My quest to have a good™ desk setup continues with getting the Huion Kamvas Pro 13 and immediately getting super bummed that the screen is anti-glare etched glass.

That rainbow effect you see is not the typical lcd moiré when seen through a camera but is just a messy noise pattern caused by the anti-glare effect. For the past couple non-Pro models of the Kamvas, they've just applied a screen protector that did this too and you could peel it off if you didn't want the anti-glare but with the Pro 13/16 models it's just... there. The glass is etched so you can't remove it. The screen just looks like this, forever.

Incredibly annoyed that an otherwise incredibly good tablet is just unusable because the screen looks like shit. Even for beginners I wouldn't recommend this, what good is using a display tablet if have to squint and stare intently to make sure the colors or lines look right?? Nightmare. Just want a thing that works!!

I don't like Procreate (I'm a shortcut freak and do a lot of design work which it's entirely incapable of), I'd have to upgrade my iPad (which starts at $1299CAD), I don't like the Apple Pencil as much as I like my Huion pen, pushing out a file I can then bring into Photoshop is more annoying/difficult through an iPad, etc
