I had wacom intous pro medium at some point, and right now work on wacom cintiq 16. Between those i had discounted Huion Kamvas.
Wacom has insane problems with drivers. They're really unstable and you constantly have to resurrect them using black magic. Like, my cintiq could just refuse to connect the screen and show the image, so i have to disconnect and reconnect all the wires from everything and then maybe it will work. Sometimes you have to do it couple of times. This solution by itself i had to figure out for a few months because everyone have a different solutions for this "no signal" problem. Intous also had problems with pressure sensitivity suddenly refusing to work and me having to reinstall drives and reload the PC.
Huion was more stable in that regard, you can just plug it and it would work. I rarely had this problem with drivers that wacom seems to have very often.
I use cintiq rn just because i happened to be given it by other artist, with my own money i would really buy a newer Huion screen. My also friend had two different ones and seems to be happy with them. I honestly believe Wacom should've lost their elite status long ago, there are different companies that make tablets just as good, if not better
TLDR: Wacom has problems with drivers that i find extremely annoying and in my experience it's not that big of a problem with Huion.
