So I own several tablets and have found that honestly they are all pretty garbage for osu in terms of the surfaces, these tablets were meant to be used for drawing so the materials provide extra resisitance which is good for artists but bad for osu players. I can't count how many pen nibs I have gone through. So has anyone had any experience with tablets that offer a much smoother surface? The alternative is to play like cookiezi and hold your pen above the tablet but honestly I just have not found much success with this method and would just prefer a tablet that my pen can easily glide over.

Tablets I own:
Wacom Intuos Draw CTL490DB

Huion H610

P.S. I have more tablets but these are the only ones I use and sometimes switch between for osu!

If you want a surface you can glide on, I have hear that buying a tablet cover makes your pen glide easier. Here are some links to popular tablet cover stores:

That is a genius idea and so much cheaper than the alternative of buying a new tablet. Thank you for the reply and the links! :D
Have you had any personal experience with any of these tablet covers?

i actually have a tablet cover, and it reduces drag and is overall very smooth (i got one from yangu)

There is a technique that mouse modders use to get their mousepad more slippier, is to use pledge on the plastic mousepads, pledge is a Multi-surface Antistatic product (also called Furniture Polish), you can get some to your local supermarket or on internet. Pledge is the most common brand but you can find other that do the same thing. Why i talk about this on a tablet post? Its because you can actually use pledge on tablet surfaces. I use this since 2 weeks and my tablet surface is 3x slippery

tests on mousepads :

I can do a video to show, and maybe do a new post on forum and reddit.
