Bit dramatic for a little water, mate?

Honestly, I paid $60 for a first-gen iPad stylus from a dollar store once and got exactly what I deserved. That tablet probably cost like twelve cents to make in a factory somewhere in Shenzhen. You really think a no-name brand is gonna have drivers that last longer than a couple days? Ngl, it sounds like you expected too much from something that didn't even have a proper website or customer support. The pen pressure issue is annoying sure, but you can still sketch with a mouse, it's just slower. People act like their whole art career is ruined cause a cheap tool breaks, but you just need to save up for something with a real warranty like a Huion or an XP-Pen.

Gotta disagree on the half inch drop though, that sounds like a big jump for one cut. Usually just a quarter inch makes the difference without throwing off the whole shape.
