2021 HUION KAMVAS 16 Graphics Drawing Tablet with Full-Laminated Screen Anti-Glare 10 Express Keys Android Support Battery-Free Stylus 8192 Pen Pressure Tilt Adjustable Stand - 15.6 Inch Pen Display

I love this thing.A little about me for context: I’m not an artist, and never have been, but I’m trying to learn how to draw.To that end, I don’t think I could have gotten a better tool for the job than this tablet. From the very moment I plugged it in and drew a stick figure in Krita (free art program) I felt completely at home. The side buttons on the screen and the two buttons on the pen were mapped almost perfectly for Krita out of the box. I changed the bottom button to ctrl+Z because it was set at shift+ctrl+z, but that’s it. I’ve been drawing with all default settings otherwise.I have no idea if this is good value for the money in comparison to other tablets, or how this stacks up against other art tablets or the myriad of other Huion tablets, cause this is the only one I’ve bought. But it’s fantastic and I don’t think I’ll be buying another any time soon (when I do, it’ll probably be a 2k resolution tablet).Some things you should know:-the screen on this can scratch. You should consider ordering a screen protector, and weigh the potential for increasing parallax against how afraid you are of scratching the tablet. It’ll only scratch if you let a nib (tip) on the pen wear a little unevenly, though. I let a nib wear unevenly to were it had a nice edge and put a noticeable scratch into the screen.-if you don’t want to buy a screen protector, then you should consider getting the felt nibs for this pen (517) that have much less of a chance to scratch the screen. Some people like the feel of them better too. Personally I don’t mind either way.-the spare nibs that come with the kit are stored inside of the pen holder. The top of it twists off and reveals a compartment on the inside containing the nibs and the removal tool.-if you’re plugging into a desktop computer with this thing, you’re probably going to need a female to male HDMI extender and two female to male USB extenders. And an open HDMI port on your graphics card. If you’re plugging in to a laptop, you’re probably fine just using the included USB C cable.

I've had this particular tablet for years (2022). I genuinely can't sing it's praises enough!I don't write reviews until I know it's worth it.Since I've had this tablet for so long I can without a doubt tell people, it's worth it!Both my cats and I have dropped or knocked this thing off its stand several times.It has it's battle scars but unlike another tablet this thing is still working! Even then the scratches aren't that deep and don't effect my drawing.The pressure sensitivity is still on point. Buttons still work. I've only had to change out the nib a few times.I honestly believe I will sooner put a hole in this thing before it stops working all together.This is a wonderful tablet for those who are deep in the digital drawing world and don't want to drop an arm and a leg on a tablet.

Had it a week now but Ive been "unable" to just dive into it, theres things i didnt know i should keep in mind. Apologies for the length this might come out to but it sucks to get a new toy and then hardly get to play with it properly right away. So bare with me, im doing this for you lol. I will have an actual review as well at the end.YOU NEED TO CONSIDER CABLE LENGTH AND YOUR SETUP. are you using laptop or desktop, the provided cables are maybe 4ft, limiting how comfortably you can be set up if your rig isnt right next to you. highly recommend having a HDMI male to female extension cable and USB male to female extension cable if your rig is on the floor or further off to the side.*dont get a usb-c to usb-c extension as it wont fit the port on the display, youre welcome*CONNECTIVITY- if you have multiple monitors-i.e. i have a 1080ti with 3 display ports and 1 HDMI, though i have a TV in my setup so the HDMI on my graphics card is taken. You CAN use the onboard HDMI port if you enable a setting in bios just google it if you go that route, however when i went into settings there are some color settings and "Display" settings that were greyed out (not selectable), thinking this was maybe cus of the onboard HDMI somehow, I ordered a HDMI to Display Port adapter. Connecting to display port did not solve that issue, I havent figured that out yet as I just stopped to make this review, sorry. Out of box the colors look nice, though i do need to look more into why I cant access all the settings.Lastly, the stand....its nice, it works, fairly sturdy, but if you wanted to move the unit as a whole or even turn it a little, you would have to pick up the display and then the stand separately, its awkward to try and move them both cus the stand doesnt lock into place and its not wide enough to grab both from the sides. also if you wanted to draw vertically for whatever reason, this stand wont support it in that position and theres no room for the cable so you can only go vertical 1 way even if it could. this isnt a huge deal honestly but it is an improvable situation for anyone who might be bothered by it.For this im looking into laptop stand, and even considering a "monitor swivel"-THE REVIEW-This is my first step into becoming a digital artist outside of Sketchbook on my Note 9 so I dont have any comparison knowledge but...ive been wanting one for a long time and have been researching on and off for the past 3 or 4 yrs.I learned Huion is the much more affordable 2nd best just as good as Wacom, and that a display vs. one of the "blind pads" is all preference, but the "blind pads" allow you to be more ergonomically positioned while you work...and now that i have one i understand. This is a fantastic tool I cant wait to master. It feels worth the money, does not feel cheap, and the experience of the little bit of doodling ive been able to do so far was more pleasing than i imagined, they say things in reviews like "natural feel" "simulates paper surface" and you try to understand but you just cant fully grasp it til you try it, its nice. Really nice.out of box the settings seem acceptable but what do I know, and i need to figure out how to access ALL the settings. The software is simplistic and binding keys/shortcuts to the displays buttons is easy, though using the buttons isnt as cool as id hoped, i still like to use the keyboard, but better to have and not need then need and not have. The pen is accurate, i keep pushing one of the buttons on accident i wish they werent as easy to click as they are but to be fair it may be cus im used to holding my mechanical pencil with my finger resting on the button, the pencil i use has the button in the same place and pencil artists often rotate the utensil.I wouldnt call these things "cons" or downsides, but just what youre used to kinda things, and i have yet to get used to this new tool.OVERALL if you feel this might help you become a better artist, you owe it to yourself to find out, dont waste time, find out. Invest in yourself, you can always resell it if you find out its not what you expected but FIND OUT so you can move forward. I got it so I wouldnt have any more excuses, i have everything i need now to find my success as an artist. I thought having something fancy would reignite something in me to work harder or just be able to create more opportunities for exposure to other things so i can figure out what i want to do.Now I feel like I can, im glad i did. Hope this helps.Best of wishes on your journey, cheers.i got no discounts or payment for this review it is real and honest im not a Huion fanboy this is not a fake review.

Excellent product, but the friction between the pen and the screen sometimes creates a really annoying sound.

i got it on sale for two hundred bucks during black friday. started out with a drawing pad and i will say, it is way faster using a screen tablet and i live it. its been like 6 months since i first got it. i really like it, im enjoying the buttons too that it has for shortcuts. color accuracy was very good too, shows up the same as on my laptop. i mulled over the setup even though it was kind of complicated for me to figure out, i just had to go to settings and my display settings and change a setting in there. (on macos)

Easy to set up and great for an extra screen or digital drawing. Excellent quality and color.
