciting! Open the shipping box and the product box was neatly intact and unblemished. All materials were accounted and compared to the quick guide listing. Easy to read instructions and downloading the driver was simple.Downloaded and installed the Mac (with now 64-processor) Charged everything that night and tested in the morning. I selected three of my Mac sketching apps, Inkist Lite, Lux Draw, Tayasui Sketches, Mischief-Free and Krita (I videoed when demonstrating the pen and how well the compatible of the software without having to purchase the most expensive) and each was responded without a hitch!A well invested purchase! Also love the fact that the tablet is thin enough for transport! How cool is that?

GREAT TABLET W/ JUST A FEW CONS
I can't believe I haven't left a review here yet. If you're looking for an affordable graphics drawing tablet that works just as well as any professional, this is the one for you. This Gaomon tablet comes with the tablet itself, it's pen, 2 getting started pamphlets, and a small kit to replace your pen nibs(the thing at the end of the pen). Its packaged very tightly so nothing moves around or shakes but is easy to take out of its packaging. The set up is extremely easy and it is even easier to set-up your shortcut buttons. When it comes to drawing I've noticed there is a slight lag between the pen and the computer but it's not anything so strong that it would affect your artwork or annoy you. The tablet is pretty big(10x6), which makes it pretty comfortable to draw on/with. This tablet does not include a disc w/ drawing software but I found that Microsoft Paint worked just fine. If you don't own a Microsoft MANY other free drawing software can be found on the internet. This Tablet also works with photoshop and to replace your mouse on your computer.IMAGE DOES NOT APPEAR ON TABLET, WHAT IS DRAWN ON THE TABLET SHOWS UP ON THE COMPUTER WHEN PLUGGED IN CORRECTLY(EDIT): it's been about a month and my Gaomon is still like brand new although at times I will try to draw a curved line and will appear as a straight line on the computer/laptop. Although drawing a few number eight's fixes the problem in a jiffy. In addition, I've also added some simple/ amateur drawings/sketches I've made since.

Overall use
- it’s absolutely great on photoshop, but as a mouse it’s terrible. Too much latency. I do wish it was mat black, but hay you get the quality you pay for. I hoped I could’ve gotten more value. for the little money I had, but it’s all good.
