![]() The tablet itself seems to be made of the same plastics/materials as every other tablet I've ever seen. The holder that the pen sits in when you're not using it is on a bit of a tilt and can easily be knocked over since the pen is fairly heavy with the battery in it as well, so that's something to look out for (I'll probably just swap it out with one of the circular Wacom ones). I normally just use the keyboard shortcut for whatever tool I need. I'm not sure if this is due to a patent by a competitor or just a cost thing, but for me it's not a big deal as I don't think I've ever actually used it with pens that did have one. One thing that did surprise me, however is that the pen has no "eraser" on the back, which I've never seen before. While this setup was a bit light on padding, the actual package they shipped it in had a very thick layer of air cushions surrounding the box and everything seemed to be in great condition. Inside the box I found the tablet suspended on a white cardboard layout with the driver disc, pen, spare pen tips, AAA battery, and the pen holder. The tablet arrived in a nicely branded box with some information on the key features of the tablet, OS requirements, and general info. So, how is the build quality? It's simple, but not bad. The company that makes it, Monoprice, is a discount electronics retailer that brands many of it's own competitive products - and while you're not going to see the same build quality and attention to detail (think Yongnuo vs Canon), many including myself have found that this tablet offers a lot more than one would expect considering the price. Okay, so the name could use a bit of work, but at 62.5 square inches of touch surface area for just under $50, this tablet has more drawing room than other tablets at 7x the cost, and shares many similar features. ![]()
