The Deleter Xp-Pen is a decent, long lasting, durable pen tablet. It's served me for about 4 years now. The only things you need to take care of for this pen is to not push the pen down too hard, you can wear down the spring and pressure sensitivity becomes worse over time treating it like that. The pen takes wear faster than the tablet itself. The tablet has buttons on the top that the cursor will snap to when you roll over them with your stylus, this gets irritating when you're drawing in full screen and you cannot change the buttons to just anything either. They're all preset to the F1~F6 keys. The cord is really durable. It comes built into the tablet as the standard 2.0 usb cable. Your USB must be able to provide power through the usb to use the tablet, it's most common with computers these days. The cable comes out of the top right corner of the tablet. There's 4 felt tabs on the bottom to keep it from moving around too much on a smooth surface. An indication light in the upper right blinks when it's active and stays glowing when the pen is in range of it's sensing area. Then pen moves when you hover over the tablet by a few centimeters and acts as a mouse. The drawing area of your tablet is basically your screen. And while it may take a while to get used to not looking where you're drawing you can still see what it's doing on your screen. Tapping the tablet once will click, double tapping is like double clicking, you can drag your icons and such, and there's two buttons on the stylus already. One double clicks and the other is a right click. Unlike allot of tablets it comes with a thick vellum protective sheet built into the top of it that you can lift up and clean if it collects dust. you can put sketches under the vellum and supposedly use it for referencing or tracing. 110$ is a little bit much for this tablet if you look at the cons. But it has a great big drawing space when compared to the Wacom tablets for the same price. After about 4 or 5 years you will only really need to replace the Stylus and maybe the battery once or twice. Oh yes, check the battery for corrosion every 6 months, though, I do this with all my battery powered electronics.
