Chris do you have bamboo pen ink maybe? I think that pen will work better then the hi pen 3…. You should buy it, you can test on many tablet as well.
Guys.. So you think if I remove the screen protector the pen accuracy will be better? Touch will be better?
Let me know your opinion..

Thanks for the user review, is that the glass and not a screen protector?

In my opinion that is a screen protector. My Corebook also has the screen protector on it and it has that effect. The weird thing is that the device had a screen protector for the screen protector, so that might throw some people off.
As for the screen bleed, with the lights on, the test at http://www.lightbleedtest.com/ looks completely fine. I can’t see any screen bleed. However, in a completely dark room, I also see a modest amount of backlight bleed. This is an IPS screen so some amount of backlight bleed must be expected. There are thousands of posts about backlight bleed for monitors, with most people agreeing that most of the time, there’s nothing that can be done about it.
I don’t have a lot of different devices to compare it to, and never noticed this problem before. However, I just looked at my Asus 15″ laptop in complete dark, and it has less backlight bleed but a lot more IPS glow. Similarly, my Huawei phone has much less backlight bleed. But the Chuwi Corebook has much blacker black than either of those two. I’d say the backlight bleed is partly due to the blacker black screen, but now that I know it’s there, it’s slightly annoying. If I press firmly at the edge of the bezel near where the backlight bleed is visible, the amount of bleed decreases significantly.

Thanks, I suspected as much, as the two layers will throw people off as they remove the first layer and then think that they are looking at glass. The IPS bleed and glow is very common, every panel will have it to some degree when fully laminated.
