My art tablet pen nub wore flat in 3 weeks, then the screen started ghosting
I was mid-way through a client commission in Austin last Tuesday when the lines started lagging behind my strokes, and after swapping to the spare nub I had left, I realized the ghosting was actually a cracked digitizer from leaning on the screen, has anyone else had a tablet fail this fast on them?

...and it honestly feels like everything now is built to last just past the return window, you know? I mean, my last phone's charging port gave out at like 13 months, right after the warranty. My buddy's wireless mouse started double-clicking at 8 months and it wasn't even a cheap one. It's like they design these things knowing exactly when you'll get attached and then they just quit. So yeah, three weeks is rough and that cracked digitizer is brutal for a client deadline, but I'm honestly not shocked anymore. That's the thing, the whole industry shifted to planned obsolescence and the art tablet market is no different.
