Strengths

HP does a factory calibration that was pretty good out of the box.
The pen experience is superb, it's so close to genuine Wacom products including the software control being the same.
The display is just lovely, with very wide color gamut and decent contrast ratio.
The pen driver is exactly like a dark themed version of Wacom Cintiq and mobile studio pro control panel complete with pen settings for pressure curves and per app settings.
It's great for Illustrator and other programs where sometimes you find like other pens are still not as well supported.
HP quick keys are basically Express keys on each side, so lefty righty it's all good.
The build quality is tanky, making it a unique piece in its class.
